These Taylor Swift photos just remind me of how stupid I was to cut myself some bangs to cover a minor burn that healed within a week. Damn it! Stupid side-swept bangs trauma. To be fair, mine are a lot easier to deal with than Swifty’s bangs, which are way too thick. These pics are from yesterday’s taping of The Late Show with David Letterman. Swifty wore a little black cocktail dress for her dumpster-posing. The dress is Antonio Berardi. It’s okay. Not my favorite, but it’s better than Swifty’s favorite high-waisted shorts.
During her interview with Dave, Swifty talked about her new gig as a “Welcome Ambassador for NYC.” Swifty says that the gig doesn’t pay, which I guess is good. She says:
“I don’t get any money for it. I’d been obsessing over moving to New York for a year but I didn’t find the perfect place until winter last year. So, I’ve been there ever since and I had the most amazing summer here. All my friends are here! When I love something, I’m very, very vocal about it. Any time I talk to anyone or any time I do an interview, I’m like, ‘You don’t understand. You have to go there now. You have to go to New York. Just drop what you’re doing, and go there. It’s amazing. It’s the greatest place ever.’ And I guess the city picked up on that. They’re like, ‘She’s the most enthusiastic, obnoxious person to ever love New York. She loves it with like 18 exclamation points afterward, underlined.’”
She also talks about her friendship with Lena Dunham and all of that “OMG girlfriends!” stuff. Here’s one video clip of Swifty talking about how she loves NYC:
And here’s her performance of “Welcome to New York”. I’m not crazy about this song.
Meanwhile, Taylor basically admitted that she wrote “All You Had to Do Was Stay” right after Harry Styles dumped her. So much for how she never confirms or denies who she’s talking about in her blind-item songs, right?

1) That dress with the green racing stripe is horrible.
2) I can’t bring myself to listen to that song but I am looking at those poor women behind her who I am assuming can actually sing (because back up singers usually can) and thinking about the fact that Tay-tay’s voice sounds like the equivalent of a piece of cardboard and yet she is the one who is well-known for being a singer… what a mindf*ck.
I’ve been hearing more of her new album and have come to realize how lucky I was before.
What do you mean that you were lucky before? That you had been spared her whackness??:) Share please.
When I hadn’t heard the album.
Kiddo lit her cockatiel candles, had two many Fonzies over ice, and downloaded 1989 to her iPod and…well, she just hasn’t been the same since.
I just pressed play on Welcome to New York just for sh-ts and giggles.
Guys, I’m gonna take a few days off. I need to reassess my life choices and pour hot wax in my ears.
How did Letterman not slap the unicorn out of her after that?
It’s muzak or supermarket strolling tripe. Jaderu. It’s really really bad.
it’s bizarre that the tourism board picked someone who has lived there for a hot second to represent NYC. but i guess she’s famous and gets a lot of press? not that NYC needs more tourists, you can’t freaking go anywhere anymore without being trampled by their herds.
She looks like a big ol’ blond yummy cool mint oreo.
Wait, is that Swiftbatch or the real thing?
That reminds me. I wonder if they make oreo scented candles?
Off to the google machine.
Enjoy it now, NYC, because once she breaks up with your ass, there will be revenge songs about it. Believe it.
Lmao I cannot wait to hear that single.
Jaderu, Kiddo, lyrics. Now.
Kiddo is the lyricist. She can drop a rhyme any time. *dubstep bass drop*
I’m just here for the tatertots and general buffoonery.
Oh yeah and I’m here for cake. Is there any cake left?
I don’t do jingles and comedy show theme songs. That’s exactly what her new album sounds like to me. Whoever said it three times yesterday was right, the entire thing is like one big terrible commercial.
And repeated twice. Don’t make me go find it.
It should be posted again. Not as good as ROBYNSING’s comment, but it’s up there amongst the greats.
I can’t do it, I’ve already bombed this thread too much. Henceforth, I now sanction said buffoonery to be Kiddo’s responsibility.
I must have those red shoes!
I think she should give them to you right now, because that, um, dress was made for ice skates.
She’s entered her Carrie Bradshaw “I’m dating the City!” Phase. Transformation is near completion.
Thank god Paris will take her next.
What can I say, I’m a fan and I’ve loved her style these last few months and if living in NYC has anything to do with that should stay there! However, I dislike this dress.
I bought her new album yesterday and am listening the S**T out of it. I have been off pop music for a couple of years except for the odd song and this is really fun. It’s innocent pop, not trashy. Perfect for Swifty 🙂
God. I hate new York and I’ve lived here for twenty years. I dont understand why she loves it. But to each his own I guess. On the other hand, I still dont get what’s so great about her. She bores me for the most part.
having a $hitload of disposable income makes ny, and any other place, a different experience.
This. I love NYC because I can leave. If I actually had to live & work there, I’m afraid I would become somewhat temperamental.
Hahaha I thought the same thing, I’m like she must live in Woody Allen’s version of NY, all rich and white. I Hate it here and am trying to leave but transferring my teaching license is looking to be a nuisance. Boo.
Has anyone done that before? Transferred teaching license to another state? I’m not in the union.
The entire album is basically about Harry Styles. I find that so exhausting as they only dated for a couple months! She hints in the song, All you had to do was stay, that Harry tried calling her to get back with her, which I don’t believe. Wasn’t Taylor the one who flew to London to talk/stalk and he wasn’t having it? He stayed on that island and partied when they broke up, doesn’t sound like he was too depressed about it.
Im trying to place the music because I have heard parts of it in 2 famous songs of yester year like the songs are on the tip of my tongue but can’t frasp them yet. Anywho.. Song seems more Broadway musical (or is it her tone) than pop. She moved to New York so she can have a new identity according to song lyrics.. and her vast wardrobe changes & pap walks show she picked a fictional character from a television show. New York Tourism then chooses the newly come to life Carrie Bradshaw Doll.. I mean reinvented Taylor Swift as their Spokesperson an expert in NYC having lived there for a hot second. Ok tongue in cheek…. No one finds it odd this white wash of NYC came right on the heels of the 1St NYC Ebola confirmation? When media is in a frenzy as NYC is the hub of everything global especially finance?
Didn’t we already do this whole wild eyed wonder, girl moving to the big city with someone from The Hills?
The only NYC Swift represents are the chain businesses and tourists in Times Square. You know she had no idea who Dr Zizmor is.
dr. zizmor! lol the plague of the subway system. who WOULDN’T trust their skin to him?
