Why do people follow singers and similar people? A good voice has zero correspondence with having something interesting to say.
I’ve tried unsuccessfully to turn that over in my head Is it that they think taylor swift will talk to them or recognize them in person? that’s too absurd. is it that they want other people in the group of followers to befriend them because they all are proving their loyalty to taylor swift? maybe? is it that they need to show loyalty to some group and it just happened to be taylor swift and not Scientology or something? maybe?
