This post, here, is a rarity, friends. This is, in all likelihood, the only time you will ever hear me mention Taylor Swift, or any mainstream celebrity, on this site. I don’t do celebrity gossip. It is not conceivably possible that I could care less. I’m well informed on my geek culture, but mainstream pop culture? Nuh-uh. To give you an example, when I first started hearing the name Taylor Swift, I honestly thought she was one of those winners of that show AMERICAN IDOL or one of its clones. (I’ve never watched any of those shows, either, and I never will.) That’s how out of touch I am with tabloid culture, and how miniscule of a rat’s ass I actually give about it.
I mention Swift’s latest video because someone tipped me off that she was a zombie in it, and seen luxuriating in a bathtub (filled with jewels, unfortunately, and not blood) ala Elizabeth Bathory. I watched the video. It’s cool. Stylish. And while I’ve never found Swift particularly attractive–she’s way too stereotypical Barbie doll for my tastes–she’s hot as hell in the video. She’s even sexy while in zombie makeup. Not sure what that says about me, but I like what I like. Give me reanimated dead Taylor over everyday, magazine cover Taylor ANY day. She’ll be the actress starring in MY bad dreams for awhile.
Hey, whatever floats your boat, sahib!
