(Uncensored Video) đȘTayRewind: Taylor Swiftâs Kennedy Era
Added 2025-07-17 12:59:54 +0000 UTCBefore Bleachella and Roman Holiday, there was Hyannis Port. In this episode, we revisit the summer of 2012, when Taylor Swift was deep in her Kennedy obsession and dating Conor Kennedy. From buying a house next to the compound to writing fan fiction about Ethel Kennedy, we unpack how this whirlwind romance shaped the Red era, her American royalty fantasy, and the myth-making that followed. Was it love? PR? Or just a brief chapter in her quest to become part of a dynasty?
Comments
I always had an issue with it being so soon after Conor's mother's died in awful circumstances (RFK Jr. treated her horribly in life & in death...if anyone reads this comment, look into that bc it's frightening & illustrates just how bad he is!) bc of his emotional vulnerability, but what tipped this over into "inappropriate": he wasn't just in high school, he was a JUNIOR. Most newly-minted 18 y/os are either starting uni or their last year of high school. It really makes me wonder, what the actual fuck did Taylor & Conor talk about? Before watching this video, I was fully under the impression that he'd finished high school but not gone to uni, which was the same education level Taylor had, so I figured that leveled things a bit, but now...they couldn't possibly have had anything in common. WTF. (PS I originally wrote this comment on the YouTube channelâI joined the Patreon shortly after this video came out & only just got around to putting it up on here now)

2025-07-19 22:09:20 +0000 UTCI didnât know that about needing to rent a house on the Kennedy compoundâŠtbh it almost makes buying the mansion slightly less crazy? Like âIâve already dropped $X, I may as well get some equityâ đ

2025-07-19 19:03:54 +0000 UTCRe: the wedding fiasco, I bet it was a shit show, where Aunt Vicky is freaking out and then the bride tells Taylor thanks to save face but then turns around and says âmom, get her out of here!â

2025-07-19 18:59:14 +0000 UTCGosh how terrible is it that in 2025 I hear she bought a cape cod mansion for $5M and think âwow what a dealâ đ

2025-07-18 16:17:53 +0000 UTCOkay so everyone has always said he was in high school but it was late July & he was already 18?? Usually the only 18yr olds still going to HS in the summer at that age are ones that either failed classes & have to make up summer credits/must return in the fall as âsuper seniorsâ for another year, or they got held back at some point and are a year older than all their peers, but I seriously doubt that was the case for this Kennedy kid so now Iâm genuinely curious why đ§ Is this typical for prep school/private schools for the wealthy elite types in the US? I teach high school but Iâve only ever worked in lowly public schools lol Nearly all of my 12th grade students turn 18 some time during their senior year/spring term or in those summer months between HS graduation and starting college so Iâm confused about why he was still there.

2025-07-18 06:19:45 +0000 UTCJFK served in WWII not the Cold War. The Cold War wasn't really a war. It was a term given to the tense time period from 1945 to 1991 when the US and The Soviet Union built up their nuclear arsenals and threatened each other (and the World at large) with the possibility of nuclear war. Patrick Schwarzenegger is related to the Kennedys through his mother, Maria Shriver who is the daughter of Eunice Kennedy Shriver (a sister of JFK). The real question is: Why would Taylor want to join a family known for plane crashes when she flies around regularly? Joseph Kennedy Jr. , the eldest brother of JFK, (and the one that the family had the highest hopes for) died in a plane crash during a military maneuver during WWII. Kathleen (Kennedy) Cavendish, sister of JFK died in a passenger plane crash in 1948. JFK Jr, his wife, and her sister died in a private plane crash in 1999.

2025-07-18 02:47:14 +0000 UTCWeird side note. My cousin is married to Mark Shriver. Does this mean I could have helped Taylor with in? Missed opportunity.

2025-07-18 01:49:33 +0000 UTCBravo!! This episode was perfection. Now Iâm going to go fall in a rabbit hole of Kennedy research. It will be my personality for the next week. So thanks for my new ADHD hyper fixation! đ€Łđ€

2025-07-17 18:06:26 +0000 UTCI agree I HATE when people just casually throw around the word grooming without knowing what it actually means because it kind of undermines the seriousness of grooming.

2025-07-17 15:53:10 +0000 UTCDang thatâs so sad about his mom and I bet Taylor provided a big welcome distraction for his grief. He probably still ties that painful time to Taylor and maybe it feels like a fever dream.

2025-07-17 15:21:25 +0000 UTCA friend of mine was on vacation in Cape Cod when Taylor was going through this phase. She remembers Taylor and her friends rolling up to an ice cream shop screaming and cheering. According to her, they were just a group of girls in their 20s which really threw her off.

2025-07-17 15:18:08 +0000 UTCI believe it was Roryâs wedding that JFK and Carolyn were flying to when they crashed.
Dana Hinton
2025-07-17 15:18:01 +0000 UTCI understand her interest in the Kennedys. Iâve been fascinated with them. Especially Jackie O. We have a handwritten note from her where I work where she thanked the staff of nurses for helping with the labor and delivery of JFK Jr. Swoon!
Dana Hinton
2025-07-17 15:14:43 +0000 UTCThank you for this DELICIOUS Tayrewind food. I remember my friends making fun of me during this era cause they asked âwhat do you think of Taylor and Conor Kennedyâ and 15 y/o stan-brained me was like âwell umâŠ.if sheâs happy iâm happy.â LMAO

2025-07-17 15:11:12 +0000 UTCI always wished this part of her reality would blip into the abyss because I hated this for her. I understand she was blinded by the "kennedy" bs but MY GOD WOMAN. EW IN RETROSPECT

Michelle Forge
2025-07-17 14:21:00 +0000 UTCAs someone from South Africa I really had no idea about the Kennedy lore and I fear Iâve fallen down the rabbit hole đ« I find it fascinating that Taylor wanted to be associated with something I guess kinda political. I know itâs different times but wow the difference between now and then. I guess with more fame comes more brand awareness? Her fashion and HAIR was so gorgeous in this era đââïž I wish she would explore that style again.

2025-07-17 13:54:18 +0000 UTCSo, my cousin started dating his now wife when he was 17 and she was 21. It was a little problematic at the time, but after 6 years together, they got married. My brother is 7 years older than his wife⊠when they started dating, her parents were a little concerned about him being so much older than her, although they were both grown adults (she was in grad school). Their concern was completely hypocritical though because her mom is 7 years older than her dad!
