6. Mac has been listening to Taylor Swift since he was 15 years old.
In an interview with The Guardian, Taylor’s song Fifteen helped them deal with their own personal heartbreak at that time. “I suppose I related to that song so much. So that’s why I continued to listen to her,” says Mac.
Since then, they’ve been “memorizing all her mannerisms – her moves, her songs and choreography.” True enough, Mac’s obsession paid off and Sheesh is by far the most recognized Taylor Swift drag impersonator on the planet.
