Greta Gorgue has raked in more than a billion dollars. The global box office making the first US film directed by one woman to reach a billion dollar mark. It was, it was, you know, watching the Taylor Swift thing happening. There is a real power to women spending like a young girl spending and the love of someone like Taylor Swift.
