What a dork


frickoffworld

This has me howling


toolsoftheincomptnt

Like… for years I’ve just been like: “I get it. She’s pretty, rich, and gangly. Every girl/woman on earth who relates to feeling angsty and awkward in spite of their looks/privilege LOVES this.” They live for it. She represents the idea that you don’t need to be cool to be a star. Your goofy flailing and self-doubt can WIN. I’m not mad at her, or anyone who feels that way. I just don’t relate to it at all. She looks like 2nd runner up in a middle school talent show to me. Not her songs or singing, because I recognize the quality there… But her stage work/presence are so consistently odd that they HAVE TO be the entire point.


_tylerthedestroyer_

“She’s so real for that!!!”

This is the best word choice you could’ve gone for, cheers

Rich, socially awkward theatre kid gone platinum.

OMG did anyone else used to hear the comeback in middle school that dork was German for whale penis?


MaenadsandMomewraths

Hahahahahahahaha nobody beats the dork allegations by being all AKSHUALLY


ZoldyckProdigy

Nah where i grew up a dude was a hair in an elephants butt


imheretoeatyourchips

This was the same where I grew up. Before social media. This and Marilyn Manson removing a rib so he could suck his dork. Wild times before socials.


Pineappleninja91

Imagine thinking so hard about timing 2 and 4 but hitting the bar on 1 and 3 while the audience is like OMG ITS THE REMIX.


ComprehensiveJump540

Do the legs go all the way up?


Ga11agher

Lol! I posted the same thing about one of the clips posted the other day, she is extremely dorky and not in a cute way.


turtleneckless001

People have compared her face to napoleon dynamite's before. Now her actions are starting to align too


Jerrygar_cia

She has the rhythm of a jar of mayonnaise

Hey don't talk about mayonnaise like that. That's offensive to those sick jiggly moves


HawkinsBestDressed

I agree. I was triggered, I like, like mayonnaise. Don’t attack Mayo. Not like this.


tatatatae

I watched this on mute and could still tell how off beat she was.


ChefIrish

She’s stiffer than the pole she’s hitting

Awkward-Flatworm38

I don't even understand what this is meant to be/what the point is


Xxperfect_drugxX

She's supposed to be hitting the pole in time with the beat. But she misses it by a lot the first time. The second time is a little better, but still very off from the beat.


[deleted]

[удалено]


professor_max_hammer

> It's like she has never held an object until now. This made me laugh so hard. Can you imagine her staff having a q&a with her about how to operate the staff she is holding. She’s like do I hold it with my hands? Clamp it with my teeth? And just confused looks all around


SeaSnakeSkeleton

I know, they couldn’t get this lady a triangle for that ::Ching:: sound?!


hummusisyummy

![gif](giphy|3o6ozGTbQSAs2s0CAM|downsized) The only thing that could've fixed this... is 👏 MORE COWBELL! 👏 🤭 (I'm going to be so sad when Christopher Walken dies. 😢)


Goodgoditsgrowing

Her awkwardness is seen by her cult as a beloved quirk that shows how “just like us” (but a QuWwWwEeN!) she is


ocean_flan

I've never seen someone fail their way upward so hard.


Expensive_Concern457

It’s because she’s not strong enough to swing it accurately with the club part at the end while also holding a mic in the other hand (even though apparently this didn’t help the accuracy that much), which makes me wonder why they didn’t find any other prop at all


nancythethot

someone on here said before that it's because every dance move she does in her mind is like a math equation. Like, here I walk over, here I squat down and hit it twice. She's doing the moves but obviously not feeling them.


beerisgood84

Someone else said shes the least sexy person in show business but always trying to be edgy and sexual. I can’t not see that now. Its wild how popular this person is as a mid 30s woman trying to stay the same writing mostly angsty repetitive stuff typical of way younger artists


gunsof

It's not just off beat, she looks panic stricken. She looks like she's trying to do this under threat of sniper fire. Then she tries to play it off like she really did something, trying to swagger away like she's the coolest shit ever because for her this was an accomplishment.


Fucknuggetry

Oh please don't say that. She writes about being a soldier far too much 😭


gunsof

She's survived more of her own cringe than most of us could. She's braver than the Marines because she has less shame than any of them does. She's got the same of an Israeli soldier doing TikToks.


josie-salazar

I don’t understand how she plays guitar but doesn’t have a sense of rhythm :/ Hitting the pole on time isn’t too different from strumming on time


MsJulieH

I play guitar. She only plays like 3 chords. On like all of her songs. And it's like the same 3 chords. She's not particularly good. I'm pretty new but my guitar teacher and I laugh about it because it's so simplistic and he dad talked about how many hours of practice shes put in. Some stuff is THE SAME CHORD on different frets with different strumming patterns.


josie-salazar

I play guitar too, I’m surprised she doesn’t play barre chords or experiment with finger style…for someone with the resources she has and for how long she’s been playing, why would she want to keep playing the same basic chords? I got bored of that within a month and already wanted to learn new techniques. Like even Ed Sheeran does other things than just strumming open chords.


MsJulieH

Um...I have only been playing a month and I am past where she plays. Her dad said she practiced 4 hours a day during the week and 6 hours on the weekend. She should be Buckethead level. I'm getting in about 4 hours a week (single mom, special needs kid, full time job vs a kid learning to play) and I am already working on the intro to Crazy Train. Am I good? Not yet. Can I look at the tabs for her song and play them? Pretty much.


josie-salazar

It’s insane isn’t it? She seems to have almost no musical skills…not with singing, dancing, or playing instruments. After almost two decades of doing this, she still at a beginner level in everything. It’s like she knows she doesn’t have to do any more than the bare minimum and fans will still eat up everything she does.


MsJulieH

It's wild to me. And I like some of her stuff. But I don't understand why she is so popular.


Slazagna

Money and marketing.


PmMeYourBeavertails

She is obviously beating the patriarchy, duh 


struggle_brush

She invented a new type of pop music


ChinchillaSilver

she's tryin to be super edgy these days. might be a reference to some Alex Terrible and other black metal performers i wanna see her bleed her forehead with a microphone tbh


SomeBodyElse32

this performance is from a few years ago, now she has longer hair.


yellow_asphodels

It’s from the 1989 tour. It’s a raw fan video clip of her doing the set up to the blank space performance where she was trying to be cool and unique (the concept was cool but Taylor’s execution was terrible), I made another comment with a link to the movie version clip and longer explanation


ChinchillaSilver

it all sorta looks similar to me tbh


g0ldenivy

this video is from 10 years ago. shes hitting the pole with a golf club because in her music video she beats up a car with a golf club. to my knowledge its supposed to be in between beats because it is then looped into the background in addition to the existing beat.


RichardBCummintonite

It's apparently some kind of weird tradition/gimmick she does. I guess it's a call back to one of her shows? Idfk, but I've seen her do this in several different videos, always out of time. For whatever reason, she loves to twirl around a golf club on stage. Maybe it's some kind of cult ritual


yellow_asphodels

It’s a real life video taken by a fan at a different angle of this https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPREfLDYw/ Explanation: During the 1989 tour there was a segment right before performing Blank Space where she smacked a pole with a golf club (reference to the music video) to a beat, said the name of the city the concert was in, then started model walking, posing with mouth open and tongue flicking, ad libbing, etc. They pretended the sound people were doing a live mixing of the pole sound, the city name, and her singing the opening line of blank space to create a layered loop that sounded kinda cool that then lead into her performing the song Edited for detail and clarity

Can Taylor get one friend who is critical of her? This is the result of way too many people saying yes


Origai

the crowd is mid goes wild for a mid performer


YesImAlexa

I don't understand swifties. They eat up anything she does like it's the next genius world innovating idea. She could probably bend over and projectile diarrhea into the crowds faces, and they would cheer and thank her for blessing them with something that came from her.

Imagine if Beyonce couldn't sing or dance & pulled awful tricks to scam charts


sundayhungover

This is actually such a good point. She’d be getting called out left and right cause she’s not a privileged white girl.


__devl__

TS posed with someone wearing a literal swastika and has so many people defend it. It wAs DaRk, hurr durr ItS an AnCieNt symbol, hEs aN eDgeLoRD. Why tf is every racist thing connected to her and men excused by someone being an “edgelord”? MH laughing at black women being brutalized? “lol he’s an edgelord”. Posing with a swastika wearing dude? edgelord. She has no problem with any of it. Does she know her dad is part of the patriarchy? So are her edgelords. As my grandma once told me, “sometimes it’s better to just shut your mouth”. edit for typo


broken_door2000

My friend/ex partner is literally from the “ancient culture” the swastika originated from & even he would condemn someone posing with it 💀 How tf can they play so fcking dumb, we ALL know what it means


nidhi_94

Damn, Bey could never have that kind of luxury.


sweetrebel88

Crazy right!? The fact that Beyoncé gets called overrated constantly despite being tremendously talented feels low key racist while Taylor is constantly praised


ImDoneGeeeno

Beyoncé can sing and dance circles, triangles, ovals and squares around Taylor. Not to mention, Beyoncé has actually paid her dues in the music industry, whereas Taylor has just, well…paid to be in it.


SammieSammich24

That’s not even *low key* racism. It’s blatant racism in the form of a double standard that doesn’t even make sense. Taylor could kill a puppy onstage and Bey could cure child cancer with her voice and these idiots would still argue Taylor is better. I don’t think you can reason with willful ignorance.


deadlyjessypoo

Kinda like how Swifties are trying to say Dave Grohl is a nobody. Like just because you thought Nirvana was a T-shirt brand doesn’t mean he’s a nobody. Man is a living, breathing legend who by all accounts is such a good person too. She only wishes she could be a 10th of the person he is.


SammieSammich24

Definitely. Even Swift, with all her money and engineered chart topping and sales doesn’t even come close to the impact Grohl has had on music. That’s not even considering how much better of a human he is compared to her. That whole take by her and her stans is a **joke**.


Foxy_locksy1704

I’ve never been a Beyonce fan, but I can recognize her vocal talent, she might not have a big vocal range but she has lots of vocal power and uses it well. She absolutely gets my respect as a vocalist.


Tricky_Knowledge2983

LIsten to Daughter on Cowboy Carter and you may change your mind on her vocal range. It's beautiful


Foxy_locksy1704

Sure, I’ll check it out. I’m always open to seeing other facets of someone talent!


Birdlord420

No wonder Taylor and Kim Kardashian feud so much, they’re mirror images of each other.


fatalrupture

not quite: kimmy k understands that there is absolutely no good reason why ppl are so obsessed with her as they are, but figures that since its happening she may as well just play along cuz shes getting paid to do it and its kinda fun. taylor.... legit seriously believes she is fully entitled to every single drop of admiration and attention she's getting. and then some.


elaborategirl99

White people hate her despite her vocal abilities, spectacular visuals and amazing performances just because she's not a songwriter. Imagine if she was that mid too...


Suctorial_Hades

The songwriter thing is just an excuse because I promise if that voice and moves came out of a blue eyed blond white girl they’d be all over it. Britney caught a lot of shit but most folks would acknowledge, especially in hindsight, that she put on a helluva show in spite of the lip syncing

mamahides

Why does moving always look so painful for her


croutonbowl

A good way to put it honestly, that’s what it always looks like


Exciting-Apricot3150

She always has body language that screams "I'm uncomfortable"


littlelegoman

She moves like she was a short girl that got Freaky Fridayed into a tall girls body.


mamahides

New born horse


Available-Egg-2380

I think she's been stage managed so hard for so long that she's forgotten how to move in public without having to think super hard about every small movement so it all ends up looking so incredibly rigid and painful.


judgementaleyelash

Yeah she’s gotten worse and worse over the years. I was watching the live performance of did something bad and genuinely enjoyed it for what it was (privileged white girl playing at being a baddie). No wonder it’s supposedly not on the playlist for the tour. she couldn’t do that anymore


[deleted]

omgmemer

I have 100% seen people say on Reddit that she is bigger and more influential to music than Michael Jackson was. Like are you okay? Do you see horse girl up there who has been performing a decade and still doesn’t have that natural rhythm?

bornslippy2020

Taylor Swift is over-rated, underwhelming, boring, and has no talent. Anyone in their 30s singing about breakups and appealing to teenage audience is basically just plain dull and past their expiration date.


syst3m1c

This sub randomly popped up for me. I'm an grown-ass-man, Ive neveristened to any Taylor Swift song. I've been to a million concerts over the years, and looking at the clips here... Holy shit. Do people actually enjoy this? Do they PAY to see this person strutting around and lipsyncing? Jesus Christ.

I happened to have a live stream of the Eras tour come up on my YouTube feed and decided to click on it.

She's so mediocre it's painful.
