      Fair, and Taylor’s job is to bounce around on stage and hype up a crowd while lip syncing to music she sometimes writes. And much like the point of movies, the end goal of all of it is to put on a production that entertains the audience.

        I don’t necessarily disagree with Taylor in particular, just flagging the incorrect comparison.

        If we say “she’s a performance brand, not a musician” then it just means people are paying a shitton of money to be in the same room as her vs paying for actual talent-based performance.
