Taylor swift Drops The Man “Live”

Taylor Swift has released a live performance video of her hit single “The Man”.

The feminist power anthem, dripping in sarcasm and emphasising the double standards and hypocrisy women have to deal with, is preceded with a symbolic animated video released last week.

The live performance, staged in Paris, sees Taylor clad in black, made up the classic Taylor way, holding onto her guitar, singing her heart out – the spotlight shining on her. The performance is power and elegance personified, and the point of the song – clear.

In other news, a print publication just revealed that Taylor Swift’s father got into a scuffle with an intruder at his $4million dollar penthouse in Florida. Reports do not state whether the intruder meant to target the home, or found himself there by chance. Scott Swift made it out of the scuffle safe and unharmed, reports state.

This isn’t the Swift family’s first brush with stalkers/ intruders. Taylor has spoken openly about the physical harm and danger she has had to deal with on a regular basis as a result of her celebrity status. Swift even keeps a first aid kit at immediate disposal, complete with pepper spray, bandages and other supplies.

She has always stood up against the violation of one’s boundaries and physical spaces, fighting a sexual assault case in a public trial as well as taking a politcial stance against conservative, Republican politicians in her hometown.

As luck would have it, The Man makes you think and makes you groove. Power to you, ladies!
