Even though Taylor Swift isn’t promoting an album and her tour is totally done, she still hasn’t gone away (as she promised). But I’m not mad about it. Taylor is good for business no matter what she’s doing. Taylor covers the latest issue of Vogue (the May issue) ahead of her Met Gala co-hosting duties. Taylor is hanging out at Coachella with her boyfriend. Taylor is platinum blonde. Taylor is everywhere. So why is it that the most interesting thing Taylor has done in a long time is let us creep on one of her many homes?
As part of Vogue’s attempt to have a bigger footprint in online content, they now encourage all of their cover subjects to do this “73 Questions” bit. Taylor agreed to it, and this video was filmed way before she changed up her hair so dramatically several times over the past few months. This takes place in LA, as she’s prepping for the Grammys… so, that means late January or very early February. The Vogue guy throws out questions to her but the real headline is that her Beverly Hills home is decorated just as you would expect it to be decorated. And Taylor is SO tall that she looks like she’s living in this tiny little home. Everything looks doll-sized with Taylor throwing off the proportions. Here’s the video. It’s more than nine minutes long!
Random thoughts:
I’m surprised by the “busy” wallpaper in the entrance. That would drive me crazy.
Her home reminds me of the home of a cool 85-year-old grandmother.
“I’m a very spontaneous person…” Yes.
Vodka & Diet Coke is such a college-freshman cocktail. It’s also kind of gross, right? I mean, I love Diet Coke, but it’s much better to mix it with rum.
Her sink situation is amazing/crazy.
Of course she loves Love, Actually. I bet she loves Notting Hill too.
While her house seems to have weirdly small proportions, her outdoor area is THE BOMB.
Calvin Harris planted an olive tree in her yard for Christmas!!!!! I bet she would have preferred an engagement ring, just sayin’.
THAT BIKE (around the 5:30 mark).
“Get a good lawyer” – I would argue that getting a lawyer is great advice for nearly everyone.
Taylor’s lamp situation is interesting/annoying. That Japanned lamp in her sitting room looks so out of place.
Of course she has awards spread out all over the place.
Near the end, Taylor is asked what she advice she would give to a 19-year-old, or her 19-year-old self. She says: “If I could talk to my 19-year-old self, I’d say ‘Hey, you’re going to date just like a normal 20-something should be allowed to but you’re going to be a national lightning rod for slut shaming.” Again, I feel like Taylor willfully misses the point, just as she did in her Vogue interview. If she wants to date, then good for her. People were always going to pay attention to who she dated because she was and is a massive celebrity. We took issue with the blind-item songs, the promotion of those relationships as if she was rolling out a new album, and oh, by the way, the whole thing with Conor Kennedy was still her creepiest moment. He was still in high school and she checked him out of his prep school so that they could go antiquing together. Talking about how she operates is NOT slut-shaming.
Also, this happened:

Poor baby. Always the victim. Must be rough being rich, white, tall ,and skinny. Everyone’s out to get you.
Hahaa….Right!! I don’t know how she manages to get out of bed every morning…
leigh: 100. Her life is like a fairytale to a young girl. People mock her for her lengthy list of exes, but don’t recall anyone calling her a slut. She should enjoy her success and stop analyzing every single word said about her.
She’s so asexual, I never assumed she was sleeping with any of them.
And isn’t that why she shares too much about her love life? Because she knows she’s viewed as asexual. I think she doesn’t realize her own motives. No need for her to try to convince us she has sex or how often or with how many guys via song lyrics. Her having sex is not in question. It is her sex appeal that is in question. She doesn’t get it.
Yeah. I was surprised she said that too. I liked that she got no reaction from the interviewer.
HOW DARE YOU? she was nice enough to let us look into one of her MULITPLE multi million dollar estates.
Seriously, I guess this is the next stage of her PR.
+1
To paraphrase a great movie teacher, must have been hard for her to overcome all those years of white, upper-middle class oppression. Musta been tough.
Yes! 10 Things I Hate About You!
Glad someone said it
I love her. I think everyone here was just as bad if not worse at her age and we got to be dick heads in private!
She’s 26, not 16.
I just rolled my eyes so hard I gave myself a migraine.
I cannot believe how she has dragged this ridiculous narrative out. So, so sick of her.
Oy. To say nothing of the s shaming she’s done to others right? Get real swift.
Katy Perry nailed it with that tweet a couple years back.
Swift really is the ultimate Regina George.
Exactly. She called Camilla Belle a slut in one of her songs just because the 16-year old girl dared to date her ex-boyfriend.
she has since said she was wrong. she was very young when she wrote that song.
She’s a bully who wants to paint herself as a perpetual victim.
I have no love of Katy Perry but she had it spot-on with that Regina George tweet.
Finally someone calls her out on the slut shaming she does!! Thank you! Hypocrisy is strong with this one.
Bullying only matters when it’s done to her. Just like she only cares about authenticity when someone’s marketing with her name, not when she’s stealing from an unknown artist and fan of her.
She and Kanye deserve each other. Battle of the Egos.
I wish she’d shut up so I could muster even a half-hearted attempt to like her, but she won’t so I can’t.
Love, Actually. Of course she did. Well, one of her nemeses, either Amy Poehler or Tina Fry hated it. The other liked it. I like whoever hated it.
–TheRealPinky
The Real Pinky! You said it perfectly….The Battle of the Egos. They both have oversized opinions of their greatness and need to have those egos fed on a regular…………….
I get the impression Taylor Swift thinks she’s a national lightning rod for just about everything.
To be fair, she is.
To be fair, she’s usually the one who constructs the rod in the first place
Monica Lewinsky would like a word with you, Taylor. A woman who did not sell out every man she has been with in blind item songs and did not make millions with it.
if you make you career about your dating life its always fair game.
lets all not forget it was all very tame. “stay away from Michael J Foxs Son” or something like that, she acts like she was called the worst names and lost out on jobs or something. she is bigger than ever.
Also NO, there are no men who did it like Taylor does. ther are male singers who sing about their love lives but not as identifying (“Dear John”, “Styles”) as Taylor does. I mean there is probably no other celeb, male or female, who dates so many teenage heart throbs and then talks about it in their work. Why do you think Adele does not get called out like Taylor? she also wrote an album about a guy but it was nowhere near a defining characterisic. thats the difference.
i dont know how someone can defend her on that, a man would not get away with kissing and telling that much about famous women. he certainly couldnt play the victim.
also she loved to actually slut shame herself with very direct words in her songs.
You are so right. Carly Simon kept people guessing for decades with You’re So Vain. Miss Taylor is naming names. John Mayer was not happy with that song. She’s basically outing herself and then crying foul. Man, I’m agreeing with everyone this morning…..
I had to look it up because I couldn’t believe she’d actually released songs using specific names. How unbelievably tacky. I’m surprised anyone would want to get involved with her for fear of being publicly shamed if things didn’t work out.
Exactly. Of course singers sing about love, heartbreak and old relationships. Know what they don’t do?
Put hints to their boyfriends in the liner notes. Publicly date before breaking up and then coyly say, “You guys know who this is about.” Slutshame other girls by the tune of one song, claim she knows better, then assemble a whole cast to create a revenge song against another girl.
She’s the Single White Female of the music industry and she needs to calm down. She got her rep for acting so aggressively obsessed and emotional, not because she dated around.
I wouldn’t say she was slut shamed, though it may have felt that way to her. I think it was more her being the butt of a national “boy crazy” joke.
She wasn’t slut shamed. Taylor was made fun of because she would go overboard with her 3 month romances. She acted like she was in the greatest romances of all time and then wrote not blind item songs when they broke up. I believe she still has that way of thinking. Funny how a tree from her boyfriend is the best gift.
That’s it exactly, and that’s not slut shaming. I don’t think she gets it at all, but not surprising, she probably lives in an isolated bubble.
Yeah I don’t think she actually knows what slut shaming means. She just heard people use the term, knew it sounded bad, so in turn thought it would be a way to describe how she was treated. Someone tell her that it is actually what she has done to many others, but it has yet to be done to her. Another way she wants to make herself seem like she appears sexy/sexual, but still no one else is seeing it.
This. No one called her a whore or a slut. If anything, people were incredibly kind framing it as if she was a boy crazy 13 year old.
yep she even said:
” I don’t like it when headlines read “Careful, Bro, She’ll Write a Song About You,” because it trivializes my work.”
it trivializes the songs she writes about those very things? she is trivializing it herself then.
the headline is not only true its also very tame. if you cant stand such a super tame joke im worried for you, Taylor.
That olive branch thing will end up being weirdly hilarious in time, it’s like a joke being loaded up.
Also isn’t that funny?
Best gift ever? From a boyfriend.
Most important person ever? Model.
Depth like a puddle.
I thought the tree was either 1) a “pun”. An Olive tree = an I love tree or 2) a sorry I screwed up tree=olive branch.
Her home reminds me of the home of a cool 85-year-old grandmother. – agree that it looks like granny’s home. Not sure about cool though. That busy wallpaper would drive me mad too.
I love her house. That kitchen is to die for.
I swear that wallpaper was in my great aunt’s house in the 70’s.
She may not have been slut shamed here but she was on pretty much all the other celebrity sites. She was accused of “not being able to keep a man” and of course “getting around”. My dislike for this girl is on record but the collective wilful amnesia here regarding that time are kinda disturbing.
Nah, she was accused of just dating guys for attention and never actually sleeping with any of them. If anything, she was “prude shamed”.
Yeah, I know everyone likes to hate on her – but she was constantly ripped on for either getting with too many guys – or not being able to keep them.
She put some of the info out there – a good chunk of it. But people tend to take everything the tabloids were assuming as gospel for a lot of those relationships. So yeah, I do think that some of the mocking was unfair. Especially when other celebs are just as bad at oversharing and don’t get the same kind of shit for it for god knows what reason.
At a certain point it seemed like all her break ups kept happening perfectly timed to album releases. I don’t know whether that was intentional or not but there was always going to be talk about that.
Same with the ‘accidental’ house that was bought across from the Kennedy boy. It went from very normal teenage relationships to being a little extreme.
Yup. 100% dead on. It’s bizarre.
Never thought conversation was around her sleeping around but writing about the guys hurting her and putting her business in the street. You’re young, sure date. And she did. But to claim victim when you recorded 3-4 songs about failed love and how these boys broke your heart invites criticsm just on volume alone. Also she was pretty critical herself. Of Camille Belle and a host of women.
I see the problem here is her generation – self serving, all about me… generation. Cant see beyond themselves. We’ve created monsters who pretend they’re innocent.
Boy that house was uptight, over planned and the awards placed in every photo op spot… speaks to her ego. Y’all can keep that. No thanks.
Seems unfair to castigate an entire generation based on one girl’s perpetual victim status
“We’ve created monsters who pretend they’re innocent.”
I don’t think this reflects the current, or any specific generation in particular, but I just wanted to say this is a beautiful piece of wordplay.
I’d care more if she didn’t write slut shaming songs. Ask Camilla Belle how she feels about Taylor whining about being slut shamed.
This exactly Naya. You should be her PR coach.
this. people love to hate her, but there was a lot misogyny towards her.
She’s ridiculous. For starters, she was the one doing an awful lot of slut shaming via her lyrics and videos and statements. Secondly, her image, even now when her day to day wear shows more skin than most of her peers show on stage and she’s grinding with oiled up guys for performances, is of the nice, wholesome, respectable girl you can take your under 10’s to see. Thirdly, no one ever cared how many people she dated. It was the turning one week flings into epic romances, the blind item songs, the pap strolls, the overwroughtness of it all. She’s the one who made a huge spectacle of every single relationship.
Look at Rihanna. Dated/slept with a lot of famous/semi-famous guys, and hasn’t acknowledged most of that publicly. No one says she can’t keep hold of a man, because nothing suggests she was trying to keep any of those guys, rather the opposite. Taylor on the other hand publically behaved like a creepy stalker, wrote ode after ode to men she literally spent a matter of days together with, and tried to gain sympathy by sharing her ‘heartbreaks’. No one was slut shaming her. Crazy shaming her sure, but since I don’t think she’s actually mentally imbalanced, just over-indulged, that can only be a good thing.
If anything she got a huge pass as far as slut-shaming goes. She dated more guys than a lot of her peers, but because she behaved like a childish love-sick loon instead of a normal young woman enjoying sex, she got to remain every parents favourite pop star, while other pop stars with similar romantic histories or even much less eventful histories, got called vulgar and trashy and whores. Because she was a creepy creep who couldn’t admit to herself that a weekend with some random her PR people set her up with wasn’t a great love story, she got sympathy and a few gentle jokes where other more well adjusted women got called terrible things and had parents organising boycotts and protests.
Yes!
Taylor you need to learn the difference between playing the victim and being one. You are old enough and smart enough. You got so much (deserved) sympathy for the Kanye lyric but then you go and say stuff like this. You chose to make the backbone of your songwriting career revolve around your relationships, including shaming females that your exes chose to date and playing the “I’m different from other girls, therefore I’m better ” role. This lack of self awareness for how you have fed into the shame game is one of the reasons you are feeling backlash from the public.
your last paragraph is absolutely true and a good perspective. she actually got away with more than others and was constanly seen as the victim but in all her relationships she was the one selling out the guys without their consent and she was also the bigger star, she was the one with power.
Taylor is forever the victim. Even when people are on her side or it has nothing to do with her. She still manages to play the victim.
As for Rihanna, who knows how many of those guys she actually slept with. As long as she was seen with them everyone assumed that something happened or was happening. Nicki Minaj was/is slut shamed and called names as well, even though she was with her ex for 12 years and moved on to Meek Mill and has been with him for what 2 years now. Taylor is still treated with kid gloves and people are always quick to defend her.
“Taylor on the other hand publically behaved like a creepy stalker, wrote ode after ode to men she literally spent a matter of days together with, and tried to gain sympathy by sharing her ‘heartbreaks’.”
EXACTLY! I always say this. People made fun of her because she was ridiculous! She made these dramatic songs about #lovesocruel and her longest relationship was like, 4 weeks! Nobody even believed she’d had sex, so how could people be slutshaming her? She was the perpetual virgin, at least until she got bolt-ons. It’s more like the world was laughing at her understanding of emotional depth and heartache. Like haha, that’s cute, you’ve made an entire album of songs devoted to four guys you dated for a week each.
Remember when she dated Jake Gyllenhaal and she looked like she got dressed in an Anthropologie catalogue? Then she dated Harry Styles and first she was bad Christmas sweater Bridget Jones, then Forever21 rebel after the drama-ridden breakup. Now she’s super adult with Calvin Harris, and she’s showing all the skin except for her bellybutton (so don’t you dare act like she’s not tween appropriate!)
Yeah. I’ll take Rihanna’s non-apology for being herself any day. You know who actually got slut/body-shamed? Miley Cyrus, and she clearly didn’t GAF.
Agree 100%.
Sometimes I wonder if she’s really all about making an image to sell songs to teenagers, or if she’s really that desperate and creepy.
This. She should really learn to look at the positives of her life.
All her singles are about men and relationships yet she had parents gushing about how they like their music for their kids because it’s ‘wholesome’. She’s slut shamed and revenge songed many and got away with it by somehow creating the image that it was okay.
One thing to write songs about your experience, another to basically use your publicity and platform as a way to try and threaten others into being nice to you. The second you don’t praise her you’re the devil. Look at what happened with Tina/Amy’s mild joke and Katy Perry just having a dancer choose to return to her. It became a national topic because Taylor made it that way.
Oh girl, no; just stop talking.
Beyoncé is married and gets slut shamed for singing songs about her husband. Look at what’s written Kesha. Rhianna.Miley Cyrus. Hell-Katy Perry when she was married to Russell Brand.
Taylor still always sees herself as a victim. And she can have allll the seats.
Beyoncé’s songs involve her husband telling her to “eat the cake” in reference to the abuse Tina Turner suffered with her ex-husband, as well as dancing half naked while Jay-Z stands there fully clothed.
Beyoncé deserves all the shame in the world for mocking an abusive relationship.
Beyoncé was always slut-shamed before that song. Ultimately, she can also wear what she chooses because she’s a grown woman and she shouldn’t be shamed and mocked for it. Someone explained the Anna Mae/Ike Turner thing well in earlier threads.
It’s understandable why someone would be criticized for the Anna Mae lyric (without bringing gender or sexuality into it) but as far as her clothing choices vs. Jay Z’s clothing choices go, does JZ WANT to wear a leotard? Does he even want to wear make-up or try out her hairstyles? Does he want to wear high heels or jewelry? Whether or not Beyoncé wears something shouldn’t be determined by whether or not her husband wants to wear it/ whether or not she can make him wear it. If she wants to get up on stage and sing Halo while wearing an elegant white gown, should she have to make her husband wear it with her too in order to ‘prove’ that their equals?
I saw “eat the cake” mentioned here before. I looked up the lyrics as well as commentary on them. I don’t think it’s quite so cut and dried as referenced here.
Everything about her is so rehearsed, it drives me nuts. She’s like a robot. Also, her Apple letter was the least spontaneous thing she’s ever done, give me a break Taylor. That was planned, and it’s even more obvious now that she is in business with Apple.
She… I… But…
This is dangerous for my blood pressure. When asked what she would say to her 19 year old self, she could have said ANYTHING. She could have said, “Take more chances,” or “Be wise with your heart,” or some sh!t. But SHE brought up the alleged “slut shaming” all by herself. Literally re-victimizing herself over things that happened 5 years ago, completely on purpose, because apparently she will die if she doesn’t get to be the victim every moment that she’s conscious. I cannot stand her. I just cannot. Her music is not good enough to justify the fact that she’s mentally stunted and acts like a brat.
Wow… That vogue cover is awful. AWFUL.
Taylor doesn’t usually bug me but this…no. There are different types of slut-shaming, but the only thing I’ve ever seen close to it is when Tina Fey made a joke for her to stay away from Michael J Fox’s school age son and considering she was equally brutal to Leo and George…it didn’t have that much of an impact. Taylor got ridiculed (and sometimes people were cruel) for her high school antics and blind items, but it generally was not slut shaming.
Rihanna gets slut shamed for unashamedly having an active sex life and wearing skimpy clothes. Miley Cyrus got called disgusting, wh*re, mentally ill, etc for dressing in skimpy, bizarre clothes. It’s one thing to find it ridiculous and attention seeking, another to call her a wh*re or a piece of trash. Beyonce sings about sex with her husband, gets deemed sleazy although men do the same and go further. Even Sienna Miller gets slut-shamed in a way because when she was having a banner year with roles in Foxcatcher, American Sniper, theater, and some other fashion and film stuff…she almost always had her affair brought up even though it was like ten years ago. She made a severe error in judgment but the media and public still defines her by it to this day, meanwhile Jude’s catting around and affair with the baby sitter is almost never brought up. Essentially, women are nearly always defined by their mistake while men are allowed to make mistakes and be multifaceted. Kate Winslet’s been slut shamed for having three kids by three men with papers calling her a 3 x 3.
So, in this case, ugh to Taylor. That comment just really set me off…especially since she slut-shamed others in the past. I’m not saying she was never slut-shamed, but she was nowhere near a lighting rod or dealt with it in the fashion that other female celebrities have.
eww, yuck, vodka and diet coke sounds like the perfect recipe to puke. blechhhhhh!
It’s not that bad, if stuck in a pinch with no other mix. Add a lime and it’s tolerable.
I didn’t see she looked out of place in her house because of her height but I did think her decor is a snooze. I do like the Moroccan style stool though.
I didn’t expect much and that is the way it is with her. Hyper controlled and always contrived. I don’t believe some of her twee answers either.
Obviously it bothers her that she was called out on her dating style, but it was far from slut shaming. I never even think of sex and Taylor at the same time. Get over yourself Tay.
Is it just me or does her house seem tiny? I can’t figure out the footprint of the first floor. I guess there must be many more rooms on the other side of the kitchen.
I find her annoying, twee, and then adorable and smart. I think it really is true that celebrities stop maturing at the age they become famous. I have a feeling she will remain teen-like forever.
Sorry, but I love her and thought the 73 Q’s was great. She is awesome to her fans, she is professional on tours, and she isn’t afraid of being ambitious. I don’t get the hate–for example, I think it’s fairly obvious that she’s being facetious when she says she’s “spontaneous” and therefore I thought the line was hilarious instead of grating.
She does get slut-shamed. Not so much the “she’s sleeping around” shame but the “she can’t hold a man because she’s crazy” shame. Even in this post, there’s a snarky line with “I bet she would have preferred an engagement ring, just sayin’.” I truly don’t get the hate.
I don’t either. Maybe we’re fortunate to not be so easily angered or annoyed.
But that’s not slut shaming. That’s criticism. There’s a huge difference. She has never been largely called a slut. Which is “slut shaming”. She’s received tons of criticism for sure. Tell her 19 yo self how to manage criticism without revenge lyrics i could see that being advice. But criticism about her bringing attn to her dating life, which she encouraged with her music, invited criticism. She thought it would only bring criticism to the guys. And was shocked that some turned it on her. Because relationships, failed or otherwise take two parties… So when you put your business in the street – don’t get mad when the general public evaluates her songs, pap pic dates, and draws their own conclusion. The reason she gets more critique is because she constantly plays both victim and wage warfare with someone.
No, saying a woman can’t keep a man because she is mentally unbalanced is definitely a form of slut-shaming.
See Lewinsky, Monica–painted as a bimbo, a stalker, and a “narcissistic looney tune.” Or, you can read up on the long history of making women seem crazy (due to our hysteria-causing wombs) as a way to discredit their agency.
Her Songs are mostly her shrieking shrilly at your tympanum .Bloody hypocrite Her video songs , lets see-
1. picture to burn = homophobia also slut shaming the girl in the truck making out with the boy.
2. teardrops on my guitar= blames girl for snatching her lovey dovey from her.
3.You belong with me= slut shaming with lyrics as well as visuals.
4. Better than revenge compares her latest victim as a toy, calls girl nasty things.
But she will fade away into oblivion when some teen popstar becomes the next thing
I really think we need to retire slut shamed except for when it really happens ala Monica Lewinksy type situation. I swear now days everything is called slut shaming and it isn’t sometimes people are just questioning behavior or in a lot of cases with Taylor older wiser people were trying to give her advice- based on their experience.
I really can’t with this anymore-slut shaming is a real thing, and when it happens for real it has serious and dangerous consequences to trivialize it with people questioning celebrities behaviors is insane.
i don’t know anything about this kid except what i learn through the media. i do know she reverberates in my unwilling psyche as a representation of all things white and rich. she is an it girl. and i don’t like it girls. to be slut shamed is to take a healthy complex woman and reduce her to her sexuality and then to shame her about it. this kid is not complex nor is she a slut. as i read it she dated a bunch of guys and seemed to be kind of dopey about it. she seemed to be dragged under the bus of romanticism. i teen romantic shamed her. that’s all i got.
I’m just here for the cat. The whole time I was like “show us the face!!”
SHE was slut shamed?
That’s fucking rich, considering what her 19/20 year old self was writing/singing about Camilla Belle. What a hypocrite.
She has a lovely home..very comfy. She’s the most popular and famous young woman right now so I’m not surprised. Stay strong Swifty!
oh please, “haters gonna hate” is a high school mentality. In real world slut shaming is a thing , which this 26 year old woman is trivialising. you know who gets slut shamed on everyday bases girls like me and you. she is no malala fighting , braving and representing our gender for equality rights. She basically wrote song against an actress calling her being known ” for things she does on mattress”
she is a hypocrite.
I admire her business skills but hate her victim mentality.
Tay Tay has no problem with slut shaming when she’s one doing the shaming. She’s a hypocrite.
I thought the 73 questions video clip was very cute. I don’t get the hate for that interview. She’s allowed to feel what she felt with that one answer.
Nicole Kidman’s is a favorite of mine because of her amazing country home they shot it in in Australia. And I love Sarah Jessica Parker’s video clip also and was surprised by the unassuming nature of her brownstone.
Taylor’s house looks like a cozy house that is comfortable and not pretentious.
She sounds very insecure and is someone that needs to be told constantly how pretty she is or how great musician she is too. It must be exhausting to be part of ‘her squad’ or family even I reckon.
Has any one watched season 2 of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt? Episode 9 references Taylor’s ”You know there’s a special place in hell for women…..” It is gold and spot on! I love Tina Fey. You have to watch to realise who they are shading.
Her love life was a huge gossip topic for a while there… while perceptions may vary, I can absolutely believe it FELT like slut-shaming to her. Who are we to say what it seemed like to get a million questions about boyfriends from her perspective?
She knows what slut shaming is, she’s done it enough time to know the definition of the term. Camilla Belle ring a bell?
This is her experience. She feels she’s been slut shamed. Her experience is valid.
Just because one FEEEEEELS something, doesn’t necessarily make it reality. If her perceptions are born from a giant victim complex (not unlikely), then her experiences aren’t all that valid.
It’s not valid just because she thinks it’s true.
There’s a woman in my office who hasn’t gotten a promotion in decades while the men (it’s a mostly make industry) underneath her keep rising up. She genuinely thinks it’s gender discrimination. Everyone else knows it’s because she’s a barely functioning alcoholic whose only kept her job because she’s exactly the type of person who’d sue, and even though she’d lose, no one can be bothered to deal with it.
Her decor was interesting to me to put it nicely. Some things I liked, others I didn’t like her sink and faucet situation. I like that she’s finally letting us know about her money hungry ways. That’s very sweet of her
She should meet me. Come on,Tay. You know you didn’t hate the attention.
Can’t believe I just watched 9-minutes of Taylor Swift talking, but I love everything to do with real estate, home decor, gardens etc. and her house looks great. The Martian of all movies is the one that made her cry the most? The subject matter is sad, but it was written in a pretty comedic fashion, not as a tearjerker. I don’t like mixing coke with alcohol at all. My aunt always drinks red wine with coke, which makes me wanna puke and my cousin always mixes whisky with coke. Vodka/ diet coke sounds horrible. And surprising as her drink of choice. She seems more like Appletini, Sangria or Mimosa kind of girl.
She took high school antics on a national level and is unhappy that she was mocked for it. That’s part of the maturity you’re supposed to form the second you decide you want to be famous. You realize that some of the outlets normal teenagers have will stop being available to you.
If a regular teenage girl wants to call her ex-boyfriends new gf a slut she has a platform as big as the school. A few of her friends will sympathetically agree, many others will roll their eyes and the drama exists only on that level. Taylor took the moaning over a barely formed relationship on a national stage. Instead of sobbing over her locker she wrote hate-songs referencing evil witches who stole her boyfriend for the radio. Instead of ignoring and disliking a competitor in class she created a whole music video squad (many of whom have admitted they weren’t particularly close before she invited them to do the music video) to bash someone just for having a dancer leave her tour. To say nothing about her utter lack of a sense of humor.
I don’t see Joseph Trembley or other young stars throw tantrums on the red carpet even if they’re the prime age for it because they know that’s not acceptable. Taylor threw a tantrum lasting years and we’re all supposed to applaud her for it.
100%… My only and main issue with Taylor will always be – GROW UP & stop acting so immature. Very mean-spirited girl. Be the bigger person Taylor.
Was Camilla belle the only girl she slut shamed or has she shamed more than just camilla?
She “slut shamed” john mayer but he had it coming from the get go! oh yes in the video of you belong with me lyrics goes like : she wears high heels i wear t shirts she is something something and i am something something, in this video she is the ultimate Madonna dressed in white virginal clothes and the other one wears slutty clothes.
Regina george indeed!
Some people love to play the victim ALL THE TIME. Her life seems pretty amazing. Also, you’re a celeb so of course people are going to be interested in who you’re dating. Especially since you never hid it and was gladly pap’d with every guy you dated…oh and then wrote hit songs about them ALL.
Where are the cats.
…I feel like she’s the only woman in her industry who is NOT slut shamed…
She has experienced SOME slut-shaming- just not nearly as much as the other pop stars who are women. She and Pink are the least slut-shamed female entertainers out of the ones who aren’t 99% modest because of their body types, races, ages, the fact that they got their starts as regular artists, and the fact that both they and their fans have made it clear that they think Taylor and Pink are somehow ‘above’ those other girls, that their brand of sexuality and not being modest all the time is the only acceptable, non- ‘anti-woman’ way to do it. The combination of all those things makes them palatable.
If someone says anything too you that you don’t like. Say its ___________ shaming.
That’s how it is now. The Kardashains can trash Kris Humpries and all there exes, but as soon as one of those men decide to speak out Its time to cry some type of shaming. Taylor Swift can have a whole career based on writing songs about men who hurt her.
But we can’t comment on it, even if we aren’t calling her a slut or any name.
Ugh no to the white hair and the red red lips. She looks like a vampire.
Vile, insipid cover, but that’s par for the course from this “publication.” Her alleged bolt-ons look atrocious.
I never knew I could yawn so much in such a short period of time. I love surprising myself. Thanks Taylor… for helping me get a good nap in 🙂
Did anyone else notice the ridiculous amount of photoshopping her eyes have undergone on the cover photo? In the video her eyes are so small they look like slits but so big eyed on the cover ! She must be really insecure about her squinty eyes.
Also her pose on the cover makes her look like a praying mantis! The weird limbs and their positions …. Euuuwwww!
Her inflated sense of self is showing.
Some thoughts:
Most of her decor is awful and her house is super cluttered. I hate the wallpaper. If I were her I’d get a place with super high ceilings and it would have great storage and it definitely would not be cluttered full of crap.
The tap in her kitchen is amazing.
I just kept wanting to tell her to STAND UP STRAIGHT!! Her posture is so terrible and she is a beautiful girl. She would look so much better if she had decent posture.
“Get a good lawyer” was a brilliant piece of advice! If only Kesha had been given that advice…
She has a lot of Stuff..
This One has found her identity as a victim, of herself mostly. She must sit around trying to find a way to stay a victim. So over her
