Attention, all of those throwing a Taylor Swift is Over and It’s Totally Awesome Party:
You may need to kick out your guests right about now.
Because Taylor Swift sent a subtle, yet very clear, message on Thursday night:
She is so NOT over.
On Thursday evening, the controversial singer spent a few hours with her famous squad in New York City, attending a concert by Eliot Sumner, Sting’s daughter.
The event took place in the Bowery Ballroom and those in attendance with Swift included Karlie Kloss, Cara Delevingne, Zoë Kravitz, Dakota Fanning.
You know, the usual suspect.
The normal members of Taylor’s Squad.
But … wait. She doesn’t done.
Cameras also caught Swift and company hanging out with the greatest female athlete in the history of the world.
Heck, one of the greatest athletes in the history of the world period. Full stop.
Oh, yes, people, that’s Serena Williams out and about with Taylor Swift.
Game. Set. Match, right?
Swift has remained relatively quiet for several months now.
She was exposed over the summer as somewhat of a liar by Kim Kardashian, after the reality star dropped a Snapchat video that depicted a phone conversation between Kanye West and Swift.
The conversation proved that West had run certain lyrics from his song “Famous” by Swift before releasing it to the public, despite Taylor’s previous claim of the opposite.
Then, earlier this month, Demi Lovato called out Swift for having only skinny friends.
“I don’t see anybody in any sort of squad that has a normal body,” Lovato told Glamour, adding:
“It’s kind of this false image of what people should look like. And what they should be like, and it’s not real.”
It was an odd criticism, and it was shot down in epic fashion by Swift on Thursday when she included Serena with her group of friends.
Williams is beloved for a number of reasons, but one of those reasons is how she’s served as a role model for muscular, curvy women.
Martha Hunt, meanwhile, shared a picture of the Squad backstage at the aforementioned concert, including with it the caption “Sober.”
And while Serena isn’t among the famous people posing above, Internet users still fell in love with this image.
Based on the following comments, it seems as if Swift is as popular as ever:
The only question that now remains is this:
Will Swift release a new album before 2016 is over?
She’s come out with a studio record in the fall of every other year since 2008. She’s due for one now.
And she should have plenty material, following breakups this year with both Calvin Harris and Tom Hiddleston.
It does seem like Swift is inching her way back into the mainstream conversation little by little, perhaps preparing us for yet another Taylor Swift Takeover.
We’re ready, aren’t you?
The world is just a more fun place when Taylor Swift is prominent in the news.
And, let’s face it, her music is really catchy!
We want to hear more of it.
