No it's Becky.


Taylor essentially won the internet this week. I mean she's already had twitter in her pocket and Instagram as well but lately she has been completely taking over Tumblr (and it is freaking awesome). Her posts are magical and just when we were thinking it couldn't get any better or any more exciting (I mean she is replying to fans and reblogging their posts!) Taylor surprised us all and sent the entire Swiftie fandom (and the rest of the online world) into a tail spin. 

Any swiftie who is on tumblr knows about Becky. It's been an inside joke in our fandom for what seems like forever. For those who don't know- a person posted a picture on tumblr of a young girl and captioned it saying it was there friend Becky who died at a party from snorting maranjuana (yes, seriously.) Someone commented on the post saying that they wre pretty sure the girl in the picture is Taylor Swift (it's an old picture from her high school days) and the original poster commented back "no it's Becky" and that is how the legend of Becky began. 


Apparently Taylor knew of Becky, or she recently discovered her on Tumblr- I'm not quite sure, but she decided to take part in the joke. Yesterday Taylor stepped out wearing a yellow tee shirt that simply says "no its Becky" on it. The fandom has all but died since seeing it yesterday.
 


Then, as if that wasn't enough, Miss Swift took to Tumblr and posted a replica of the 1989 album cover with her Becky shirt on captioning it "I'm kind of rethinking the album cover" and now Swifties everywhere are laying on the cold hard ground laughing their asses off at how incredible, amazing, wonderful, and hilarious our idol is. 

In all reality, what other idol has ever taken part in an inside joke of their fandom? None that I can think of. But that is part of what makes Taylor so different and so special. We love you Beck- uh I mean Taylor!
