Jennifer Lopez not only wrote a whole album, but created an entire film about her second time around with Ben Affleck. “ The Boy Is Mine” is nominally a song about the heady and forbidden thrill of being The Other Woman, but it’s mostly about Ariana Grande feeling triumphant about being a homewrecker.

While you can theoretically enjoy the songs on their own, “ Is It Over Now? (Taylor’s Version)” is not a song about the confusion, jealousy, and resentment left at the end of an on-and-off relationship where you’ve both casually dated others and realize you’re not cut out for that, it’s about Taylor Swift and Harry Styles breaking up while on vacation in the Virgin Islands, after which she was forced to leave alone, sitting on a boat in a blue dress. Taylor Swift’s entire musical body of work is a literal memoir - to ignore her personal life is at best, to deny yourself a fully three-dimensional song, and at worst, leaves you totally perplexed.

This isn’t anything new, and rather extends from a tradition including Joni Mitchell, Carly Simon, and Alanis Morrisette, but it’s taken on a certain recent vogue with the superstar ascendancy of Taylor Swift.

Many celebrity-singers working today actively nurture and exploit their personal lives, capitalizing on tabloid gossip and Reddit rumors to craft a sort of extended Nonfiction-pop Universe, rather than using them in service of a song that is then tweaked to feel universal and easily grafted onto any listener’s life - the thing that makes popular music so popular. There are times when a musician or performing artist’s work is irrevocably intertwined with their personal life in a way that makes it impossible to ignore, and also comes at the cost of understanding or enriching their work.
