    Taylor Swift 's first major purchase after signing her record deal was inspired by a famous movie character, according to a new documentary .

    The two-part documentary titled Taylor Swift vs Scooter Braun: Bad Blood premiered on Friday. The first part delves into Taylor's perspective of the feud over her music masters, while the second part presents Scooter Braun's side.

    Taylor's rise to fame began when she signed with Big Machine as a teenager in the early 2000s. She agreed to a six-album deal that did not grant her ownership of her masters, a common practice at the time.

    In the second episode, journalist and author Zing Tsjeng revealed what Taylor did with her first paycheck from Big Machine. "Famously she used her first paycheck to buy a Lexus convertible as a kind of snub to the popular girls," she said, reports the Mirror .

    Taylor reportedly had a specific reason for buying the luxury vehicle. "She's talked about this as being a real kind of F.U. moment in her career where she kind of says, 'You know, you girls were busy not inviting me to things, going to parties while I've just used my first paycheck to buy the car that Regina George drives in Mean Girls,'" Zing explained.

    Rachel McAdams' character, Regina George, is widely recognized as the quintessential 'mean girl,' both in the film and in popular culture. Zing used this reference to highlight Taylor's tendency to remember those who have wronged her, such as Scooter Braun purchasing her masters.

    Zing commented, "It kind of really shows you what she was about from a very young age. She's really hardworking, she's super talented, but she likes to kind of keep score. She's not above holding a grudge and she likes to get one over other people,".

    Taylor responded to the series with a statement: "Taylor has completely moved on from this saga and has turned what started out as an extreme situation into one of the most fulfilling creative endeavors of her life. None of these men will ever be able to take away from Taylor's legacy as a songwriter, singer, director, philanthropist, and advocate for artists' rights."
