On the same note, I don't think she will retire or take more than a 2 year hiatus in the short to medium term future. She might shorten/ skip tours or just do residencies if she ever has children but , from all of her public statements, she really loves making and releasing music. Side note- I think the 1950s **** in Lavender Haze is in part calling out people who think she will be a traditional housewife and give up her career for her children. She doesn't seem to be that type at all. Iirc she mentioned in her ms Americana docu that when she was 29 that was when she started feeling like an adult (this was when they were ordering burritos iirc) and knowing things about herself, she clearly feels stunted emotionally by the fame thrown her way and honestly I don’t think she plans on having kids at least not in the short term. She’ll probably marry in her 40s first
Emil Larsen Posted July 9, 2023 Posted July 9, 2023 She is so good at hooks, especially in her self-written songs like Red, Mine and Love Story. 2

A male artist is never called a "grandpa" even if he is in his 50s but whenever a female artist turns 30, she is called a grandma, a hag.

I honestly don't like thinking about those kinds of comments anymore simply because you'll never win against them. Systemically Taylor will always have ageism against her simply by virtue of being a woman. Madonna's Woman of the Year speech truly encapsulates what so many women in this industry face: 'To age is a sin.' 2

But in general, stans act like tours are something we are judge based on the artist's technical capability which is insane. In reality, the most important factor that fans judge tours on is the setlist. Like if fans love the songs, a half decent performance will make them happy but if they dislike the song, an insane performance will at best make the song tolerable. After that visuals, production, and crowd connection are also factors that effect fan's enjoyment of the tour. People like Taylor's songs more so it doesn't matter at all if she isn't a good of dancer or vocalist as Beyonce. Especially since Beyonce choose to leave most of her big hits off the tour. She doesn't even perform, Singe Ladies, Halo, If I were a Boy or Drunk in Love. 1

She’ll probably marry in her 40s first I don't think Taylor knows/ has a plan for when she will have kids or get married, especially since she doesn't have a bf. It could be in two years or twenty (Janet Jackson had her first child at 52). I do think from her lover-midnights lyrics that she was considering it with Joe but it didn't work out ( "I wouldn't marry me either" from You are Losing Me and peace's reference to giving him a child).

It can be seen that she is big in countries with high English proficiency. Obviously this is very important when it comes to Taylor's music. If I play Dear John, All Too Well or the entirety of Folklore to my parents they would get bored in less than 30 seconds. And that's the average Spanish (or French, Italian...) listener. That doesn't mean she doesn't have a big fanbase of specially young people, but it's very difficult to penetrate into the GP. Her pop hits during 1989 era helped her with that but they are not that many and there are better artists at that. That's not her main strength. 1

In France, Midnights only spent 2 weeks in top 10. Most (but not all) French people probably got bored of songs with no hooks like Labyrinth, Sweet Nothing, Mastermind, Midnight Rain whereas they BOP to Anti Hero, Karma and Bejeweled because these 3 songs are so catchy lol.

Anti Hero only peaked at #32 last year. France really said no to her on charts. But she can still tour because her niche fanbase here is so dedicated.
