What was once a harmonious relationship between America’s favorite soft drink and America’s sweetheart has now gone flat. Swift, who has been featured in Coca-Cola’s advertisements for nearly a decade, sipping on Diet Coke while dropping chart-topping singles, is now finding herself on the wrong side of the corporate partnership game. And, as it turns out, even the most successful pop star in the world can’t escape the consequences of mixing soda with politics.
The fallout began almost immediately after Taylor Swift posted her endorsement of Kamala Harris on social media, praising the Vice President as a “role model” and the “perfect leader for the future of America.” While many of Swift’s fans rallied behind her, Coca-Cola’s boardroom didn’t pop the champagne in celebration. Instead, the company’s executives were left scrambling, and not to find a new ad jingle, but to save their brand from being caught in the political crossfire.
“We’ve enjoyed a long and successful relationship with Taylor Swift, but we cannot in good conscience continue to partner with her after her recent political endorsements,” said a spokesperson for Coca-Cola. “Our brand is about unity, refreshment, and quenching thirst—not fueling political divides. Taylor’s decision to endorse a political candidate doesn’t align with Coca-Cola’s commitment to staying out of the political arena. We just sell soda.”
