(bright electric guitar rhythms)
- Taylor Swift drops
her savage new video for
Look What You Made Me Do At The VMAs,
so let's break it down.
Hey guys, it's Ali for Hollywood Life
and we already did a break
down of the song and lyrics,
link to that is below,
but the new official video
did drop some new references
to Taylor and her many enemies,
including Taylor herself.
T. Swift puts herself atop a mountain
of old, dead personas.
The ballerina from Shake It Off,
the nerd girl from You Belong
With Me, and many others.
This is Taylor rising from the grave
that Kim Kardashian's
Taylor Swift Is Over party
put her in.
There are serious Thriller vibes here.
But let's get to what's new.
This time there is a direct
reference to Kim Kardashian.
(snake hisses)
- What are you doing?
- Getting receipts.
I'm gonna edit this later.
- She's definitely calling out Kim
for manipulating that video Kim took
that supposedly, we think, exposed Taylor
for lying about Kanye West's song Famous.
But Taylor also takes
aim at the old Taylor.
- What's with that bitch?
- Don't call me that!
- Ya'll.
- Oh stop acting like you're
all nice, you are so fake.
(Old Taylor cries)
- Oh there she goes,
playing the victim again.
- The snake Taylor is also on the runway,
but we she seems to be saying
this is only one of her many faces.
Part of her reputation,
not her entire new persona.
But we'll have to wait for
the full album Reputation
to drop this fall to know how dark
T. Swift has really gone.
