The cracks were always there...
When Taylor released ME! after Reputation, it was the sign of her mediocrity and inability to come up with good lyrics. The fact that she got away with that kids bop and had to remove that one line. I was shocked when I heard Me! for the first time. And I had the same reaction listening to Life of a Showgirl. Utter disbelief! She could have had a boring melody with decent lyrics, but no.
The countdown, the easter egging. All for that disaster single Me! Her reaction to the Lover album name being noticed straightaway was hilarious. If you think people won't notice a bright neon sign in your music video, how dumb do you think everyone is.
She's always been so stupid, I'm realising it now.
She made folklore because she had extra time during the pandemic and definitely plagiarised the lyrics from Joe or Aaron who were both too polite to say anything. Her entire folklore era has been inspired by Joe, the movies he probably recommended, the books beside his bed (lol) and after the criticism of Lover she wanted to prove herself.
I still can't believe how Jack Antonoff and Joe let her release such a shitty single like Me!
Now with no real muse, since Travis obviously doesn't read or think, she has no real inspiration. Now it all has to come from her, like Showgirl 🤣
She needs to go back to school, get some degrees and a real Education. She's regressing so bad, it's painful to witness in real time.
When I watch her old interviews and the current NYT video, I cant believe it's the same person. She used to be semi articulate when she was younger. Now it's just gibberish word salad with filler words.
The mask has slipped officially for me. No longer a fan.
Feel so disappointed.
