Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are engaged to be married!!! With fans rejoicing that Taylor has FINALLY been chosen and celebrating that it’s never too late to find love (even if you’re God forbid 35 years old)--we know, there may be more to this story, or performance, rather. This episode, I’m joined by “Performance Artlor” expert Sabrina Fleetwood!!! to discuss the theory that Taylor Swift is not just a performer onstage, but in the public eye as well. Today we’re doing a deep dive into this theory, dissecting the public’s reaction to the engagement (TM), and examining this new era of Taylor Swift’s performance, with her anticipated new album, The Life of a Showgirl.Join my Patreon here!Subscribe to my Youtube here!Access support here!
My unfiltered thoughts on the ENGAGEMENT: here!Wow. Just wow. Taylor Swift announced that her new album, TS12, will be called The Life of a Showgirl! With fans around the world rushing to find Easter Eggs in her announcement posts, one thing seems obvious (even to Tayvis stans distracted by The New Heights podcast): that Taylor Swift is embodying Ophelia on the album cover.Will her fate, or rather, the showgirl version of herself’s fate, end up just like Ophelia’s? What if Taylor is BOTH Ophelia AND Hamlet in her story? And what if these connections don’t end at Hamlet…this episode, Hailey uncovers a whole new meaning to the statement: “Taylor Swift is the modern day Shakespeare.” Need support?

The ad campaign generated a wave of backlash due to undertones of eugenics and misogyny. But this isn't Sydney Sweeney's first brush with the threat of cancelation...This episode, Hailey (your host) tackles this monster of a controversy and explores why MAGA has taken Sweeney under their wing. She also talks Sweeney's previous controversies, from her selling her own bathwater, to a MAGA-themed birthday party.HAPPY SEASON 3 GASPERS!!!
Last week, Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce stepped out at numerous events together, where the paps were quick to take their picture. But they weren’t alone. They were joined by Travis’s rumored boyfriend, Ross Travis... Is this all a beard/PR relationship? If so, it's not the only one in Hollywood right now. This week, Hailey talks about how the “Lavender Marriages” of Old Hollywood still continue today. This episode, she covers: Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster, Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra, and of course Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce.Join my Patreon for bonus content: here!Check out my merch: here!
It’s Pride, and what does that mean? It means the bisexuals and lesbians are fighting. Again. Last week, almost as if TRYING to increase the tensions, Fletcher, the famously sapphic singer, “came out” as having a boyfriend by dropping her song, "Boy"–much to the aghast of fans and sapphics alike. Lesbians have called out Fletcher for her “trad-wife” marketing and poorly timed announcement, while bisexuals have called out lesbians for their reaction, saying it’s biphobic. This week Hailey is joined by her close friend, Fletcher superfan, and fellow sapphic, Lexi, to weigh in on all of the controversy.Subscribe to my Patreon: here!Link to my merch: here!
She's free!!! Taylor Swift announced HUGE news last week: that she has finally bought back her masters. Now, for the first time in her entire career… she owns all her work. As exciting and game-changing as this news is, it also means that the long-anticipated Taylor’s Version of Reputation will not happen. In this week's episode, Hailey celebrates (and also digests) this news and investigates what Taylor might do now as a free woman: release Karma? re-do her sparkling summer? perhaps even come out?? Also happy Pride everyone!Subscribe to my Patreon: here!Check out my Pride merch: here!

And the straights seem to be delighted.This week, Hailey digs into the whole controversy and explores why the gays are mad and why the straights couldn’t be happier about this "new Joelle."Pride Merch here!Join my Patreon for discounts here!

Taylor Swift released “Clara Bow” as the final song on her latest album’s anthology, The Tortured Poet’s Department. From a brief google search, you can learn that Clara Bow was a Hollywood megastar, known as the original “it girl” during the champagne-drenched golden era of the 1920s. But, Clara Bow was also a bisexual icon… that part is often erased by the history books. Is this the larger reason as to why Taylor uses Clara as inspiration? Does Taylor see herself as a Clara Bow reincarnated? Hailey digs into the life, career, & queerness of Clara Bow, and highlights the eerily similar connections between the modern it girl's (Taylor Swift) art and life to the original it girl's (Clara Bow).Join my Patreon: HERE!Buy my merch: HERE!

Swifties widely accept the idea that the muses of Midnights and TTPD are Joe Alwyn & Matty Healy respectively. Hailey explores the controversial theory that these assumptions are all wrong. What if the songs about London actually reference Taylor Swift's "friend" Zoë Kravitz, who spent COVID quarantined in London with Taylor? And what if all the lyrics about a tattooed cinephile drug user, are actually about Zoë, who matches that description as well?This week, Hailey analyzes the lyrics and the entire timeline of Taylor & Zoë's friendship to get to the truth.20% off Merch!Join my Patreon for bonus episodes!

The girlies TOOK OVER pop music the last couple of years and arguably, the Summer of 2024 was for the girls. With the Barbie movie still lingering, the Eras Tour in full swing, and Brat Summer fully taking over, feminism seemed like it was at an all time high.
