Inside Tiktok's MOST HATED Taylor Swift Impersonator

[@nickleese]

I hate how she acts like she doesn’t see the resemblance despite making a million videos with Taylor sounds

[@MaknaeUlzzang]

And purposely dresses like her

[@t_ylr]

Yeah without the hair and makeup she kinda looks like her, but no one would be confused. She knows exactly what she's doing. Like an actor or performer doing a celebrity impression is fine, but just walking around interacting with regular ppl feels creepy

[@AntiStraightMaleSociety]

She's Taylor Swift from Dollar Tree

[@gaceofspades]

​@@t_ylrshe doesn't even look much like her. The res lip, the make up to make her eyes and bone structure look like taylors, the hair, the clothes

[@ara169]

And she had plastic surgery to have that physical "resemblance" which is scary af

[@kayleighstover8225]

What I find crazy, is that if she marketed herself as a professional celebrity impersonator, she would do NUMBERS. It’s the “haha I don’t even see the resemblance” and “I don’t even try to look like her” that’s so infuriating.

[@meganthemuffinman]

Right, and then it wouldn't seem to creepy! I've seen so many impersonators of Dolly Parton, Britney Spears, Cher etc who look just like them (some can even sing just like them) and they get loads of support. It's not being a celebrity impersonator that's the problem, it's the way Ashley is going about it. She's coming off as obsessed and delusional.

[@fayesversion]

@@meganthemuffinman agree! Also borderline creepy.. other celebrity impersonators usually be themselves when they don’t do their job as impersonator.. while ashley makes it her whole personality and like you said, deny that she tries to look like taylor, when clearly she tries so hard not just to look like her, but almost like she tries to BE her.. it’s so creepy

[@ellehampton8804]

Exactly - if she owned it and said “I’m a huge fan and this is how I pay homage to her” it wouldn’t be off putting. It’s just weird when she says things like “I don’t see it. Come on, I have brown eyes and hers are blue.” She hasn’t always looked like her, and obviously styles herself to look more like her. She has even changed her voice and mannerisms to be more like TS. And having the same favorite number, loving the same TV show, and getting a cat who looks like Taylor’s? Come on, girl, just be real with it. As a Swiftie, I can say that one of things I love the most about Taylor is that she is authentic and genuine. I’d get it if Ashley said “I really enjoy mirroring parts of her life. It makes me happy, and I hope Swifties will watch my content and enjoy seeing an everyday mom who resembles Taylor who imagines what it would be like to actually be her. So, let’s talk about which outfit I should wear to cosplay Dear John.” Or “You’ve asked if I can sing. The answer is NO! Here’s proof with me butchering “Back to December.” I’d be all in for that funny, relatable person who isn’t trying too hard and not living the truth.

I think that the only person she's really hurting is herself, there is a deeply unhealthy parasocial attachment to this and I absolutely don't think for a second she genuinely believes all of this is 'coincidence' or that she isn't putting in massive effort to achieve the same appearance and mannerisms - I think she wants other people to believe that to be the case. Ashley desperately needs to be seeing a therapist for this behavior because it's clear she is not a mentally well individual.

[@twothousandandchew]

i wonder if she genuinely has tricked herself into believing that she doesn’t keep up with taylor / is not a fan and doesn’t think about her and be “influenced” by her or if she knows and is lying to others and not herself

[@swiftlyaswiftie]

I think in a way, she's also indirectly hurting Taylor. She's promoting this behaviour of fans bothering Taylor when Taylor has spoken out about how much she hates this. If Ashley keeps this up I won't be surprised if Taylor or her team does something about it

[@pinkeegoobox]

I find it deeply unsettling that she would go to such lengths (hairstyle, makeup, **adopting a living sentient being**, possible surgery/implants) to look like a celebrity. When Taylor Swift talks about sometimes fame making her not feeling fully human this absolutely includes individuals like this woman. She doesn't even look that much like her, she is making herself look like her and I hate that she is receiving so much attention.

I went to a concert of a Bowie impersonator and the difference between him and Ashley is very noticeable. The Bowie impersonator I saw, embraced Bowie, talking about his career and life (fun fact: the impersonator was actually a neighbour of Bowie, who had gone to one of his gigs). The point of the impersonator was to embrace the celebrity and share the love and admiration that celebrity gives to fans who are unable to see the celebrity in person for whatever reason.

The thing that makes it unsettling, is how out of her way she HAS to go to look and act like her, because she really doesn't. She has moments where she does, after she's spent however long perfecting her make up and videos/photos to look and act like her, and when she has sunglasses on I couldn't blame anyone for fully thinking it was her (especially with the bouncers), but on that interview where you get a good long look at her and her mannerisms, she doesn't. There's no resemblance without a lot of effort and it fools no-one. Impersonators are fine, because they own what they are doing and that they're a separate person. Look a-likes exist and laugh it off or lean into but not to the extent where they are purposefully trying to be recognized as this person. It feels weird because it is a calculated manipulation that makes you feel gaslighted, and the fact that she thinks she can lie about what she's doing solidifies that feeling. I'd be insulted and unnerved if I was Taylor personally. It's one thing to draw inspiration, it's another thing to 'Single White Female' someone.

She's sick... it's scary just to think about how empty is her life that she must live another people's life

[@wowamber5107]

Being a inpersonator is one thing other is wanting to live in their skin and pretending to be them in their day to day

[@nora-xk3jt]

i was at the same mall where ashley did that prank, me and my sisters were ruining around trying to find "taylor". my younger cousin took a picture with ashley, because SHE SAID she was taylor. the look of her face was pure joy, and she was devastated when we told her it wasn’t taylor. really wasn’t that fun to us

[@bunnyfrosting1744]

It’s like she is so obsessed that she wants to personally adopt some of the burden TS feels from how famous she is. At least the claim that she dislikes the attention, yet continues to keep it going, leads me to believe that

[@Urm0mz]

This was common back in the day. People would do this as Elvis, Tupac, Michael Jackson. And not just impersonation. Fully immersion themselves in the idea that they live in duality with a celebrity.

[@MegCazalet]

“Partner with the Grammys”? This woman is . . . Naive, to put it as kindly as possible.

[@screamingbanshee1282]

This is another level, I don't know if I should be angry or feel pity, im not a swiftie but I believe in humans have the copyrights to their own bodies and personalities, copyright to themselves, this is insane behavior,

The thing is if she were just a impersonator nobody would care. But she keeps saying about how she tries to avoid it (clear lies) and then goes out of her way to live like Taylor. She had a mental breakdown (for show I'm sure) after Taylor commented on her video and she started crying about how important it is to her because she sees Taylors mother as her own. It's just creepy. Impersonating for a gig is fine, but like you said, people should own their own likeness and this crosses the line.

[@batsy_batsy]

If Ashley pretended to be someone who wasn't a celebrity, it would definitely be identity theft. It shouldn't be different just because Taylor Swift is a celebrity. I would regard it as identity theft and I also just find it weird that Ashley goes to great lengths to walk, talk, and look like Taylor Swift. Great video though 👍

[@bellareid3488]

This is not normal. I would not want her treating as a nurse, that's for sure! I feel sad for her, honestly

[@BelindaShort]

It would all be fine if she was just honest about it but she's either not being honest with herself, her audience or both.

[@musicismylife4441]

she’s probably acting like she has no idea what she’s doing to get more attention, and it’s working clearly

[@intensehummingofevil]

i don’t think it’s anything to get too riled up over but her playing it off as if she’s not trying is annoying

[@idkhtcmsitt]

To be fair that video of the guy thinking she met her turned out to be a joke, he knew she wasnt Taylor

[@bodanor]

Her last name is LEECHIN! How fitting 😂

[@Mel-jl8dt]

These people doing the social experiment pranks are very stupid... Some people got tranpled because of celebrity appearances. Its very dangerous. Billie eilish spoke up about this once as well

[@angelic_virgo]

She should absolutely be able to sue this woman. This is gross and creepy..

Shes like oli london, but having done the impression right of a singer shes a fan of.

she hasn't had a single surgery lol, oli took it to the extreme.

[@gleamingtwinklingandsoinviting]

@@youtubeyoutubeyoutube9961 she has some face changes,and no,it isnt makeup,theres a lot of photos of her old self which is soooooooooo far from looking like her new self

[@spyro115]

@@youtubeyoutubeyoutube9961 She did have surgical touch ups on her nose and teeth. Everything else is just natural.

[@crystaljones5357]

If she just admitted she was an impersonator it would be fine but she’s trying to dupe everyone into thinking it’s coincidence and she just happens to resemble her.

[@standyourtruth.juneb.8069]

She is such a fake, a liar and makes my stomach turn. She should be sued

[@kkswiftymeow]

I'm glad they mentioned the Ariana Grande impersonator too because it's soooo unhealthy that they both do this. It's also gross to me that they pretend to be them and the people actually think they are meeting the real person. They literally just want clout and attention, outside of them kinda looking like the celebrity, they wouldn't be popular. Just be yourself, it's not that hard 💀

[@__aquamarina]

the worst part is that she got plastic surgery to look like her

[@__aquamarina]

oh you literally said tjat

[@heavenlyarianator6335]

No the worst part is her tapping on shoulders to get attention for it 😂

[@__aquamarina]

@@heavenlyarianator6335 ya have a point 😭😭

[@rubyromaine3911]

She clearly loves and craves the attention she gets by pretending to be Taylor Swift and fooling real fans but the problem is she’s NOT her.

[@_.iridescentedits]

I remember the same girl who currently is still impersonating Ariana Grande DENIED it for the longest time and then eventually gave into accepting the fact after becoming more famous....and gained even more followers. This seems like it will turn out to be the same case, its too uncanny and just weird chet.

[@aidentan6547]

The problem is she doesn't even look like Taylor and I saw her in LA before lol

[@runningerins4027]

The thing is, you see those shows about people saying they wanted to look like Ariana Grande, Zac Efron, and just Superman. Now, they never really end up looking like them, but they’re honest about wanting to look like the celebrity. But with Ashley, she will deny it because if she says she wanted to look like her, all the attention is gone because the only reason she’s still relevant is because everyone wants her to admit it. If she came out saying that she wanted to look like Taylor, and then did the experiment, we would feel like we were in on the joke to everyone who thought it really was her. Just like every celebrity/ influence, if you ignore them, they just disappear.

[@LuvBang28]

It's usually a compliment when someone tells you that you look like a famous person. This reminds me of that other Ariana youtuber Gabi is her name? Same story..."oh I don't know much about her/I have no idea what you mean!" but then in the background you see Ariana memorabilia and do your makeup and hair the same which is most of the job then they obviously study their mannerisms and I think in some twisted reality they think they really ARE that famous person.

[@carlylovespeterweter]

ive said this before and ill say it again, taylor probably doesn't like this or any artist being impersonated

[@MySeasideRendezvous]

I’d be soooo creeped out if someone was copying exactly everything about my life

[@julieblair7472]

having a favorite number is serious business. don't steal someone else's.

[@uncleherman]

lmaooo

[@CarlosEduardo..]

it’s funny when you think about it but then you remember how the number 13 is part of taylor swift brand, it’s crazy she’s been talking about the number and the importance for her for years now so it’s weird when Ashley says it’s 13💀💀

[@issuexme9280]

I was born in the 13th so it IS my favorite number…but when she says it it sounds like such a lie. Like when she says “favorite number” I’m like that’s not a thing Ashley 😐

[@seaweed1068]

i think there's nothing wrong with people wanting to be celebrity lookalikes, i just don't understand why they deny it so much. If you wanna look like ariana grande or taylor swift and you enjoy looking like them, then just do it. It's better to admit that you just enjoy being a lookalike instead of denying it

[@swiftlyaswiftie]

The funny thing is, she doesn't look like Taylor, she looks like what you think of when you think of Taylor Swift. Taylor Swift's 'eras' reflect in her appearance as much as it does her albums and it's evident just looking at photos throughout the years of Taylor's career. That being said, Ashley looks like Taylor's most famous eras (red-1989 eras and occasionally the lover era) with that bob straight hair, the 'autumn' feel clothing. However Taylor today wears her more natural curls as well as more comfortable, street wear outfits (with black or dark blue colours)

[@Hey_Jamie]

Ko-fi is not ‘koe-fye’. It’s literally said like _coffee_

[@annabanana6965]

Filler, Botox, exact makeup, exact walk, stole her fashion style, her voice, her handwriting, her cat’s breed, cat’s name, security guards, and favorite number. Yeah..,

[@Sarahbuildsstepsequencers]

She’s a married lady with a child; if she’s making money looking like Taylor, good for her .

[@joshuafielding7667]

This just reminds me of the Ariana impersonator ; just creepy!

[@LizzieSnnow]

She's really hurting herself and goes out of her way to prove she's always looked like Taylor, to the point she's going to release a video with a surgeon to prove she hasn't had surgery. She constantly contradicts herself (she used to say she was an OG Swiftie, now she says she's never been a fan, that she doesn't know anything about Taylor really, but then she says she's a super fan too but not a Swiftie). She has bullied a lot of TS cosplayers (who disclose that they're cosplaying), claiming they're trying to look like her (not like Taylor... like Ashley). She was bashing a girl saying: "the blonde chick wearing blue contacts? Yeah that's not me, she's trying to, but she's not me" (something along those lines). She also threatened this girl with a lawyer. Funny, considering her entire "career" consists on her trying hard to be TS. This girl really needs help.

[@liaselleaeri]

the fact that she looks NOTHING like Taylor 💀 ppl see bold red lipstick and blonde hair, it's Taylor Swift 😭😭

[@Mernerwastaken]

how can this girl claim shes been a fan of swift since she was 13 when taylor wasn't even famous when she was 13?

[@maryjanedoe]

She is terrifying.... like i want to be impressed with how well she pulls it off.... but in reality im just extremely creeper out 😅

[@smallsignals]

If it's to buy you a coffee and that's the businesses point, do you think maybe Ko-Fi is just pronounced coffee?

[@kittypipkin]

She deserves any backlash she gets because she is actively doing this on purpose! She does NOT look like Taylor without trying as hard as she does. When she used to talk with a higher voice, her mouth would move more, especially the top lip but now that she talks lower like Taylor, she doesn’t move her mouth as much… Just like Taylor. It’s very annoying-.- end it seems like it’s very difficult to be Taylor Swift, not being able to go anywhere without being bombarded by hundreds if not thousands of people… Why would you try to get that for yourself. If Taylor could wipe away the make up and pull all of her hair back and look completely different and go out and not be recognized. I’m sure she would and she doesn’t have that luxury that Ashley does because Ashley doesn’t actually look like Taylor, so if she doesn’t put on the make up she can be a normal girl still sorry for any typos or poor punctuation. I am using talk to text.

[@Hellokarlaxx]

But when you look at her face she looks NOTHING like Taylor. Maybe if you’re really far away you can see a resemblance but up close nahhh she’s not it. Her face is bigger, her physique is different than Taylor

[@kimialexainfinity]

The way she is totally cosplaying taylor

[@mandalee8148]

I think she is fighting back in an unconscious way or a subconscious way for her identity. I think it started out with getting compliments about her similar appearance and spiraled into this mess. Suddenly she felt visible and it felt good so f it why not just become her. There’s also a smidge of resentment for the celebrity that is visible to me through a very obscure lens. It has to do with the distortion of sentiment surrounding “wow somebody else could live my life better than me “ ….

[@angelicachung2828]

Last name is Leechin… how ironic 😂😅

[@sghuntress.mp4]

we truly are living in a lifetime today. maybe the latest season of black mirror was so futuristic and realistic that they're making us live out these episodes for the full experience

[@juns597]

She's a mom. She should be putting them first instead of impersonating Taylor Swift and trying to get away with it. Doesn't she worry about hiw that'll affect the real Taylor Swift? Narcissistic for sure and again the children are the biggest victims.

[@a.evelyn5498]

She only looks like her from certain angles. That’s not the issue. The issue is that she has seemed to made this her entire personality & life, & she desperately wants people to believe that she looks just like her, as I think she’s convinced herself of that. Something tells me she’s not mentally well… it seems that she’s even changed her voice & mannerisms to be like TS, & she got the same cat so this is obviously not merely something for the internet but deeply bound to herself as a person, or the lack of a person as she’s melded himself to BE Taylor.

[@brianmidkiff5408]

Her last name was the word “leech” in it. That’s the only ‘coincidence’ I see

[@Docaratrik]

It's okay to adapt a artist's style if you're a fan, totally understandable but playing with other people's emotions just because you slightly resemble the artist. Totally unacceptable

[@honeybeehaley]

I remember her SCREAMING at chat on her live that she wasn’t Taylor and it pisses her off that people say that when the title of the video was like “Hi I’m Taylor Swift” or something like that and she was wearing the red lipstick/Taylor makeup combo 💀

[@JamesLawner]

I wouldn’t be surprised if she starts an OF, I mean that one Ariana Grande impersonator did the same thing! 😵

[@ghostlygena]

I just hope none of this is affecting her children

[@marianac5609]

i feel like deep inside she wants to be like taylor swift so bad because she probably doesnt love herself like she should so she uses her looks like taylor as an advantage
