Not only is she not #1, but she also only has two (!) albums on this list of 10. She’s made how many albums recently (including the trash versions) that didn’t make this list?

Let’s see & compare. Since the oldest album on here is from 2019, that’s as far as I’ll go for a fair comparison.

Adele’s recent album from 2021 tops the list & that’s the only one she’s released since 2019

Billie has 2/3 studio albums on the list from 2021 & 2024

Beyoncé has 1 album from 2022 but she’s only released 2 albums since 2019

Ariana has 4 albums. These are all the 4 albums she’s released in the past 7 years with one of her albums as the oldest one

Taylor has 2/6 albums not even including the trash versions. She’s put out 6 albums in the past 7 years. With the trash version, that’s 10 albums! 2/10!

The chart manipulation queen is fuming at this list.

I just ordered these two days ago & they arrived! My first rem beauty products & I absolutely love them! I got these in particular for their holiday scents & they didn’t disappoint, what infectious smells. It’s only the end of September & these already make me want to embrace the holidays. Can’t wait to see what else is in store for this rem beauty holiday lineup.

This song is my favorite out of her whole discography, such a bop! Love that it’s accompanied this feat!

She absolutely crushed this with the big band/choir soul feel! Her range & expressions are so on point & phenomenal! It’s such a standout in her discography.

A bonus track that fans demanded she release is surpassing her more popular songs in daily streams as well! Yesterday it did about 600k daily streams, more than the likes of what I want & you broke me first. A non-single cinematic masterpiece is doing all this with no music video & little promotion behind it!! This is how you know a song is that good! 🙌👏🔥

For me it’s Cody (step by step), Randy (home improvement) & Zack (saved by the bell)

A week ago, I made a post on here & someone mentioned in the comments to look up the story of two sisters, Mieka (16) & Freya (10) Pokarier. In February 2024, they were traveling on an 11 day road trip with their mother, Kim Litchfield, to Melbourne to see the Eras Tour when their vehicle collided with a semi-trailer. I found key articles linked at the bottom & some important information I’ll point out about why I loathe Taylor & her team even more now for completely disregarding these sisters & what happened to them.

Quotes from godmother Karleigh Fox:
When they heard Taylor Swift was touring, it was all that [Mieka and Freya] could talk about. They had five family members online, refreshing pages for up to eight hours to get tickets.

Mieka had a close relationship with her siblings and would make friendship bracelets for her loved ones

We have just had Taylor on repeat for the last 10 years. How her music changed these girls, like empowered them, gave them self-confidence, gave them hope, especially through COVID times.

The girls were "super fans"

When we opened the iPad, it was heartbreaking. Mieka's cat's name is Mr Perfectly Fine, which is a song of Taylor's.

Mieka had created a playlist just for the trip and would have been listening to it in the moments before the crash.

During & after the crash:
Mieka was in the front passenger seat & Freya was in the back seat.

Mieka was killed at the scene & Freya went into a coma. Their mother Kim had minor injuries. Freya had brain surgery, blood transfusions, brain swelling, organ damage, a broken leg & a suspected shoulder fracture.

Police officers laid flowers at the scene of the crash while an ongoing investigation was underway by them.
"These flowers were laid on behalf of all attending emergency services as well as members of the public who valiantly assisted at a very confronting scene," NSW Police said on Facebook.

Family and friends have set up an online fundraiser to help the Queensland family with costs, such as accommodation in Sydney.
It has so far gained more than $30,000. Fox said Swifties nationwide had been reaching out to the family with their support.

***There is NO information on any of the four articles I’ve read below about Taylor or her team reaching out to help with the fundraiser or even mentioning the girls. Just like with Ana, swifties are the ones who donated to help a grieving family during the Eras Tour. But NO word from the billionaire who’s supposed to care about her fans like her public image is curated to expect.

She swept the Vienna threats under the rug like they were nothing, lied about when Ana died then posed with her grieving family & when a fan actually died before her show, she still said & did nothing. Not even visiting or sending anything to Freya in the hospital. And she loves doing anything PR related to make her look good. Speaking of, I did find in an article linked below stating that she of course donated to Foodbank Victoria before her first Melbourne concert & get this…she donated $US100,000 ($153,000) to the family of Lisa Lopez-Galvan, the victim of a mass shooting that occurred during the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl parade. Absolutely nothing for Taylor superfans but a local foodbank, a tragedy relating to the chiefs & she’s all over it for PR purposes. Don’t get me wrong, what happened to Lisa was tragic & right in front of her poor family. Absolutely heartbreaking to think about. Even though I’m glad her family was financially supported, it’s telling how her intentions are chiefs PR over her own fans again. Taylor didn’t even want to reschedule a Brazilian show to the same day Travis was playing because iirc she didn’t want to miss it & their families would meet. She prioritized a chiefs game over the livelihood of her own fans because of a dangerous heatwave & the government rescheduled instead of her. The eras tour doc doesn’t even mention any of these events. Though as an American, I’m surprised & glad to see that USA Today had an article on the sisters.

I hope all this continues to expose Taylor’s true colors, especially to reformed swfties like myself. I can’t find out what happened to Freya but may Mieka rest peacefully along with Ana & Lisa.

Either my lenticular CD or signed CD is about to ship! Or maybe they ship together? Anyone else get any shipping notification already? I’m so excited for petal!! This is my first Ari album release!

Short but to the point. It matches what one fan said about how it’s all her albums married together or something along those lines.

Found this old bracket challenge from access Hollywood on Kelly & filled it out for fun. Some of these were very hard to choose from.

1st photo-Taylor’s post dedicated to the Brazilian shows. I feel that these dedication posts are somewhat manufactured. She doesn’t explore the culture or lifestyle of the places she goes worldwide & rumor has it, she didn’t even stay at a hotel while in Brazil. Yet, she exaggerates what coming to Brazil means to her. No mention of the Brazilian swifties effort to get the Christ the redeemer statue to welcome her. No mention of Ana. She called them “magical crowds” & addressed the people that came to see her shows with nothing but positivity of course. What complete disrespect to the crowd that attended the show Ana died. Besides her passing, there were fans who got horrible burns from the metal floor her team put while other fans were becoming physically sick & fainting right in front of her. She didn’t do anything but continue the show. Fans were traumatized because of what happened to them. The next day, she canceled the show last minute when fans stepped inside after waiting in the sun & fans arranged for water to be distributed while outside. If I was a fan who had to endure all that, I’d feel disgusted by a post like this.

2nd photo-the 24 hour story she made about Ana’s passing. The only time she addressed about it. Just look at how much she talks about herself vs Ana (who isn’t even mentioned by name). Admitting she’s not going to speak about it on stage is off putting. She didn’t even allow the fans to give a moment of silence for her. Mentioning her family & friends when she didn’t even help pay for the funeral or bringing her body back to her family is infuriating. Instead, she took a photo with Ana’s loved ones when she invited them to her concert. That was also when she was forced to say/do something because people caught onto how silent she was. At the same time, she fed Travis PR stories in the US. Ana was so excited to see Taylor & fly on a plane for the first time. She’s not an industry threat or anything like that. Just a fan who sadly got treated as an afterthought by an artist whose persona is manufactured to care about her fans’ safety. And she publicly lied about when Ana passed. This story has aged so badly.

3rd photo-Taylor’s statement about Vienna sandwiched in between the end of the European tour & London shows. She finally mentioned it after fans waited for a statement from her. She only mentions Vienna once compared to London’s 3 times. Just like with Ana, she’s admitting she’ll remain silent about Vienna. Continuing to use silence as a BS excuse to not speak about something that affects her fans’ safety. Her concert was targeted because it was a large gathering of people, not because she or swifties were specifically targeted. But a negative portion of the eras tour that affected her fans’ safety continued to be swept under the rug & positive London press took the majority of the post. Taylor really has no excuse when you think about the highlighted part. Ariana didn’t (and still doesn’t) remain silent about Manchester or political issues & she also continued the dangerous woman tour after Manchester. No Taylor, silence is not showing restraint.

4th photo-Taylor changed the release day of the eras tour film last minute. This is crucial because she not only screwed over fans who thought they were seeing it release day, but also movie theater workers. I remember seeing movie theater workers on Reddit stating good luck to find people to work last minute. She was inconsiderate of her fans excitement & these employees livelihoods. Reminds me of her chaotic cluster f*** of a wedding where she also messed with the livelihood of the people who just happened to live around MSG. Putting people’s lives & safety at risk because the police had to babysit her comedic, vapid wedding where she insulted her guests with her tier system.

I can’t wait!! Love that she did the vinyl unboxing video! Makes me even more impatient to listen to the album & receive my CDs 😭

I’m so excited! This is my first new album release as a fan & the snippets that have been released so far sound amazing! I wonder what she’ll have in store for us leading up to the release date.
