The clip has already been viewed more than 33 million times, but it has also received negative reactions. This mainly relates to one specific scene: the one where she steps on a scale that tells her she is “fat”. To the side, her likeness looks on disapprovingly.
Critics took to Twitter to express their displeasure. For example, one wrote: “Picturing obesity as a bad thing, as something to be feared, is inexplicable. The fear of obesity is the beginning fat phobia. Having an eating disorder doesn’t excuse you from this, even if you’re Taylor Swift.
