Taylor fanboy Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 She played it safe with her speech, and rightfully so. She’s just owning her brand of the underdog, and solidifying the narrative she rose up from the dead.
BtDecember Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 I am so proud of Taylor I will also attend my graduation next month for my degree and am also excited! #22GraduatesVersion
Michael196 Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 (edited) Is it too much to ask for ‘Crazier’ and ‘You’ll Always Find Your Way Back Home’ for Speak Now TV? I mean the timeline would be inconsistent since TWAF was on Fearless, when it came after the songs I previously mentioned, but... we still really need those, she can even put them on debut...

I think a lot of stan war trolls don't believe half the things they say

There's a reason that a lot of pop girls never address their audience and simply move along from song to song, while Tay delivers 3 improvised speeches each concert and still having the audience in the palm of her hand, hanging on every word she says. Her public speaking skill is underrated, it's not red hair and tapping ****** dance moves so it goes under the radar. Her shows are by FAR the most engaging I've ever been to, and I'd never been able to put a finger on why (aside from being a stan) until really recently, when I realized it was just her insane skill for working an audience. Taylor literally takes the time to introduce herself at the beginning of every show she does, be it on tour, at a festival, a private concert, or a ******* commencement address. The other girls could NEVER
TaylorNation Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 the fact that I added “Dr.” the the NYU thread title TWICE but mods remove it I don’t know if OTHs are reporting the thread or if it’s mods them removing it, but her power to continuously press people never ceases to amaze me
Cleanromantic Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 I wonder why the stans of a certain make-up selling lady are always fuming about Taylor. Spoiler I know why but still, it's alarming.
Dear Reader Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 the mental gymnastics on THAT thread her power is truly insane, 10 seconds have the OTH PERCHED to drag her… I guess since their favs don’t give them anything to talk about, they’re just bored

State of Grace. Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 (edited) Her first public appearance this year being a whole ass EVENT She served a LOOK and a great speech. I love her again. Taylor Swift you will always be famous and relevant. Edited May 18, 2022 by State of Grace.

We’ve known literally her entire career and got official confirmation with the Miss Americana doc—not being liked, believed, or taken seriously gets to her. While I also agree that someone of her status really shouldn’t worry about it, I do think it’s also very relatable. Everyone wants to be liked, everyone wants their side of a story to be believed, and everyone wants to be taken seriously as a person/professional. I think she’s grown and doesn’t let it bother her as much anymore, but it always will to some extent. Same goes for the Scott/Scooter situation.

Cleanromantic Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 She looked so beautiful and radiant today She's basically been in a beauty peak since the Reputation era started and she's been glowing ever since.
IBeMe Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 she is a genius, she is the moment and she is an icon. Dr. Swift
IBeMe Posted May 18, 2022 Posted May 18, 2022 The issue I have with Haunted is you can tell she is at her vocal limits throughout the ENTIRE song. But that almost gives it a charm of sorts? Feels almost Evanescence esque but still...the struggle is THERE. I cannot wait to hear it re recorded now that she has stronger vocals. It will be A COLLAPSE.

I don't think it's possible for a human to experience that level of dog-piling without getting some pretty hefty emotional scars. And that goes for any celebrity that has experienced online hate Someone on twitter will post a bad take or stupid comment and get quote-retweeted by a dozen to a hundred people making fun of them, and many will have to either take a temporary break from social media or quit the platform all together. I can't fathom what that type of scrutiny would be like on a scale exponentially bigger There are plenty of celebs that have quit social media or dramatically reduced their exposure to the public cuz people are nasty and awful. It's unfortunate that Taylor can't even really talk about her experience (never mind make a harmless joke in a speech) without being accused of perpetuating her "victimhood" (whatever that means) or having the experienced downplayed by people who would fold over like a house of cards if even a handful of people made fun of them online

I also think the way she briefly mentioned 2016 with the wine joke at the end was proof of her growth (despite what OTHs say). 4-5 years ago I think she would’ve either glossed over it completely, or dedicated an entire tangent to those who wronged her. Instead, she spent 10 seconds on it and ended with a joke, and I think that says a lot considering how it effected her, even to this day.
Michael196 Posted May 19, 2022 Posted May 19, 2022 @Taylor fanboy she really knew what she was doing putting these two back to back...
Michael196 Posted May 19, 2022 Posted May 19, 2022 The usual cracked clownery, but sadly it’s not far fetched
