In the clip, Taylor opened up about how she’d come to terms with feeling more comfortable in her own skin, but she admitted that she would get defensive when loved ones would ask about how thin she was. “I don’t care as much if like, somebody points out that I have gained weight. It’s just something that makes my life better,” she said. “I would’ve defended it to anyone who said, ‘I’m concerned about you.’ I was like, ‘What are you talking about? Of course, I eat. It’s perfectly normal. I just exercise a lot.’ And, I did exercise a lot, but I wasn’t eating.”

At the end of the clip, the “Anti-Hero” popstar admitted that trying to meet beauty standards is a vicious cycle because it’s not attainable. “There’s always some standard of beauty that you’re not meeting, because if you’re thin enough, then you don’t have that a** that everybody wants, but if you have enough weight on you to have an a**, then, your stomach isn’t flat enough,” she said. “It’s all just f****** impossible.”
Gaga wrote a sweet comment on the clip to praise Taylor for speaking out about her struggles. “That’s really brave everything you said,” she wrote with a black heart emoji. “Wow.”
