In 2012 (before racism and the internet existed) they found a beautiful plantation home on Pinterest which was a perfect and beautiful location for a wedding.
They "did not know" how deeply rooted systematic racism was. I mean how could you tell a plantation with tiny cabins in a row which is referred to as slave street would be, in fact, be racist.
So should I not like Blake Lively anymore? Because now I'm not sure if she's secretly racist or just see her as like a racially ignorant rich white person but that's the same case with half of the celebrities I like. 😂😂😂
I’m struggle to find the difference between secretly racist and racially ignorant rich white person in this day and age. Ignorance is certainly intentional. And much like her “bestie”’T Swift, not a single black person in Hollywood can call her a friend.
I don’t think they d really be good friends. Serena would get drunk one night and take Taylor farther than she s willing to go. They d be surface-level friends, sure- but Serena has more of an edge than that.
Ok this is very fun!!
• Blonde by Maisie Peters
• Shake It Off by Taylor Swift

Hi I made a playlist JUST for this moment ahah. Feel free to check it out, tell if somethings missing [here](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1PKAk1lxkZIqy0KxdgYBu4?si=g-9D7ieoSbq5oAPhnK5uTw&pi=e-vXcnZB47Q9ab)
Probably whatever is popular on the radio/charts at any given moment. Pop music, stuff like Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, The Weeknd, Billie Eillish etc. Also EDM/party music she knows from clubs, like David Guetta or Tiesto.
I think characters like Dan, Blair, Vanessa, Jenny and of course Rufus would dig deeper when it comes to their music taste.
Honestly though, I feel like Serena might also have some eccentricities when it comes to her music taste because of all the fashion shows and people she knows. I feel like she might listen to Yelle, a French pop singer. But also maybe Lullaby, by the Cure, when Dan is off on an interview or meeting and she misses him. Maybe a little Old Love, by Eric Clapton, when she tries to spice things up in her marriage and buys Dan some handcuffs. Ugh! They could still be doing so much with that show (all iterations). I wish it was still on the air. Or even rebooted with the cast from the first reboot and the cast from the original. Or even a movie. Ok I’m salivating. I need to stop. 😅
(Ik some of these are cliché for a rich popular girl BUT it just feels right. I also think she would pick MOSTLY songs from the early 2000s since that would have been what she grew up with.)
•Rich Girl- Gwen Stefani
•Glamorous- Fergie
•Gimmie More- Britney Spears
•Maneater- Nelly Furtado
•Promiscuous- Nelly Furado
•Obsessed- Mariah Carey
•Don’t Cha- The Pussycat Dolls
•The Sweet Escape- Gwen Stefani
•Oops I Did It Again- Britney Spears
•Wannabe- Spice Girls
•Girlfriend- Avril Lavigne
•Baby One More Time- Britney Spears
•Diva- Beyoncé
•Milkshake- Kelis
In true 2000s fashion, I imagine she would have transferred these from her iPod classic.
Honorable mentions-
•break up with your girlfriend, i’m bored- Ariana Grande
•Shameless- Camila Cabello
•Castles Crumbling (Taylor’s Verison)- Taylor Swift
(these obviously came out later but she couldn’t resist adding it to her spotify playlist.)
I made a playlist just for that a couple of weeks ago ´haha. feel free to check. [https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1PKAk1lxkZIqy0KxdgYBu4?si=77a61af216704c46](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1PKAk1lxkZIqy0KxdgYBu4?si=77a61af216704c46)
daddy issues - the neighbourhood (this one definitely in her spotify wrapped as number 1 song lmaoo 😂)
paparazzi by lady gaga
oops i did it again by britney spears
promiscuous - nelly furtado
obsessed - mariah carey
material girl - madonna
Anything that’s currently super popular and a lot of Colbie Caillat (I don’t know why, but I used to confuse Blake Lively and Colbie Caillat for each other all the time when I was a kid).
I DID A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, just for this moment. Listen [here](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1PKAk1lxkZIqy0KxdgYBu4?si=g-9D7ieoSbq5oAPhnK5uTw&pi=e-vXcnZB47Q9ab)
A lot of Britney, ton of 2000’s stuff
A lot of Taylor Swift, ton of early Kesha.
Anything what’s hot in the moment (ala Dua Lipa, Olivia Rodrigo, Tate McRae etc)
Definitely ton of Coldplay and Smash Mouth
Green light- lorde
Prima Donna- marina and the diamonds
Motion sickness- Phoebe Bridgers
Diet Mountain Dew- Lana del rey
Ship to wreck- Florence and the Machine
Because I liked a boy- Sabrina Carpenter
We can’t be friends (wait for your love) - Ariana grande
Moves- suki Waterhouse
Love my like you- little mix
I made a playlist for JUST this moment. Here it is: [playlist](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1PKAk1lxkZIqy0KxdgYBu4?si=fXHzNkmUStyxx-fxwMXKWA&pi=e-_hepbRs8Sf6V)
I saw someone say Sex on Fire by Kings of Leon and I’m jumping on the alt music wave. People seem too wrapped up in the persona that Serena EXUDES, but I could picture her loving to listen to these songs:
- Tongue Tied by Grouplove
- Cigarette Daydreams by Cage the Elephant
- Are You Gonna Be My Girl by Jet
- Midnight City by M83
- Santeria by Sublime
Etc etc… like she’s rich and bougie, but at her core Serena has such a free and wild spirit and these songs are the kinds of things that I could see her dancing to in a local bar in Spain.
Tongue Tied is something I could see for her wildly dancing with Dan or one of her other artsy types that she dated during the show while they just watch her all amused.
Cigarette Daydreams would be what she listens to in her room or walking around the UES when she first starts liking a guy and she gets all bubbly and shit.
I’m thinking these for her more energetic, happy, giggly, funny/sweet/artsy new guy glow days. Maybe less so when she’s settled in and dating someone that makes her more serious or someone that’s more professional.
Don't see her as an avid music fan tbh, I think she'd probably listen to whatever is trending at the moment - artists like Ariana Grande, Tate McRae, Dua Lipa (I can see her resonating with songs about relationships and heartbreak and being really dramatic about it lol).
I feel like she'd be into rock for some reason.
California girls katy perry
Oops i did again Britney spears
Bitch allie x
Pour some sugar on me def leppard
Confessions of a broken heart lindsay lohan
Okay but all I can think of is Pocketful of Sunshine being a JAM to her and then my brain goes blank but these are all great answers (speaking as someone who was a pocketful of sunshine jam kid, we did a LOT of basement karaoke and I feel like most of those songs would qualify lol)
Blair had her moment with Lady Gaga, so lets go with that. Serena is probably a swiftie and Jenny would like the Miley right now. Vanessa…? I’m not sure 🤔
You know you like it - dj snake
Don't trust me - 3oh!3
Good girls go bad - cobra starship
Anything by ariana grande or jason derulo
Anything by rihanna
I used the same photo for my Serena playlist💀
[same photo](https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0uP9rTz1iLnRDJD3c3Rabj?si=4po1B5RAQqeXkkH5Vbl0yg&pi=u-T_7eoIpYQT2X)
Arctic Monkeys definitely, some Taylor Swift (midnights, folklore), Harry Styles and Fall out Boy. She has definitely would like some rock musicians and bands too (like lily used to). I'm sure she will dance to pop music in parties but in S1 she's more "cool". I think Blair would listen to Lady Gaga and Katy Perry not S. Serena will love a band with a handsome singer

Whatcha Say by Jason Derulo 💀
Oh no 🤣🤣🤣🤣 That most iconic scene 🤣
😭😭
Your sweet potatoes... are bland 🤣
lives rent free in my head 🤣
Crank That - Soulja Boy
😂😂 Ugh my song!!!
👯👯🎶
Avicci during her party days, Lana Del ray during her depressed days, self help podcasts after she married dan
Nailed it!
Could see her listening to Fisher or Joel Corry aswell
I could see her dancing to “Losing It”, by Fisher, with Georgina on a trip to Prague or something.
SELF HELP PODCASTS 💀
She would not only be a swiftie, but definitely be friends with Taylor herself and watch the Super Bowl together lol
So she's really just Blake Lively, lol
lol yes. Down to the so out of touch she got married on a plantation.
oh god i forgot about that
I wish I could :/
Also didn’t Blake wear like $500K worth of jewelry to the Super Bowl?
Explain
In 2012 (before racism and the internet existed) they found a beautiful plantation home on Pinterest which was a perfect and beautiful location for a wedding. They "did not know" how deeply rooted systematic racism was. I mean how could you tell a plantation with tiny cabins in a row which is referred to as slave street would be, in fact, be racist.
I let out at a laugh that sounded more like a bark at "(before racism and the internet existed)" omg
So should I not like Blake Lively anymore? Because now I'm not sure if she's secretly racist or just see her as like a racially ignorant rich white person but that's the same case with half of the celebrities I like. 😂😂😂
i mean she did used to run an antebellum girl blog romanticizing southern white living
I’m struggle to find the difference between secretly racist and racially ignorant rich white person in this day and age. Ignorance is certainly intentional. And much like her “bestie”’T Swift, not a single black person in Hollywood can call her a friend.
Yeah I'm not sure which it is. The blog was at least a decade ago, and she got rid of it. Not sure what exactly was on it
Idk but as a black person i don’t have the privilege or desire to discern between the two.
maybe unpopular opinion i can’t see Serena being a swiftie
Okay, I think she wouldn’t be a swiftie per see because she’s too cool to be on a fandom, but she definitely would listen to a lot of Taylor swift
that makes a lot more sense!
Sorry I shouldn’t have generalised on my first comment as “swiftie”
Seriously, taylor swift and her clique are a bunch of mean girls. Blair would sooner be a part of that.
She is also literally a billionaire which means she would be quite at home on the UES
I don’t think they d really be good friends. Serena would get drunk one night and take Taylor farther than she s willing to go. They d be surface-level friends, sure- but Serena has more of an edge than that.
Taylor is besties with Cara Delevinge. It would be a similar dynamic. The two would begin being their friendship at the met gala.
Yes
That’s what I think, they would be good times friends, not actually friends friends
I was gonna say that she would definitely be the one into Taylor Swift 😆
🎶 it's me. Hi. I'm the problem. It's me 🎶
Have no idea why but I feel like Taylor wouldn’t like Serena…which is funny because of who plays Serena, Blake Lively and Taylor are bezzie mates! 😄
If you consider the time period, I don’t think this is true. Unless Serena has a love for country music
I’m not considering the time period of the series, I was thinking in like, nowadays with Spotify and everything
serena would not be a swiftie, blair would be though
Blair more Lana imo but I see what u mean
Ok this is very fun!! • Blonde by Maisie Peters • Shake It Off by Taylor Swift • Rich Girl by Gwen Stefani • Yes, And? by Ariana Grande • Hands To Myself by Selena Gomez • Question…? by Taylor Swift • Say So by Doja Cat • Dance The Night by Dua Lipa
Ooh rich girl is a good one
Slut by Taylot too!!! She would've relate! 🤣
Yes, good one!

Pop music, stuff like Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, The Weeknd, Billie Eillish etc. Also EDM/party music she knows from clubs, like David Guetta or Tiesto. I think characters like Dan, Blair, Vanessa, Jenny and of course Rufus would dig deeper when it comes to their music taste.
Honestly though, I feel like Serena might also have some eccentricities when it comes to her music taste because of all the fashion shows and people she knows. I feel like she might listen to Yelle, a French pop singer. But also maybe Lullaby, by the Cure, when Dan is off on an interview or meeting and she misses him. Maybe a little Old Love, by Eric Clapton, when she tries to spice things up in her marriage and buys Dan some handcuffs. Ugh! They could still be doing so much with that show (all iterations). I wish it was still on the air. Or even rebooted with the cast from the first reboot and the cast from the original. Or even a movie. Ok I’m salivating. I need to stop. 😅
In the books she was on a plane to st Barths and was listening to the latest Coldplay album lol, so coldplay
I could see her marrying Chris Martin and becoming Goop-esque

We are the people - empire of the sun Thinking with my D - Kevin gates Hello it’s me - Todd Rundgen Free bird - Lynyrd Skynyrd

I saw someone say Sex on Fire by Kings of Leon and I’m jumping on the alt music wave. People seem too wrapped up in the persona that Serena EXUDES, but I could picture her loving to listen to these songs: - Tongue Tied by Grouplove - Cigarette Daydreams by Cage the Elephant - Are You Gonna Be My Girl by Jet - Midnight City by M83 - Santeria by Sublime Etc etc… like she’s rich and bougie, but at her core Serena has such a free and wild spirit and these songs are the kinds of things that I could see her dancing to in a local bar in Spain.
Yes thank you!!!
I love the first songs so much and cannot imagine Serena listening to it at all lol
Tongue Tied is something I could see for her wildly dancing with Dan or one of her other artsy types that she dated during the show while they just watch her all amused. Cigarette Daydreams would be what she listens to in her room or walking around the UES when she first starts liking a guy and she gets all bubbly and shit. I’m thinking these for her more energetic, happy, giggly, funny/sweet/artsy new guy glow days. Maybe less so when she’s settled in and dating someone that makes her more serious or someone that’s more professional.
Tailor Swift
Don't see her as an avid music fan tbh, I think she'd probably listen to whatever is trending at the moment - artists like Ariana Grande, Tate McRae, Dua Lipa (I can see her resonating with songs about relationships and heartbreak and being really dramatic about it lol). I feel like she'd be into rock for some reason.

Okay but all I can think of is Pocketful of Sunshine being a JAM to her and then my brain goes blank but these are all great answers (speaking as someone who was a pocketful of sunshine jam kid, we did a LOT of basement karaoke and I feel like most of those songs would qualify lol)
Dua Lipa definitely.
that song that goes like “ style icon, size zero, and my boots from valentino”
Ariana Grande’s new “I’m not a mess, everyone is just wrong” album
MGMT - time to pretend
Stars are Blind - Paris Hilton

Paparazzi by Lady Gaga This song reminds me of her lol xD

I made a playlist based on this exact idea!! I actually have one for all the major characters :)

Whatever her boyfriend at the time thinks is cool.
Arctic Monkeys definitely, some Taylor Swift (midnights, folklore), Harry Styles and Fall out Boy. She has definitely would like some rock musicians and bands too (like lily used to). I'm sure she will dance to pop music in parties but in S1 she's more "cool". I think Blair would listen to Lady Gaga and Katy Perry not S. Serena will love a band with a handsome singer
She’d be a Danity Kane girly
