Australia's Taylor Swift mural gets some unexpected updates
In case you missed it, a mural resurrected in loving memory of Taylor "Smith" (1989-2016, as the illustration depicts) popped up this week. There is no doubt it's pointed at Taylor Swift.
It was painted after video of a recorded conversation between Taylor Swift and Kanye West was released on Snapchat Sunday and the internet lost its collective mind over the ordeal.
The mural has gone through a hilarious transformation since it was originally painted on a wall in Melbourne. Someone gave Swift a facelift and replaced her with a Spongebob gorilla meme and tribute to Harambe, the gorilla who was killed in the Cincinnati Zoo in May after a child fell into the pen.

The original was created by artist lushsux who encouraged people to pay respects by leaving candles and flowers.
The mural eventually got another facelift, with anonymous folks transforming it into a depiction of Kanye West with Swift's blonde hair—but left up the Harambe name, adding "savage" to the title.

We worry what this will mean for the memory of poor Taylor Smith.
