History YMMV / TaylorSwift

** Outside of music, Swifites are generally friendly with Kansas City Chiefs fans, especially after Taylor started dating Travis Kelce.

** Outside of music, Swifites are generally friendly with Kansas City Chiefs fans, especially after Taylor started dating Travis.

** Taylor's and Music/{{BTS}}'s fandom are friendly toward each other since BTS are unabashedly huge fans of Taylor. For her part, Taylor is one of the few Western artist who consistently interact with them and respect their artistry.
** You can see the Civil War fans crying tears of joy when "Safe and Sound (Taylor's Version)" is released as both of the group members are featured on the song, given that both of them broke up and has not been seen together in a decade.

** She's popular in Litherland, Formby and Southport, more so than anywhere else! A big name there, almost to Creator/DavidHasselhoff proportions.

** While in the US ''Speak Now'' is usually overshadowed by the monstrous success of ''Fearless'' and ''Red'', this album is absolutely beloved in South Korea, with many Koreans idols stated this is their favorite albums and are frequently requested by their fans to cover songs from the album. This can be attributed to the Speak Now tour being the first (and so far ''only'') time she visited the country.
* GirlShowGhetto: While she has been breaking out of this mold with both her business savvy and crossover appeal, she still gets a sizable amount of criticism for writing songs that are aimed directly at young women.

* EvilIsSexy: In the "You Belong With Me" video, Taylor also plays the abusive girlfriend in the LoveTriangle. For the prom scene, she's in a very [[LadyInRed vampy red dress]] that makes her look quite appealing.

** [[https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/ae5x8a/cant-shake-it-off-how-taylor-swift-became-a-nazi-idol She was very popular among Neo-Nazis and alt-right types]] due to being an attractive Caucausian female artist with a GirlNextDoor image and them perceiving her silence on her political beliefs to mean she was conservative. This seems to have gone away after Swift [[https://www.instagram.com/p/BopoXpYnCes/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link publicly came out]] to support Democrat candidates in the 2018 midterm elections (specifically for house and senate). Although she had also been quietly threatening legal action against a few websites that had been saying she was their Aryan princess for a while before she stated her political beliefs. Compare [[https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/7d0jie/this_is_straight_up_bullying_taylor_swift_chose/]] and contrast [[https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/9mvjcr/personally_i_have_absolutely_zero_problem_with/]] r/The_Donald's take on her pre and post her announcing her support of Democrats. She probably lost the few holdouts once she released the single “You Need To Calm Down “ which is her most politically charged song ever. She’s explicitly supporting LGBT rights (made more clear in the lyric video) and calling out toxic online masculinity.

* HypeBacklash: For a period in the late 2010s, following the release of ''1989'', she was ''everywhere'', well beyond the point of overexposure. Enough that Swift herself has acknowledged it, saying [[http://www.cbsnews.com/news/taylor-swift-i-think-people-might-need-a-break-from-me/ "I think people may need a break from me"]] in regards to her planned 2016 sabbatical. She moved to London for about a year where she lived pretty much anonymously due to the UK’s strict paparazzi laws.

** "Mean" becomes downright painful to listen to when considering the whole Kanye West/Kim Kardashian incident and the groping DJ lawsuit. Especially lyrics like "Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me."

** After Laith Ashley - the actor who portrated the lead love interest from the "Lavender Haze" music video, confirmed that there are multiple different queer people in the background of the partying scene music videos, LGBT fans have been rewatching and "claiming" different people from the scene as their own.

** "Hits Different" and "You're Losing Me" instantly became fan favorite when they are released on ''Midnights'' despite only being Deluxe Bonus tracks and the former wasn't available for streaming 6 months later after its release.

--> '''Taylor Swift''': I'm sorry. The old Taylor can't come to the phone right now. Why? Oh! Cause she's dead.
* CrossTheLineTwice: "Blank Space". The abuse Taylor('s character) heaps upon her boyfriend [[MoodWhiplash alternates between serious and hilarious]] until it gets to the point that it's ''only'' hilarious.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: ''The Eras Tour'' is supposed to be a celebration of her music up to 2022, but the DemotedToExtra treatment of ''Speak Now'' and the debut album (the former only has one song in the permanent setlist while the latter has ''none'' at all) has left quite a few numbers of fans unhappy, particularly with all FreezeFrameBonus foreshadowing ''Speak Now'' has received for the ''Midnights'' release cycle. Of course, given that both albums are still owned by Big Machine Record at the time of the tour and their content is not as mainstream as ''1989'' and ''reputation'', this can be a case of PragmaticAdaptation. She finally added an extra song from ''Speak Now'' to the permanent setlist after the release of the rerecord.

** Not all of the "Taylor's Version" songs were received as warmly as the original, particularly those from early albums whose tone and content fit more with a woman in her early 20s than one in her 30s. Notable examples are "You Belong With Me" from ''Fearless'' and "22" and "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" from ''Red''.

* HoYay:

** "Fearless" has the lyrics "And I don't know why / But with you I'd dance in a storm /In my best dress / Fearless". During a few dates of her "Eras" tour in 2023, Taylor faced some extreme weather in outdoor venues - the show went on, so she did in fact end up dancing in high end dresses in the middle of storms.
