Taylor Swift’s Former Classmate Explains Why ‘Most People Hated Her’ During High School
Với sự thành công của chuyến lưu diễn Eras Tour gần đây và bộ phim mới ra mắt, không thể phủ nhận rằng Taylor Swift có một lượng người hâm mộ cuồng nhiệt. Ngôi sao nhạc pop lớn này đã có 72.000 khán giả hát cùng cô tại mỗi buổi hòa nhạc, thu về 13 triệu USD tiền bán vé cho mỗi buổi biểu diễn. Ngoài ra, bộ phim “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” đã thu về 93 triệu USD trong nước trong tuần mở màn phòng vé và 31 triệu USD ở nước ngoài.
Tuy nhiên, một người bạn học cũ của nữ ca sĩ đã tiết lộ rằng hầu hết học sinh học cùng trường trung học với cô đều không phải là fan của Swift trước khi cô có được bước đột phá lớn.
Taylor Swift’s former classmate says ‘most people hated her’ at their school.
In a TikTok video, Jessica McLane, who grew up in the same town as Swift and attended high school with her, claims that most of her classmates believed Swift’s songs were petty. McLane reveals that although she was classmates with Swift, she doesn’t know much about the singer or her music, especially growing up.
“I was a church kid, I didn’t really listen to Taylor Swift, kinda just got into Taylor Swift, so give me some grace,” she says.

In 2006, McLane was a freshman in high school and Swift was a junior. Her hit song “Teardrops on my Guitar” was released that summer. “Obviously [Swift] got really big, and that’s the year that she left school and was homeschooled,” McLane says.
However, after the song’s release and Swift’s departure from public school, her classmates did not take a liking to her. “Something you need to know about Henderson High School, when she first started becoming super successful, most people hated her,” McLane shares. “Keep in mind, these are her peers, these aren’t just some random people on the Internet.”
“She’s literally, 16 or 17 leaving school to pursue a career that people are telling her that she could never have.”
Classmates allegedly didn’t like how Taylor Swift sang about her exes.
A significant reason Swift’s classmates didn’t like her was that her lyrics were petty and portrayed those she dated that attended high school with her in a negative light. “The guys she was writing songs about, they were still in school. And now they have a hit song about them talking about what a s—ty boyfriend they are,” McLane says.
“There are a lot of rumors going around about how she got her start in the first place … the fact remains is that there were not a lot of people in high school who had nice things to say about her.”
McLane reveals that in 2009 when she was a senior in high school, her class was invited by Swift to the 2009 CMA Awards, where she was performing her song “Fifteen.”
“We were all really excited, who gets invited by Taylor Swift to the CMAs? That’s really cool,” McLane says. However, she believed it was “very random” of Swift to invite her class, given most of her classmates disliked her.
She points out that 2009 is the year that Swift “killed the game” and was the recipient of numerous music awards, including Entertainer of the Year, Female Vocalist of the Year, Album of the Year, and Music Video of the Year. “Her performance was incredible,” McLane says.
It was only this year when Swift announced that she was releasing her album “Midnights” on Kim Kardashian’s birthday — with whom she has feuded before — that McLane said she realized that there was a petty side to the singer and that everything she did was intentional. “She invited us to the CMAs to say [explative] you,” McLane shares. “And we deserved it.”
“So to Taylor, touche, that was a good one.”
Người hâm mộ bảo vệ Taylor Swift trong phần bình luận.
“Như cô ấy nên làm! Hãy cứ nhỏ mọn đi cô gái,” một người dùng viết. “Không có sự trả thù nào tốt hơn thành công,” ai đó đã chỉ ra.
“Mọi người luôn ghét những người làm những việc lớn lao vì họ tức giận chứ không phải họ. Họ muốn làm những điều lớn lao? Vậy thì làm đi!!” một fan khác chia sẻ.
McLane đã đăng một video tiếp theo giải thích rằng sự ghen tị cũng là nguyên nhân chính khiến nhiều người không thích cô ấy.

McLane nói: “Những thanh niên 16 và 17 tuổi đang cố gắng theo đuổi sự nghiệp âm nhạc ở Hendersonville đã chơi ở trung tâm thành phố hoặc chơi ở quán cà phê địa phương nhưng không giành được giải thưởng. “Và không phải những người này không tài năng mà chỉ là hầu hết mọi người không thành công.”
McLane nói thêm rằng mọi người cũng thích lan truyền tin đồn rằng Swift “xấu tính” và “khó chịu” do họ ghen tị.
