* [[Bad Job, Worse Uniform]]: The waitress in the "Mean" music video has to dress up as a giant cardboard star.

* [[Madonna
** The "You Belong With Me" video provides the page image.

* [[Silly Love Songs]]: "Love Story" lampshades itself as this.
Line 241:

* [[
* [[Woman Scorned]]: Go ahead. Make a [[Drinking Game]] out of it.
* [[You Keep Using That Word]]: In "Love Story", Swift says she "was a scarlet letter", presumably meaning [[Forbidden Fruit]], as in [[Overprotective Dad|My Daughter Is Off Limits]]. However, [[The Scarlet Letter]] actually refers to a badge of shame worn by an outcast (said of the one worn by the main character in the book).
