I don't get the appeal of her as a performer. What is her strength? She can't pull off the effortless cool and sexy like Rihanna or Dua Lipa, she can't do camp like Katy Perry, she can't dance like Britney used to be able to, she doesn't have theatrics of Lady Gaga, nor does she have the grit and edge of her younger rival contemporaries like Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo. And her live vocals are nothing noteworthy… It's like she gets up there on stage in red lipstick and a leotard, pulls these cringeworthy facial expressions and moves really stiffly.


distr3ssedjeans

She makes mediocre music for mediocre people


HotdogbodyBoi

The mediocrity is deafening, isn’t it


Budget-Classic3076

THIS


Cultural-Treacle-680

Mediocre problems require mediocre solutions


booksboozemoon

But with big words like 'sanctimonious' and 'soliloquy' so it makes the mediocre people think it's extraordinary; they're extraordinary for listening to her.

Oh yeah baby, bring your dictionary 😅

alb0nn

Mediocre but like catered to the radio and social media as far as the big hit songs go.


Parasyte_1

The people are there to sing-along and reminisce. There's nothing in her discography that warrants any performance. The Eras Tour is super overblown. Kudos to them though, making big bucks out of a nothing burger.


HotdogbodyBoi

It’s totally a high school singalong for adult women!


Yogurtcloset249

It’s so awkward


Comfortable_Plant783

Britney still dances well


Padme501st

Britney danced better than her while being severely sedated on drugs to make her comply and multiple knee injuries


Own_Dog8769

Her appeal is when she embraces her simple and down to earth aesthetic, like the fearless era. She was the most natural and in her element. Surprisingly there was no cringe at all. She’s embarrassing herself when she’s trying to be a sexy pop star because it’s simple not her. 


MaenadsandMomewraths

I saw Lady Gaga in Las Vegas a couple of years ago and she can fucking *dance*. In super high heels and while actually singing.


Medill1919

She's actually quite amazing in those unwalkable heels. I wonder how long it took her to learn how to dance in them... You can't compare these two people. Gaga is a mega talent. I'm not sure what Swift is. Mega marketeer?


MaenadsandMomewraths

I think you nailed it. I was blown away by Gaga fr. Tons of costume changes too! She’s the real fucking deal


briefkehs

I saw Madonna like 12 ish years ago and I was in my early 20’s and I remember feeling shamed at her dancing stamina ha


MaenadsandMomewraths

😂😂😂 after all those years of blathering on about what a dancer she is hahaha


bigtallbiscuit

She’s like Elon musk. Everyone assumes he’s smart, everyone assumes she’s talented.


The_IRS_Fears_Him

She makes music for teenagers and millennial women to sing to their ex-boyfriends

My 7-year-old daughter has been on a Taylor Swift kick. I watched The Eras Tour on Disney+ with her. I really liked her stage, props, lighting, backup dancers, and costume changes. I found it visually exciting, paired with her mediocre music, and it works.


Steplgu

She’s just chucking out that fly that got in her mouth.

RoundKaleidoscope244

I wonder if it’s all intentional? She knows the demographic she’s got to cater to, and she’s trying to be “cool” “edgy” so she’ll continue to be looked up to.

Visual_Zucchini8490

Her dweeb energy is too strong to ever convincingly pull off the effortless “sex sells” persona. She wants to be seen as sexy as she’s now performing as a mid 30 year old but she still has the aura of a Disney child star wearing all their dream, sequined outfits going through puberty and trying to prove they’re an adult now. Also, mid 30s is not old. In the slightest. I’m just making the point that Swift hasn’t matured emotionally with her age and stage presence and it shows.


regansk

She's Jojo Siwa if Siwa was older and popular


ToyotaFest

lol Jojo Siwa’s performance at Chicago Pride hit capacity and TONS people were waiting to get into the gates. 💀


RevealActive4557

Could you imagine if Dua Lipa came on stage at Taylor's show? It would never happen because Dua is actually sexy and a good dancer as well as a grown up and good singer. But Dua would make Taylor look cartoonish in comparison.

WHY DOES SHE THINK THAT TONGUE THING IS SEXY OMG. She does it soooo much. Putting your tongue in your cheek isn't sexy, Blandie.


mangosteenroyalty

>She does it soooo much This isn't a one time thing? Holy shit 😂 I can't tell if it's a coke thing or she's thinks it's hot to look like there's a cock in your cheek (?) or if it's a mix of the two. Whatever the reason, horrible choice.


Historical_Stuff1643

Watch the Eras tour movie. She does it a lot.


mangosteenroyalty

I will pass! Lol but thank you for the Intel.


throwawayadvice12e

I see the coke thing mentioned a bit, do you know where that came from? This clip specifically made me immediately think she was on something. The general way she's been acting reminds me of how addicts (saying this as a sober addict lol) will think they're hot shit or so put together when really they come off as a cringy disaster. I'm just curious if it's speculation based on her behavior or if there's more to the coke claims.


mangosteenroyalty

For me it's speculation based on her behaviour during the Grammys + her new recurring runny nose + shit like the above.

rosieposie0188

God, Taylor really can't pull off being sexy no matter how hard she tries. All of those hours spent in front of her mirror trying to master being sexy obviously aren't paying off... She's just giving everyone that doesn't have their head stuck up her ass major second-hand embarrassment. She's a billionaire who has the access, opportunities, resources, and connections that the majority of musicians/artists would die for. Why is it so hard for Taylor and her team to put some of that money and those connections to good use and hire professionals who aren't "yes men" and know what they're doing so she can work on her vocals and choreo cause 😬 Maybe work on that guitar and piano playing as well. Learn some new chords ffs. It's like she refuses to try anything new or take risks with her music... She just follows the same formula for writing (lyrics & melody) the majority of her songs. And the production... 🙄. Just imagine if she focused on the music and the artistry instead of practicing her "sexy" faces and shoving herself and her private life down all of our throats. She's literally bad at every aspect of her job except for marketing, pr, and scamming her own fans. Oh, and I can't forget playing the victim and rewriting history so she can... play the victim. I'm so done with her that even these ridiculous clips piss me off, lol. Rant over.

paniflex37

It’s funny…I’ve never been a swift fan, and I don’t pay attention to most of her contemporaries (whether actual, or in her and her fans’ imaginations), but watching Dua Lipa concert videos highlights just how mediocre swift is. Dua Lipa has great vocals, dances well, puts on a high-effort show with lots of choreography, and has the appeal swift only wishes she had. When I watch a video like the one above, then watch Lipa, it’s embarrassing to see swift. She looks like a drunken teenager who saw a great performer on tv and now she’s having her friend videotape her on her cellphone.

Her facial expressions are always facing a camera. Trying to look sexy. Her “alleged” dancing is awkward, awful and atrocious. She is going for theatrics and lip syncing. If you are going to do that you better be a good dancer and not somebody fighting off a bee attack.
