Taylor Swift performing "How You Get the Girl" on the 1989 World Tour in 2015.

• ... that the choreography of this Taylor Swift song, performed during the 1989 World Tour resembles that from the 1952 musical Singin' in the Rain?

personally, i feel that the original hook is suitable (because of the image) also bc i have less than 5 dyk noms, qpq doesn't really apply to me (yet) brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 10:41, 24 September 2024 (UTC)

If that's the case, then you should probably remove the second hook. Wolverine XI ^{(talk to me)} 10:46, 24 September 2024 (UTC)

@Brachy0008 and Wolverine XI:, I can't find where the sources verify that the choreography was inspired by Singin' in the Rain—while the Independent says "there is a mass “Singing in the Rain”-style choreographed dance sequence to “How to Get the Girl”", which isn't quite the same thing. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 21:39, 20 October 2024 (UTC)

tweaked. @AirshipJungleman29: brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 00:45, 21 October 2024 (UTC)

I don't think "styled from" makes sense. The best you can do at present is something like "that one reviewer said the choreography is like Singin' in the Rain". You don't have a quote from anyone who actually knows about what the inspirations were. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 00:54, 21 October 2024 (UTC)

tweaked again. how does it look? @AirshipJungleman29: brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 00:56, 21 October 2024 (UTC)
