Taylor Swift Tells Fan to Call Her "Aunt Becky"
Written By Savvy Auntie Staff Writers
Taylor Swift, the rock-'n'-roll-country-pop star known for spreading kindness and cheer to her fans, is proving herself as a role-model once again. Recently, the mom of a fan who called Taylor "mom" - as a slang term of respect, reached out to Taylor in dismay via video.
So what did the soon-to-be godmother to BFF Jaime King's baby do? Swift responded beautifully in her Tumblr account to the young fan:
Maddie.
This is a passionate plea and I see her reasoning.
Your mom birthed you.
I was off playing in coffee houses.
Your mom tended to you when you cried as a toddler.
I drew lyrics on my arms and stomped around in cowboy boots while you cried in the night.
Your mom taught you how to speak and read.
I was like ‘come on! Let’s all have fun and jump around at this concert and paint our faces with glitter!’
So no, I have not earned the right to be referred to as your 'Mom’.
I’m more like your crazy aunt.
So you shall not call me 'Mom’.
No, it’s Aunt Becky.
Two Aunt Beckys have made the news recently. Last week, Netflix announced that Lori Loughlin would reprise to her role as "Aunt Becky" in Fuller House, the Full House reboot. And now we have Taylor Swift in her pseudonym, "Aunt Becky."
