Taylor Swift has been in the spotlight and on people mind’s recently, but saying her name in the Rice family’s home may cost you.
Dana Rice, a realtor in the Bethseda, Maryland and Washington, D.C. area, has gone viral, garnering over 9.8 million views on Instagram, after capturing the comical moment her husband created a “Taylor Swift jar.”
The mom of three boys has considered herself to be a fan of the pop star, but didn’t find a place in the “Swiftie” club until recently, Dana Rice told Fox News Digital.

“I started seeing reports and things from other people and other industries talking about her from a business perspective — from a force of nature perspective when she first started this tour,” Rice said.
“It just sort of arrived in my consciousness and became something that I wanted to look into because I’m a business person and I wanted to learn,” she added.
Her admiration for Swift catapulted when she got her hands on a coveted ticket to the Eras tour.

One morning, Rice was in the kitchen talking with her husband, Dan Rice, and realized he was on the verge of creating the jar — but unbeknownst to her, she was the target.
“Without fanfare, without notice, I just came around the corner and I asked him ‘What are you doing?’” she recalled.
The video captured Rice’s genuine reaction to seeing her very own “Taylor Swift Jar” which requires her to pay a quarter anytime she mentions the A-list celeb — or her new beau, Travis Kelce.

“When I came around the corner, not only did he have the jar, but he had rolls of quarters, so he set me up with the rolls of quarters and the jar,” the Maryland resident added.
The jar is a spin on the commonly used “swear jar” — which requires anyone to pay a fee to the jar after using profanity in an effort to discourage the use of foul language.
Rice says this video perfectly encompasses her husband’s humor.
