Is this a wish of hers outlined in a song?

Not to be engaged in a garden, but as place she goes to when she can't deal with life.

I hate it here so I will go to secret gardens in my mind
People need a key to get to, the only one is mine
I read about it in a book when I was a precocious child
No mid-sized city hopes and small-town fears
I'm there most of the year 'cause I hate it here
I hate it here

Now celeb snark: their announcement is cheesy AF and honestly gives me secondhand embarrassment. It somehow feels like both a knockoff of the way Hailey Steinfeld and Josh Allen announced their engagement last year, but more cringey and embarrassing and like it was photographed at the mall. You are mega-rich celebrities! Can you not do better than this??

Also the cheesiness and style of the engagement announcement indicates that they are planning on being somewhat public about the wedding and associated events, and that's going to bring the hate on. This feels like it's headed in the direction of a Bezos/Sanchez style event that is just an endless parade of conspicuous consumption. I would have respected them so much more if they'd skipped the public engagement and gotten married quietly at one of their numerous existing mansions with family and close friends in attendance. Instead it looks like we are probably lining up for a long series of wedding-related events with pap walks and tons of gossip over the guest lists and lots of needlessly wasteful flights on private jets all over the world and some over-the-top magazine spread breathlessly detailing every feature of their billion dollar wedding with 14 costume changes and every guest taking home Super Bowl tickets and a diamond necklace.

I hope I'm wrong but this feels over the top in an obnoxious way, sorry.

Bezos -Santos desecration of Venice is exactly what I thought of with this comment. Cheesy at the mall is preferable for mega-rich celebrities rather than what that other vile couple did. I hope TS realizes that. She gets enough hate with her jet.

1) She deserves the hate she gets for her jet. Her lifestyle is gross. Just because I like her music and respect her career does not mean I have to endorse the way these people live. That's how the mega-rich candy coat their obscene behavior so the rest of us stay quiet.

2) A lot of people go main character syndrome when they get married, this announcement indicates these two are no different. That's how Sanchez/Bezos spiraled into what it was. I think we are in for a lot of very cringey behavior with this one, sorry. It won't make me feel any differently about her music but we need to be objective about celebrities. If this turns into a multi-month extravaganza with destination everything, I will criticize the crap out of it, I don't care. Billionaires are a policy failure.

Policy failure? 🤦‍♀️

You're just mad you didn't start a virtual book store in your garage.

Stop being so resentful. You will feel better

DP. I don't know about them, but I am mad they don't pay a fair share of taxes and then buy numerous single-family homes to build their compounds...

I don't mind TS being a billionaire who made money from her music. I do mind Bezos and Zuck and Musk given they add very little to the world and suck on the teat of government for their money...

And just like that her $398 RL engagement dress is sold out everywhere.

Thank you. That's lovely then!

The week before NFL season begins, how romantic and totally not more fake crap from this obnoxious fake couple.

And last I checked a gym teacher and English teacher go to college and graduate. Neither of them have a college degree.

Thank you for explaining how this fake engagement is even faker and hyper-choreographed.

She’s a person who puts so much good out into the world and I’m genuinely happy for her.

Why does it matter if it were leaked to the public? If it did get leaked, it would be because they told enough people in their personal lives that it got out. Which would mean they prioritized telling friends and family (even though it risks it leaking because someone lets something slip to their cousin or coworker or something) over announcing it to their fans.

I have no idea why it would be important to someone to be the first to tell all the total strangers who worship them online about their engagement. I'd personally just let it leak and never formally announce it, it's not really their business. I wouldn't even let these photos see the light of day, they'd just be for me and to show to my kids someday, not to release on Instagram so that they can show up on TMZ.

It's 2025, have you really never heard "billionaires are a policy failure" before? And no, criticizing the disgusting overconsumption by the billionaire class, which does include Swift unfortunately, is not something that can be hand waived away with "you're just jealous."

And I do resent them, but not for having anything I want. I resent them for annihilating the planet that I would like to still be a functional place to live for kid and grandkids via private jets and elaborate parties. You should resent them for this too! You can be in love and get married without being disgusting and over consumptive, someone should let them know.

I'm not the person you quoted, but I get the frustration about private jets and overconsumption. That’s a legit criticism. But I think some of the anger gets misdirected. Celebrities like Taylor Swift are just operating within a system that’s designed to reward them for being as big and marketable as possible. The culture that makes it normal for entertainers to become billionaires (and for industries to profit massively off of them) is what allows this.

Blaming individuals for participating in a machine that society built feels like missing the bigger picture. If we really want change, it’s about addressing the policies, tax codes, and industries that enable this level of wealth and excess, not expecting one person to opt out of a system that would keep running whether they fly private or not.

Goodness, you are a miserable creature. I’m sorry that you’ve been hurt so badly in this lifetime.

It's not even cute! One of the first things I thought was that I wish her outfit was better.

If they do they're not going to announce the date until it's already happened.

So to be clear.... Taylor Swift is merely a victim of the Billionaire Industrial Complex? And that's why she has to take a private jet to dinner sometimes?

Honey, no.

Happy for Taylor

I bet Blake is seething knowing that she’s going to miss the celebrity event of the year.
