    White people. I say this as a white person. Pretty much every second white women loves Taylor Swift, even where I live. Apparently Taylor also alienated a ton of her black fans by dating and writing half an album about a racist guy that went on a cumtown podcast and said racist things. That’s what I understand from browsing social media and listening to the first half of her latest album.

    Honestly listening to Taylor Swift’s latest album was weird. She had a whole song dedicated to calling out the section of her fans that told her to stop dating the racist guy. That level of parasocial behaviour on such a big pop record weirded me out. But I guess that’s why she’s popular, people want to be invested in the Taylorverse™®

      How many songs/albums does she have about people she dated? I know that’s the most relatable thing to write lyrics about but if like 15 dudes in a row have done you wrong maybe take a look in the mirror?

        She’s made songs referencing that lol. Blank Space is the most popular from her self reflection songs, although it’s supposedly satirizing those sentiments lol. It’s a banger though

        That quarterback is going to disappear off the face of earth like most of the previous boyfriends after breaking up

        i googled it and she’s mentioned 12, which isn’t crazy for a conventionally attractive woman in her mid 30s who’s been famous for like, two decades. and as far as ive heard she’s on good terms with more than a few

      She had a beautiful song called The Lakes which was ruined by her lyrics referencing twitter beef lol
