Smart cookie undersells it dramatically. Taylor Swift is a marketing and possibly a financial genius who has locked herself into the collective consciousness of the country. I used to try to not listen to her music at all, but my daughter and wife absolutely love her, so it's all I get to listen to around them. She's had virtually 0 truly bad press surrounding her. You don't have to like her music, but you have to respect her ability to sell her image and music.
Actually this is a point of conflict for some of her fans. Some of my friends are swifties and they hate consumerism and high concert prices and collectibles and marketing that incentivize FOMO to spend more money. They jokingly call her their capitalist queen.
At least they're self-aware about it.
Are you in my friend circle, because same with my swiftie friends
