Taylor Swift's secrets about her new and upcoming seventh album are all out. It is named as Lover, and it will be released on August 23 including the other 16 tracks aside from ME! and You Need To Calm Down.
These recent revelations made a lot of fans happy and excited as these are already long overdue. With all of the "Easter eggs" that she laid out earlier this year, it just fits to uncover them all finally. So today, Swifties are just counting days before Lover officially arrives.
However, the waiting game has not been very peaceful, especially for Taylor Swift. Upon giving out the revelations about her new music, the Lover artist also released her album's second single titled, You Need To Calm Down. And while asking everyone "to calm down," this recently released single of hers created a huge commotion.
As it happens, You Need To Calm Down seems to aim of becoming a "Pride anthem." And with Taylor Swift's efforts for the LGBTQ community as well as for the music video of her latest single, a lot of people are claiming that she is trying to be an "icon" for the community.
Of course, these things are not widely accepted by everyone. Taylor Swift, along with You Need To Calm Down, became the center of many headlines and reports. And when its music video followed a few days after, it even boosted the fire of the controversies as it featured several well-known LGBTQ personalities.
Nevertheless, this did not stop Taylor from bringing up her A-game. There were even reports that claim that she is gaining profits from all of the commotion. In short, the controversies became free publicity materials for her music and upcoming album. But with these allegations at hand, it only caused divisions in the community as well as to the fans.
The LGBTQ community seemingly appears to have diverse opinion about Taylor Swift and her recently released single. And according to LGBTQ Nation, Taylor is voted out in attending the upcoming Pride parade in New York this weekend.
But as per the opinions of some members in the community, they emphasize that Taylor is voted out from being the "icon" of the Pride or LGBTQ. And this does not mean that she is no longer welcome to attend the parade. These are "two different things," according to some LGBTQ individuals.
The upcoming Pride parade in New York City this year is set to happen on July 1. And while reports continue to state that Taylor Swift is not invited, there are no confirmations yet if these things are all true.
