  1. If it means making 64 million bucks, I wish the patriarchy would have held ME back!!

  2. Oh man, is Taylor ever a beauty. I'm surprised she went into music instead of being a supermodel, but to each their own, it's not like she's hurting for income :)

  3. That's a hell of a lot of dough. I definitely went into the wrong line of work!!

  4. I'm pretty sure Taylor's a real female, but if she's not, that's some mighty fine work, doctors!

  5. Me too, and I'm a plain looking guy! Shoot, I'd get up on stage and sing about falling in love with guys for that kind of dough, and you wouldn't have to give me any alcohol either!!

  6. Anonymous But Lil' Taylie is adorable :) (Most guys are TS fans even if we don't listen to her music)

  7. People have to understand, 'standard' pop music is all about the projection of the performer's image, and not nearly as much about moving or relatable creative expression. It's done this way deliberately--the music industry recognizes that certain sounds and certain elements of image can be brought together to produce a certain carefully-constructed culturally-based product that there is still an enormous market for, and possibly always will be. Frankly, there's a huge money-making industry behind generic popular music--and there's nothing wrong with that. It's no accident that the most noticeable thing about so many pop stars is their higher than normal (sometimes much higher) level of physical attractiveness, because that's the single most important aspect of being strikingly noticeable as one human being among many on the planet. In order for music to quickly become very popular, the performer has to be noticed, and the music has be non-challenging to absorb quickly, even to the point of being widely perceived as being generic. Have a little beauty like Taylor Swift crooning about her 'baby', and there's a good chance that you're going somewhere. Have an ordinary, plain-looking girl or guy singing a loud, abrasive punk song about corruption in government, and it's much harder to market widely. Put yourself in the businessman's shoes---money never stinks, even if the music often does ;)

  8. When I was teaching college, on occasion I permitted off-topic discussions for classes with exceptionally smart students. One such discussion turned to How to choose a Mate. My off-hand remark was: "If you guys spent as much time picking a mate, as you do picking a car or a computer, there would be far fewer divorces." Choosing a life-long mate is not a trivial matter, regardless what many people may think. The criteria for such decision should be very high indeed.
