You do you, Taylor, and if you wanna strip down to the bare essentials then do your thing.

On Monday the 27-year-old released a few trailers for her latest music video, because apparently in 2017 there are now trailers for music videos.

The single is called ‘Ready For It’, and you can bet it will be a giant pile of shite played non-stop on commercial radio stations across the country.

First up, the trailer:

Saucy.

The Telegraph with why some people are a little taken aback:

In a 2014 magazine interview, the pop star insisted she would not be stripping off like some of her pop rivals.

“I find it relatively easy to keep my clothes on because I don’t really feel like taking them off,” she told America’s Glamour magazine.

“It’s not an urge I have. For me risky is revealing what really happened in my life through music.

“Risky is writing confessional songs and telling the true story about a person with enough details so everyone knows who that person is. That’s putting myself out there, maybe even more than taking my shirt off.”

Whatever, people change, but the new Taylor is so, like, edgy.

Her recent song, Look What You Made Me Do, had all these disses, and she even uses cryptic snake emojis. Kinda like her marketing team thought she should change things up, and her songwriting team followed suit.

I think The Onion deserve a shout out for this headline. They’re a satirical site, just to be clear.

Warning – foul language ahead.

Here’s their headline – Taylor Swift Unveils Even Darker Persona With New Single ‘Skullfucking Maggot Shit Boyfriend’.

Perfection.

More bad language ahead as we quote from that Onion piece:

In a dramatic break from the singer’s past incarnations, including her more aggressive recent image, Taylor Swift unveiled an even darker persona Friday with the release of her new single, “Skullfucking Maggot Shit Boyfriend.”

“From the moment we see her chewing the entrails of a bound-and-gagged man wrapped in coils of barbed wire, it’s obvious this is a version of Taylor we definitely haven’t seen before,” said Billboard magazine writer Joseph Wohl in a post analyzing [sic] the new song and its accompanying music video, which feature graphic images of self-mutilation, a bass line sampled from a recording of cattle slaughter, and multiple lyrical references to genocide.

“In the pre-chorus, when she sings, ‘I’m going to hatefuck you till the worms feast on your eyes,’ it’s not clear if she’s referring to ex-boyfriend Tom Hiddleston, her rival Katy Perry, or her ongoing feud with Kanye West. But it’s obvious from the bursts of industrial noise and mid-song interlude involving an imagined phone call with serial killer John Wayne Gacy that this new Taylor isn’t playing around.”

Almost like everyone can see through the gimmick…
