Who is your celebrity crush?

Welcome to Tuesday 10, a new short-form segment of Pit Perspectives. Our opinions are a little messier, and the topics are a little less important. Enjoy candid and anonymous opinions more similar to confessions than convictions.

Listen to our hosts react to UNC students admitting their love for everyone from Kim Possible to Matthew Gray Gubler to the fox from Zootopia. We discuss celebrity crushes, sexual awakenings, fan-fiction, and more in this short segment that'll make you cringe, laugh, smile, and hopefully share with a friend.

Welcome to Pit Perspectives Season 5! Thanks for joining us and returning to the show for our third year.

Taylor Swift has lived in news headlines for over a decade now. Recently, her Ticketmaster drama and criticism of her private jet usage have ruled her public image, though her new relationship with NFL player Travis Kelce is starting to rewrite the media cycle.

Today we're staying out of the politics and diving into the personal; what do UNC students think about Taylor Swift as an artist, a businesswoman, a girlfriend, a celebrity, and an industry powerhouse?

Students shared both their love of her music and their visceral hatred for the community she's created; some accused her fandom of being just privileged white women and others celebrated her for paving the way for other women in the industry. Some complained that they've heard enough of her breakups and others wished we'd stop treating her as if she's no more than the men she dates.

Today's episode is a short and sweet introduction to Pit Perspectives Fall 2023. But although we aren't diving as deep into history, philosophy, or politics, you'll leave the episode with just as many new questions and curiosities about yourself and your peers.

We end the episode with a question: what does your Taylor Swift opinion say about you?

We'd like to thank Jesse Ainslie for this episode's music. His work can be found here: jesseainslie.com
