73 questions Taylor Swif

As is now tradition for the magazine's cover girls, Taylor Swift gamely partook in the "73 Questions"
video interview a series of mostly inane questions about life, love, lawyers, and hummus in
footage accompanying her new Vogue cover. Except wait, there aren't actually 73 questions in the
video!! Thanks to a lot of math happening in the Cosmopolitan.com office this afternoon, we've
verified that there are actually only 70 questions asked/answered. This is an outrage.
