Now that @meesh finally sat me down to watch the Harry Potter series in its entirety for the first time… I must admit that I see every assembly of OG wizards through the lens of Mighty Boosh: https://youtu.be/P7RbjtW1wyk?si=eNYSYw5SSLmnz0Zi

If any of you have heard the Harry Potter fanfiction + /taylorswift conspiracy theory, I’m here to say after a deep dive into both I’d bet:

-at most she could potentially be a fan based on the evidence
-influence in her music goes no further than light homages, at most

Otherwise, I feel the evidence is weak.

Not quite. A subset of her fans are theorizing that TS is also an anonymous HP fan fiction writer and they are looking for evidence of Easter eggs in her new songs. 

But the examples they cite are pretty vague and generic references that are likely coincidental.

this conspiracy is spicier than flat earth theory

It’s a hot one. It’s just too shaky… like a certain line could sound very plausible, followed by a line that has nothing to do with and breaks the connection to HP. 

I do give an easy 40% chance she is a fan of the series to some extent, and it’s totally possible she borrowed a reference on occasion. No more.
