Lol, the lack of self-awareness with this comment. |
We haven’t really seen this side of her. For the last several weeks we have been inundated with Taylor. She has overexposed herself and with that, her true nature is showing. The honeymoon is over. |
Why are you dissing Lucy and Juilen, by not mentioning them with Phoebe? |
It is 100% like she needs them to be successful. Left to her own devices, her music is boring AF. I recently watched he Tiny Desk Concert, which she did during her Lover promo, and she made a big deal about playing the songs "as she wrote them" -- stripped down and acoustic. Well guess what, if that's what that album sounded like, no one would buy it. She also rambles a ton in that concert, explaining the music in a way that honestly makes it sound less interesting, and she just comes off as extremely pretentious and way too impressed with herself. Usually TDCs are kind of humanizing for artists, especially the ones you usually see with a lot of production. Usually I walk away from them thinking "wow, when you pack their personality and talent into that small space, you can see how they are not regular people." I watched Taylors and she seemed like a regular person wearing expensive clothes and a lot of makeup, singing some okay songs and playing serviceably on the guitar and piano. She absolutely needs these people around her who make her seem larger than life. She is a marketing and production creation and would never have reached this level without the people who built up her sound and image. |
100% I can command a 100-person presentation like a boss, and I probably seem confident to those attending, but I'm terribly awkward. I have no idea how to make small talk. I don't always pick up on the right social cues when chatting with someone. I have a dreadful habit of smiling when someone is telling me a story, even if it's horrible/tragic, because I'm so freaking ecstatic on the inside that someone likes me enough to want to tell me something. That stems from being such an odd, weird kid that I had like 1 friend all through high school. |
I think you're living a fantasy and projecting what you want to be happening. As for the artistic perspective, again, her collaboration with Dessner and others is lending her serious gravitas in that room and in the marketplace. |
I think she’s the first to understand this |
Yep, act like she's got a touch of 'tism. |
Taylor means well but her intentions don't translate that in her actions. It was insensitive to bring Lana up. The poor girl has been snubbed for years. She didnt have time to process the loss before being dragged up on stage to celebrate her friend's win. Her immaturity is staggering |
Phoebe won three Grammys. Lucy and Juilen won two. Olivia is a little plagiarist. I have mixed feelings about her because of the plagiarism, but I do like that she's trying to bring rock 'n roll back. |
I think anti-hero was one of my least favorite songs on that album. She had everyone with writing credits from the album up there, including Lana. I do agree that Lana didn’t want to go up there though I don’t think Taylor meant anything bad by it. She was just losing her mind. I’m sure she’s not happy with how it went for a few reasons but what can you do? I think many of these people are socially awkward. They are artists. |
Was TS album announced during her speech? Or was it later on Instagram? |
I agree but maybe Taylor was thinking about Lana sitting at the table by herself, which she would have been. |
during her speech which is weird. |
Her fans LOVE that stuff, they live for it. |
