Looking at his project choices, I definitely think he does what he wants without regard to fan opinion. If he was concerned about what fans wanted he’d be doing franchises or blockbusters.

That photo bomb. haha

I don't think he comes here at all. It's not easy to find and there are literally like 4 or 5 people that post. I do think he probably checks some of the social media accounts.

And I agree. I don't think he chooses roles that will make him famous. I honestly don't think he cares about that.

I think the far more likely candidate to come here would be studios or a film company to get the dirt. No better place to go and see what kind of gossip/bull **** surrounds someone, go to the fan accounts. I don't think that happens now, but back when Disney was ready to put a franchise on his back I'm sure it's something they looked into.

I don't know how easy or not easy it is to find this place, it's always been on my radar since before this board existed, back when it was just an FNL board.

I didn't even notice the chick photo bombing, she looks like she's hating life that that little girl got a picture.

I’m sure someone knows. Probably Buddy.

Photobomber is hilarious!

[worthyoflove]

I just don't see him googling himself often. I could see people associated with him more interested than he is.

Another older fan encounter during the beanie days.

The photobomb is kind of Children of the Cornish.

[worthyoflove]

I've never actually seen Children of the Corn.

I guess Taylor isn't as well known in France as he is in Spain and Italy.

This girl tweeted about seeing Taylor outside her work in Austin not that long ago and now it seems she's implying that she saw him again today. So maybe he is home?

I wasn't suggesting he comes here regularly or that he makes career decisions based on what he'd read here. I'm not that delusional. He's gotta be at least aware of the board, and might've come here once after someone gave him the link. To be frank, it's not like he has thousands of fan accounts and pages. Meanwhile, the studios' marketing teams track every little thing in the runup to a premiere. So it makes sense that if, for example, Paramount invested so much money in promoting Waco using his name and likeness, it would want to gauge reaction to that marketing campaign and then fans' reaction when it premiered. Granted, I've never worked in the actual marketing/PR business so if I'm wrong, I'm wrong.

I decided to post this here. When I first saw this ad, I thought her jacket was the same as Taylor's old one! Haha.

I like the beanie days.

[worthyoflove]

So he is at the contenders event in LA right now, with a fan today in LA. Thanks to RoryBear for tracking this one down.

And with a fan at last nights Kings game.

sarahdanThe sting of last nights loss hurt a little less after I got to tell my BIGGEST celebrity crush how much I love him. I’m pretty sure the feeling was mutual. #cutecouplealert

[elherts]

Does anyone else think this photobomb is really distracting???
