Quick refresher from the Taylor Swift Rosetta Stone: “Begin Again” is about how Jake Gyllenhaal was a butthead who mocked Taylor’s music taste and wouldn’t let her wear high heels, so she found a nice guy (Conor? the Parachute guy?) to hang out with. In the video, Taylor upgrades to a hot French dude, who is apparently so nice that he can get away with creepily taking photos of her twenty seconds after their introduction. But he really is handsome! One more thought: Does this remind anyone else of Adele’s “Someone Like You” video? Why is Paris the place we go to be sad now? Isn’t it for making out and macarons and stuff?
