Totally agree about her making other people feel special. Aside from the paparazzi's pictures, she always approach her fans to the point you'd be confused which side is the fan if only you don't know Taylor Swift.
the irony of it being John Mayer that accurately psychoanalyzed her, managing to be complimentary and condescending all at once....very revealing 😂 (especially when you realize that quote was from around the time they were allegedly dating, as opposed to some things he said about her a couple years *after* that)
I really get the charm part. I feel like my generation obsesses over " keeping it real" and dont understand the timeless importance of being polite and welcoming . Then when they dont have as much success as someone who knows how to behave they are surprised.
@@jcee3644 So true. Then when confronted over their bad manners its all " oh I' m just telling it like it is " or so and so doesn't because she is fake
Taylor dances at award shows even when everyone is sitting down..she has done from the start still does it. i think it's something so rare and so assuring for the person performing onstage
3:28. Time stamp for a valuable lesson. “At that momemnt it dawned upon me that I have to love being myself or I was just gonna end up being dark and angry”
Another reason her "rebellion" detailed at 15:13 has been successful beyond the tone of it (polite, cordial-which, I might add, is something often *not* asked of white stars that is asked of black ones; race plays a role in your Q score, too) is the substantive altruism of it. She was only able to re-record the old stuff *and* own the masters of those re-recordings for two reasons: 1.) She owns the publishing rights to the compositions, as the primary songwriter on literally every single one of them. 2.) She was able to negotiate master ownership of all the music to be reocrded and released under her new record label after leaving Big Machine-Republic Records. She earned that negotiating power through her first decade of success, but she then leveraged it by persuading Republic to agree to distribute their shares in Spotify amongst ALL their artists in non-recoupable fashion-meaning, those payments wouldn't be counted against the advances those artists were paid at their initial signings (literally every dollar a recording artist earns after signing is counted against that advance, as well as against every dollar the label spends on them after that in recording costs, marketing costs, etc.-it's essentially a million tiny pyramid schemes). It's similar to when she fought Apple and Spotify over royalty payments to artists-it wasn't just about paying *her* what she deserves. It was about setting a precedent so that the next generation (and the ones starting out now, like Olivia Rodrigo) can be paid what they deserve and can actually make a living.
I agree she's the most charming celebrity today. The Beatles had a lot of charm back in the day. Especially that dry wit British sense of humor, which explains part of their popularity as well as their music 🎵. You should do one on them, even though they're an old band.
I remember when I was first starting to “cave” and like Taylor swift’s music. I remember I came across a video of her wrapping Christmas presents and hand delivering them to fans. I was bawling and in awe that she did this. I was like omg how amazing. I agree with another commenter - started liking her music but fell in love with who she is and I do think that’s because she loves who she is! Great analysis.
Would you like or just as much as she didn’t do it for her fan base? Maybe she did it for people that didn’t even like her or people that couldn’t afford to go to a concert? Dolly pardons done a lot for people that are poor. I don’t know much about Taylor Swift as far as her donations goes I’m sure she does a lot I’m just saying other artist do that too
@@Portia620 I didn’t know Dolly Parton did that! I honestly think any person doing any act of kindness these days should be celebrated - famous or not! I shared this particular memory I had of TS because it was relevant to the video. I didn’t mean to say no one else does it but it definitely struck me as a beautiful thing to do.
I learned when working with clients all day it's best to break the ice with a compliment. Makes people instantly like you. Self deprivation at same time can work too.
Come on she is quick witted and generous too!! People don't realize how generous she is cause most of the time she helps people(donates money for example) in a lowkey way without announcing to medua
Taylor is indeed down to earth, humble, no ego...very very unusual for highly successful people. But must be so hard to be around so many egos. They must be so jealous of her sincere happiness
I don't see Taylor as happy because she does have a lot of insecurities and struggles with maintaining relationship with friends and BF's. Plus someone who talks about revenge aren't usually content.
@@CrimsonEclipse she mentions the revenge when necessary, while many things attack her. This is normal. But she is so kind to everyone who is a fan or does not do harm to her. Moreover, with her healing journey, she is step by step able to manage her relationships better. Now just see the way she has many good friends around and enjoys every little thing with them naturally (pls update her new life, all of which you mentioned seems to be in the past). About her BF, it is just not a suitable time for them, and at least when she breaks up, with no posts, separation, or heavy sadness, they accept and move on happily, or at least at ease. Just see a big growth in her soul and how she lives her life.
OMG ANT!!!!!!!!!!!! I swear, a few years ago I saw her charm & learn a lot from her, special to be authentic with yourself & never deny your feeling. Now you released this video, so excited to watch it!!
Finally! Everyone talks about her music, and her talent blabla but I personally became a fan of her based first on her personality and second on her music; and I still really love her music mostly for her personality that comes through in the lyrics.
I consider myself a Swiftie, and have been a fan of very talented, and adorably gorgeous Taylor A. Swift since her first video "Tim McGraw". I'd be honored to have the opportunity to sing a duet with her. Thank you so very much.
I got into Country with Highway Don't Care because it was what was playing. I took a greyhound across the country and I was 18 with a radio on my phone at the time. Country was the one thing playing consistently. I dove deep into country after I got to my destination and loved it ever since. 🙂
Just want to point out, Taylor does own her songs. She didn't own her masters or the recordings of the songs. Basically, she didn't own the albums. She was going to buy them back until a secret backhanded deal got them sold to someone who wasn't good for her. She was able to re-record her albums because she still owned the copyright to her actual songs. It was a fantastic move that was not just good for her but for all songwriters.
You left out one absolutely massive part of what makes her so charming. Without it, she wouldn’t even have half the amount of recognition she has. Genetics.
She is a High Creative…and they don’t put up with shit, they also know they can change companies or practices. Their voice gets heard and supported. She is pure inspiration! I love this channel, and all you are teaching. I’m a teacher of Conscious Relationsips for 35 years, so I feel your heart! Thank you!
I love Taylor. First I though it was guilty plesure to listen to her song, because they are so teenage, But ten I grow up and still listen to her music and I thought there is nothing to be ashame of. Plus I am a saggitarius too😁
You describes her perfectly. I’m just casual listener of her but recently getting to know more of her personally through some interviews, vids, and her interaction with her fans. and i understand why many people loves her. She really is very charming! It’s extremely rare for a star as big as her still be very down to earth & relatable. I can feel her genuinity ❤
When it comes to comparing yourself to others, a piece of advice I heard a while ago was "The only person you should be comparing yourself to is the person you used to be."
This was a wonderful breakdown and I just realised that I'm so very far from being a charming person 😂 Anyways, you need to do one of these for Selena Gomez!
I really hadn't paid much attention to Taylor until I heard her political views a few years ago and then how she started taking on the music industry to make it more equitable for the musicians. Now I watch everything she does. You're right. She's the real deal.
In the uk.. when someone says ‘oh so-and so loves themself 🙄’ it’s meant like they think they are the shiz. If someone is confident in them-self we just say that. They’re confident in them-self. They’re comfortable with who they are.
I think for me um... (yea I did it lol) I love her music, but it is her personality and how she interacts with her fans that really makes me a devoted Swiftie. She understands she would not have the success she does without the fans & tried very hard to make sure we know she appreciates us. From still doing after show meet and greets on tour, to always stopping for pictures at events, down to interacting with fans on social media. She maintains a relationship with the fans that a lot of artist stop working on when they become super successful. What makes her so charming to me is that even though she is this HUGE superstar, she works to make sure people still see her as a person.
Wow I just stumbled across this video and I clicked coz I'm a huge swiftie but your breakdown was everything and I learned so much for such a short video! Excited to read your book sometime
Love her lighting rod quote... A lighting rod is designed to take all the lighting away from big tall buildings and bury it deep into the ground... OUTSTANDING ❤❤❤❤❤
9:10 and she's very much aware of that (lest in a charming, not calculating/manipulative way): "when i walk in the room I can still make the whole place shimmer"
Thank you for this segment. I love Taylor. Someone else that is so likable is Celine. They are just unique and amazing. Thank you again. I love your channel.
Can you please do a video on Austin Butler? Recently he said he wasn’t even able to order food at a restaurant on his own to now being slightly more outgoing and taking on the role of Elvis Presley. As a shy person myself I’m really curious to see what you would talk about when analyzing him. Thank you.
I'm such a big fan of Michael Jackson and I can tell that Taylor reminds me so much of him. Like the way she treats fan and care so much and being able to protect them is so charming, sweet and kind. Probably may some not be agreed with me. But the way I love Michael and following him for so many years. Taylor has this special thing. And I like her because of that, and of course her music. Both genius songwriters ❤️
I think that part of what allows her to make people feel special, aside from being very good with her words, is that it comes from a genuine place of caring about people. Taylor Swift loves people. She cares deeply for her friends and also makes friends easily. From what I've heard about her from others in the industry, it is very difficult NOT to get along with Taylor.
great video!! kept coming up on recommended till I surrendered and clicked and it was worth it! very neat and smoothly paced, I like the editing. easy on the eyes. Also everything you said was so on point.
How did this video turn into a therapy session for me - - after listening to her personalities, I’m rethinking my life and why I keep losing people. Now I know. I aspire to be like her. Confident and Happy person 🤍
Do Messi! With the World Cup going on and the whole world wanting him to win it even though they're not from ARG it's what I call The Messi Effect and I would love it if you explained it.
“Charming” is one of those characteristics which seems to be a double edged sword. There’s no doubt that Taylor exudes charm, and all in the best way. But “charming” is also the one word that people use to describe narcissistic sociopaths. When victims of this type of person realize they’ve been used, they always describe their victimizer as, “ he/she was so charming”. It would have been great if you had pointed out the difference between the “good” side of charming opposed to the “evil” side of charming.
Hi Anthony Great video you really described well how and what makes Taylor Swift so Charming. I love watching your videos they are very informative and fun to watch. I'm an aspiring singer and songwriter myself and videos like this are great help to me in the more communicative part of this work but also in general when I talk to friends and new people I meet. For the new video you could talk about Princess Diana. She was really an interesting person and I want to know how she managed to charm the public like that. That's it . I'm also sorry if there's any weird mistakes I've made English is not my first language so this was a whole lot of work. Bye have a great day :)
Hi Anthony! My name's Rosie and I'm from Argentina 🤗 I just wanted to say that I loved everything about this video ! Taylor is definitely a genius songwriter, singer and storyteller but not a lot of people take the time to shine a light on her personality and talk about what makes her so special, so thank you for making a video about that! I wanted to ask you if you'd like me to add Spanish subtitles to your video, so I can then share it with my friends!
ive noticed this so much by watching tons of movies how boys n audiences all get so hooked to a person that has this electricity as u said for life like they r so glad to be alive n r full of such contageous energy that makes ppl wanna be around them i think if a person has that alone they can attract anyone bcuz it makes other ppl be glad to be alive too like it makes themm feel as if their life has a purpose just by being w them although this is something really hard to achieve
I can believe that Taylor Swift is a really sweet person butttt... it's not natural, genuine charm. It is something she wants to give off, she wants to be *seen* as charming and cool. Even though her true personality and interests are pretty eclectic as she said on the interview about Nashville and not having many friends at school. I think she is trying to prove to those childhood and maybe current bullies that she is indeed cool and socially popular/approved/admired. She doesn't need that approval though and she can just be the sweet music and cat and whatever else obsessed person. Newsflash we can't be eclectic AND charming. Honestly I feel like anyone that is eclectic AND charming is psycho (Im not saying this about TS because as I said, I don't think she's naturally charming but wants to seem it). We make out charm to be such a good thing but in many cases its not, it can be manipulative (wanting all people to like you counts as manipulative, sorry) and narcissistic especially when it has always come so naturally. Even though manipulation is seen as a pretty evil quality, it's something we have to see as a quality that many people who are generally good and even kind people can exercise or try to exercise especially if they have been made to feel excluded or rejected. We honestly shouldn't put charm on such a high pedestal. Connect with people and be yourself and if the vibes aren't there you don't have to force it by being "charming" or trying to get them to like you! Don't take it too personally if people don't, people have their own views and moods, no bother in trying to win them over. Life's too short and let them be. You're good enough. You are good enough.
Qualities we should admire and aspire to instead: kindness, good listening, not taking one's self too seriously, sharing, being open-minded, being brave and steadfast in your values/standing up for those less powerful, being selfless, being someone that take's care of yourself well, taking pride in your appearance and small daily habits, being affectionate, appreciating other's work or talents, being optimistic, being consistent, being a team-player, knowing when to put your ego down, being open-minded and humble, defending the truth, living in the moment, and being someone that unites and reminds us of our shared needs and joys as opposed to being divisive or holier than thou
finally, let's also not forget that most people that we probably think of when we think of charming are just really beautiful people, and that is certainly a successful trait in drawing attention and people naturally want to engage and laugh with beautiful people! we are but simple creatures, mates
You're the first person I see who is able to properly articulate this opinion without being like "actually Taylor's a fake b*tch" So I don't exactly agtre with all of your points but good for you for being able to express them
The whole "making herself small" thing isn't actually a conscious thing that we do to make others more comfortable, it is merely the result of a lifetime of being made to feel as if we're taking up too much space and somehow, our mere presence sucks all of the oxygen out of the room and makes life more difficult for others. It's nonsense and we should all Walk Tall and give the "haters" the finger, at this point.
I think for Taylor it's actually intentional she tried to be small. It's a learnt habit based on experience. She grew up with people hating on her because they were jealous of her since she does have more than the average person. She grew up being beautiful, tall and skinny, talented, and rich who had very loving an accommodating parents who to moved to Nashville just so she could focus on her music at aged 13. In her teenage interviews told people she has a 4.00 straight "A" in high school and had a record deal at age 14. People in her High School hated her because she was the over privilege girl who talks about how smart she was and how wonder her parents was to allow her to be a musican. She was showing how perfect her life was and her classmates hated her for it. The feeling of loneliness from her peers caused her to change her behaviors because everyone is intimated by her and by her privilege and success. If she doesn't act humble she will be destroyed. Yes, she is passionate about her music career but as someone so young at the time it's totally unrelatable to her classmates and to the average person. Yes, it's easier for her to sing at a concert and go to the recording studio than when she goes to high-school. It's because she was made to feel special when she is center stages vs being around average students who only see her as unrelatable and she not being their equals. If she doesn't learn to be humble she won't make friends or keep friend. When she was younger even Miley Cyrus called her stuck up and frigid ice queen and they were friends. Anyone who acts like they are too perfect and above everyone are totally disliked.
Who's the next Classic Charm episode on? Sound off in the comments.

Tom Hiddleston! ❤❤❤
Definitely Tom Hardy. He's different than most celebs
taylor just makes the whole place shimmer
Totally agree about her making other people feel special. Aside from the paparazzi's pictures, she always approach her fans to the point you'd be confused which side is the fan if only you don't know Taylor Swift.
That's called Lovebombing

I couldn't stop laughing at that part.
What did he say??
I think it's showing how much of a creep he is. "how sweet" that she's got imposter syndrome and doesn't know her worth.
Very telling of what? I don't keep up with celebrity news so I'm in the dark about this!
What its all about plz summarize i want to know 😲
I really get the charm part. I feel like my generation obsesses over " keeping it real" and dont understand the timeless importance of being polite and welcoming . Then when they dont have as much success as someone who knows how to behave they are surprised.
Gen Z keeping it real be like, hi be rude to everyone you know and don't be a goody-two shoes
@@jcee3644 So true. Then when confronted over their bad manners its all " oh I' m just telling it like it is " or so and so doesn't because she is fake
@@MsDiMera2 It's just really sad to be honest.
Keepin' it real
You can keep it real, and still be polite and courteous!!! you’re talking about arrogance that’s with keeping it real us to some people.

Amazing
John Mayer psychoanalyzing Taylor and ending it with saying "I'm dead inside" is soooo funny
😂
He should've known 😂😂
i literally replayed it bc i was like did he just say that LOL
@@Eric_The_Eccentric yesssssss the subtle quote
Once you've been exposed to a Narcissist, you are.
Taylor is sooo good with words, everything she says feels like a poem
Exactly! I'm so instantly attracted to people who sound so scholarly and have great way with words

Thanks so much hope to see you again
great video!! kept coming up on recommended till I surrendered and clicked and it was worth it! very neat and smoothly paced, I like the editing. easy on the eyes. Also everything you said was so on point.
so charming people are observing like they study people.
How did this video turn into a therapy session for me - - after listening to her personalities, I’m rethinking my life and why I keep losing people. Now I know. I aspire to be like her. Confident and Happy person 🤍
i love this! the way you talked about her is amazing
Beautiful explanation
Sagittarius Energy

Do Messi! With the World Cup going on and the whole world wanting him to win it even though they're not from ARG it's what I call The Messi Effect and I would love it if you explained it.
Please do Anya Taylor-Joy next!!
Just looking at your list of nine things I'm like, I worked out the formula all by myself!
“Charming” is one of those characteristics which seems to be a double edged sword. There’s no doubt that Taylor exudes charm, and all in the best way. But “charming” is also the one word that people use to describe narcissistic sociopaths. When victims of this type of person realize they’ve been used, they always describe their victimizer as, “ he/she was so charming”. It would have been great if you had pointed out the difference between the “good” side of charming opposed to the “evil” side of charming.
Charm is a tool that psychopaths exploit.
Hi Anthony
Great video you really described well how and what makes Taylor Swift so Charming. I love watching your videos they are very informative and fun to watch. I'm an aspiring singer and songwriter myself and videos like this are great help to me in the more communicative part of this work but also in general when I talk to friends and new people I meet. For the new video you could talk about Princess Diana. She was really an interesting person and I want to know how she managed to charm the public like that.
That's it .
I'm also sorry if there's any weird mistakes I've made English is not my first language so this was a whole lot of work.
Bye have a great day :)
That's why I love her
I would love to see a video like this but about Louis Tomlinson, for me, Louis is one of the most charming and joyful people.
Please consider doing a video on Lilly Singh ! She is one of the most charming personalities I've seen in the media !
13:00 was great ❤
Please do more videos on Taylor!
Hi Anthony! My name's Rosie and I'm from Argentina 🤗 I just wanted to say that I loved everything about this video ! Taylor is definitely a genius songwriter, singer and storyteller but not a lot of people take the time to shine a light on her personality and talk about what makes her so special, so thank you for making a video about that! I wanted to ask you if you'd like me to add Spanish subtitles to your video, so I can then share it with my friends!
I loved this video! Please continue the series!
Thanks Jessica!
Hey eyes are so unique and fierce.
It surely helps being attractive 🙂
AHH come on 🤣
We all know Taylor Swift is the best at all.
Everything shimmers when she just wakes up
ive noticed this so much by watching tons of movies how boys n audiences all get so hooked to a person that has this electricity as u said for life like they r so glad to be alive n r full of such contageous energy that makes ppl wanna be around them i think if a person has that alone they can attract anyone bcuz it makes other ppl be glad to be alive too like it makes themm feel as if their life has a purpose just by being w them although this is something really hard to achieve
I found your video by chance today. I love the topic of charm and I love Taylor Swift. Thoroughly enjoyed this! ❤
Wow thank you so much!
I can believe that Taylor Swift is a really sweet person butttt... it's not natural, genuine charm. It is something she wants to give off, she wants to be *seen* as charming and cool. Even though her true personality and interests are pretty eclectic as she said on the interview about Nashville and not having many friends at school. I think she is trying to prove to those childhood and maybe current bullies that she is indeed cool and socially popular/approved/admired. She doesn't need that approval though and she can just be the sweet music and cat and whatever else obsessed person. Newsflash we can't be eclectic AND charming. Honestly I feel like anyone that is eclectic AND charming is psycho (Im not saying this about TS because as I said, I don't think she's naturally charming but wants to seem it). We make out charm to be such a good thing but in many cases its not, it can be manipulative (wanting all people to like you counts as manipulative, sorry) and narcissistic especially when it has always come so naturally. Even though manipulation is seen as a pretty evil quality, it's something we have to see as a quality that many people who are generally good and even kind people can exercise or try to exercise especially if they have been made to feel excluded or rejected. We honestly shouldn't put charm on such a high pedestal. Connect with people and be yourself and if the vibes aren't there you don't have to force it by being "charming" or trying to get them to like you! Don't take it too personally if people don't, people have their own views and moods, no bother in trying to win them over. Life's too short and let them be. You're good enough. You are good enough.
Qualities we should admire and aspire to instead: kindness, good listening, not taking one's self too seriously, sharing, being open-minded, being brave and steadfast in your values/standing up for those less powerful, being selfless, being someone that take's care of yourself well, taking pride in your appearance and small daily habits, being affectionate, appreciating other's work or talents, being optimistic, being consistent, being a team-player, knowing when to put your ego down, being open-minded and humble, defending the truth, living in the moment, and being someone that unites and reminds us of our shared needs and joys as opposed to being divisive or holier than thou
finally, let's also not forget that most people that we probably think of when we think of charming are just really beautiful people, and that is certainly a successful trait in drawing attention and people naturally want to engage and laugh with beautiful people! we are but simple creatures, mates
You're the first person I see who is able to properly articulate this opinion without being like "actually Taylor's a fake b*tch"
So I don't exactly agtre with all of your points but good for you for being able to express them
I’d be interested in seeing what you think of Hayley Williams.
Great points you made, I just love how Taylor behaves other people and wish to do the same
The only ones intimidating by her are the ones with bad thoughts and bad intentions in the industry that might feel like she can see through them
I'm so interesting with this studying
So happy to be here! :) Love your videos!
Love the..Hi Mom on his shirt!
The whole "making herself small" thing isn't actually a conscious thing that we do to make others more comfortable, it is merely the result of a lifetime of being made to feel as if we're taking up too much space and somehow, our mere presence sucks all of the oxygen out of the room and makes life more difficult for others.
It's nonsense and we should all Walk Tall and give the "haters" the finger, at this point.
I think for Taylor it's actually intentional she tried to be small. It's a learnt habit based on experience.
She grew up with people hating on her because they were jealous of her since she does have more than the average person. She grew up being beautiful, tall and skinny, talented, and rich who had very loving an accommodating parents who to moved to Nashville just so she could focus on her music at aged 13. In her teenage interviews told people she has a 4.00 straight "A" in high school and had a record deal at age 14. People in her High School hated her because she was the over privilege girl who talks about how smart she was and how wonder her parents was to allow her to be a musican. She was showing how perfect her life was and her classmates hated her for it.
The feeling of loneliness from her peers caused her to change her behaviors because everyone is intimated by her and by her privilege and success. If she doesn't act humble she will be destroyed. Yes, she is passionate about her music career but as someone so young at the time it's totally unrelatable to her classmates and to the average person.
Yes, it's easier for her to sing at a concert and go to the recording studio than when she goes to high-school. It's because she was made to feel special when she is center stages vs being around average students who only see her as unrelatable and she not being their equals.
If she doesn't learn to be humble she won't make friends or keep friend.
When she was younger even Miley Cyrus called her stuck up and frigid ice queen and they were friends. Anyone who acts like they are too perfect and above everyone are totally disliked.
Someone is a total Swifty
I feel like im the same way and taylor is the nicest person love her
Thank u so much for a clear explenation n examples, im definitly taking note
There have been artists who reclaimed their music. Have a look at Jojos career. She was basically robbed of her voice for a few years.
Great point!!
Well said about true confidence. Thank you for your videos. Loving Taylor Swift. 🥂
