Taylor Swift Photographed by Mario Testino for the February Issue of Vogue

Not really a fan but she looks really good here

I’m sorry, but this killed me a little bit inside. I do not listen to Taylor Swift, but I have seen enough pictures and videos of her to understand that this is not even KIND OF a representation of how she ever presents herself. The makeup she has on makes her look like her eyes are hollowed out, and her face is unhealthily gaunt. Why the fuck is this considered attractive?! Especially in comparison to how she usually looks. “she looks really good here”. What?!No, she looks ridiculous. She looks half dead, like she is incapable of forming facial expressions, and like for the first time in her career she has changed everything about herself to fit someone else’s definition of attractive. I mean, sure, whatever, maybe she totally loves looking like this and that’s her own fucking deal. I guess my greater irritation with this is that women find it attractive to look this way. To have that dead, stoic, empty look. Fuck this. Seriously. I would rather see a curly haired, smiling, goofy, less makeup wearing Taylor Swift any day. The girl is naturally gorgeous, and this is just….gross.
