Clara Bow’s Family Calls Taylor Swift Song a ‘Testament’ to Actress’ ‘Legacy’


On Friday, the great-grandchildren of 'It' girl Clara Bow shared their excitement after Taylor Swift named Track 16 after the late actress.

The great-grandchildren of Clara Bow are feeling the love after Taylor Swift named a song after the iconic 1920s actress on The Tortured Poets Department. Bell shared that she loved Swift’s lyric “This town is fake, but you’re the real thing” and how it referred to how “Bow was unapologetically herself despite the media noise in Hollywood and societal norms of the 1920s and 1930s.” A review by Rolling Stone ‘s Rob Sheffield described the LP as her “most personal album yet,” lauding it for combining “the intimacy of Folklore and Evermore with the synth-pop gloss of Midnights to create music that’s wildly ambitious and gloriously chaotic.”
