VMAs producer Van Toffler calls Taylor Swift a “true visionary” as he explains the Artist Director Honors Award:
“Basically, a bunch of us — MTV employees, the producers, the production team — were looking at Taylor’s body of work and her evolution. She’s an artist who has thrived in front of the camera and behind the camera, in all genres of music. […] She’s just evolved so much, and we felt this would be a great way to honor her work. So we decided to do that as a group internally in the production team and reached out to her and her team. We’re happy it worked out.”
“She takes [directing] so seriously in all aspects of those videos. They are short films, no doubt. She makes exceptional videos, so we felt this would be the right time to honor her for that.
She keeps pushing it and making great stuff. It’s not just the music; it’s the visual aspect as well that she marries to it. She is a true visionary.”
he was acting like the paparazzi was there for his bum ass 😭 leaving taylor behind like it’s his apartment 🤣 what a useless man. Now he calls paparazzi every week 😂
yes the Cornell rape incident is horrible, but a more overlooked sinister detail is that they advertised it in a group chat and NONE of the guys reported it or stopped them. Men enable men.
Bebe Rexha recalls Taylor Swift reaching out to support her after struggling to find a designer to dress her for the 2019 Grammys:
“Nobody really reached out — like, some people did — but for her, at such a high level, to like, make me feel like I belong was really, really nice.”
genuinely cannot fathom going through all that while planning eras, having it all break down as it starts, then being kicked while you’re down again while having to perform back to back every night
The thing with taylor is that she IS corny, cheesy, cringey, campy, bubbly while being incredibly smart, educated and strategic; and instead of hiding those traits in order to look cool and sophisticated she is embracing them. And that's why this swiftie shit is for life
I have the softest spot for RFI but Ophelia is Ophelia and I don't give a shit for either So It Goes or Actually Romantic and I love Wood too much but obviously Getaway Car is Getaway Car
@ivysgardensong Maybe because the concept of the album is Life of a showgirl and all the shit thrown at her over the span of her career is a big part of that life.
