Honestly I don’t even care about Taylor Swift the superstar I just want to watch a movie with her and feed the ducks with her and go ice skating with her (even though I don’t know how) and eat pastel colored cotton candy at the funfair with her and write with her and drink hot tea with her and go antique shopping with her and cry with her and order takeout with her and dance around in my pj’s with her and bake vegan cookies with her and make snow angels with her and take two hour walks with her and talk about life with her and pet Meredith with her and go candle shopping with her and make breakfast with her and sing (off key) with her and laugh at stupid jokes with her and lurk people on tumblr with her and try new make-up with her and go to an art gallery with her and scrapbook with her and look at Christmas decorations with her and take silly photos with her and stuff my face with her and ugly cry at sappy movies with her and volunteer with her and paint with her and meditate with her and go on a road trip with her and order everything on the menu with her and stay up all night with her and jump in water puddles with her and kiss dogs on the nose with her and make playlists with her and talk philosophy with her and needle point with her (she’d have to teach me how) and chase the rainbow with her and discuss politics with her and look at embarrassing childhood photos with her and get drunk with her and paint my nails with her and I just really really just want to be her friend is all

The Best Moments From the Opening Night of Taylor Swift's Reputation Tour

Taylor Swift kicked off her Reputation tour in Glendale, AZ on Tuesday night (May 8), to a roaring crowd of 60 thousand screaming fans.

From her elegant – and sparkly! – costumes, to the elaborate stagings, and the fan-favorite songs she chose, Swift outdid herself with her latest offering.

It’s true that the old Taylor may be dead, but her Reputation tour is very much alive and thriving. Here are the best moments from opening night.

Keeping Focus

During the 1989 tour, Swift famously brought out members of her “squad” every night for “Bad Blood”, as well as a special guest to perform. But this time, Swift kept the spotlight to herself. She invited openers Charli XCX and Camila Cabello on stage to sing “Shake It Off” briefly and offered a surprise celebrity cameo in Tiffany Haddish – who appeared as part of a pre-taped segment for “Look What You Made Me Do” – but otherwise, the night belonged to Swift and Swift alone.

Tiffany Haddish

But it is always great to see her.

Taylor’s Puns

“What’s better then beautiful?” Swift asked the crowd before queuing up “Gorgeous.” “It’s delicate,” she said of putting yourself out there in order to find happiness in any kind of relationship – and of course, she began that song off of her latest album. And then, after a costume change, she asked everyone if we liked her “Dress.” Cheesy? Maybe. But it worked with Swift’s often coy presence.

The Mashups

She needs to record a full version of the entwined “Bad Blood” and “Should’ve Said No” that she performed.

“All Too Well”

Swift said that this song was requested more than any other in her repertoire, despite it not being a single. Naturally, she gave the fans what they wanted – a beautiful rendition that brought to mind autumn leaves, scarves and crumpled pieces of paper.

Addressing the Snake in the Room

In one of her monologues, she explained the usage of snakes – from her jewelry, to the stage, to the imagery on screen, and even inflatable versions of the animal. “You might be wondering why there are so many snakes everywhere,” she said. “The reason is a couple of years ago, someone called me a snake on social media and it caught on,” she continued, alluding to her feud with Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. “I went through some really low times because of it,” she added. But then her wisdom kicked in. “If someone is using name calling to bully you on social media – and even if a lot of people jump on board with it, it doesn’t have to defeat you. It can’t strengthen you instead” Well played.

An Acoustic Change

Reputation is a far cry from Taylor’s musical roots. But she turned the assumption that her new sound doesn’t mesh with her old country persona on its head, by performing “Dancing With Our Hands Tied” with just her guitar. “I still write songs the same way,” she said.

Maybe the Old Taylor Really Isn’t Dead

While songs from Reputation made up the majority of her set, Swift threw in tunes from each of her albums – including “Should’ve Said No” from her debut, “Love Story and “You Belong With Me” from Fearless, “Long Live” from Speak Now, “All Too Well” and “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” from Red, and several from 1989.

Her Parting Message

The words “and in the death of her Reputation, she felt truly alive” flashed on screen as the night ended.  A very perfect and poetic finish.

i’m taylor admitting that every night she gave advice in the clean speeches she didn’t take.

i’m taylor being strong and genuine enough to say “i wasn’t there with myself yet, but i am now and i mean it from the bottom of my heart and soul this time… from experience.” 

i’m taylor’s grace in the acceptance of her pain and the lessons she learned from it.

#this enrages me every time i see it for the simple fact that john mulaney would have been 15 when princess diana died #which begs the question #if he’s lying #does that mean he did it?

[actuallygodzilla]

#he also grew up in chicago illinois not wisconsin

i cant believe john mulaney killed princess diana

So

which one of you losers has the guts to ask?

[utahswiftie]

I knew she might be special. I just had a feeling. I thought, ‘if this ones special, maybe I can convince her to sign with me.’ From the minute she walked in the door, I never saw her again as a 14-year-old. I saw her incredible potential. She was so unique as a person. She was a giddy little girl, then, in a heartbeat, extraordinarily sophisticated. She was always smart.

There’s probably more but these are the ones I can think of at the moment! Please be considerate and don’t play pranks at other people’s expenses!

Have fun everyone!

Junko Cheng appeared in Taylor Swift’s ‘Delicate’ — and now she’s an internet sensation

Entertainment Weekly // by Maureen Lee Lenker‏ // March 15th 2018

How did you get cast in the video? I just got signed with a prestigious model and acting agency in January, and this was the very first audition I was sent out for. I don’t know why, but I got the job right away. I had been taking some acting classes for the last couple of years as a diversion from my music career, which I’ve been doing since my 20s. The audition was really short. I went up to downtown L.A. and I walked into a room, and they wanted an older female person. I didn’t know what this was for. I knew it was a music video, that’s all I knew. Initially it said for an unnamed male artist so they really kept it under wraps. They told me, “Pretend I’m in an elevator and someone really famous and tall comes in, like 8 feet tall. Show me your expression, go.” So I relied on my improv class that I was taking, did a couple of improv-ish things and they liked it and they had me do it again, and then they thought it was really funny. And I thought, “Oh that was probably it.” This is a really freaking early point in my acting career to get even an audition, so I just left thinking I didn’t get it. Well, the next day I get a call saying “You got the job!”

At that point did you know what the project was? What happened next? When I arrived for the wardrobe, they confiscated my phone and I had to sign a non-disclosure [agreement], and I walked onto the set, which was like a huge, like a major motion picture kind of set with lighting and camera and crew, and people running around. The guy that met me with a clipboard said, “Just remember when you leave this place, this didn’t happen, okay?” So everybody inside, the other actors that were inside, were like, “This must be legit. We don’t know who it is, but it must be legit.” We all didn’t know what to do without our phones. We didn’t even know what time it was. We were getting our wardrobe and then after that, I went home. It was a two night shoot…I was the final scene in their shoot. When I showed up for my hair and makeup, that’s when I found out it was Taylor Swift, and I almost fell out of my chair. I had to swear to secrecy for 5 or 6 weeks before the video came out. I was dying. But it was so fun.

Were you a big fan of her music? Of course. I love her songs. I’m older, and I think she has an appeal for all different ages. My kids like her; they always have. Maybe not a huge Swiftie fan, but we enjoy her music and I always thought she was really cute. Sure enough, she really is a sweet person — humble and kind and not into herself. She would make eye contact and ask about you, and just a really nice person.

So no one, including your kids, found out until the video debuted — what was their reaction? They were completely floored. They were just shocked. As soon as the video showed on the iHeartRadio awards show, my phone started to go off. I was flying home from Seattle and I was just boarding and I didn’t have good Wi-Fi, so I didn’t get to see the whole video until I landed back in Orange County two and half hours later, but my texts and messages were going crazy. “I think I just saw you. Is that you?” And I’m like, “Oh you did. How did I look? I can’t see.” It was crazy.

What did you think of the video once you saw it? I thought it was so lovely. It’s so classy and different than the last two or three she had done. Those are fun, but I could tell this wasn’t going to be like that. Just with the wardrobe and the hotel. You saw how pretty the set was, that it wasn’t like that anime-inspired, futuristic thing she’d been doing in the last few. I knew it was going to tell a story. I wasn’t really sure what the story was, but it all made sense when I saw the whole video. This is one I’m really proud to be in. This is great.

Her dancing has sparked a lot of discussion — what do you think of it? All I was thinking was, Man, this is the second night of an all-nighter and the girl is still dancing each time full-out. She was dancing with full abandon and just having fun. To see her dancing so happily and without a care of what people thought, I love that.

katy perry kissed a 19 year old american idol contestant without his consent during an audition. he was uncomfortable and had been saving his first kiss for somebody special. please don’t let this be ignored just because the victim is male.

[crazy-pages]

If you’re having trouble pushing past sexist socialization to see just how creepy this is, imagine if a 33 year old guy did this to a 19 year old girl who was auditioning.

Delicate music video commentary from the left pit at the iHeart Radio Awards:

“It’s something symbolic, I just know it”

“Ohh she looks pretty”

“Why is she making those faces”

“What’s going on”

“SHE CAN DO THE SPLITS?”

“I fuck with her!!”

“She looks like the old Taylor”

“Is this like la la land?”

“I like this song. It’s chill”

“The note was magic?”

[musicjunkie29]

I really think it’s brilliant how they ignored the expected romance angle in these videos they are doing and instead focus on putting us in her head and what she was feeling through it all. She didn’t fall in love in a vacuum…like most of us…there is so much more going on and effecting your headspace.

Reputation may be about a love story but it’s told from her perspective and colored by her headspace throughout. They have stayed true to that concept in these music videos. They are very much a look inside.

[in-her-wildest-dreams]

i just adore the fact that this video essentially represents exactly what’s going on in taylor’s mind during this ‘delicate’ phase and how all she wants to do is prance around and show off her excitement and personality like any normal person would but no one in the public eye lets her enjoy her life that way ever so she has to take back every feeling and act ‘chill’ all the damn time idk i just love this concept and this video so damn much (!!!)
