Why fans are searching for ‘Taylor Swift belly button’
The “Lover” singer’s belly button has again started trending on social media. While the mystery seems to have existed for approximately 10 years, the singer has barely tried to quash the fan theories.
Since 2014, Taylor Swift’s belly button has managed to stir chaos among Swifties. The singer has worn crop tops at many events, but she has chosen not to show her belly button. In some rare instances, fans have been able to spot the “Fortnight” hitmaker’s belly button. However, most of her fandom still theorizes that her navel does not exist.
In 2014, Swift spoke about her belly button while speaking to Lucky Magazine and revealed that she is not fond of it. She said, “I don’t like showing my belly button.” The pop icon asserted that showing one’s belly button means that a person is “committing to the midriff thing.” (via USA Today)
Furthermore, Swift noted that she follows the midriff fashion “partially,” and fans are only allowed to see her “lower rib cage.” She continued, “I don’t want people to know if I have one or not. I want that to be a mystery.”
Taylor Swift further added, “As far as anyone knows, based on my public appearances, they haven’t seen evidence of a belly button. It could be pierced. They have no idea. If I’m going to get some sort of massive tattoo, it’s going to be right next to my belly button because no one’s ever going to see that.”
