Shownotes
In this episode Karissa and I take a nostalgic trip back to the late 2000s and early 2010s. Reminiscing about the music and culture that defined our younger years. We kicked things off, with a lively discussion about the iconic party vibes of LMFAO. Also, other artist's like Pitbull and Miley Cyrus. Who shaped the soundtrack of our high school days. We got the vibes, memories, and connecting these tunes to our coming-of-age experiences.
We also delved into how these musical icons have evolved over the years. Reflecting on how the anthems of our youth. Which influenced our tastes, and perceptions of music today. Also, we explored the broader impact of these artists. On our personal lives, and cultural trends we gravitated towards. Making this the perfect blend of personal reflection. Bringing pop culture critique from the 2010s. Tune in and insert the CD, hear the humor, and jam of LMFAO. Cause it's all about the music that moved us to say 'it's a party in the U.S.A".

00:00.04
yes
Ain't no stopping. Yes. Like, but people like songs where you can kind of sing along. Like you can sing the chorus or whatever.
00:06.50
lostinthegroove
Okay.
00:08.80
yes
Like those songs are really catchy because like people can sing along. So that song in particular, which I would say most people don't know, but some people in your generation know what LMFAO is because it was popular when you guys were like kids.
00:24.05
lostinthegroove
Yeah, when I was in high school, are you kidding me? Like Pitbull, M&M, LMFAO, Chris Brown.
00:26.23
yes
Yeah. When you're like young. Yeah.
00:31.07
lostinthegroove
um
00:32.07
yes
So somehow LMFAO is like, hi I realized that like people of your generation like do know what it was because it was popular when they were in like junior high or like even like fifth, sixth grade or something like that.
00:39.58
lostinthegroove
Yeah. Yeah.
00:45.58
yes
So I'm like, oh, okay, cool.
00:45.63
lostinthegroove
I, I, I literally, I've got been called, like, so like, I'm in a school full of 18 year olds.
00:48.13
yes
So that translated.
00:54.13
lostinthegroove
Like, I'm not gonna raise 18, like, you know, 18, 19, but I'm 25. And some of us are like 25, 26, 28. and we feel old, okay?
01:03.16
yes
yeah
01:04.00
lostinthegroove
Cause there's shit that we're used to, like stuff that we're like, we've been around and like been a part of and stuff.
01:09.04
yes
Yeah.
01:11.30
lostinthegroove
And they have no idea. They're like, Oh my God, like that's so old school. And I'm like, Oh my God, don't make me feel old right now.
01:19.36
yes
I was saying the thing that I really appreciate about the younger generation
01:19.53
lostinthegroove
ah
01:25.31
yes
is that they don't do as much sugarcoating. They have a lot more like realism, like and there isn't a lot of like they need shit sugarcoated as much. like I feel like back when I was 16, 18, we didn't just accept that like the whole world was like bullshit like we we kind of i mean that's a terrible thing to say but if you get what i mean like the younger generation seems to be a little bit more down to earth like they seem to be more like yeah it's not everybody but the ones that i've been around like they seem to have a little bit more like reality happening but yeah not always but i guess i would just say like
01:54.19
lostinthegroove
Okay,
02:16.76
yes
they can see the bullshit a little bit better than I remember people being able to see bullshit or not when I was young.
02:24.96
lostinthegroove
it's really
02:25.38
yes
It wasn't as common to be able to see the bullshit.
02:27.19
lostinthegroove
It's really weird. There's like almost where you have two sides because technically people will call me Gen Z. But realistically, I'm what you call like early Gen Z.
02:39.61
yes
Hello?
02:41.52
lostinthegroove
to like:03:06.96
yes
I'm an elder millennial.
03:10.04
lostinthegroove
You're late millennial, honey. You're like 88.
03:13.07
yes
Yeah, an elder millennial.
03:15.69
lostinthegroove
Oh, yeah.
03:16.99
yes
Elder millennial.
03:17.11
lostinthegroove
Late.
03:19.74
yes
That's it.
03:19.97
lostinthegroove
You're not a baby millennial.
03:23.42
yes
Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me. I don't know.
03:25.12
lostinthegroove
Yeah, you have you have to but you don't have to been born like 79 or 80. To be like early millennial, but those that's just fucking cocaine, Porsche, you know, model, wife, life.
03:39.83
lostinthegroove
Nah. Nah.
03:44.71
lostinthegroove
But then again, Maybe. Yes.
03:52.28
lostinthegroove
I want to fail. See what I did there?
03:55.67
yes
Yes.
03:57.27
lostinthegroove
It works.
03:57.48
yes
hat I had so much fun in like:04:03.30
lostinthegroove
Hmm.
04:10.38
yes
Yeah, like:04:21.95
yes
There were a lot of bands that were really fun, but they were definitely really entertaining.
04:25.06
lostinthegroove
For me, for me at the time, like was definitely One Direction. Like we were, no, like, because like, yeah, like One Direction was like really, really big.
04:32.26
yes
Okay, okay.
04:36.24
lostinthegroove
the time, I think it was like:04:50.88
yes
Yeah. How do you get your career off, by the way? Is it just like enough of like this?
04:57.06
lostinthegroove
oh You're talking about Miley or Billy because there's two different generations.
04:59.51
yes
No, you were just saying like her career really got off. She got her career off. I'm like, oh, God, like.
05:04.55
lostinthegroove
Oh Yeah, yeah, she jerked it like she jerked it all the way to fucking Venus Pre but pre her psycho break and then she lost her voice and now she sounds like mixture of
05:09.44
yes
Yeah, party in the USA was fun. It's fun to think of Miley Cyrus like just. Yeah.
05:21.45
yes
Party in the USA.
05:23.76
lostinthegroove
Yeah, now she kind of sounds like Carly Rae, she sounds like Carly Rae Jaspison, but like almost like Willie Nelson combined.
05:25.28
yes
I like it.
05:33.10
yes
Do you remember Macy Grey?
05:36.05
lostinthegroove
Yeah!
05:36.53
yes
Yeah.
05:37.25
lostinthegroove
Yeah, damn, that was good, that Cole voice, you know, like the...
05:41.13
yes
Macy Grey was good. I want to remember like some of the words from like the Macy Grey song because it's
05:47.31
lostinthegroove
They were, they were, I remember they were very poetic.
05:48.53
yes
if you can yeah If you can mimic it, it's really funny. um I'll do it just for laughs.
05:54.42
lostinthegroove
Well, it's really hilarious because we talk about this back and forth, like, particularly, i I'm from New York, but so many tell so many people tell me, like, I have that, like, southern tang to the way I talk, and I don't realize that until I start listening to my damn voice, and I'm just like, Lord, Lord, Lordy Lord.
06:04.85
yes
Oh.
06:15.86
lostinthegroove
You're pulling up the...
06:16.53
yes
Dude, I found it. ah Remember she she sings try?
06:19.12
lostinthegroove
You found it.
06:22.85
yes
So she's like, I try to walk away and I stumble. oh
06:27.66
lostinthegroove
Ashton bow I can't do it. I can't do it You need a background She's got this life it is it's like
06:31.43
yes
It's true. My world crumbles when I am not with you. Yeah, no, it's it's really good. I try to walk away and I stumble.
06:48.03
yes
so It's beautiful. She has a couple Christmas songs that are really, really good too, but like that's what's great is like certain artists can make like a whole...
06:59.88
yes
like career out of just having a unique voice. I mean, she does have a good voice. Like she does hit all of the notes. Like people could say like, oh, her voice is, you know, screwed up.
07:10.51
yes
But to actually be able to hit the notes.
07:11.32
lostinthegroove
Who, Miley?
07:13.99
yes
Well, Miley hits all the notes, but Macy Gray, Macy Gray hits the notes. But Miley, I mean, shit, they might.
07:18.06
lostinthegroove
Oh, yeah.
07:20.65
yes
I don't correct that stuff nowadays, but she is professionally trained and she has sang her whole life. So I wouldn't be surprised if she's actually hitting them notes herself.
07:30.65
lostinthegroove
Well, you know, you take somebody like even like Celine Dion, where for me personally, that lady has been a little over the top, but that's OK. It's Celine Dion.
07:40.10
yes
I heard a lot of good things about her.
07:40.43
lostinthegroove
well But when she got up in Paris and she performed, it was just, you know, that shows resilience. I mean, because she was diagnosed with a physically physically crippling disease, but yet has managed to be able to still sing very similar to her early career.
08:06.37
lostinthegroove
It's wild. I mean, you know, when you hear Celine Dion, you know it's Celine Dion.
08:09.75
yes
Yeah.
08:11.96
lostinthegroove
Come on. like Come on.
08:14.65
yes
Yeah, Celine Dion is better than almost anybody.
08:15.03
lostinthegroove
like
08:18.81
yes
Like when it comes to like vocal range and performance and ability.
08:21.71
lostinthegroove
Powerful. She's a powerful voice.
08:23.85
yes
um You brought up the word resilience, the actual definition of resilience is the ability to bounce back. um So I think that's kind of cool.
08:37.25
lostinthegroove
She did bounce back.
08:39.38
yes
Right.
08:39.88
lostinthegroove
She had to. I mean, she said, she literally said that like, I don't have anything else to live for. Like, this is, this is my life. This is who I am.
08:50.71
lostinthegroove
This is what makes me me.
08:52.54
yes
How did you find this out about Celine Dion? Like, did you watch a thing?
08:54.72
lostinthegroove
I watched the doc, I watched the interview.
08:56.06
yes
Yeah. So is there a documentary about Celine Dion, like on Netflix or something?
08:57.34
lostinthegroove
was I don't believe so. I've watched the ABC interview. um I've seen like behind the scenes and things.
09:10.35
lostinthegroove
She's very professional when she talks.
09:12.33
yes
Yeah.
09:14.23
lostinthegroove
Very similar much to Audrey Hepburn. You know, if you like, I want to give a comparison. Like Celine Dion, kind of like the way she talks, it's kind of similar how Audrey used to respond. But it's it's really wild to like hear her perspective and her like mental approach to all of this. you know I always really find it fascinating because like pete like we literally started this conversation with memorable people that no matter where you are, you're like, okay, I know what that is. like Most people know who that is.
09:50.37
lostinthegroove
You know what I mean?
09:51.53
yes
Yeah.
09:51.59
lostinthegroove
It's like, it's a memorable voice that you just know immediately.
09:56.91
yes
Oh, I forgot that she was Canadian.
09:59.99
lostinthegroove
Who? Celine Dion?
10:01.52
yes
Yeah.
10:02.31
lostinthegroove
Yeah, she's Canadian. She speaks French.
10:04.45
yes
Oh, I don't know.
10:05.66
lostinthegroove
Mm-hmm.
10:06.88
yes
I knew that she speaks a different language, but it didn't like like click with me real quick that it was French.
10:12.11
lostinthegroove
Do you know? Okay, do you know what I realized also for myself? Because when I would like, because I send them for like shits and giggles, I just like, you know, I i go on GarageBand and I make songs and stuff. Nothing real or anything. But I have been experimenting with French, particularly with making French lyrics. And...
10:29.90
lostinthegroove
My vocal range is completely different with French, okay? It's weird. I'm able to hit higher notes, stay longer with certain points and balance back and forth than I can in English. And that's something that's kind of wild to think about. Like if you have a singer like Celine Dion or or um there are others, I just can't think of any.
10:55.69
yes
Yeah, I could see that like, I feel like yeah, I could see that like different, like having the freedom of like,
10:59.57
lostinthegroove
they speak to like it's not just one but two.
11:11.54
yes
having the freedom of a different language. that isn't like your most common language for yourself, like your first language. Trying to sing in a second language, I think could give you a little bit more freedom as far as like the way that you sing it.
11:28.37
lostinthegroove
I think so too.
11:31.72
yes
I would worry about my pronunciation, like without like talking to a professional, I would worry about like if I'm pronouncing everything right.
11:35.41
lostinthegroove
Well, for me, it's very easy to like use a program like chat, GPT, or Google Translate and kind of go back and forth and kind of check. like ah do Because my father was French, like he was French and Moroccan, and I've kind of been around French to a certain degree, where I don't speak it at all, but I kind of have a good idea of how things are pronounced.
12:03.74
yes
well
12:03.75
lostinthegroove
Like I'm kind of at a point where if I can see a phrase in French and somebody tells me ah how it's read, I i remember the next time, usually to read it again, and I know how to pronounce it.
12:14.39
yes
I'll just say that I studied French before I went to France and I memorized all kinds of stuff. you When I got there, everything that I thought I knew was complete trash. Everything was way more complicated than I ever imagined it would be.
12:33.14
lostinthegroove
it always is.
12:34.42
yes
That's how it was for me. Like I was like, Oh, okay. That's not how you ask for water.
12:42.24
lostinthegroove
Well, what I the the thing that I learned with chat GPT, which I didn't know before, was particularly with French, Moroccan, like Moroccan, French, we have different pronunciations.
12:42.74
yes
Like I was like, what the fuck?
12:56.03
lostinthegroove
So like, we say, ju not it's
12:57.32
yes
Yeah.
13:01.25
lostinthegroove
There's like a very hard Z at the very beginning.
13:02.55
yes
yeah
13:04.86
lostinthegroove
There's no P's. It's all B's. So it's B not P.
13:11.18
yes
People from France would say that British English and American English are like two different Englishes.
13:11.43
lostinthegroove
Or
13:18.64
lostinthegroove
They kind of are. i You know, I have a friend that's in the UK and a lot of the times when I talk to her, I use British English with her on the phone.
13:21.02
yes
Yeah.
13:29.22
lostinthegroove
You know, when I talk about like my car being in the sort in the service garage, because if I say garage, she doesn't understand me. You know what I mean?
13:38.22
yes
It's like it's more proper the way that they structure things, I understand. And they teach them British English, so they find American English more challenging.
13:49.72
lostinthegroove
It's harder for the the thing is when you're having a conversation with someone that's British, if they're not used to American words, they have to think. Sometimes they don't. So they kind of like miss what you just said in a sentence. so And then you can't get your point across. That's what I'm trying to say, you know. And that can be really fucking annoying when you're trying to have a like a conversation with somebody.
14:17.56
yes
I just couldn't understand anything. I did a terrible job, uh, trying to speak to people. and I tried, you know, and I think that's what you're supposed to do, but I did okay on a couple of things, but for the most part, no, I just stayed quiet.
14:31.78
lostinthegroove
It's taken me, it's taken me a while, but the wild thing is sometimes because I have it in my brain, I will randomly use the British English without even thinking about it. Like there are times I'll just be like Zed or where's the trolley, you know, or where's the way out.
14:50.31
yes
How did your dad learn English?
14:52.87
lostinthegroove
My dad learned English from television and talking to people.
14:58.71
yes
So they didn't teach it in his school at all.
15:00.83
lostinthegroove
Not really, no. My father spoke French, Arabic, English, Yiddish, and Spanish.
15:12.37
lostinthegroove
Oh, it was hilarious. My dad used to talk to the, used to hire the illegals. People particularly like from Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Puerto Rico. He used to come into New York.
15:28.96
lostinthegroove
need to hire them. So after quite some time, he had to learn some Spanish. And my dad just had conversations with these people. And it was just it was just so fun, you know, because like this man like knew so many languages has been through like multiple cultures.
15:47.52
yes
Yeah.
15:48.50
lostinthegroove
There's all those dynamics, you know, andm like kind of tying back to like, if you think about it, you got to have some type of dynamic Grasp if you want to be memorable.
16:04.27
yes
yeah Yeah, it's much more easier to remember people once you like have some unique like flair about them.
16:05.00
lostinthegroove
Right.
16:08.36
lostinthegroove
and
16:14.02
yes
Like it it's what makes people memorable is like when they open up and like show their unique qualities.
16:22.59
lostinthegroove
People, people forget that Shakira speaks Spanish.
16:27.18
lostinthegroove
Literally.
16:27.56
yes
Yeah, well, I mean, OK, so Celine Dion speaks French Celine Dion is Canadian.
16:31.28
lostinthegroove
Mm hmm.
16:33.50
yes
um I would say, like, do we get to claim Adele? Is America get to claim Adele? Is she from here?
16:41.37
lostinthegroove
She's from the UK.
16:42.63
yes
What the fuck?
16:44.12
lostinthegroove
She's from London.
16:45.42
yes
Who's our most like talented like vocal performer, female wise? I mean, there's Beyonce, but you know.
16:52.36
lostinthegroove
People will say like Sabrina Carpenter, but to be honest, I'm kind of like Taylor Swift.
16:55.94
yes
Yeah, but like a belter like a high, you know? No, she's still not like a ballad performer like a Celine Dion.
17:00.72
lostinthegroove
No,
17:03.95
lostinthegroove
Um, well, it was Aretha Franklin, but she passed away.
17:07.73
yes
Yeah. How are you the Franklin?
17:09.88
lostinthegroove
um
17:10.93
yes
Who's the other one? Diana Ross?
17:12.90
lostinthegroove
Oh, Whitney Houston.
17:16.26
yes
Yes.
17:17.02
lostinthegroove
Whitney Houston.
17:17.21
yes
Yeah. American like powerhouses.
17:20.38
lostinthegroove
You
17:20.74
yes
I guess powerhouse is what I don't know. I don't think Taylor Swift gets to be a powerhouse.
17:24.37
lostinthegroove
of you
17:27.13
yes
You know, like she's not Taylor Swift is Taylor Swift. She's not she's not a ah Celine Dion.
17:34.37
lostinthegroove
She's overrated.
17:36.67
yes
I don't know but there's a difference like between like these women that time and place for I don't know how high people are rating her so I might agree with you too but I do like it like I think I wouldn't really want like a world without oh I would definitely rather go to Amy Winehouse concert you say that like Amy Winehouse sucks or something
17:38.84
lostinthegroove
Oh, um'm I'm gonna say I'm gonna stick on my side. Taylor Swift is 100% overrated but go on.
17:56.24
lostinthegroove
I would rather go to an Amy Winehouse concert that
18:02.93
lostinthegroove
but I guarantee you, like, if Amy... No, Amy Winehouse is awesome. I love Amy Winehouse.
18:09.25
yes
Yeah.
18:10.23
lostinthegroove
That's what I'm saying is, like, if Amy Winehouse was alive right now, Taylor Swift would have no competition. None.
18:18.10
yes
or Yeah, but it's like so you're saying she basically doesn't have competition because Amy Winehouse isn't alive.
18:24.53
lostinthegroove
Come on, like, if Amy...
18:25.70
yes
Amy Winehouse probably didn't suck Beyonce's dick and that's probably why she's dead.
18:30.68
lostinthegroove
No, well, she overdosed.
18:32.58
yes
I know I'm just talking shit.
18:34.26
lostinthegroove
I know, me too. That way she actually did overdose.
18:37.70
yes
I don't, you know, you said they say she did.
18:37.97
lostinthegroove
oh
18:41.18
yes
I don't, I don't believe a damn thing people say when people die. I just have to say that. What's ah the other musician passed away suicide last week?
18:51.21
lostinthegroove
Oh, recently, yeah from wonder yeah, from One Direction.
18:53.93
yes
Yeah. Mm hmm. Yeah.
18:56.18
lostinthegroove
Liam Payne.
18:57.98
yes
Mm-hmm.
18:57.99
lostinthegroove
Little Liam Payne? Yeah, it's Liam Payne.
18:59.44
yes
Yeah, that's sad. But who believes it or not? I think it's fucking weird. All of it's weird. People go dead. I don't like any of it.
19:08.98
lostinthegroove
He was a fantastic, um oh my god, he makes Ed Sheeran look like a pornographic pen paraphernalia.
19:11.89
yes
Singer.
19:18.62
lostinthegroove
But it's kind of sad when, yeah I don't like Ed Sheeran, but when you like look at him when you look when you look at like that and he's just gone, you know you just start to like get curious, you're like, the what ifs, because
19:20.61
yes
Like a dildo?
19:36.79
lostinthegroove
e that was alive right now in:19:49.07
yes
yeah
19:57.13
lostinthegroove
It's just, to Amy Winehouse,
19:57.19
yes
What year? I hear you. I was just wondering if they overlap. What year did Amy Winehouse die?
20:06.06
lostinthegroove
Uh,:20:11.30
yes
Yeah, I think it's sooner.
20:11.48
lostinthegroove
Was it:20:17.92
lostinthegroove
And she
20:18.97
yes
Oh, you're right.:20:28.52
lostinthegroove
was overselling Taylor Swift.
20:32.93
yes
So you're saying that Taylor Swift had Amy Winehouse killed.
20:39.23
lostinthegroove
Possibly.
20:40.41
yes
I'm just fucking around, but I just I wanted to just like edit.
20:41.88
lostinthegroove
Possibly. I mean, it's a great idea.
20:44.87
yes
How about we write, we write some fiction.
20:45.31
lostinthegroove
It's a great idea.
20:49.70
lostinthegroove
And make it, and make it real like our U.S.
20:49.77
yes
Amy Winehouse, Taylor, you're okay, Amy Winehouse's people were trying to kill Taylor Swift is the truth.
20:51.95
lostinthegroove
government FOSU.
20:55.87
lostinthegroove
Whoa.
20:56.83
yes
And then Taylor Swift's people killed Amy Winehouse instead.
20:59.66
lostinthegroove
Check. You know, it's like color war.
21:02.27
yes
That's the twist.
21:03.24
lostinthegroove
It's like color war when you're in you when you're in camp. um You're like, your team's gonna lose. You're like, oh shit, let's kill the other team's leader. And that way, we win. Because without their leader, they lose.
21:21.86
yes
Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. It's really strange. Like I heard a bunch of like contradicting things about Amy Winehouse. Like people would say like all these things about how she's like trouble or whatever, but then they went and they like interviewed like her school and they were like, no, like Amy was fine. and She's like really, really good student. Like we don't even believe that she would ever like get fucked up like that.
21:49.21
lostinthegroove
the thing that I like Okay, the thing that I wanted to point out about Amy that Taylor doesn't have Amy speaks in a way that's within depths. Like when you listen to Amy, it puts you almost in this like trance and you kind of have this like desire for more. I feel like Amy can speak to more people in more an adaptable way. Like I love how Taylor Swift has designed her albums, but she's very much like designed her content around Taylor instead of like
22:28.13
lostinthegroove
venturing into other ideas the way that Amy Winehouse did. And we could have possibly had more if Amy was alive, but she's dead, so.
22:39.42
yes
I think that too much do people take for granted a human being doing everything that Amy was doing and plus Amy was doing it with like a ah genuine, genuine essence that a lot of people don't have.
22:57.63
yes
And so it's much more draining than others.
23:01.77
lostinthegroove
Oh yeah.
23:02.72
yes
But
23:05.43
yes
A lot of Amy's famous songs were covers. Um, she's saying a lot of classic jazz piano.
23:09.60
lostinthegroove
True.
23:17.73
yes
Um, whoever picked out music for her did a damn good job. And if, if she picked out her own music, she's really smart, but they picked out these like specific songs that would definitely work like for her.
23:31.33
lostinthegroove
We're definitely gonna have like that one person.
23:32.30
yes
and then put them all in her key that she needs them in.
23:34.81
lostinthegroove
and We're definitely gonna have that one person that's gonna comment and be like, these people hate Taylor Swift.
23:41.38
yes
I don't mind Taylor Swift.
23:43.15
lostinthegroove
I don't mind her either.
23:43.18
yes
i Do you remember my picture of Taylor Swift in the grocery store?
23:45.10
lostinthegroove
umble
23:49.61
yes
It's my favorite.
23:50.45
lostinthegroove
She probably has never been in a grocery store.
23:51.18
yes
ah taylor Taylor Swift in the grocery store.
23:57.18
yes
Oh, I got a picture of her in a grocery store and she's like staring at the produce and she's like, what the fuck? Like here. Uh, yeah, sorry.
24:10.71
yes
Hold on. Podcasties. Yeah.
24:12.35
lostinthegroove
I am down.
24:12.71
yes
Yeah. Yeah. Ooh.
24:14.19
lostinthegroove
I'm down to my last meat.
24:14.21
yes
I found it.
24:15.33
lostinthegroove
I'm down to my last meat stick.
24:17.54
yes
Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So how do I share it with you?
24:22.15
lostinthegroove
um
24:23.20
yes
Um, copy. I'm an elder millennial here.
24:28.39
lostinthegroove
You can you can you can you can text it to me.
24:28.58
yes
I'm working on it. I'm working on it.
24:32.30
yes
Yes. they says yes yes yeah Okay.
24:33.80
lostinthegroove
No.
24:35.83
yes
So you can see she's like, she's in a Whole Foods and she's staring at like the broccoli, basically. And, or like leaks or something.
24:46.78
yes
And she just looks kind of like. oh As though she's never seen food before it's cooked, you know, like that's what I'm saying is like, I don't think that she's ever seen like food produce before it's chopped up.
25:05.17
lostinthegroove
Did somebody like photograph her in the Whole Foods? Is that it or like?
25:10.66
yes
I believe that this is staged. I believe that Whole Foods paid her to come in and be there and pick stuff out.
25:13.04
lostinthegroove
oh
25:20.16
yes
Or she wanted to be seen at a Whole Foods looking like a regular person, but I believe the whole thing is staged. But this is one of my most favorite pictures ever because like i love I love going to the Whole Foods.
25:33.25
lostinthegroove
There's so many.
25:38.42
yes
And this is something that I do. um but her basket is empty as fuck um there's hardly anything in this little there's nothing in her little empty basket and she just i don't know not another one in the polka dot dress i've never seen that but it looks like she eventually puts the basket
25:47.92
lostinthegroove
There isn't anything in it. There's nothing in there.
25:59.00
lostinthegroove
That dress.
26:02.30
lostinthegroove
Down.
26:02.53
yes
oh No, no, she's gone to Whole Foods more than once but the one in the jean shorts is the one that makes me laugh like where I feel like she's looking at like You know either a cucumber or like something like that and she's like I've never seen this not chopped up These two shirts that she has are like very similar and
26:11.79
lostinthegroove
but But she wears...
26:17.72
lostinthegroove
But she wears the same clothes practically in every single picture except like her pants change. It's like her top.
26:29.02
lostinthegroove
Very similar, like they're almost like from the same company.
26:32.56
yes
Oh, they're definitely from the same company. I feel like I've seen them before actually like I kind of know who makes them and to be honest, I think I might actually have. one that that is like that or someone gave it to me and I didn't like the way that it felt or something like that or like I kind of remember like coming encounters with like whatever designer this is um and I could probably find it because like there's just so many pictures of this online that I'm sure somebody spoke about
27:04.52
lostinthegroove
It's just.
27:04.65
yes
this shirt oh look there's another one where okay so there's one where she has like a little bit of black in the shirt on the top there's one where there's red on the top and then there's one where the whole top is striped so she's got like three of these shirts she's probably got more i believe like at that i don't know you feel like at that point you just wear everything like once but i personally would get like
27:11.00
lostinthegroove
Uh huh. Right. Yeah, she does. It's
27:33.05
yes
If I were like really rich, I'd probably get like weird. like I'd probably get like really weird.
27:38.82
lostinthegroove
This is not.
27:38.85
yes
like If people like let me do whatever I wanted, I'd probably like wear like the same like five things like all the time.
27:45.76
lostinthegroove
This is not actually the same. um Like there's been multiple sightings like it seems like she does. Maybe this was.
27:53.26
yes
go to Whole Foods more than once? Yeah.
27:55.06
lostinthegroove
Yeah, like I don't know me.
27:56.13
yes
I don't know. I see it maybe like three or four times. I'm not convinced that she does any of her own shopping. I'm not sure why she's there.
28:04.83
lostinthegroove
She has a reason.
28:06.09
yes
I don't know. I don't know why on earth she would need to go there like at all.
28:07.18
lostinthegroove
And it's schwifty.
28:10.10
yes
I hardly need to go there.
28:14.10
lostinthegroove
and like I sometimes have like those what weird thoughts of, imagine Elton John going to the Air 1 to pick up a smoothie for his fiance. Where else are you gonna find Elton John but an Air 1?
28:29.15
yes
I feel like, do you think that like she goes to the Whole Foods to like play like regular person, like, I'm going to be like a regular person and chop up my own cucumbers.
28:43.65
yes
a
28:44.90
lostinthegroove
yeah I mean, the thing about Taylor Swift is she's so far from being like everybody else. She's so famous. Like, she's super famous.
28:53.49
