COLUMBUS, Ind. — In a “fearless” move, a Columbus teen has decided to ask Miss Americana herself to prom.
Columbus Signature Academy New Tech senior Jose Trinidad Noriega, 17, has created a promposal video for the one and only Taylor Swift in the hopes of landing the prom date of his wildest dreams.
In the video, entitled “Go To Prom With Me Taylor Swift- (Jose’s Version),” Jose dances, holds up promposal signs, and shows off his Swift merch. He said that a friend helped him make the video.
The teen sings his own lyrics to an instrumental of Swift’s classic “You Belong With Me,” inviting her to go with him to the Bartholomew Consolidated School Corp. prom next month and maybe also stop in for a latté at Lucabe Coffee Co.
The coffee shop is just one of the Columbus locations featured in the video. It also includes the Crump Theatre, Mill Race Park and the Donner Center, showing that Jose, like Swift, “knows places.”
Jose has shared the video on social media, contacted radio stations and has also been trying to get the word out to Swift’s management team via Twitter. The video has more than 900 views, so hopefully, this is “how you get the girl,” as Swift would say.
“I’d love her to at least see it,” he said.
