Taylor Swift “manipulated her way into the Kennedys,” sources say

On to the continuing adventures of Swifty & Jailbait Kennedy. Yesterday, we discussed whether or not Swifty moved in for the kill (“the kill” being “putting a 17-year-old’s hand on her boob”) on Conor Kennedy when he was only 17 years old. Considering Swifty has been circling the Kennedy family like a hawk looking for dong-shaped prey for months, I have no problems believing that Swifty was simply looking for the first somewhat eligible Kennedy boy to pounce on. Still, Swifty wants us to believe that she’s not doing anything but falling in love with a lovely boy who has swept her off her feet. Yes, a boy barely out of high school (I think he was still IN high school when they first began dating) swept a musical superstar off her feet. But there’s danger! Danger because Swifty could get her little heart broken:

With Patrick Schwarzenegger declared off limits, Taylor Swift has moved on to his 18-year-old cousin Conor Kennedy – but pals are warning Taylor that she’ll wind up singing the blues!

“Everyone has been reminding Taylor that Kennedy men are notorious womanizers,” said a source close to the 22-year-old. “There’s a long history in that family of cheating, and she should just run for the hills! But Taylor just laughs it off, at one point saying, ‘Don’t be silly, Conor has a heart of gold.’”

“Taylor and Conor have taken over the Kennedy compound,” revealed the source. “If they aren’t sailing or tossing around a football on the lawn, they’re strolling the grounds hand-in-ahnd or smooching under a tree.”

Now Taylor is looking to buy a nearby $4.9 mansion. Said the source: “She and Conor remind people of a young John and Jackie Kennedy – they’re the talk of the town!”

[From The Enquirer, print edition]

Oh. My. GOD. “She and Conor remind people of a young John and Jackie Kennedy – they’re the talk of the town!” SHUT THE FRONT DOOR. In NO world would an 18-year-old boy (!!) and Taylor Swift remind anyone of Jack Kennedy and Jackie. NO WAY. As for the whole “Swifty is forever a victim, she’s the one who needs to protect herself” storyline. I’ve known for a while that Swifty is the new Jennifer Aniston. Y’all need to believe me.

At least In Touch Weekly is fighting the good fight with a storyline that sounds slightly more reasonable – their Swifty story this week boils down to “The Kennedys aren’t so sure about this shifty Swifty person.” According to In Touch’s sources, “There has been a lot of talk in the Kennedy family about Taylor, and people are not happy.” There’s a rift between Swifty-supporters like Ethel Kennedy and “a small group of family members” who think that Swifty “manipulated her way into the Kennedys.”

Another part of the concern, according to In Touch (and me): Conor’s mom just passed away and Conor “is especially vulnerable.” A source says: “It should be a time for the family to get together and heal… Taylor is using Conor to get an in with his family… they feel that if he falls for her, she may break his heart.”

Which leads me to finally (!!) give you my theory on how this Conor-Swifty relationship will end:

Conor: “I don’t know, I’ve never really understood why people like ponies.”
Swifty: “OMG I HATE YOU.”

No, in all honesty he’ll probably dump her. Over the phone. Because that’s just what happens to her. And then she’ll devote a whole album to it. The album will be called… Forgetting Camelot. Or Lost Camelot. Or Bubblegum Camelot Dreams. Songs will include: “It Felt Like Dallas When You Dumped Me” and “I’m Your Marilyn”.

    I hope she knows what she’s doing…this kid is going to be massively screwed up by the horrifying scenes he watched play out between mom and dad over the years.

  2. Eve says:

    I know people think Swift is sweet and harmless…but I can’t shake the feeling that she may be a manipulative bitch after all.

    • marie says:

      I completely agree, she has an agenda

      • Jilli says:

        So there is no way this is just two young people who like one another? I don’t see why not. They are only human, afterall. We have all made mistakes (multiple).

      • Lucy says:

        Out of interest, what would her agenda actually be?
        What would she get from “manipulating” herself into their family?
        She’s a rich successful singer, it’s not like she’s after fame or money.
        So I don’t see a possible agenda.

    • momoftwo says:

      Yes! Something about her makes me think of boiled bunny rabbits (too much????)…

    • Hanna says:

      Yup, something tells me she is!

    • some bitch says:

      This exactly. The sweet and innocent look might sell records, but if girlfriend goes through THAT many relationships something’s probably off.

    • Sarah K says:

      I have ALWAYS felt this way about her. And I don’t even think she MAY be manipulative, I think she has been manipulative all the way!

    • Green_Eyes says:

      Totally on board w/ your belief. She’s a bit creepy..

    • the original bellaluna says:

      Yup. Now watch her get pregnant and then try to claim she didn’t know how babies were made, and/or Conor “took advantage” of her. 😛

      She makes me feel slappy. I just sincerely want to slap the small amount of taste she has right out of her mouth.

    • thebutlerdidit says:

      She’s not little Miss Goody Girl, and neither is Gomez. Everyone dogs Cyrus and Vanessa Hudgens as being those “Wild Disney Girls,” but the truth is, they’ve just been the least phony ones, not trying to fake an image with the press. Swift has gone from dating Joe Jonas to Taylor Lautner, age reasonable range, to jumping on STD’s favorite Valentine, John “David Duke Dick” Mayer, late 30s, and Jake “persistent gay rumors” Gylennhal, also in 30’s, then to a kid that’s 17? Everybody does that when they are 22, and esp a multi-millionaire? Why do you think 20 yr old Gomez is w/ immature & douchey Biebs? Fame, fame, fame. And, if nothing better comes along, arranged money marriage. She and Taylor will go on Lisa Frank inspired ice cream dates and pretend to be pure vestal virgins, until then. Raccoon McSluttypants is more real.

      • Reece says:

        Swift isn’t a Disney girl though…she’s just burned through all the Disney guys. 😀 Wasn’t there a Glee guy in there somewhere too?

        I agree with everybody here. As someone said yesterday “Swifty is Shifty”

      • Molly says:

        She’s a young woman and she should be allowed to date boys without women crowing at her about what a “slut” she is. I don’t get the hate about her refusal to talk about her sex life or why everyone gets so pissed because apparently not talking about it and wearing a white dress and talking about her hopes for love means she’s faking being a virgin.

    • Eleonor says:

      You nailed it! Completely!

    • Jane says:

      What’s up with all these older Hollywood gals snatching these young teenagers for boyfriends? Is that all that is available? Like an 18 yr old is going to be the one. You got to be kidding me.

  3. brin says:

    “I left my heart in Hyannis” lol.

  4. Antidoll says:

    Hehe! this is funny and creepy, she just wants to be a kennedy so bad, poor swifty she thinks she’s gonna be the next jackie, poor poor little swifty, her next album will be called kennedy blues :B meh!

  5. Ravensdaughter says:

    Gee, ya think? And he recently (give or take) lost his mom-super manipulative on the part of Swifty.
    I like how she got waved off from Maria’s sons. I bet Maria is a fierce mom these days!
    Run Conor, run!

    • grace says:

      Maria didn’t warn Taylor off Patrick. In fact, Maria and Taylor were seen working out together at a gym in Hyannisport a couple of days ago.

      And there is nothing manipulative about dating a recently bereaved person. Good relationships are built on friendship and I’m sure he could use a good friend right now.

    • Jacq says:

      I thought I read somewhere early on that Taylor’s mom (parents?) are good friends with the Kennedy family. Who is to say that they couldn’t build a relationship based on her support of him during this time? And, if this has been going on as long as people are saying, wouldn’t that put them together before his mother’s passing?

      • Katija says:

        OK, any city girl snobbery is unintentional here… but aren’t they farm folk from rural Pennsylvania? How do they end up friends with the Kennedys?

      • grace says:

        Katija – Taylor’s family are pretty old money. They lived on a farm but it was a lifestyle choice. Her father bought it from a client. He’s a financial advisor at Merrill Lynch and comes from a long line of bigshot bankers. Pretty sure he’s Republican though. Taylor spent her summers on Cape May – sailing, horse riding etc.

      • Bodhi says:

        Her daddy’s money is why she hit it big. he poured a TON of cash into her career. Which is further proof that the entertainment industry is built on money, not talent

  6. ramona says:

    Whoever said that Taylor Swift reminded them of a young Jackie Kennedy is getting their mouth washed out with soap, by me.

    • Joe says:

      She is more beautiful than Jackie and also does a lot of charity work. I really do not see this comparison as farfetched.

      • ramona says:

        Jackie was a well-educated, brave woman who suffered great personal tragedy and was a symbol of American strength in times of adversity. After the death of her husband(s) she had an extremely successful career, donated generously to charity, and was a classy, private woman despite the media hounding her.

        Taylor Swift is a pop singer who sings cutesy songs for teenagers. Let’s not canonize her just yet.

      • anon33 says:

        WHOA-

        More beautiful than Jackie??? Sorry dude, but have you lost your GODDAMN mind???? Yes, she is pretty but she is NO Jackie Kennedy. SMDH

      • rumbleseat says:

        WHAAA?! You just said that squinty eyed buck teethed ratface was better looking than Jackie Kennedy? Oh. My. God. I don’t think Jackie needed to pay off the press to take flattering/airbrushed pictures of her. Taylor needs all the help she can get. Just track down an honest picture of her and you’ll see.

      • polk8dot says:

        It’s not fair to smoke such goooooood shit and not share, man. Whatever it is you’re inhaling, I want some, if it really makes you see Swifty as beautiful, I can just imagine what it could do for me….
        Seriously, she was always average at best, but at least her face used to have some definition. Lately, she looks like she put on 30 lb – all in her face. I’d accept it as ‘baby fat’, but she’s never had it before (her face was very bony and slim, and her fat body index must be hovering above zero), and also her body is still the skeletor, so no weight gain.
        I tremble to even say it, but can she have started jacking her face? Her lips seem much fuller now, and the ‘puffy bloatiness’ is truly distracting. I hope she’s not messing with injections yet, at her age, but then in HW that would not be anything unheard of. ugh, smfh…

  7. Joe says:

    Taylor Swift is awesome. i love that b7itch. lol She plays the celebrity game so well.

    Oh…Jailbait Kennedy? Giant facepalm. People are actually legal when they reach 16 in Mass. So technically she did nothing wrong.

    • Sophie says:

      I still don’t get why everyone says the “Kennedy men”. He’s still a boy, a boy whose just lost his mother. She may not have done anything wrong legally, but morally she’s f**ked.

  8. MorticiansDoItDeader says:

    Marrying into that family all but guarantees that you’ll suffer a tragic death. Who would willingly seek that out?

    • EmmaStoneWannabe says:

      Yeah! Esp if you’re already wealthy, famous and have everything going for you! SMDH

    • qtpi says:

      True – but they have also put themselves out there in unique situations that most people don’t seek out. Being President and running for President. Playing football while skiing. Flying your own small private airplane.

      If I married a Kennedy I would say we are going to live a much more scaled back life!

    • L says:

      And comments like this is what Swifty is banking on (I think she’s using the kid for her next album). And why I’m surprised the Kennedy clan is allowing him to date her.

      When they break up-all of her country fans will go on and on about the big evil Kennedy Family. I’d be willing to bet the house that it will be all over the conservative news as ‘that messed up family did it again’ (as country fans tend to be conservatives, but not always).

      She’s already got her built in “I was a heartbroken girl” alibi sewn up.

      • rumbleseat says:

        His Pops is also dating an actress, let’s not forget.

      • polk8dot says:

        Do we seriously need to bring the politics into this?
        We do not know her political stance, or her family’s. You SUSPECT they are conservative based on some outdated notions that may have nothing to do with reality.
        There is so much good stuff to talk about here, let’s leave politics to other sites. This is supposed to be a lighthearted buzz and gossip hangout, so let’s keep is so.

    • TheOriginalKitten says:

      “Marrying into that family all but guarantees that you’ll suffer a tragic death. Who would willingly seek that out?”

      ..and this is coming from a funeral director (so take this warning seriously, folks!)

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        @kitten, LOL. But seriously, I think they’ve been to as many funerals as I have ; P

    • Cazzee says:

      Taylor Swift should watch her back. There are a lot of possible scenarios involving the Kennedy men where she could end up dead.

      I’m from Massachusetts; people here make not-so-funny jokes about the Kennedy war on women. Sorry to be such a downer but dating a Kennedy man is a physically dangerous business.

      • Mitch Buchanan Rocks! says:

        Intriguing post and many stories over the years come to mind and this is just from being a long time tabloid reader (read the national enquirer constantly as a teen but got a D in history 12 – there were lots of stuff about the kennedy family) So many harsh goings on – for a long period of time, this is a majorly disfunctional family and has been for generations.

  9. Hautie says:

    “manipulated her way into the Kennedys…”
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    OMG. hahaha!

    Who in their right mind would willingly get near anyone from that f*cked up clan. It amazes me that anyone thinks marrying into that clan is a good idea.

    The men have horrible reputations. That they earned with great pride. They seem to only marry women who they sh*t on.

    There is nothing majestic about that dysfunctional clan. I have never seen one family that has had so much tragedy happen to them.

  10. Joe says:

    Can`t wait for her new song to destroy Itunes next week. 🙂

  11. Erinn says:

    It really skeeves me out that she’s suddenly dating a boy who’s mother just died. It’s weird. Who willingly jumps on that sort of situation that ISN’T preying even a tiny bit? It’s the fact that she was so enamored with this family too… it’s almost like she narrowed down the weakest link and jumped on in.

    It’s not the age difference alone that’s sketch- It’s a bit of a generalization but most boys that age aren’t exactly the most mature human beings, and supposedly girls mature faster- it’s the timing.

    Bad timing for someone who has idolized the Kennedy’s to suddenly be dating one.

    • qtpi says:

      I agree 100 percent. The recently deceased mother (by suicide!) is the most creepy part of this by FAR. My parents would be telling me to RUN for the hills if I were in her shoes.

      Perhaps she is just using him for publicity. She can’t really be thinking that she will have a normal long lasting adult relationship with a boy that just turned 18.

      • Erinn says:

        Part of me thinks that she is that delusional! This whole situation did nothing to shake her, I really see Taylor Swift as the person who tries to plan out their own perfect little fairy tales. I think she’s smarter than to FULLY believe in them, and really spins her image this way. But I think a lot of her thinks it’s perfectly normal to try and get the best love story possible, rather than going for what’s the healthiest options relationship wise.

      • some bitch says:

        You nailed it. My mother passed away two months ago (quite suddenly although she’d been quite sick) and I haven’t been interested in dating or seeing anybody. Basically you’re so dazed and stunned that you haven’t got the energy to work on a relationship, nor do you care much about dating.

        Swifty’s kinda shifty.

    • nina says:

      that boy looks dazed in every picture I’ve seen of him. Who the hell sees this poor kid who’s been through so much in just the past couple months, and is like, “yeah, that’s who I wanna date, even though he’s 4 years younger.”

      • Erinn says:

        God, the poor boy could be on some medication for the stress/anxiety related to his mothers death… it’s such a shame. The guy needs friends right now, not a relationship with Shifty.

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        The suicide wasn’t the only strange thing. Apparently they had her body exhumed and reinterred in a different cemetery because of a family rift. Way to further traumatize the kids.

      • Erinn says:

        @Mort
        Dear God, this family. That’s sad. I can’t imagine losing my mom to suicide, and THEN having her body exhumed and moved. I’d be completely broken down over that. No wonder the poor boy looks so dazed.

      • grace says:

        To the posters above: Her body was exhumed because the Kennedys acquired 8 new plots together. This means that some of her children and their families can be buried beside her, unlike at her initial resting spot. It makes me sick how vicious people are about this stuff; it’s such a tragic situation.

      • Erinn says:

        @Grace
        If your vicious comment was in regards to us, I don’t know where you’re getting that idea. We didn’t say anything cruel about the exhuming situation. You’re awful jumpy on this board, in a lot of threads, not sure why you feel so close to the situation.

        Even if it was exhumed for a good reason, it’d be hard to witness your mother getting dug up, and reburied.

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        @Grace, There was a rift. Her relatives didn’t even attend the funeral he arranged for her, due to the accussations Robert made against her (that she drank excessively, ran over the family dog on purpose and beat him). Instead, her family held their own memorial service. That statement you’re parroting is PR, designed to cover up the discord. As a funeral director, I can tell you that this situation is not typical. We discuss interment issues with the family prior to the service and, in a case like this, we would have a service/funeral mass, hold the body until the desired plot was available, and have a graveside service at the time of interment. Burial, exhumation and reinterment are discouraged in our industry as they’re somewhat taboo as they are expensive, traumatic for the living family members (as @Erinn points out) and usually done in instances of ongoing crime investigations. I believe the move was a bit of knife twisting by Robert.

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        I’m having trouble seeing anything even remotely “vicious” about the posts above. They all seemed pretty matter-of-fact to me.

      • the original bellaluna says:

        Mort – They also got in trouble (as much as a Kennedy can) for moving her body without the proper permits. I totally agree that it was done to add insult to injury.

        (Have you seen my mssgs on other posts?)

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        @bells, just goes to show what the kennedy name will get you. We aren’t allowed to inter anyone without the proper burial permit. Whoever let them slide on that one could have their license revoked. Also, I usually check back but I haven’t seen any responses. Have you figured out a way to exchange emails yet? I’m on Facebook. I could comment over there and you could message me.

        @kitten, thanks for having my back. Hope all of us east coasters can all meet up at some point in the future 🙂

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        @bells, as I said over at the LiLo thread. You can message me on Facebook (pax park). I also invite @chatcat, @originaltiff, @originalkitten, @skuddles and everyone else I regularly talk to here to do the same. Pax park is not my real name, so I feel comfortable posting that here (although some of you here already know my real name from the blog orderofthegooddeath). Messaging me would only give me access to your profile pics and those things you’ve made public to strangers viewing your profile (so I figure you may be comfortable with that). Either way, let me know. I won’t be upset of you aren’t comfortable with that 🙂

        Sorry for the thread jack everyone.

      • grace says:

        @Erinn – Sorry, I didn’t mean to sound jumpy! (And don’t post that often, so I’m surprised you’re aware of me). I love gossip but only with the facts. Mary’s kids wanted the body moved to somewhere with more space – it was obviously a sudden death so they didn’t think to arrange it before the funeral.

  12. DanaG says:

    I want her to get dumped just so we can get some of those songs. He is a kid and she has done grown men it can’t be great sex. Is it just me or does it seem like Taylor has been around for ages? She does seem very JA she can catch a guy but can’t keep him. Cause we all know JA is going to end up single again sooner or later and so will Taylor. Has she gone through all the guys in Hollywood?

    • bostonian says:

      I suspect that the sex is probably their most compatible area. Lets not forget what the Kennedy men were most “infamous” for. There is just no chance an 18 year old hot young Kennedy is a virgin… plus he’s young, athletic, and enthusiasm can make up for experience.

      And ya know, if john Mayer is your encounter with grown ass man sex, well, I picture him sweating profusely, whiskey coming out his pores, probably unable to stay hard due to all that overwhelming creative angst and cocaine. And I bet he cries after, from self loathing of course.

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        @boston, haha. Your description of sex with John Mayer painted a visually disturbing picture. Almost as if you have some experience with him ; P

  13. EmmaStoneWannabe says:

    Poor Swifty…she is like the next Jen Aniston/Jessica Biel/JLH…poor girl will be 40, still trying to figure men and relationships out all while continuing to write Romeo and Juliet lyrics about it. Hope she doesnt continue to have her heart broken for decades to come, that is just so hard to watch.

    • Joe says:

      Did you know that Emma Stone is one of Swifty`s best friends? She just talked to MTV how much she loves Taylor and her “sick sense of humor”.

  14. DANDILION says:

    She ‘thinks’ she did.. they always welcome new blood monies…

  15. lucy2 says:

    I usually don’t mind her, but there’s a lot of sketchiness here – his age, his mother just died, her obsession with the family, etc. It all just seems icky.
    She’s in her 20s now, right? Time to stop with the high school boys.

  16. mar says:

    The Kennedy men treat their women so well. I can see why you would want to claw your way to get to one. Eye roll.

    • ZenB!tch says:

      IKR why would anyone in their right mind want a Kennedy. Look at what happened to that boy’s mother.

      Oh yeah I said “right mind”. Silly me. She dated that horrid John Mayer. She’s the next Rihanna.

  17. ladybert62 says:

    Your post was hysterical – I especially loved the song titles of her “dumped by a kennedy” album! VERY FUNNY!!

  18. megs283 says:

    Hmm. My parents live down the street from the compound – and I can assure you that the piddling romance of Swift + and a young buck is NOT the talk of the town.

    (The deals at the Christmas Tree Shop? Now THAT’S exciting!)

  19. grace says:

    The site’s tagline is “Escapism can be smart”. And yet this article involves analyzing National Enquirer and In Touch stories. Both publications are known to be full of shit. As if they have sources in the Kennedy or Swift camps.

    • Seppy says:

      National Enquirer did break the John Edwards/Rielle Hunter affair story… just sayin’…

      • bns says:

        They were right about Tiger Woods, too.

      • Kim says:

        They are right about 5% of the time USWeekly broke Tiger story and Intouch Weekly broke Jessie James story

      • Carolyn says:

        US Weekly didn’t break the Tiger Woods story. 3AW, a Melbourne (Australia) very respected talkback radio station did. Someone rang to say that Rachael had been ushered into Tiger’s suite at Crown Casino. Someone from his camp was on the phone to Neil Mitchell in 2 seconds flat to deny it and hose it down. I heard it – couldn’t believe my ears. As it unfolded, everyone listening would have though ” There’s more to this than meets the eye”. And the rest is history.

    • Jax says:

      Then why get so defensive about it then? If you don’t like it, read a different post.

    • polk8dot says:

      @ ‘The site’s tagline is “Escapism can be smart”. And yet this article involves analyzing National Enquirer and In Touch stories’
      Oh, lighten up, will ya?
      There are only so many sources where you can get funny, silly, gossippy stories from. You take them for what they are – nobody forces you to believe they’re all true. Still, they are FUN to read and comment on, hence the existence of this site and others like it.
      I’m pretty sure you could never intentially apply ‘smart escapism’ moniker to any of the tabloids, but then I’m convinced the site’s tagline applies to the content of the posts and comments, not the content of the tabs.

      P.S. I now agree with the others above, you do seem to have some weird problem with a lot of stuff on here, so why bother popping in?

  20. TXCinderella says:

    Taylor does seem somewhat immature, so he is probably perfect for her.

  21. bostonian says:

    This does feel like a calculated move on T.swifts part. She was lurking around the Kennedy’s for a while, looking for a new boyfriend. For all their flaws, the glamorous image of the Kennedy’s still endures. Taylor is doing that image good, another generation courting the press and working their easy New England charm and photogenetic prowress.

    The kid is not going to be a perfect match though she will sink those chompers in and try to make it stick. For one thing, the recent loss of his mother who was reportedly an alcoholic. For another, the proper path to Kennedy glory is through Harvard, and politics. If this kid gets caught up with swift and Herr lifestyle then some stodgy dorm room in Cambridge is the last place he’s heading. And a Kennedy without a Harvard diploma is really just another drunken Boston idiot, a recipe for mediocrity. The family will blame her, of course.

  22. Dani says:

    Can she just date someone her own age? Or are guys around 22-25 smart enough to know not to get involved with her? I’m still trying to figure out what a 22 year old girl and a kid out fresh out of high school have in common besides prom.

  23. TheOriginalKitten says:

    So funny-my 80 year old boss just came over to me and started talking to me about Swift saying “Can you believe she’s dating that Kennedy kid? I mean she has to be NUTS! And she’s ugly.”

    Lol! So random. And for the record-I think Swift is really pretty.

    • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

      Haha. That’s great! I’m surprised an 80 year old would know who swifty is.

    • Chatcat says:

      Well Kitten it’s good to know that Bostonians are still embrassing anything Kennedy!

      I too think she is pretty and just cannot get all jacked about this couple. *Shoulder shrug*

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        @ Mort-you have no idea how weird it was. He and I don’t discuss celebrity gossip ya know? I was also SHOCKED he knew who Swifty was-this guy literally doesn’t know how to use the internet (not an exaggeration).

        @ Chat-I think maybe that’s why he was interested-b/c of the Kennedy connection? IDK. My boss is hard-core conservative Republican so I would bet money that he HATES the Kennedys with a passion.
        Hard for me to like any Kennedy on a personal level but I appreciate what Ted did politically for Massachusetts. Aside from that, TK will always be on my shit list for the car crash scandal. SKETCH.

        @chat, my dad modeled his life after JFK. Catholic, left-leaning politician, with a penchant for philandering. *eyeroll* I never discussed politics with my boss, but I used to intern at a Catholic funeral home (when I was 18). One day, the boss’s wife told me to distribute Pro-life literature. Even though it was contrary to what I believed I was afraid I’d lose my job for saying No, so I’d walk outside and place the flyers in the nearest trash bin instead. LOL

        @kitten, maybe he’s reading celebitchy over your shoulder at work? LOL

      Love your boss! Hilarious!

    I love Taylor,I really do,but this is sooo wrong.I don’t mind the age difference at all,but from experience ,there is no way this is the right time for a new romance.His Mom just died!You are so f-cked up for so long.I put $ he is on some meds.(I hope)The only way this would make sense is if they were dating before she died,or maybe he’s kinda using her because she’s so famous.

  25. aquarius64 says:

    Swifty will be in the pile with other celebrity women Kennedy men dated. The men in that bunch mess with starlets not marry them. That goes all the way back to old Joe Kennedy.

    • EmmaStoneWannabe says:

      Kinda reminds me from Legally Blonde: “Elle, if I’m gonna be a senator by the time I’m 30, I need to marry a Jackie, not a Marilyn.”
      LOL little Elle Woods showed that prick didnt she 😉

  26. Kim says:

    Hollywoodlife has pics of Connor having lunch with Taylor and her parents.Meet the Parents you go girl

    • Bellakitty says:

      That seems very quick to me. My advice is: Run young Mr. Kennedy Run while you still have time!

    • grace says:

      People.com has confirmed with a rep that the guy in the picture is Taylor’s brother. It was taken two months ago on Father’s Day.

  27. j.eyre says:

    Taylor certainly does look the part though, doesn’t she?
    And I would like to award special bonus Friday points for all the proposed album names that have been proffered.

    • grace says:

      Yes, they make a good-looking couple. I’ll bet Vanity Fair staffers are praying this one lasts a while.

  28. jj says:

    worked at a venue in atlanta with her. she was absolutely horrible. the only way i can see her being kind to someone is if she was getting something out of it. treated everyone working like they were so below her. It was horrible.

  29. Green_Eyes says:

    You threw me/ the young Jackie and John comment..was going to laugh, but started choking on my cheerios! Jackie has one major quality that Swifty will never have….CLASS (ok well maybe 2 as she was not a blonde). So sick of her fake bubble gum & rainbow colored fake all sweetness act. She so reminds me of a family member that adores her so much & tries to be her in every way. Oh wait she is just like her… She’s a fake one too… She & her lil Swifty fan club are nauseating as hell!!

    • Joe says:

      Its you who is sickening here. Grab some meds and lie down.

      Taylor Swift is one of the best persons all around in a celebrity world. She has more CLASS than you that is for sure.

      Her endless donations to all kind of different causes are very admirable. Flood-relief, schools, hospitals etc. These sums come up to millions and helped tons of people. So stfu.

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        Joe-If Swift is “classy” then perhaps you should emulate your idol and chill with the name-calling and the “STFU”s.

      • Izzy says:

        @OriginalKitten: +1!! What is it with all the rudies showing up lately on this board? I know it’s Celebitchy, but we’re supposed to bitch about celebs, not at each other.

      • Kim says:

        Classy people dont date Mayer the douche.She may be charitable though.

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        @ Izzy-seriously! It makes me wonder what the comments that DON’T make it past the mods are like.

      • rumbleseat says:

        Yes, nothing screams classy like a child of privilege making millions by screeching insult and victimhood to the masses under the guise of being “nice” and “a role model.” Good job getting kicked off the HuffPo, by the way.

      • Jax says:

        You sound like you know her personally. But more like in a PR capacity. Not everyone has to like Swifty.

      • Green_Eyes says:

        See what I mean… My niece in public is all sweet but as T.S. There is another side to her..this side. Ironically both are namedYaylor, and lil one your slowing your true colors… Lol Joe? no Taylor!;) lol

      • Green_Eyes says:

        Oh & Taylor, I mean Joe… I have more Class then you will see in your lifetime. When you hold the hand of people dying from Cancer because it’s the humane thing to do & they have no one, you raise money for others health care while scrimping to pay your own, and so much more w/o having a Celebrity name and do so w/o drawing attention to yourself… Come & tell me how Classy I am not. By the way telling someone to ST-U..really really Classy. Fans of Swifty w/ behavior like that are exactly the image I see behind that fake syrupy bubble gum act….

  30. Jordan says:

    Has she ever heard of the Kennedy Curse? That’s not a family anyone should want to manipulate themselves into. But, I don’t see their age difference as a big deal so not sure why you’re up in arms about that.

  31. Peg says:

    You have nailed the whole scenario. Nice job!

  32. Loralei says:

    It was reported in the news that they found evidence that Connor’s mother may have changed her mind and wanted to live during the lasts minutes. There were marks on her neck indicating that she was trying to take the rope off. So awfull.

  33. Garvels says:

    LOL, hysterical post:) I completely agree that Swifty will be the next Jennifer Aniston.

  34. Maritza says:

    That relationship will end once he goes to College, he is a cute kid and there will be plenty of girls who will fall for his charm. Taylor Swift will move on to another guy.

  35. Izzy says:

    Soooo… basically, she’s turning into Marilyn Monroe when it comes to men.

    • Green_Eyes says:

      I had that thought for split second also Izzy…but unlike Marilyn, she kisses & tells & just doesn’t have that innocent iconic sex kitten vibe that women want to imitate & men want to be with. Standing the test of scandals and over half a century. <3

    • Bodhi says:

      Bish wishes…

  36. jferber says:

    It’s very interesting, the “she’s a good girl, y’all” argument versus the “she’s a bad girl, y’all” counter-argument. So you’re either Ethel pumping out 11 kids or Marilyn, cheating with a married man? But who was really the good girl there? Was it hard-as-nails Ethel or vulnerable Marilyn? I’ve always thought the angel/tramp dichotomy was crap and a moral convenience for men. People (yes, even and especially women) are way more complicated than that. So maybe Taylor is neither the predator nor the victim here. A Kennedy boy Conor’s age is hardly jail bait. I’d bet he’s more emotionally mature than Taylor, in fact. Maybe both should proceed cautiously. Each can be hurt and no one’s motives are perfectly pure.

    • TheOriginalKitten says:

      ITA 100% with everything you said, but for gossip-purposes, people tend to create almost stylized interpretations of celebs’ personas.
      I used to argue your point until I just gave in. /shrugs

  37. jferber says:

    Would it make me sound like a predator if I were to add that Conor is yummy?

  38. Ha Ha says:

    They’ll keep her around. Until one night, while sitting around the camp fire, they’ll ask her… “Hey Taylor, sing for us…..” then its to the curb she goes.

  39. Katija says:

    Too sleazy to be a Jackie and too refined to be a Marilyn. Damnit, Swift!

  40. GirlyGIrl says:

    Yeech, the Kennedys…

    Hey Taylor, you don’t need to manipulate anyone to get in with those bootleggers, just drink the Roofie Colada they give you and you’ll be one of the ‘Family’

  41. kellyinseattle says:

    Too much disrespect against Jackie in here, for me. She was one of a kind; Taylor Swift isn’t.

  42. Raven says:

    My guess is that the small group of family members who are sniping behind Ethel’s back are the ones who recently made bail.

  43. TheOneAndOnlyOnly says:

    Bodhi and eve spot on and all these comments are why i rea this blog; it is BLASPEMY to mention this vacant whiny juvenile pop star in the same breath as Jackie O.; squinty eyed swifty is a corporate created money machine; Jackie was/is an icon by the way she lived her life, not by staging events for a celebutard obsessed media. Swifty may marry into the family but it will be sparkle dust,silliness, and awkwardness, not Camelot. And swifty is not a well-educated sophisticate by any stretch.

  44. Inigo Montoya says:

    Wouldn’t the allegation ‘Taylor Swift manipulated the Kennedy’s way into her.’ be a bit more accurate?

    8^)

  45. Lily says:

    We thought Leann Rimes was a sweet little country western singer too. Look how she turned out. Bet Taylor does an instant replay of Rimes down the road. Maybe they came out of the same mold. I don’t trust this one. Just a feeling I get about her.She seems to have a dark side like Rimes. I do hope I’m wrong about her though.

  46. A says:

    I can’t help it. I kind of like Taylor, even though I despise her music. She’s the bubblegum bitch who manages to look like she trotted out of a 1950s movie and somehow managed to entrance millions of people. I think she has an interested face too, almost feline. I just find it interesting how she’s managed to develop this huge career and maintain her reputation despite fucking Mayer.

  47. ZenB!tch says:

    Gross! Pedo!

  48. this blog very good, written well. and i think i will go to this site every day.
