I didn’t see it that way. I thought that she was basically conveying that whenever she weighed herself, she always saw her self as being fat. Or at least that’s what she told herself late at night when the demons come in and we tell ourselves all kinds of s**t.

I don't think it's fatphobic personally - might be a controversial opinion but I do think people look for reasons to be offended these days

I also think it's somewhat narcissistic to demand people to not use phrases that you don't like - most of the stuff I've seen on Tiktok are from users whose entire feeds are them complaining about others

It's no secret that Taylor has been through really difficult times throughout her career in terms of her weight, and peoples view of themselves/their weight is subjective. I don't think it's for anybody else to tell her or anybody else how to feel about themselves. The word "fat" is literally just that.... a word. Policing everyday words because you don't like them is just stupid to me, and this is coming from somebody who has gained and lost huge amounts of weight in my late teens/early twenties

I can’t believe this happening - couldn’t feel happier ! Those numbers.
YouTube numbers look strong too.

I think this is right, Taylor has spoken about having an eating disorder (starving herself). That part of the video is very relatable for me.

I find it so interesting how the song is actually painfully relatable to many and yet she manages to convey it in such a light hearted way.

Spotify numbers are out for yesterday - 3rd day streams 692k and over 200k ahead of Sam/Kim still

Anti-Hero's streams dropped by 12% from Saturday to Sunday and Sam/Kim dropped by 21%, so #1 is pretty much on lock now! I know it basically always was, but after the Drake/GLG fiasco last year, you can never be too sure tongue.gif

I’m not going to say that I downloaded it 4 times in case anyone looses their s**t over it but when I saw 719 downloads I thought: surely I can’t have 4 out of just 719 copies!?

I was off watching this again, I love the video. My favorite part is when she crashes the dinner party.

Have you seen this:



I never know about these allegations of copying art etc. There are definitely similarities in the concept and some of the shots but not sure how far a court case would go with it all if Manuela pursues it.
