St. Vincent has told the story about how she turned to Taylor Swift to help her learn to cook, and it was an absolute disaster.
Speaking on Jessie Ware's Table Manners podcast, St. Vincent says that Taylor wanted to teach her to cook a quality meal, but it didn't exactly go to plan.
She says, “Here’s a story: so around, I think it was probably 2015, Taylor Swift – who you might know – invited me over to teach me how to cook a steak, asparagus and cauliflower. Something like that.
“And it’s very sweet of her to have done that and I don’t remember exactly why… I don’t remember if she experienced that I couldn’t cook and thought: ‘I’m going to help this girl. I’m not really sure how it came about, but she brought me home and she taught me how to do the thing.”
While Taylor tried her best, St. Vincent later attempted to cook the meal for her friends, and it didn't quite work. She recalled, “So flashforward, a couple months later, I’m at my Laurel Canyons studio and I’m like: ‘You know what, I’m going to have a couple of friends over, make this meal that Taylor showed me how to make.’
"And my friends still mock me for it, to this day. I hear of them basically being ‘raw, crusty cauliflower’ and ‘hockey puck steaks’. And these are people who one, they’re in the hospitality industry, they know how to cook. They know how to eat.
"You know, just people who know how to [be] like ‘here, come over’ and there’s candles lit and there’s all the things that make an experience wonderful… I didn’t do any of that shit and I made them terrible food. They still mock me for it to this day.”

Thankfully, St. Vincent's talents lie elsewhere, as showcased by her new album, Daddy's Home. Nevertheless, if you ever happen to be at her house, it's probably best to get takeaway - it's better for everyone involved.
