Taylor Swift, Too, Says the Darndest Things

Taylor Swift cares! She cares. She cares about all things big and small. She cares a ton even when she’s not trying, or when she can’t even try because she‘s been drugged (by a doctor!). Case in point: She got Lasik eye surgery, and it’s a nice thing to do if you need to be able to see thousands of screaming fans without the dry hassle of contacts. But that means she was on some pretty intense painkillers post-op. Her mom took one of those classic “caring for a kid while said kid is on drugs after a major surgery” videos, an internet video category that has given us a ton of content over the years.

In Swift‘s version, she tried to eat a banana, and got emotional when it ripped the “head” off a different banana. Justice for bananas without the stem so that they’re left to get a little brown on top! Swift cares! And also, when you think about it, she’s just like us. She too gets woozy on painkillers, says the darndest things, and her mother laughs while filming her. YouTube was built on these types of videos!

The clip was a surprise to Swift, it would appear. It comes courtesy of Jimmy Fallon, a man who has Swift’s mother’s number even though, as Swift told him, “Nobody has my mom’s number.” They conspired to surprise Swift and the rest of the country with the banana incident.

Which is great! Because she left us with this, after her mother told her not to fall asleep: “I’m not asleep. My mind is alive.” And isn’t that the message one needs heading into the weekend? Keep your mind alive, all. And Taylor Swift cares, and also she’s going to be performing on Saturday Night Live this Saturday night. Happy Friday.
