This was actually a very nice and insightful interview! It's a shame that people in here are trying to troll and continue to discredit Taylor's artistry. It's inspiring how she continues to grow and how passionate she is about her craft, but ATRL would rather talk about false tabloid fodder and set her up to get hit threads…

When Taylor left public school and started touring opening for various country artists at 16, her education didn't stop. She earned her diploma having to do her schoolwork on top of touring the US. Let's see you do it!

I'm a trans woman and I've honestly only hooked up with a handful of people, but it definitely was an eye opener and a shock to me how many of them used. I've also been offered drugs so many times in a lot of these in person encounters and in chatting with guys to potentially meet. I never judge anyone, but it's just not my thing and I do find it sad that there is such a huge drug problem (in my city specifically meth) in the LGBTQ community.

Taylor played acoustic guitar on various songs on her debut album, Fearless, Speak Now, Red and 1989, and she also played piano on a few songs on THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT! (My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys and The Black Dog)

My mom mainly listens to R&B, soul, and and hip-hop and my dad is a classic rock and Tejano guy, but growing up in Texas, country music was a huge part of my culture growing up and both of my parents love it, and so I was exposed to it too. It is still one of my favorite genres. It was because of it that I discovered Taylor when she debuted. 💚🥹

I second this! I would say that after The Eras Tour, Cruel Summer became Taylor's most iconic performance and in turn the Lover era outfit is probably now one of Taylor's most memorable and instantly recognizable looks.

Everyone in the fandom is very excited to hear the From The Vault tracks from reputation and has been begging for them since she announced she owns her masters now and might drop them someday. It's really cool to finally hear unreleased songs that almost made the album but were left off after all these years, which in my opinion is the most exciting part of the Taylor's Version project!

Taylor might release Taylor Swift (Taylor's Version) for the album's 20th anniversary! 💚

Oh baby some of the finest trade be there too! Definitely gonna have to speak to them and advertise the site! 🥰

PeriodT we love a Valley girly!

Omggggg this video was filmed at the trade center in my mid sized Texas city. This is so surreal. 😭😭😭

Not trying to excuse this, but this happened over 10 years ago. Plus having recently been 25 years old, it made me realize just how young Taylor still was and how much she still might have been uneducated about certain things, and it made me realize how little grace she was given even in her early-mid 20s when she was quite literally still growing up.

I have always loved Lover as an album and the aesthetics of the photoshoot as someone who is a hopeless romantic, and I'm glad she is finally getting her flowers. I was so upset with how people made fun of it back in 2019 and she lowkey had a second hate train forming after reputation. 😭😭😭 Time really is the ultimate truth teller. Lover forever!!! 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

The fake AI Fortnight "leak" that circulated about a month before TTPD came out. 😭😭😭 it was lowkey a bop!

This album contains some of Taylor's best lyricism and raw emotion yet. I had always wanted Taylor to write an album with a poetry theme. Most of the people who hate on the album probably never even listened to it funny because it is such a beautiful and deep body of work. I will never forgive Stan Twitter for trashing it so hard.

As a Taylor stan, I don't agree with any hateful language or transphobic comments being made. At the same time, it seems so foolish for this artist to comment on the Taylor/Olivia situation when there is no proof of a public dispute between them. It seems stupid to even say anything when Eli most likely doesn't have any inside knowledge as to what exactly happened or how Taylor got the credit. Imagine doing all of this over fake fan created beef. 😭😭😭😭😭

As someone who experienced both in real time, I just want to say that I NEVER thought that Taylor would be absolutely EVERYWHERE like she was in 2023-2024. The Eras Tour was a huge cultural phenomenon, was recognized globally and it was like everyone was watching. Never had there been so much interest in Taylor or her work imo even during 1989. Living through the 1989 era in 2014-2015, it already felt like Taylor was at her biggest peak of popularity and overall celebrity and that's why the Eras era felt so crazy. I knew Taylor would still always have successful albums and projects after 1989, but never did I expect her to surpass herself when it comes to impact, especially at this level.

I'm surprised Austin, TX didn't make the list lmaoooo but then again it's kind of overrated ngl

So many gays I know consider it her artistic peak, but the truth is that it is lyrically (other than This Love, Clean, and Say Don't Go) Taylor's weakest album. I say this as someone who loves the album, attended the tour and appreciates that era of Taylor's career. Literally any of her other pop albums are better (reputation, Midnights, TTPD).

Seeing Taylor at The Eras Tour was such a life changing and inspiring thing for me. It really gave me a new appreciation for every album in Taylor's discography and after seeing it in the months following, I just had a glow and optimism about life in general because the tour showed me how hard Taylor worked to get to that point and it just made me want to work as hard in my personal life.

I have to give it to Joe, he's inspired some of my favorite Taylor songs EVER. Call It What You Want, Cornelia Street, peace, Maroon, and How Did It End? are all career highlights

I still listen to and have all of the Taylor's Versions in my library over the original... Yes, even 1989 TV. I just feel like they are so much more improved and sound way better, and I love how polished and clear the production sounds and I just can't go back to the OG when we have what is in my opinion a superior version. I can't wait for TS TV this year! 💚 I will admit though, every now and then I do listen to the OG version of some songs just for nostalgia. 🥹

Taylor is very underrated because everyone has heard her hits like Shake It Off, We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together, Bad Blood, etc. and they feel like those hits probably represent the majority of her discography since those are the ones that are popular. But when you actually get into Taylor's discography and listen to those deep cuts, you will see that she writes some of the most poetic, heartfelt, and beautifully heart wrenching songs. No one can match her storytelling or the care or attention to detail that she puts into her work. She is someone who truly understands human connection and emotions. It's such a shame that outside of Taylor's huge fan base, a lot of people don't actually know or even care to see what is underneath the surface that is her pop singles even after The Eras Tour. I feel like Taylor is sadly one of those artists who won't be truly appreciated until decades from now.

Are people ever going to get tired of posting the same performance from over a decade ago to criticize Taylor's skills as a vocalist? 😭
