Why is it important to not talk publicly about who or what [your songs are] about?
OLIVIA RODRIGO — for the TODAY Show, September 2023
The Sparkly Lavendar Purple Goo that keeps Taylor Swift alive, a hypothesis 🧐:
Alright we all picked up on the repeat visual of the sparkly purple goo that comes out of Taylor in Anti Hero as a visual representation of her queerness BUT I really watched again and I have some *thoughts* I’m gonna dump into the ether
First time we see the Goo is almost immediately, as Taylor cracks open an over easy Egg. She seems perplexed by it and a little bit disgusted—what are eggs? The beginning of all mammalian life. To me, this reads as Taylor acknowledging her queerness from birth and being confused and scared and maybe even grossed out by it at first, which given the time period she was a child is VERY on point
Next time we see it is when she’s sneaking into the party trying to be a normal human woman, and instead causes a scene that scares people to the point she gets shot with an arrow directly into her heart. She begins leaking the same purple goo that came out of the egg
She is surprised she was shot, she even takes the time to show everyone that she is bleeding out this purple sparkle goo and no one reacts to help, besides to be grossed out
Her solution isn’t to yell at or question the people who shot her, but rather to cover up her literal bleeding heart with a button
This whole scene reads to me as her becoming louder with her queerness as she aged, and it scaring the shit out of the adults/people around her. *Again, when she was young, it was not acceptable to be openly gay, it just wasn’t* They panic and maybe tell her it’s a phase, not to talk about it, and eventually over time, when it becomes apparent it’s not a phase, she is forced into closeting. Any hopes of living a life true to her gay ass purple heart is silenced by the need to win awards and make money for literally hundreds of other people (vote for me for everything so I can become famous and rich for many other people that are counting on me)
The final time we see the purple goo is after she’s been drinking more than she seems to want to, and after she’s drunk, she pukes purple goo all over the lap of Performance Taylor
She has tried her entire career to hide her true purple sparkle heart, but when her inhibitions are lowered when she drinks, it all comes pouring out of her into the lap of the sexy cool girl hetero character she’s been forced to play—ruining the mirage, the bait and switch, the performance with her super gay truth. It’s a lot, and it hurts my heart for her, what a life she’s lived
Bonus Purple Goo Point that I don’t know exactly what to do with: In The Man, her wall pee is the same sparkly purple 🧐 which was a choice and possibly ab Easter egg for Anti Hero visuals
Thanks for letting me think out loud here 💜

olivia rodrigo set herself up years ago as a young female pop icon and she just tricked millions into listening to melodic punk + alt fem rock. love her for that.
fuck these “i need to be fucked” posts. I need to be motherfucking kissed. throw me against a wall and kiss me like i’m the love of your goddamn life and you didn’t think you’d ever find me.
"I think they've been together awhile and she's finally ready to show him off"
