For you non-Brits, “cussed” is slang for stubborn and difficult to deal with.
And that’s Taylor Swift slang for shutting. it. down.
*CROWD CHEERS*
So get this. After realizing she’d been “taking a feminist stance without actually saying so” for a while, Ms. Swift, was like, yeah, I’m a feminist, fo sho. And yeah, she’s been sticking up for herself and others for a while (EVER), and this is a great example of The Power of the Swift Stance.
You just got served, well meaning but really patronizing bad manners/bad joke moment! Her delivery is purrfect.
And to add fierceness to amazingness, she even threw Instagram shade at Cleese after the interview!
I know she’s busy writing songs about way better things and just generally being who I want to be when I grow up, but I would *not* mind a B-side live acoustic version of “The Proper Cat (Meredith Straight Chillin’).”
Just sayin’.
