Taylor Swift is close to perfect in just about every way.

She’s the biggest star in music right now; she looks effortlessly stylish just about every time she leaves the house; and she’s been known to engage in random acts of kindness like donating $50,000 to New York City schools.

But even Taylor suffers the occasional awkward moment, such as when she randomly busted out her best moonwalk to try and avoid some paparazzi who were chilling outside of some garage:

The video’s not enough to make us believe Taylor’s claim that no one wants to date her, but it is a pleasant reminder that she’s just like the rest of us…only wealthier, more talented, and better-looking. 

This clip raises so many questions, it’s hard to know where to begin. It’s basically the Zapruder film of random pop star behavior.

Why didn’t Taylor just run to the car instead of walking backwards? Did she really think the paps wouldn’t take photos of the back of her head? Who’s that random guiding her in like she’s a 747? And why the hell didn’t she just have someone back the car into the garage?!

Sigh. So many questions that will probably never be answered. All we know for sure is that this is the most awkward Taylor moment since she danced with Jimmy Fallon on the Tonight Show.

Come to think of it, every time Taylor dances in public, it’s a pretty cringe-worthy affair. Dammit, she even does awkward better than us.
