There are also some very relatable moments in the Netflix documentary, including a harsh criticism of herself while she and Brendon Urie filmed the music video for ‘Me!’.

After the first take of one scene, Taylor watched the clip back with the director and accused herself of having “a mean face sometimes”.

She said: “I need to work on my face. I look like I have a mean face sometimes, when I’m not trying to, do you know what I mean?

“I have a really slappable face, you just want to be like ‘what are you plotting?’ ‘What’s she planning?’ I’m not meaning to look like that.”

Shocked at her comments, director Dave Meyers interjected: “Slappable? Ouch!” before adding: “You’re confident and strong, it’s the correct one.”

But Taylor insisted: “I’m gonna try and be more likeable in the next one.”

Fans were shocked to see Taylor call her own face “slappable”, with many upset to see the star speak about herself in such a way, while others said they related.

Miss Americana had Swifties falling even more in love with the superstar as they saw a more emotional and raw side to her.

As well as a behind-the-scenes look at her songwriting, we also saw her share her battle with the shocking opinions she once had of her body.

Fans also learned how her feud with Kanye West really took its toll on her mental health, and how she had to re-invent herself multiple times to get where she is today.
