Taylor Swift in Mary Katrantzou at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards

Taylor Swift’s live singing isn’t much to write home about but her parallel bars routine really wowed the crowd. And weren’t we all so impressed with her tucking skills?

HAHAHAHAHA

Okay, seriously. Lorenzo would like to step up to the podium and defend this look. Tom will stand behind him and prod him like a psycho dance mom.

“Well… I think it’s an interesting idea…and I like the design… and it’s different, right? But yeah, all right. Her crotch looks weird.”

“AND?”

“And she doesn’t have nearly the…

“Go ahead. ‘Nearly the…'”

“Nearly the ass to fill this out.”

“Very good. AND?”

“…”

“It looks like…?”

“OH! And it looks like Sesame Street upholstery.”

“Attaboy. Do you want some juice now?”

Okay, that was all pretty much fictional. Here’s the real T Lo assessment. Tom did in fact laugh out loud at this and Lorenzo did in fact defend the design by saying it could work on the right body with the right attitude. That’s true. It’s a fairly basic romper, after all. But we really hate the way the leg holes flare out slightly. It distorts her hips, puts focus on her crotch, and doesn’t look very flattering. We also like the purple version much better. Of course Tay would pick the blander version.

Is anyone else severely distracted by the fact that there appears to be only six letters on that thing and they don’t spell anything?
