Wendy Williams: ‘Taylor Swift is the Queen of Mean… she’s sneaky & smart’

wenn22839731

Some people can’t stand Wendy Williams. Some people adore her and think she’s hilarious. Personally, I enjoy dirty, not-nice gossip, so I can take Wendy in small doses and I actually think her readings of certain celebrity situations are pretty accurate. I certainly believe she got it right on Solange throwing down on Jay-Z after the Met Gala. And I think Wendy got it right when she discussed the central problem of Ariana Grande, which is that Ariana looks 12 (and acts like a tantrumy diva baby). On Monday’s show, Wendy shared some thoughts about Taylor Swift and Tay-Tay’s girl squad. Tell me if Wendy is telling any lies.

Wendy Williams broached the topic of Taylor Swift while announcing the fact that she currently holds the title of most followers on Instagram, ahead of notable social media mavens Kim Kardashian and Beyoncé. While Swift’s more than 50 million Instagram followers would probably beg to differ, Williams asserts the blonde beauty’s strong popularity streak is masking an underlying darker trait.

“People like Taylor and I think that the reason why also is a hidden secret of mean,” she said during a round of “Hot Topics.” “I think that she is probably meaner than Beyoncé and Kim put together. In my mind, Taylor Swift is the Queen of the Mean. She’s sneaky and smart about doing it which makes her smarter than the other two.”

According to Williams, such “sneaky” tactics include posting photographs posing fully-clothed with her cats or in the kitchen—a wholesome look in comparison to Kardashian’s cleavage-baring selfies or Beyoncé’s thigh gap-flaunting bikini shots.

“She’s got her girl army hypnotized to think she’s the bee’s knees. From the Cara…to Kendall Jenners, those girls they all hang out. Taylor bakes and cooks. We’ve never seen Kim or Beyoncé bake and cook,” the host notorious for her gab continued to explain. So, how should the celebs displaced in the Instagram ranks right their way back up the ladder? For starters, if you can’t beat Swift, join her.

“Here’s the thing, she’s trying to trick us into thinking she’s a good woman because she bakes and cooks and it’s actually working right now on Instagram,” the 51-year-old host acknowledged. “For Kim and Beyoncé, if you weren’t so obvious about your thing and a little more covert, you two will be back on top of Instagram, but for right now, it’s all about Taylor Swift.”

[From E! News]

Again, tell me if she told any lies. Taylor is TOTALLY meaner than Beyonce and Kim put together. Beyonce is – and I’m going to be really harsh, so forgive me – not smart enough to be a real Mean Girl. Kim is too vapid and self-absorbed to be a Mean Girl because being mean would mean putting effort into something other than her appearance or her own stardom. Taylor is the Mean Girl. And yes, Wendy is right about Taylor’s social media popularity. Taylor has always played the Good Girl, the pure, innocent blonde in a sea of brunette bitches. The answer for Kim and Beyonce? Beyonce needs to get a kitten. A kitten cuter than Olivia and Meredith (which will be difficult). And Kim needs to learn how to bake. Yeezus cupcakes!!!

    Not harsh. Beyoncé is not smart enough to outmean Taylor. Dead right.

    And too much Wendy grates my nerves, but she’s spot on here. I love it. Except the girl squad is coming for her.

    • V4Real says:

      Wendy isn’t scared of Taylor’s girl squad. She would crush them with her words and leave them crying in a corner somewhere.

    • Birdix says:

      All you need to be “smart” as a mean girl is a 7th grade girl’s savvy–I’d rather have Beyonce’s type of smart than that. Any why should Taylor Swift be called sneaky and mean because she is presenting a certain self-image? She may be mean, she may not–but how she presents herself on instagram is all business, as it should be for someone who earns as much as she does on her image.

      • als says:

        @Birdix – Agree!
        Why would Beyonce need to be in a competition with Swift for being the Mean Girl? She is freaking Beyonce. When she walks on stage she owns it, no need for an army of supermodels. When she starts dancing you watch her even though you may not like her style. Shame on all the legends like Mick Jagger that accepted to walk on stage with Swift – IDIOTS!
        Beyonce and Swifty are not in the same league, so I don’t think this lady is lying but she is mixing things up.
        Swift may be a good business woman but she will never be as talented and impressive live as Beyonce.

      • Kaye says:

        I agree, Birdix.

      • mary says:

        Agree. I was all ready for some interesting back stories that would back up her claim. Instead we got nothing. Wendy may be right, and Taylor may be mean, but theres nothing here to back it up.
        Neither Beyoncé or Kim are known as mean girls.

      • tim says:

        Exactly birdix. Choosing not to bare skin on instagram makes Taylor Swift mean? Is she mean when she visits fans and sick kids? What a stupid comment by Wendy Williams.

      • FLORC says:

        Tim
        This is funny because swifty does bare skin and flaunt, but the wholesome baking is more prevalent. And swifty visits some sick kids orvtweets them, but Kim and Bey are both regulars with make a wish and often do not advertise this. Taytay poses and posts those visits.

        Point being there’s an image carefully cultivated and swifty has been able to be that mean girl and appear clean. Passive aggressive songs, rabid fans she encourages to lash out, and girl squad meangirling for her.her good girl facadé has been cracking lately.

  2. Pri says:

    I like Wendy, I can disagree with her points (often lately) but I like her show. She does not fawn to celebs like Ellen.

    • Kosmos says:

      I like Wendy because she’s not afraid to call someone out, good for her !! Time will tell if Taylor remains a prima donna…..to me, she’s just an average singer who has become popular. I see no real reason for her becoming extremely popular, but it does happen for unexplainable reasons; however, she could go down just as fast……

  3. aims says:

    I think Wendy just hit the nail on the head. I’ve always thought Taylor was a mean girl and I’m glad someone is calling her out on her sh*t.

  4. Shambles says:

    No lies have been detected here.

  5. Abbott says:

    See, I don’t think Taylor is sneaky I her meanness, it’s obvious. Like, embarrassingly obvious.

  6. Yeses says:

    Taylor is definitely Regina George in sheep’s clothing….thank you Katy Perry and thank you Wendy….there is something so conniving and calculating about TS.

    • mary mary says:

      It is image crafting. Taylor’s mom was a business manager for an advertising/public relations firm. Taylor learned early on how to image with pr and present herself.

      Business sense learned from her executive investment dad. Put the two together, she learned wisely from her environment.

      The Regina girl with hidden talons came out for show with Katy Perry. Never want to
      publicly cross Swift. Meow.

  7. Sabrina says:

    I agree with Wendy. Taylor’s image is very calculated and she is definitely smart with the way she handles her image.

  8. Amelia says:

    I don’t doubt that Taylor is savvier and sharper than Beyonce and Kim, but I don’t quite follow her line of reasoning.
    I may be completely wrong, but Taylor seems to legitimately enjoy the barefoot contessa, baking, cat-loving lifestyle.
    Of course her Instagram is painstakingly curated to craft the image of a sweet, dorky, Tumblr loving young woman to endear herself to her fans and make a distinction between Beyonce and Kim’s online presence, but to infer that she’s ‘tricking’ people seems a bit silly to me.
    Anyone with a shred of PR knowledge who’s also seen Swifty’s Vogue/Esquire covers and her obvious meangirlling within her lyrics could work out that she’s not all sugar and spice.

    • vauvert says:

      Thank you Amelia! Excuse me, Taylor is sneaky because she bakes, loves her cats, and doesn’t pose in transparent, mesh dresses covered with rhinestones? WTF?
      I get it, she has her detractors, but to extrapolate sneakiness and meanness because she is not vapidly shilling a corset or a fake ass… That is silly.
      No one is stopping other celebs from being wholesome, or pretending to be wholesome. Please, go to it. It would be nice to see outfits that are the proper size, covering one’s body, suited to the seasons… On either Bey or anyone else. But they do the sexy all the time, and Tay doesn’t, or at least not all the time.
      As dar as the baking goes, I would be surprised if most celebs knew where the kitchen was. Now, that in itself doesn’t bother me, they’re rich and have staff, whatever, but just because this other person enjoys crafts and cooking -that means she is plotting to undermine everyone?

      • The Beldam says:

        My thoughts exactly!!!!

      • We Are All Made of Stars says:

        Noooo, she did not say that not wearing a corset on the internet was plotting to undermine everybody or anybody. What she said was that ThirsTay curates an adorkable homemade image on this social platform in order to project a certain sweetly naive persona to her fanbase that Williams doesn’t believe is authentic. She then points out that she chills with Angry Coke Snorter and Nepotism Kardashian when not filming herself baking cookies for homeless people (the winsomely photogenic ones) and orphaned kittens (ditto).

        I hope you realize that you just made me stand up for Wendy Williams. Yeekkk.

      • Timbuktu says:

        So agree with you! I am not buying any star’s image, but if I could choose who my daughter had to follow, I would MUCH rather she followed a baking cat lady than Kim K.

    • wrinkled says:

      Taylor chose a different image to project to her fans in order to set herself apart from countless other celebrities and that strategy seems to have worked well for her.

      • Chinoiserie says:

        That does not mean this image is still closewho she really is. No pop stars image 100% accurate, she can have image that is not completely accurate but it does not mean it is some plot.

      • Pandy says:

        It also doesn’t mean that her image isn’t true either – or at least close to who she is. So she’s not flaunting her bod and she bakes and loves her cats. Does that mean her Instagram has to be body shots because the other two post them?

    • Wren says:

      Agreed. She IS all of those things, and her social media reflects that in a meticulously selected, no-detail-overlooked way. So what? Beyonce and Kim do exactly the same thing, they’re just selling a different image, that’s all. I’m sure Taylor is a bit of a Mean Girl, but, eh, if you really buy wholeheartedly into ANY celebrity’s image then you’re in for some rude awakenings.

      • WinnieCoopersMom says:

        Agree. They got to that level of stardom by doing something other than being just talented and sugary sweet. You have to be cut-throat to make it in the business. But I also agree that she most definitely loves her cats, her fans and her limited time hanging out at her house relaxing and cooking…which her Instagram reflects. Not sure why all of that seems so far fetched.

    • Tiffany :) says:

      Yeah, I am kind of lost on the idea that Taylor is “mean” because posts photos of her baking and cooking. Wendy made a big judgment, but she didn’t provide any back up. I was thinking she was going to say Taylor is mean because she …..

      Instead we get nothing. Hmm.

  9. Luca76 says:

    No lies told.

    I have a issues with WW she can be good for gossip when she actually wants to be real but she also just makes stuff up and dumbs everything down too. I used to listen to her radio show on occasion when I drove around with one of my close girlfriends and this talk show isn’t half of what her radio show was. She doesn’t keep it real.

    • FingerBinger says:

      She has to appeal to a wider audience with the talk show. She keeps it as real as she can. She can’t say the same things on tv.

      • Luca76 says:

        I get that she can’t say the same things but she dumbs things down to the point that they are just undecipherable and wrong.

  10. Laura says:

    Ms. Williams is right on the money; like it or not!

  11. FingerBinger says:

    Wendy is usually spot on with her opinions of celebrities. Wendy is right ,Taylor isn’t what she appears to be.

  12. Nephilim says:

    ehhh…”beneath the beautiful crust, it is hot boiling contents”…that’s her. The Bad Blood song was just it for me. I got done with this young woman. She will get away with her mess…her fans(children and adults) would use a nuclear bomb on a fly that dares to land on her. ai! :/

  13. platypus says:

    This new tactic of collecting random famous “friends” and having them tag along to pose with her everywhere is so embarrassing. It’s like she’s using them as human shields.

  14. QQ says:

    No, she said nothing that was a lie, The girl is outwardly unassailable and clearly strategic about who she shades and also where Beyonce is petty and such she is not that able to engage an do back and forths and put out statements and whatnot, and Kim basically has Jonathan and Khloe to handle her lightweight while she plays fake nice,

    • snowflake says:

      Exactly, Kim’s so f!ckng fake. She has other people do her dirty work so she can stay “clean.” I hare beyotches like that.

  15. Bethie says:

    Wait – Taylor is mean for posting pictures of her with her cats in which she isn’t flaunting her body?

    I don’t get it.

  16. Dawn says:

    There is so much to love about Wendy and yes I believe that Taylor may be a mean girl but in her industry I would think that would be a help and not a hindrence It is not like she can’t back it up bcause I believe she is very talented. Not going to high school just seems to stunt so many of these celebrities so the are always coming off as so immature.

  17. EN says:

    I have no doubt it is true, she couldn’t stay on top if she weren’t smart and mean.
    That industry is full of catty and mean girls. I wouldn’t be able to deal with the likes of them for work.

  18. Melody says:

    I see astute, ambitious, powerful, decisive, self-pitying and brand-controlling. What makes her mean? Her vagina? Why is it not ok for her to be those things (aside from the self-pity, which is not warranted).

    What is mean about her that wouldn’t be excused for a man?

    • Allie says:

      Hmm how about slut shaming other women? Writing rude songs about them because they dated her ex boyfriends? Letting the world know who they are so her fans know who to send hate to? Blatantly spelling out who each song is about? Going on and on (she’s still bringing this up in interviews) about Tina Fey and Amy Poehler having a special place in hell because they teased her? Why can’t we criticize women AND men for doing obnoxious things. I remember people on here ripping Ed Sheeran to shreds when his one song came out and he acknowledged that it was about Ellie Goulding. You can write songs about your exes without being glaringly obvious about it. Have some class.

      It’s crazy to me that people honestly believe all of Taylor’s image. It’s like they refuse to believe she could lie to them. Taylor is not your friend. Taylor is in the business to make money.

      • Melody says:

        I don’t buy into it – I think she developed a product people want to buy. Like Anna Wintour – another powerful and shrewd businesswoman people call “mean.”

      • vauvert says:

        While I love Taylor I agree that writing songs dissing your exes is wrong. I agree that she may be a mean girl at times. I personally do not know anyone who is perfectly good and kind all the time, we all have moments of anger and spite – but saying she is sneaky because she bakes and loves her cats strikes me as a complete non sequitur.
        And no, I don’t believe Taylor is my friend, and of course she is in business to make money, like every other performer out there. What does that have to with anything?

      • We Are All Made of Stars says:

        Wait Allie, are you saying that people also now criticize MEN for tacky and vindictive behavior and that this is fair game when you choose to air your business in the streets and embarrass other people in the process? lol, stop being so logical or there won’t be any way left to defend her! 😉

    • Josefa says:

      *An army three times the size of the Roman Empire yells “this”*

    • Kelly says:

      Right. Because this is Wendy Williams’ opinion that must make it true? No it is not conclusive evidence and it does surprise me the amount of hate she gets from this website. Weird.

    • Original T.C. says:

      “What is mean about her that wouldn’t be excused for a man?”

      I’ll bite. What man has been excused for devoting album over album (in fact his entire career) to bashing his famous ex-girlfriends and using decoders that clearly spell their name out? What man wrote a popular song bashing an ex-guy friend because he was bitter that his ex girlfriend (whom he trashed in a popular song) is now dating his friend? What guy tells us EVERY DETAIL of his love life and then pulls the victim card when you point out this fact?

      What guy gets away with being two-faced or being a hypocrite that doesn’t get called out on it? Please, miss me with the Swifty faux white feminism. Men wouldn’t be able to get away with half of what Swifty does. Steve Jobs, a man, who created Apple is equally called out for being a complete A$$hole in private, as is Kanye West and many other men.

      Feminism is about equal treatment to men not being a shield to protect you being a jerk to others.

  19. June says:

    Love Wendy Williams. Period.

  20. Nancy says:

    I think there are the many faces of Taylor, the one she has and the one she wants you to see. She has trouble getting along with the fiercer women of the industry and that’s when she gets the sads and the pity from her tweens and their mothers and the boys/men she’s doing/done. But she does have talent and has managed to have this huge career, she’s no dummie. My problem is Wendy Williams is the one voicing this opinion. She may have her lovers, but I am not amongst them. I watched her show a couple of times and the woman’s mouth actually waters when there is a food segment. The cough drops under the wig, the oversized implants…she’s a hot mess. Wasn’t it Joey on Friends that started the how you doing thing. Williams acts as though he did…….Freudian slip, she did.

  21. InvaderTak says:

    Are Bey and Kim really mean though? They are the best at sell sell sell and image, but mean? Self absorbed divas sure, but they aren’t throwing phones at assistants are they? Is she saying that being a mean girl in the industry means being a hard-as$ in the biz, but a harmless cat lady to the public? She has a problem with the two-faced nature of that?

    • Priya says:

      I kinda doubt any one of these women is actually mean. It’s kind of Wendy Williams being the mean one.

      Bey seems so sweet, Kim might be upfront about her vanity but I think she has a good heart, and Taylor is called sweet and generous and kind by more people who have worked closely with her than those who have issues with her.

  22. blueb says:

    So, baking, having cats and and covering your boobs and butt make Swift a mean girl??

    • Melody says:

      Maybe in WW world making Kim and Bey look vapid and dumb by comparison is mean, I suppose.

      • blueb says:

        I’ve never thought of Bey as vapid or dumb, I think she’s arrogant and Kim doesn’t need any help in looking stupid… Wendy Williams just wants people to know her name and watch her show so she’s gonna start something with Taylor Swift…

    • FingerBinger says:

      Wendy is saying it’s an act. She’s saying Taylor’s good girl image is not who she really is.

      • WinnieCoopersMom says:

        yeah but she doesnt have any substance to back it up with..if it’s a cover up, what is under it? WW has nothing on TS, except for side-eyeing her bc of her sweet image. Maybe WW would get more cred if she backed up her vapid theories with some true facts or dirt…but she has none. So..yeah.

  23. Neah23 says:

    While I agree some what with Windy take on Talyor Windy herself is full of Sh*t.

  24. petan says:

    Lmao. I didn’t know baking and taking pictures of your cats and your friends in fully clothed (wholesome) outfit makes you mean and snarky? This is a stupid analization. I’d take Swift’s baking, staged friends and cat photos over Beyonce’s and KimK’s narcissistic, over photoshopped photos on IG. I’m tired of seeing their cleavage and butts on social media.

    And puhlease, Wendy should not be commenting on being snark and mean. She herself is a bully, snark and mean.

  25. Dr. Funkenstein says:

    Can’t argue with Wendy here.

  26. Josefa says:

    I can’t say if she’s lying because I don’t know Taylor Swift. Have we really become so superficial as a society its acceptable to make a full psychological analysis of a person just based off Instagram pictures?

    I think Swifty is deffo a lot smarter than she appears. Nobody becomes that rich and that big in THAT industry being naive and cute. But I don’t get why people are so inclined to see shade and bad intentions in everything she does. Is it really that hard to believe Taylor snaps pictures of her cats just because they look cute, like everyone in her fanbase does?

    • Priya says:

      You’re right on. I don’t understand why people hate Taylor Swift or KK so much. It’s not even an indifference. It’s as though either of them robbed the person of something. It’s so nutty to spend so much time hating someone you don’t know. Maybe it’s a way to feel superior or better about themselves in some immature way.

      I doubt that Bey, KK, nor TS are perfect angels who never get irritated with anyone or never need to kvetch. I can understand that some women find it grating that TS represents an ideal that we’ll never live up, that she clearly works hard to be successful and it shows (hence the whole try-hard digs at her). But we’re not being asked to be her.

  27. Fluff says:

    Please explain to me why it’s a bad thing that a young woman is intelligent, savy, and managed to achieve success without prostituting herself physically? Because this comes across as “uppity girl, don’t you know women are supposed to be brainless bimbos writhing naked on the floor covered in baby oil?”

    Swift has done a lot of highly problematic things. It says something that this Wendy person (I’ve never heard of her before, but seems like one of those women who really resent other women) ignores all of those completely – like, slutshaming other women is fine, but being smart and keeping your clothes on is not?

    • Melody says:

      Who did she slut-shame? (Serious question, not a throw-down argument invite)

      • Nina says:

        Camilla Belle in Better than Revenge because of Joe Jonas.
        That song is such a hot mess. Taylor said some words about how “I wrote it back when I was 19 and didn’t know people can’t steal your boyfriend” (so profound) but she never apologized to Camilla (who ended up tweeting something shady during the Katy Perry Regina George tweet fiasco, lmao).

      • Priya says:

        Camille Belle thing was when Swift was 17 or 18. Pick something recent. Swift even talked about it and said at that age, she didn’t understand that a girl couldn’t steal someone’s boyfriend. (My bff since hs went through this issue where it was easier for her to blame the other girl than blame her boyfriend who cheated on her. Clearly it was her boyfriend who cheated.it took her awhile to accept that.

        Which is actually pretty mature of her to admit, because there are grown women here who think there are women who can be home wreckers. Elizabeth Edwards thought so—didn’t quite blame John Edwards, just blamed Rielle Hunter. And everyone who thinks Pitt was “stolen” by Jolie from Aniston.

        I’ll bet anything Swift tried to apologize to Camille Belle but Camille wanted to milk it to revive her movie career by being associated with Swift. And that’s not a bad move for her.

  28. Tallyrander says:

    I agree that Taylor is a mean girl. I don’t think the examples Wendy uses are apt though. Taylor taking pictures of herself clothed is now a bad thing, or is in direct competition with Beyonce? Or posting pictures of herself baking is a bad thing? I don’t see how the examples Wendy cites are indicative of Taylor’s mean girl qualities. If Taylor is trying to get back at Beyonce by dressing more conservatively which seems to be a ridiculous assertion, I don’t see how that’s a bad thing anyway.

  29. Tacos and TV says:

    Taylor Swift Bangs is a well oil machine and I do think she is not a sugary sweet little muffin people make her out to be. You know who is? Bindi Irwin!! I’m sorry but I just love love her. Anywho, on topic, Taylor is not nice at all. She is coy and calculating and she knows exactly what she is doing. She does everything with intention and her wheels are always spinning. I see through her veneers… right through them.

  30. Saywhatwhen says:

    Taylor not that smart. Conniving, yes. User, yes. But the adorkable, sweet girl thing is cultivated by her handlers and it is not original. That is coming straight out of Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey “How Will I Know” and “Dream Lover” days. Her handlers have been copying from some old school media types who made Mariah and Whitney lovable to teenage boy and girls of all colours, so much so that we loved them into our twenties and pine for them now. Social media just made it easier for them. Nothing smart going on here. And as for the conniving Taylor…who among them isn’t. Beyoncé and Ri can take note in that there is only so much naked can do for you.

    I long for the days of Whitney in her Turtle Neck sweaters and a single mic with the audience glued to her singing live and Mariah with her bouncy curls running through the meadow. A little cleanliness never hurt no one’s image. Elevator fights, fake backsides and nipple piercing notwithstanding, a good voice can only take you so far. Taylor’s people know this and Taylor is willing to set aside he ego and listen. The others don’t do enough listening.

    • Aren says:

      I agree that she’s not smart. She’s calculating and shameless.
      Many pop starts have had a nice “kid friendly” image, but they didn’t use it to hurt others like Taylor does.

    • Priya says:

      Lol, I’m sure she hangs around her place wearing a motorcycle jacket and puts motorcycle jackets on her cats, and snorts cocaine in her spare time. The baking, tumblr-ing, Netflixing is all a front. Those cats are animatronic robots.

      It all makes sense now:)

      (Omg how cute would her kitties be in moto jackets, my gosh!!!)

  31. Ally.M says:

    Maybe she actually does love her cats and baking. Of course she has a dark side, we all do. A little too much over thinking going on, coming across as slightly insane rant to me.

  32. iheartgossip says:

    Her downfall will be EPIC. And, there will be plenty of people enjoying the fall. Awful person made up to seem like the girl next door.

  33. To paraphrase “mean girls” – You Go Wendy Coco !

  34. Josefa says:

    What has Taylor Swift done that’s so awful? Her girl-squading friend-collecting antics are annoying. Her lyrics are highly immature. She’s constantly victimizing herself. But that’s it? I can understand adjectives like “fake”, “annoying” and “childish” being thrown at her, but awful? Am I missing something here?

  35. Uber says:

    Beyonce is really dumb. So true. Kim doesn’t have the mean girls thing at all, maybe because she’s too self-absorbed but probably because of her big family image and growing up in a family of women and strong women. I never liked Taylor Swift. All those stupid songs capitalising on her exes and the thing with Katy Perry. She seems passive aggressive and manipulative and her short-skirt outfits are really, really boring and annoying. Plus she uses her pets as a pap prop and lap prop instead of letting them live normal lives. However she looks really good in that pant suit thing in this thread.

  36. Jules says:

    Disagree. Williams’ comments are farfetched. Taylor’s not some mean girl mastermind. Honestly, I think she’s just a normal girl with lots of money and fame and media attention and people like to speculate and make things appear more complicated than they really are. She probably likes to bake to destress from her demanding job.

  37. Nik says:

    Wendy speaks truth. I’ve seen stories about who else thinks she’s not 100% cute and not 100% nice

  38. Beezers says:

    Wendy, you in danger, gurl!

  39. d says:

    Eeh, I don’t know about that Beyonce comment. There’s a video out there from destiny child’s early early days where the gals are being interviewed and a really hilarious part of it is Beyonce’s expression when one of the other girls talks about herself and her role in the group. So. But other than that, I think Beyonce’s in a league of her own when it comes to managing her image and I actually think she’s better than Swift or at least, I prefer Beyonce’s approach to tightly controlling her image. But that’s just me, of the generation where less is more.

      I think Beyonce tightly controlling her image is more about the fact she has nothing interesting to say. She can’t carry on a substantial conversation. Just waste ten minutes of your life by YouTubing her interviews and you’ll see what I mean.

        Eh, maybe, could be. And that’s fine, because frankly, I generally don’t care if they have anything or nothing interesting to say and I mean, do they really need to? For Beyonce’s stuff, I like some of her music, it’s good to dance to or whatever, and that’s good enough for me and for what she does and the kind of music she does. I don’t need to know any more; I have other things to think about. If she’s an airhead, big whoop. Same with Swift and whatever she does. Although I think I’m just tilting at windmills here, so never mind.

    I’ve been saying that for years! Sadly one of my friends completely buys into her cutesy girl schtick. We finally just agreed to disagree.

    Windy is jealous because Taylor looks like a woman and has real hair, unlike wendy who looks and is built like a MAN and does not have real hair!
