“A tiny screen’s the only place I see you now / And I got nothin’ but well wishes for ya,” Taylor sings. “You’rе a queen sellin’ dreams, sellin’ makeup and magazines. Ooh, from you, I’d buy anything.”
The lyrics are likely a reference to makeup line Rare Beauty, which, according to Forbes, had nearly $370 million in revenue in 2023.
