The music video currently has 33 million views and counting, so we doubt she\u2019d want to delete and re-upload it! Also, Taylor and Apple Music did not respond to a request for comment from <em>Variety<\/em>, so it seems like she\u2019s trying to make this switch as subtly as possible.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s definitely interesting to see Taylor take such a big step. Since the video was very much autobiographical, detailing her own insecurities and experiences with eating disorders, we can understand why she included the scene and didn\u2019t think it would cause such an uproar.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: Scooter Admits \u2018Regret\u2019 Over How He Handled Purchase Of Taylor\u2019s Music<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The songwriter first got candid about her body image issues in her 2020 <strong>Netflix<\/strong> documentary <em>Miss Americana<\/em>. In the film, she revealed:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201c[When I see a] picture of me where I feel like I looked like my tummy was too big, or\u2026 someone said that I looked pregnant \u2026 and that\u2019ll just trigger me to just starve a little bit \u2014 just stop eating.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>She elaborated even more on the sensitive subject in a cover story with <em>Variety<\/em> at the time, adding:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI didn\u2019t know if I was going to feel comfortable with talking about body image and talking about the stuff I\u2019ve gone through in terms of how unhealthy that\u2019s been for me \u2014 my relationship with food and all that over the years. But the way that <strong>Lana<\/strong> (<strong>Wilson<\/strong>, the film\u2019s director) tells the story, it really makes sense. I\u2019m not as articulate as I should be about this topic because there are so many people who could talk about it in a better way. But all I know is my own experience. And my relationship with food was exactly the same psychology that I applied to everything else in my life: If I was given a pat on the head, I registered that as good. If I was given a punishment, I registered that as bad.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>So far, the edit is creating a division among Swifties, with some happy to see the scale gone and others upset Taylor had to make a change. Take a look at some of the hot takes (below):<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI actually think the edit to the Anti-Hero video makes that clip MORE meaningful because before it was the scale objectively telling her she\u2019s fat (in a bad way) but now it\u2019s her and her toxic self looking at the scale and the toxic self is telling her her weight is bad.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cok but as someone who has struggled with weight gain and is plus sized, i\u2019m shocked by people spinning taylor\u2019s ed against her from the anti hero mv- she never said fat was a bad word, she\u2019s literally showing how her ed had control over her\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can love an artist and still critique them! The fat scale in anti hero was a mistake. There are many ways to express body dysmorphia without marginalizing people\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Hmm.
