She may not have the raw vocal power of some of her competitors, but what she lacks in Mariah-level range she makes up for in versatility and personality. Even with the widespread critical embrace of poptimism - a development I suspect has as much to do with the economics of online media as it does with the shifting winds of taste - there are still those who see Swift as just another industry widget, a Miley or Katy with the tuner set to “girl with a guitar.” If this list does anything, I hope it convinces you that, underneath all the think pieces, exes, and feuds, she is one of our era’s great singer-songwriters. So, uh, I don’t recommend you listen to this list top to bottom.īut I do recommend sampling as many of these songs as you see fit. What sort of real life can stand up against fantasies like these? Listen to too many and you might ache again at the nagging feeling that those stories of yours have all been a bit uneventful and drab by comparison. (This aspect of her songwriting matured somewhat with the coming of the Joe Alwyn era, as the love stories got slightly more quotidian, but even those were filled with secret affairs begun in dark bars - a mite more dramatic than Netflix and chill.) Listen to her songs and you’ll ache at the resemblance to the most dramatic moments in your own private history. An unworthy suitor wouldn’t just say something thoughtless he’d skip a birthday party, or leave a teenage girl crying alone in a hotel room. Instead, they showed up at each other’s doors late at night and they kissed in the rain. On her first five albums, her characters never eased into a relationship. Swift - or at least the version of Swift on her albums - has remained largely the same person since her debut: a thin-skinned, bighearted obsessive, with a penchant for huge romantic moments. Other people say she’s Jewish.Īnd yet, if the word on her has shifted since her debut, it’s because we’ve changed, not her. Some people say she’s a goddess of the alt-right.
QUEER AS FOLK SOUNDTRACK SEASON 1 EPISODE 22 SERIAL
The world’s most famous serial dater, now settled into a long-term relationship with the guy from The Favourite. She’s been feminism’s worst nightmare, and an advocate for victims of sexual assault.
She was a precocious teenager, and the ultimate embodiment of white privilege. And, outside the legions of fans who eat up everything she puts out, no take on her ever stays solid for long. For more than a decade, a 31-year-old woman from Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, has found herself at the center of our national conversations about race, gender, celebrity, victimhood, and even the intricacies of recording contract law. One of them is a massive, multimillion-dollar enterprise filled with violence and betrayal, and the other aired on HBO. The choices that I make in fashion, I hope, can help change some mindsets, even in a small way.Īnd the clothes were phenomenal, as always.In all my years in the business, there have been two subjects that could boost your page views like nothing else: Game of Thrones and Taylor Swift. We’re all just out here trying to find ourselves. Gender identity has always been part of the world. It’s always been so normal for me, but it feels like it might be newer to others. Why is it important for brands to be inclusive in today's world? Not only was there diverse casing, but gender identity is also represented in the series. I’m known for glamour and a French couture fantasy, but I think those four characters showed that there is another side of Balmain in me, as well. I loved that each of them represented Balmain in their own unexpected way. It was a long casting process but we chose the actors that showed the most emotion and passion. Why did you choose these names to represent Balmain? From Jesse Jo Stark, Tommy Dorfman, and Charles Melton to Ajani Russel-the casting highlights a mix of rising young talents.
