Even with all the transformations Taylor Swift has undergone during her 16-year-long career as America's foremost Country Pop Princess, nothing could have prepared me for the moment she decided to dip her toe in the drag king pond, which she has done in her latest music video for"The Man.
As a song,"The Man" is about what Swift imagines her life would look like if she were of the inferior sex. In her words, she would be"complex,""cool," a"fearless leader," and an"alpha type.""When everyone believes you," she asks,"what's that like?" It's a tongue-in-cheek poke at sexism and misogyny. Fittingly, the accompanying music video finds the singer envisioning this by embodying one of the most"Man" types of men there is: a wealthy CEO-type. He runs around his office barking at his employees, who then cheer him on. He paces back and forth on a massive yacht yelling at someone over the phone, and then a butler brings him a glass of raspberry-filled champagne while a crowd of bikini-clad women dance around him.
The music video is expectedly fun, with Swift clearly having the time of her life as she indulges in all the worst traits of male entitlement. It's made even more entertaining by the inclusion of singer and TikTok star Loren Gray, who plays the unwitting woman on the other side of The Man's tennis match.
