Taylor Swift has actually located a brand-new competitor: Lestat de Lioncourt, also known as the imaginary vampire initially penned by Anne Rice and presently played by Sam Reid in AMC’s Interview With the Vampire.
For context, over the weekend break AMC launched a very first clip of the upcoming 3rd period, where Lestat ends up being a superstar (as he will certainly in the 3rd period; a lot more on that particular listed below). The little intro revealed Reid as Lestat taking a seat for a meeting and typically imitating a little bit of a queen. Reid is currently skillful as the theatrical Lestat, yet this brief video clip reveals simply exactly how best a superstar Lestat absolutely os.
Here’s where points obtain enjoyable. In a given that removed X message, a follower compared photos of Lestat in this clip with several of Taylor Swift in her “Blank Space” video, with the verse “I’ve got a long list of ex-lovers, they’ll tell you I’m insane”– a referral to Lestat’s harmful partnership with Louis, which gas the initial 2 periods of the program.
And after that, since this is the web and X in the year 2024, some individuals angered.

Now given that this is the web and X in 2024, it is completely feasible that the individual that reacted with an enthusiastic protection of Taylor Swift was trolling. However, that did not quit individuals from taking that and keeping up it, since the concept of Lestat beginning a stan battle on X was simply so damn in personality.

It likewise aided that Taylor Swift serendipitously played “I Don’t Wanna to Live Forever” as a shock track at her latest show. Talk regarding timing (what if I told you she’s a mastermind?).

Personally, I believe we need to match imaginary personalities versus celebs regularly; this is what web craze need to be made use of for, in fact.
The 3rd period of Interview with the Vampire is mosting likely to adhere to The Vampire Lestat, the 2nd publication in Anne Rice’s Vampire Chronicles collection. It’s everything about Lestat as a rock celebrity, because, yeah, naturally Lestat would certainly come to be a rock celebrity. It likewise opens up with 2 outright banger paragraphs, where Lestat defines just how warm he is, as one does. It’s providing Ebony Darkness Dementia Way of My Immortal popularity.
I am theVampire Lestat I’m never-ceasing. More or much less. The light of the sunlight, the continual warm of an extreme fire– these points may damage me. But however, they may not.
I’m 6 feet high, which was rather outstanding in the 1780s when I was a young temporal guy. It’s tolerable currently. I have thick blonde hair, not rather bear size, and instead curly, which shows up white under fluorescent light. My eyes are grey, yet they take in the shades blue or violet conveniently from surface areas around them. And I have a relatively brief slim nose, and a mouth that is well designed yet simply a little as well huge for my face. It can look extremely mean, or incredibly charitable, my mouth. It constantly looks sensuous. But feelings and perspectives are constantly mirrored in my whole expression. I have a constantly computer animated face.
Reid states the initial paragraph of this in its completely outrageous delight in the trailer, which bodes well for simply exactly how outstanding this brand-new period will certainly be.
Oh, and in instance you were asking yourself … yes they did launch the complete in-universe track with a super-extra verse video clip.
Your step, Taylor.
