he's not citing only the latin american countries, he's citing every AMERICAN country, period. we, too, are americans. being american is not being from the united states and decolonial studies have said this for decades.
she sprayed herself with opalite because she thought she was the one in the way of her own happiness. turns out living with an emotionally unavailable rock will fuck your perception of yourself like that
People can say what they want, but the one thing about Taylor you can't say is that she doesn't go big or put in the work. At a time where the Music Video as an artform is dying, she shoots a video with an A-List cast, ON FILM, with Martin Scorcese's 4 time Oscar-nominated DP.
My favorite part about writing is that first spark of an idea. It can happen at any time, for any reason. The idea for the Opalite music video crash landed into my imagination when I was doing promo for The Life of a Showgirl. I was a guest on one of my favorite shows, @TheGNShow. For those of you who aren’t familiar, it’s a UK late night show where Graham Norton (the insanely charismatic and lovable host) invites a random group of actors, entertainers, musicians, etc to be on his show and we all sit there and chat like it’s a dinner party. They even serve wine. Anyway. I remember thinking I got ridiculously lucky with the group I was paired with. Cillian Murphy, Domhnall Gleeson, Greta Lee, Jodie Turner-Smith, and @LewisCapaldi. All people whose work I’ve admired from afar. When we were all talking during the broadcast, Domhnall made a light hearted joke about wanting to be in one of my music videos. He’s Irish! He was joking! Except that in that moment during the interview, I was instantly struck with an *idea*. And so a week later he received an email script I’d written for the Opalite video, where he was playing the starring role. I had this thought that it would be wild if all of our fellow guests on the Graham Norton show that night, including Graham himself, could be a part of it too. Like a school group project but for adults and it isn’t mandatory. To my delight, everyone from the show made the effort to time travel back to the 90’s with us and help with this video. You might even recognize some friendly faces from The Eras Tour. I got to work with one of my favorite people in the world, Rodrigo Prieto, again! I had more fun than I ever imagined - Made new friends, metaphors, and fashion choices. It was an absolute thrill to create this story and these characters. Shot on film. The Opalite video is out now on Spotify & Apple Music.

The Trump administration took down these documents containing vulgar accusations against President Trump, just to put them back up when people noticed.
They still didn’t redact the info of the victims, which tells you everything you need to know: for the DOJ, this is all about protecting Trump, not justice for the survivors.
