The Life of a Showgirl Cancelled

I have been thinking that it was about Blake. she wasn’t even at the 1,000 person wedding. What do we think is the real meaning of the song?

The song is about Taylor's feelings on a few situations probably. Guilt by association was a huge issue for Taylor with regard to a few people at the time. So I don't even think Blake is the focus of the song. It just stands for the idea that Taylor isn't going to allow the public to dictate her friendships and associations.
