Taylor Swift: Pop music is like Hunger Games

Taylor Swift has likened pop music to "The Hunger Games".

The ‘Look What You Made Me Do’ hitmaker has branded herself to a "gladiator" and admits it can be "intense" over analysing everything she does.

She said: "Pop music can feel like The Hunger Games, and we’re gladiators. Over-analysing everything makes it feel really intense."

And the 30-year-old singer has been enjoying the time off she has had in lockdown with her boyfriend Joe Alwyn.

Speaking to The Sun on Sunday newspaper, she added: "A lot of people have been watching lots and lots of TV in this time of quarantine and I’ve been watching some old films I hadn’t seen before. I love spending a full evening cooking a meal, while sipping a glass of wine and listening to old music, then watching an old film. I hadn’t seen Rear Window with Grace Kelly, by Alfred Hitchcock. It was phenomenal. During this time, I’ve also done a lot of FaceTime – especially with family, which is hilarious."

Taylor previously revealed she has been having "weekly family FaceTimes" with her relatives as well as her close friends.

She added: "It’s safe to say we are living through unprecedented times right now. I am hoping that all of you are safe and healthy. A lot of my friends and I have been doing sort of a weekly family FaceTime, which is always hilarious."I think it’s really important that we all stay connected because isolation doesn’t have to be an all-encompassing thing. We may be isolated, physically, but we can still keep in touch with people. We can still play games with our friends and family on our phones … that is one of the great things about modern technology."
