She's popular because her music is incredibly earwormy and she markets herself well, and because music stans, like stans of every other form of media, have always been and will always been rabid as fuck. It really is just that simple.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm sure that's true for some of her fans. And I get that you're not necessarily talking about her casual fans. But some people just like some of her music and don't relate to her either way on any sort of deep level.

[(Anonymous)]

I've tried listening to her music recently and I really don't get the appeal. She's not bad, but certainly doesn't scream RPF appeal to me.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not into, into her songs but I like a few because they're catchy and she otherwise makes very mainstream pop that does well in the general audience. So, good for her? lol. Idk I just don't really have any opinions on her because I don't pay attention to her beyond listening to the 2 songs of hers I have on my playlist every so often.

[(Anonymous)]

Well-off and privileged? Doesn't she mostly sing about love and emotions. There's one song where she gets drunk (maybe more?)

Emotions are universal. Now rapper....sing a lot about how much money they're spending and wearing. So you lost me with this secret, I think.

Pretty girls have ENTIRELY different experiences from the rest of us.

[meadowphoenix]

i disagree half-way in that some of the more popular songs she grew her fandom with are about not being chosen when you "should" be, which is entirely a relatable teenage feeling. but i think the grand majority of huge popstars build their fanbases on the same mix of aspirational and relational.

I had some incredibly sheltered teen years outside of the typical American high school experience of prom and early boyfriends that you're completely wild about to the point where they can completely decimate you even though you were only dating 6 weeks. My mom was so overprotective that she basically locked me up in my bedroom and never let me out until I was so socially stunted that I’m destined for the crazy cat lady life that they're going to find my body after it starts to smell and my skin will be half eaten off by all my cats…

But because of tv and movies, I wanted the kind of life shown on tv, so when I discovered Taylor’s music in 2009, it gave me a window into that perfect high school experience of being liked enough to have a friend group but to not be in a Plastics from Mean Girls kind of popular, to have that world shattered crush that you're able to win on your charm and then have cute, fun - but sexless - romance, but you're still sure enough of yourself that even if your first love doesn't work out because he's a cheater - why else wouldn't it work out unless there's something wrong with him? - you're still able to pick yourself up and brush yourself off like Taylor does on her first two albums.

Taylor’s music - outside of her complaining about fame stuff - is the sonic equivalent of Harlequin novels. It’s the love at first sight chemical reactions of hands brushing at the party where no one gets you. It’s the first date to get ice cream at the Christmas market. It's the romantic beach side proposal. It's his ex who you have to mentally and emotionally defeat like a Mario boss. It’s the wedding day that goes wrong - from your mom not liking your dress to the baker delivering the wrong cake to the flower girl being allergic enough to lilies to have an reaction but not seriously life threatening so you have to swap her out with your family’s version of the awkward little girl you were. It’s the waiting in the hotel for the go ahead to start going to the venue even though everything’s already late because no one knows where the the groom is. It’s ruining your bridal make up crying that the first person who ever got you has abandoned you like every one else but when he's finally able to get through to you after the storm of wedding planning fails blowing up your phone to let you know he's running late because he's got a flat tire. It’s you running out in your designer gown to go find him in your VW beetle painted like an aquarium. It's finding him and crying in joy that he's ok, but he still tells that you're the most beautiful and wonderful thing that's ever been his, even though you're no longer anywhere near Vogue Bride beautiful. It’s walking hand in hand down the aisle of the church both of your family have baptised, confirmed and married their kids in fkr generations. It’s the happily ever after that we’re all told we all deserve.

Until it goes tits up because it’s a Taylor Swift song, then its being completely feral in a way that we’re all told to be too polite to ever be because your heart’s now broken and fuck everything…

I'm poor and aroace, but I still find her relatable. It's not so much the specifics of what she sings about, most of which I don't personally relate to. It's the way her songs always feel like a genuine expression of something she's mulling over in her head and trying to come to grips with. They feel like the discussions I have with myself in my head, about things in my life, as I'm feeling them out and trying to come to grips with them. So even though a lot of the stuff I'm mulling and fretting and hurting and rejoicing and fantasizing over in my head is different to her stuff, I feel a sense of connection and comradery with her and her music, because my intrusive thoughts and internal arguments and negotiations with myself are not really that different when it comes right down to it. Like, same girl, same.

Anyone have a rough summary? I keep my distance from Genshin fandom (apart for a few chill fanartists that I follow) so I'm always a bit out of the loop what the current drama is.

Looks are not everything, personality is important too. I dislike Taylor Swift and, well, apparently this actress is TS's friend.

The weirdest part about some people like this is if you tell them you just write because it's fun and post it in case anybody else wanted to read it, they don't believe you because it's impossible that you can post something and be unconcerned about whether it gets attention. Like some of them literally believe every author feels that way, and the ones that say they don't are lying and secretly thirsting for kudos or whatever.

Coincidentally, the people who do that also tend to not be very good authors, considering the trouble they have imagining things from POVs not their own...
