About
Sad Taylor Swift is a photoshop meme based on a photograph of Taylor Swift seated on a park bench resting her head on her hand. After the picture began circulating online in late January 2017, many noted its striking resemblance to the Sad Keanu photograph.
Origin
On August 1st, 2014, The Daily Mail[6] published several photographs of Swift eating a cup of frozen yogurt and sitting by herself in a park in New York City (shown below). On January 25th, 2017, a photo from the article in which Swift is shown resting her chin on the palm of her hand was uploaded to Imgur (shown below, right).[1]
Spread
That day, Redditor Susan_Is_Not_A_Bitch submitted the photo to the /r/PhotoshopBattles subreddit.[7] Within 48 hours, the post garnered more than 2,700 points (91% upvoted) and 190 comments, many of which contained photoshopped variations of the picture (shown below).
On January 27th, 2017, the iO Trendz YouTube channel posted a video about the photoshop meme (shown below). In the coming days, several news sites published articles about the photoshop meme, including Complex,[2] BroBible,[3] The Chive,[4] Rsvlts.[5]
