Criticizing Taylor's work is always fair game. That's how art work. It doesn't matter what else you do -- many artists have done a ton of charitable work or are just very exceptionally good people, and they will still get critical reviews (by professional critics and by regular people) because that's the gig. You have the privilege of sharing your artistic work with the world, and letting them receive it as they will.
The random criticism of her relationships or just hating on the way she looks or just vague attacks on her being washed up or middle aged or fake or whatever... some of that is mean girl behavior but it's easy to ignore.
But criticizing her music or her videos or her dancing or the concept of her album? That's always fair game.
Disappointed in this album. She comes off as an insecure mean girl and unconscious racist.
She is petty and the attack on Charli is uncalled for. Actually Romantic would’ve been better if targeted at the haters who obsess about her online.
It’s so random. Charli isn’t even famous. It seems her alleged shit talking got so under her skin because she’s still super obsessed with that gay dork Matty.

And even that was a bit of a rip-off of Ace of Base's 1998 "Cruel Summer," which was originally by Bananarama in 1983. Pop stars all lose their fast ball in their 30s. She would have been 29 or so when "Cruel Summer" was recorded.
Taylor has zero room to falter on songwriting or music production. I’m not a swiftie nor a hater, but let’s be honest she is vocally weak among her peers. If you are a pop singer with weak vocals you have to put out HITS and there is no room for error music wise. Examples being: Rihanna and prime Britney Spears. I also think the whole thing with the “showgirl” was a mistake. Me being an idiot, I thought she would refer to things historically like Vegas Rat Pack music or something different and jazzy. Taylor seems unwilling to go experimental.

Even a short ‘You up’ text at 2am might suffice 🤣

This album is filled with musical allusions from 90s grunge to Stevie Wonder to the Ronettes to Bobby Freeman to the obvious George Michael to previous Taylor “eras.” Very few people could integrate so many musical allusions so deftly.
Also she is so prolific, it’s incredible. It is so hard to make anything at all from scratch, and here she is doing it over and over. Nothing but respect here.
That's because she stole a bunch of the songs on this album from other artists.
This all day long. There’s nothing original in theft. She’s capable of genuine art. This record is just a lazy money grab and damage control for leaving herself so vulnerable on TTPD which is her greatest album in my opinion. And I am a Taylor fan.

Styling and costumes: A++++
Video concept: B-
Taylor's Dancing or even like her basic movement choreography from each set piece to the next: F-
And this is when I realized what a tactical error it was for her to make this album a "showgirl" concept, because it will push her into doing a LOT of choreography to support the concept. Look, Taylor is extremely talented at many things, but you and I and Taylor and anyone with eyes knows she can't dance. Sure, she can look like a showgirl in the costume with the makeup in a still photo because she has the face and the height for it. But put that in motion and it's just cringe cringe cringe please stop.

At least she doesn’t need to worry about carrying narcan for Kelce
She should carry mace for when his CTE rage kicks in. The idiot has scrambled his brain for 20 plus years playing football & it ain’t like he had much native brain power to begin with.
