Taylor Swift. I actually like her music. I also understand that hardcore fans will exist for every artist. But Swifties take it to another level. I’m lowkey impressed by that fandom, but don’t get it.
I like her music when I hear it, but don’t seek it out. From what I gather she really speaks to women, they get her in ways I (male) would not relate to. She strikes me as moral and doesn’t have skeletons in the closet or any weird behavior one would expect from someone that rich and famous. As dad would have said, “That’s a stand-up woman!”
She knows how to sell herself, which I find an admirable and difficult trait. I feel I’m 10x more confident than the people that post around here and she’s 100x more confident that I. And it’s not bullshit, unearned confidence a la Senior Musk.
And who doesn’t love how she fucked the record companies over at their own game? Knowing her own worth changed the industry.
Doesn’t hurt that she’s almost ethereally pretty. :)
You know how people who are into Q-Anon and Pizza-gate look at strange symbols and odd numerology to find strange connections to prove whatever crazy thing they believe. Taylor Swift like to release albums, singles and tours using favorite numbers, hidden symbols and hints in her other songs. So it fits that section of the internet who love to analyze to death things to find clues. Since she is so prolific there is enough material for her to hide these Easter eggs to generate endless conspiracies about when things are released. Since she does drop hints it makes sense that people love to find them. Its like a puzzle-game mixed with a conspiracy theory mixed with a “viral marketing campaign” all in one. And instead of unraveling the fabric of democracy she release music people like.
I just saw Black Joe Lewis play last night and I know for a fact he’s a much better guitarist. But she packs stadiums and only 50 people were at his show. maybe it’s because he doesn’t show off his thighs?
I think you’re generalizing her way too much here. Her fanbase is mostly girls. They aren’t coming to see her thighs. She may not be the greatest guitarist in the world but she’s a great song writer and singer. Her Eras tour was also incredibly well done.
If she was 275 lb nobody would purchase her music. My point is not to body shame, but yeah … Don’t think for a second her look and mystique isn’t half of what is being sold to kids.
“my point isn’t to body shame” as you body shame lmao. Maybe, and this might be crazy, she writes good music. I haven’t looked at a single picture of Taylor’s thighs before buying all her music.

Where exactly did I body shame lmao
You’re intentionally missing the point because you don’t want to give up ground on your specious argument.
I fucking hate people like you. Intentionally stupid for reasons that are beyond my understanding.
Lol! The music industry has fuck all to do with music…!
