Zuckerberg told his daughter that being like Taylor Swift is “not available to you.”
“We took her to a Taylor Swift concert and she was like, ‘You know Dad, I kind of want to be like Taylor Swift when I grow up,’” Zuckerberg shared. “I was like, ‘But you can’t. That’s not available to you.’”The father-of-three didn’t tell podcast hosts Ben Gilbert and David Rosenthal why professional singing at that level isn’t “available” to his daughter, August, but did say that during their talk, she eventually changed her mind and said she wanted to be like herself.

“She thought about it and she’s like, ‘alright when I grow up I want people to want to be like August Chan Zuckerberg,’” the father-of-three shared.

Coincidentally, his middle child has the same name as Swift’s track “August” on her Grammy-nominated album “Folklore.”

The Meta CEO has been a fan and even supporter of Swift – despite not wanting his daughter to become a billionaire tortured poet.

He attended The Eras Tour in Santa Clara with his wife Priscilla and their daughters back in July 2023 and even posted a photo wearing friendship bracelets and gemstones on his face with the caption “Life of a girl dad.”

For the iconic concert, he reportedly forked out big bucks to get his family a box suite for the show. The suite at Santa Clara’s Levi’s Stadium reportedly can cost up to $50,000 and can hold 22 people.

Social media has had a mixed reaction to his comments about the “Lover” singer on the podcast.

“Sure, Taylor Swift is a once in twenty lifetimes musical genius but one does not simply quash dreams like that,” said one user on Reddit.

“He sent his daughter into her reputation era. Hope she creates all the music she wants to,” another wrote.

“I’m sure the kid with plenty of it will recover right fine,” someone commented on the social media platform.

Zuckerburg and his wife share three daughters: Maxima, 8, August, 6, and Aureila, 13 months.

The topic came up on the podcast when he discussed advice he would give to founders today in 2024. He encouraged people to “do something you care about,” learn as quickly as you can and to “learn from other people’s successes and failures but do your own thing.”
