"Well, 'Dorothea' is about me, one of her songs. I feel like a lot of moments, huge moments, that were self-defining, from relationships to family to love to hate, all of it in between, we were figuring it out [together] because I was 15 and she was 18. We didn't really know what was going on, and so we've never seen each other any differently."
"'Dorothea,' featured on Swift's 2020 album, tells the story of a girl who left her hometown and made it big by 'selling makeup and magazines,' from the perspective of an old friend who recalls their childhood memories and offers her a safe home to return to."
