with her being in the news recently with her new album, we had a discussion at work on how we would rank her with other celebrities.
Room was pretty split 50/50 with half the people saying she's too rail thin with no curves at all. While the other half saying she was stunning and looked way better than some supermodels at the Victoria Secret fashion show last week.
As always, curious to hear BBI's input on these topics. How would you guys rate Taylor Swift?
She's the Tupac of this generation.

Doesn't interest me...
she writes good songs
Compaired to others.
I find her music less annoying and cringe-worthy than a lot of the other music they like.
As for looks I think she kind of unique looking.

Hahaha.. it's so funny that he keeps trying new handles but keeps typing the haikus every time which gives it away.
And NYG27 Learn to post pictures when you start this kind of thread.
So far a great role model.
A few music genres I don't like but appreciate the talent.
What's not to like?
Her and Kloss are "BFF's". But rumored to be more. I'm guessing that's what the previous post was alluding to
Her tour made $55 million last year and Celebrity Net Worth has her at $200 million.
Very pretty, smart and rich, and a good songwriter >>> Victoria's Secret Supermodel, except for the very top ones, who are mainly also smart and rich as well as gorgeous.
When is the last time you made 55 mil on a year and were ever worth 200 mil? Especially at 25?
Think maybe her cpa's think she needs a write off or she'll make a few million on them?
Selling 500,000 pair on her name alone at $20 a pop is how much?
Yep, piss poor accomplishment.
Secondly, she is very talented as well as beautiful.

From Wiki.
"Taylor Alison Swift (born December 13, 1989) is an American singer-songwriter. Raised in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, Swift moved to Nashville, Tennessee at the age of 14 to pursue a career in country music. She signed with the independent label Big Machine Records and became the youngest songwriter ever hired by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house. The release of Swift's self-titled debut album in 2006 established her as a country music star. Her third single, "Our Song," made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number one song on the Hot Country Songs chart. She received a Best New Artist nomination at the 2008 Grammy Awards.
Suburb of Redding.
She was into country music before she was 14.
I grew up on a farm 25 miles from downtown Manhattan.
You and I have a way different definition of country.
As for the looks, she certainly isn't ugly but she looks a lot prettier because she's worth nine figures, and because those nine figures can pay for some pretty amazing makeup artists.
I want to "date" her. Mainly so she'll write a song about me.

No, she isn't a very good singer. She's a solid entertainer and a world class entertainment professional.
In today's world, the latter two are much more likely to lead to success than the former. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of better singers, but so what?
The sad irony is that with modern-level autotuning equipment, the good entertainer with decent tonal quality will outsell the excellent singer. That is not changing back.

LOL
Joking or not, you need a smack for even writing that.
I stopped paying for country music when the Dixie Chicks were shelved.
Natalie Maines is a great singer.
I'm not big into voluptuous women but ultra-skinny ones are YECK!

in calling Taylor Swift overrated (at 15 the girl wrote and performed a song that topped the charts and is still being played) while lamenting the fall of the Dixie Chicks, who were themselves mostly pop country.
Natalie Maines is a great singer.
Natalie Maines is the one who gave them the pop sound. Prior to that they were obscure and as much bluegrass as country.
No one really disputes that Martina McBride and Carrie Underwood and even Natalie Maines have better voices than Taylor Swift. The issue is whether she's a better entertainer, and while I'm not a fan she does write her own crap and has since she was an age where most kids struggle to get up on time for school.

with tons of celeb guys, let's call it 'dating'. Like Adele, she's made money off of being dumped. She needs to eat a cheeseburger or two. And her live performances could not be successful without audio assistance. So whatevs. Teenie boppers love her. That's fine. And there's nothing wrong with Meghan Trainor (aesthetically - speaking)

So much jelly.
What's the problem then?
