The last time I wrote about Camilla Belle, it was almost a year ago exactly. It was actually in the middle of 2015’s summer drama involving Taylor Swift. Last year, around this time, Taylor overplayed her hand (sound familiar?) and acted like a fool in the middle of Nicki Minaj’s conversation about race, representation and awards shows. Following Swifty’s PR fumble, Twitter went after her and several of Swifty’s enemies came out of the woodwork to laugh and throw shade. Katy Perry even had something explicit to say! And Camilla Belle did too. Belle was one of Taylor’s first nemeses, and Camilla was also the victim of a particularly mean-spirited not-so-blind-item song by Taylor. So what does Camilla have to say at this particular moment of the #KimExposedTaylorParty? Behold!

— Camilla Belle (@CamillaBelle) July 18, 2016
In case you didn’t know… the song Taylor wrote about Camilla was “Better Than Revenge.” “No need for revenge” is a nice callback to that. Go back and re-read the lyrics to that song too. Sounds like character assassination to me!
I do enjoy it when chickens come home to roost, and I do enjoy it when the Mean Girl gets taken down a few pegs. I truly believe that Camilla Belle, Katy Perry, Calvin Harris and Kanye West have earned their right to sit back for a moment and chuckle. Part of the reason why we can be amused now is because we know Taylor will be back too. We’re not laughing at the ultimate downfall of Taylor Swift. She’ll be back, she’ll whine about all of this in a Vanity Fair or Vogue interview, she’ll get to play the victim and talk about how all of these mean people said horrible things about her, an innocent blonde child, and most people will move on. So let’s just enjoy the chuckle for now.

I liked what the way Camilla did that. Subtle, but perfect.
It was definitely a good quote. However, I think all of this # BS and tweets against Taylor ultimately reinforce the bullying and hostility of social media. Ultimately it’s a really bad standard for the younger kids. Taylor may be a mean girl but so is every one else mentioned and to make these types of fights ok on social media is just a bad message.
I agree! The atmosphere of shame and exclusion that exists on all social media platforms is actually kind of gross. “An innocent blonde child.” Made me crack up however. She is an adult. An obscenely rich, spoiled, privileged, successful, adult… She should be able to take some flack every now and then and not act like the sky is falling every time.
Really? Can you explain to me how Camilla, Katy, Joe, Harry, Demi, and Jake are mean girls?
EM – I have to disagree with you. If what everyone is saying about Taylor is considered bullying because it’s on social media, then every single song she wrote is a form of bullying as well. Taylor in so many words called Camilla a whore, on an album that sold millions of copies, and hardly played coy about the fact that it was directed at Camilla. Taylor is the epitome of a bully. Just because she isn’t disclosing all of her snarky songs on twitter doesn’t make it any less horrible.
I agree. Whichever camp you are in agreement with, somebody needs to take the high road here. It is a horrible example for young people. I don’t think there are any innocents but this has gotten very ugly.
this isn’t bullying. this is callout culture and it is used to expose racists, jerks, and bullies
Exposing the truth is now considered bullying just it’s special snowflake Taylor? Yes, they should just release songs calling out Taylor Swift as a fake and a liar, make millions of dollars from it then we can just call it “harmless” entertainment. Just as Swifty does every.single.time.
These people have been personally harmed by her slander and libel. They have interacted with Taylor and know her more than any of us commenting. #thetruthhurts
Oh please. Exposing someone’s lies is bullying? That’s offensive to those who are true victims of bullying.
Taylor’s a privileged white girl who has been playing the victim and cashing in for years. I think those who have felt the brunt of her mean girl tactics deserve to enjoy this moment of transparency.
Sorry, but that’s reaching. I’m with Dani, Original T.C. and Bonzo. Taylor started this herself with her pathological lying, and it’s time for her to face the consequences. She made her bed, now it’s time to lie in it. Poor little Swifty can dish it out, but can’t take it. Well honey, that’s not the way it works. It’s time for her to put on her big girl pants, stop whining and acting like a pre-teen in junior high and own up to what she did. Taylor’s fake little “I’m such an innocent victim and everyone is so mean to me all the time” act isn’t going to work anymore, this girl is calculated and manipulative. She deserves the backlash, it’s been a long time coming. The fact that there are so many other entertainers/actresses saying the same thing about her is very telling. If it were just one or two people, that’s one thing. But it’s a lot more than that, Taylor has victimized a lot more people than she claims have victimized her. The only thing she’s upset about is that her jig is finally up.
I still need more explaining. Why did Taylor diss Camilla? Did Camilla go after somebody Taylor was interested in? What did she do that made Tay Tay write a not-so-blind item song about her?
JJ: Taylor was dating Joe Jonas back in the day for a short time like all of her beaus…then he met Camilla. Soon after he broke up with Taylor by text or something similar. Soon after…..Tay writes Better Than Revenge supposedly about Camilla and how she isn’t what she pretends to be and she does her best work on a mattress…..look up the lyrics. Now Camilla didn’t even know Swift and was really pissed. So her post yesterday was awesome, using Swift’s own words to bite her in the arse. Poor Camilla does need a tad bit of powder on her forehead!
Me too, I see no attack, just people saying things that are true.
Not even Calvin’s tweets could be considered aggressive.
Calvin’s tweets were just pure GOLD. He pulled no punches, and I applaud him for it. Taylor screwed with the wrong people this time, who are not going to take her crap lying down.
wrong reply pls delete
Just criticizing the way someone (especially a powerful person) has gotten away with treating other people or exposing them as a liar when they try to throw you under the bus to save face (which is what it looks like Taylor tried to do to Kanye) isn’t a good example of bullying , being mean, or ‘setting a bad example for the kids’ though. I have a feeling that if the situation were reversed and it was Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, or any other celebrity who’s not considered ‘the classy pop star who we’re ok with kids listening to and looking at, not one of those trashy ones”, this wouldn’t be called mean-girling and bullying. I have no doubt that some of the other comments she and some of the other celebrities involved in this will be getting on social media will be bullying and misogyny though. But just the outing and these comments here aren’t a good example of that.
Thank you, best comment ever. And you’re right, the reaction would be totally different if it were anyone else. Nobody would be calling it bullying then. It’s because it’s Taylor that people are using that excuse, which demeans TRUE BULLYING.
I agree Otaku. The Taylor outers aren’t bullying, but other, random people who are not connected in any real way to any of the key players have been hostile.
Thanks for the list of individuals. Because Katy, Calvin, Kanye, Kim, Camilla, Nicki, Demi, Joe, John, Jake, and Harry can’t all be wrong. They may be wrong about a lot of other things, but probably not about how manipulating she is overall.
ETA: I would Connor to the list, butI don’t ever remember him saying anything about this. Homeboy dipped out like “I’m a Kennedy. I’ll be alright. Girl, bye.”
Was Conor basically a quiet fade out? I remember reading that his father was unhappy about sending the private plane to fetch him and interrupting his schooling.
I love the story of her and Conner trying to crash one of his relatives wedding. The mother of the bride didn’t want Taylor there to distract the guests and told them that, but Taylor still went anyway.
I’ve also heard that after they broke up, Taylor was stalking Conner at some party and his friends were ripping on him for dating her. Ahhhh, memories.
The end with Conor and start up with Harry is somewhat similar to the Calvin/Tom overlap. Harry/Taylor went public in December but then it came out (maybe after their break-up in 2013?) that they’d been quietly seeing each other since September and had been in contact while she was with Conor. Conor/Taylor’s break-up wasn’t announced until the end of October.
I think the Kennedy family wasn’t thrilled about their relationship once they got together and Taylor/Conor crashed the wedding reception against the family’s wishes and called a pap out to do a photoshoot at Conor’s mother’s grave site and then picking him up in a private plane and signing him out of school. I think the reality of the relationship was far different than how they assumed it would be.
I never understood why she seemed sooooo set on cozying up to the Kennedys. If it were the 60s-80s, definitely. 90s… eh less so but JFK Jr was still considered a great catch, but now? Who cares if you’re dating a Kennedy now?
The Connor story I know direct 2nd hand. The just, he had fun. She got super infatuated. He walked away sort of ghosting her and just stopped answering her calls at parties while flirting around. 1 party in particular where it was said Taylor kept calling and he had to answer out of annoyance. Then went back to the fun.
Take that for what you will.
I hope he did drop / ghost her, simply because of how soon it was after losing his mother. He had enough to deal with, besides being a prop in a 1960s summer fantasy.
Before this really blew up I do remember some tv host pointing out the fact that Taylor is the common denominator in all these beefs/feuds. Others were trying to blame others or take a bit of a dig at Taylor without seeming harsh, but she just didn’t care and I loved it.
How does that line from Justified go – if you run into an a**hole in the morning, you ran into an a**hole. If you ran into a**holes all day, you are the a**hole.
From what I can tell – we can all agree that the people involved are petty and immature, right? That said – Taylor gave her approval for the Kanye song and then (probably) changed her mind. Fair enough. But then she lied about it. Not only that, but she dragged him publicly about it (and he is not the first one she did this to). And then it blew up in her face.
What’s interesting to me in this whole sh*tshabang – if I was Taylor Swift, it would make me wonder what am I doing/how am I being that people who I have worked with/socialized with/dated (and I’m not talking about her frenemies and us randoms on the Internet) are cackling like banshees about it. But that would require taking a long, hard look at myself.
Taylor will be fine. She is a young and richer than Croesus. Not to mention white – yes, I totally went there because her director went there and yes, it’s effing gross.
As for the people who are all poor Tom – give me a break! He is a willing participant. He probably didn’t bank on all of it turning this way, but he is still a famew*ore.
@ Blech
Standing ovation! All you said.
Everything you said Blech. Taylor got busted. She’ll bounce back. Tom’s no victim. He chose to be a part of her world.
@Blech you said it perfectly.
Don’t forget Ed Roste of Grizzly Bear. He was basically harassed off Twitter for his words.
I was thinking about Ed’s previous comments yesterday! For me, he’s the most convincing argument that Taylor’s really a terrible person because what on earth did he have to gain from publicly snarking on Taylor? It only hurt him.
Precisely right. IIRC, initially he wouldn’t even say who he was talking about because he was legit scared of what the person he was talking about could do to him. His Instagram from two days ago is funny. Christmas in July.
Yes, let’s spare a thought for the “serious artist” inserting himself into teenage drama as a grown man in his late thirties. Drummed up the most attention his hipster drivel excuse for a band ever got or ever will. He’s just as petty and pathetic as everyone else involved in this farce.
What has Jake said about Taylor? I thought he tries to be pretty low key on the subject of her. Like yes, they dated but that’s as much as he’ll say about it.
I was also wondering about that. Did Jake say something (anything) about Taylor?
I remember him going on Howard Stern and said something, but maybe I’m mixing up people.
Nothing. He actually complimented her on Stern saying she’s a beautiful woman. There were ‘sources’ during their break-up and Taylor also did say during an interview that she called the person that inspired her Red album (sooo Jake, her being coy is annoying) to hear his thoughts and he had good things to say. So Jake knows to keep his mouth shut because she spill anything she can use to sell her music!
Don’t forget the VS model who got taken off the VS show at Swift’s behest for saying that Swift was “great, but didn’t really fit in.”
I remember that being more of a preemptive strike by VS than a demand from Taylor. That could have been the PR spin to it, but I actually believed it when I read they hadn’t re-signed her.
& wasn’t there a singer that was not well known, a guy, who came out and said something about her being unpleasant or manipulative, & she pretty much made him barred from the rest of the music industry?
She wouldn’t dare go after the Kennedy Clan. That is one big group not to mess with. So yes, Conor was left unscathed. What will she write about? I took a teenager out of school to go antiquing?
Well said, HH — they can’t all be wrong, and I believe someone should be exposed if they are deserving of that–if you’re lying to the public, to other people in the business, or creating bad relationships in one way or another, it will all come back to haunt you. We allowed her to become wealthy, famous, but her true colors are showing a wee bit too much, so, of course, people are going to turn on her now.
My favorite part is that while #IStandWithTaylor was trending, there were dozens if not hundreds of tweets with that hashtag saying it was impossible to stand with her since snakes don’t have legs.
lmao
LMAO!
😂
Those lyrics are terrible (in more ways than one). How she’s made so much money from songs like that is puzzling.
They are, and the only thing she has said is that she was 18 when she wrote them, as if at that age you couldn’t be mature enough to know that calling a 16 year old girl a wh-re is horrible.
And it wasn’t like she made a comment somewhere, she actually trashed the girl for a full song.
Wait – what 16 year old girl? Because Camilla is older than Taylor. Was there another girl that got called out in that way in one of her songs?
@Erinn – oh, so a 19-20 year old calling a 22 year old a whore is ok since the girl getting called that isn’t underage? PLEASE.
Swifties or whatever her fans are called, really do the most.
@teacakes – Come on, don’t be that person. Nowhere in Erinn’s comment did she imply that it wasn’t wrong. But calling Camilla Belle 16 when she was 22 is a pretty grave factual mistake and there’s nothing wrong in asking about it.
Thanks Tobbs.
I was asking a genuine question, teacakes. I literally asked if there was another girl getting ripped on or not. Period.
Clearly – since the age was brought up it was being used to make a point. Me asking if this was the same girl (who wasn’t 16) or a different 16 year old girl is in no way me saying “She deserved to be called that because she was of age”. I think it was completely wrong for anyone to have been called that name. End of.
Seriously. SERIOUSLY. You’re quick to generalize all of her supposed “fans”, but you’re the one doing the attacking here.
Hmm. I think Paul Anka was a teenager when he started writing songs. Carole King too. That’s not an excuse to write drivel.
It is quite sickening, right? I’d never read them before–or anything Taylor’s written, for that matter. #NeverHaveBeenNeverWillBeAFan
–TheRealPinky
the lyrics are awful and the music itself is horrible. very juvenile sounding. i only know TS’ main hits, which i think are catchy enough for what they are. i’m so ashamed to have gotten up to speed on all this teenage pop drama by way of the TayTo romance. must get a life… or download Pokemon Go.
Yes. I get the idea that taylor appeals to people visually and her music is just like a side car. I think people who like her feel that her music makes them feel good. Why? I have no idea. Her music makes me feel like an old misanthrope, ready to throttle the next midriff wearing, instagram curated, Ray-bans girl I see.
Taylor did warn us there is a special place in Hell for women who don’t support women, and apparently that place is Twitter.
Those lyrics are the truest representation of Taylor Swift’s personality in her catalogue to date. There are definitely repeating themes in her music, but “Better Than Revenge” seems to be her at her most honest. From her self-perception as the innocent underdog who’ll cut you if you cross her to Taylor as the beautiful/talented girl whose oh so modest she won’t believe you when you tell her (see any acceptance speech she has ever given). With a bit of slut shaming thrown in to make other women think twice before they dare to threaten her confidence with their clothes, sexuality and ability to survive without a squad of females as a buffer to the world.
Ever since that song came out I’ve hoped Camilla Belle would end up with a successful career, unfortunately that doesn’t seem likely at this point. Watching while the Queen of Tweens makes bank with “she’s an actress, but she’s known better for what she does on the mattress” cannot be a good feeling, but to my knowledge Belle has kept pretty quiet over the whole thing. Can’t blame her for sitting back and enjoying the show.
Yup she tried to smear Tina Fey & Amy Poehler after they mocked her at the Golden Globes. The special kind of hell sentence came from a Vanity Fair article. I noticed she wouldn’t dare write a song about those two! :p Tina and Amy would come after her if she did.
I guess this is my punishment for the day — Driving home, the musical masterpiece titled Never, Never, Ever, Ever (However it’s phrased) Getting Back Together came on the radio. Yes, parts of the melody are catchy. The lyrics are so juvenile (even more so than I realized), and it sounds very auto-tuned.
I remember Taylor as a country singer, and I really couldn’t get the popularity then (other than being young, which seems to garner attention).
Lol. I am glad people are getting their jabs in. Taylor isn’t the WORST PERSON EVER, but she is an a**hole and has been treating people like crap and throwing them under the bus for years. Payback can be a bitch. I hope when she regroups and comes back people remember that this is who Taylor is and stop treating her with kid gloves. She can’t be an innocent perfect child when people call her out and a shrewd business woman when she is f*cking people over. She needs to pick one and own it.
I’m with you Blue.
The problem with a pile-on is that now the tide will start to shift in the other direction with people feeling sorry for Swifty. She’s crafted her image so well that people will continue to find excuses for her. All she has to do is ride this out.
Taylor will never ever going to be friends with a lot of people…
Lol, don’t kill me please, I still like Taylor and you are right she will come back again, I mean If KristenStewart can cheat and still won awards then taylor will be fine. But for now am enjoying the show.
I do too. She was an asshole about this Kanye thing and I hope she apologizes and lets the matter drop. But who hasn’t made a mistake or fudged the truth once in their life? She is still very young and leads a very sheltered life which probably makes her even younger, emotionally speaking. If I had to guess, this will be a big learning experience for her and I hope she owns up to her mistake and grows from it. I still like her music a lot and will buy her next album.
Lol, people will be calling Swifty still very young, even when she’s middle aged.
Her victim shtick has really worked, she will forever be naive, innocent, fragile, blonde, and always, always YOUNG. Nobody has ever been as young as Taylor, for as long as Taylor.
What does being blonde have to do with anything? LOL. She’s 26. Kim is 36 and Kanye is 39. They DO have ten years of life experience on her and (hopefully) a more mature perspective because of that. Plus she’s surrounded by bodyguards and people she has to pay for advice. She lives a pretty cloistered life compared to most 26 year olds. How many people are really going to tell the person signing their paycheck that they are flat out in the wrong?? Like I said, she WAS in the wrong in this case and I hope she apologizes. But I don’t think this will hurt her career long term, nor do I think it should.
Taylor’s buddy Joseph Kahn brought up blonde victims in his tweets, I mentioned it because also got with “young” and “victim” it’s a word that is associated with Taylor, by Team Taylor.
Made a mistake or fudged the truth *once in their life?* This weirdo’s relationship with the truth is such that she should be running for President. I hope she apologizes to every. person. she has ever thrown under the bus for fame, money, and the attention that she mistakes for love. Then I will think about warming up to her. The fact that you enjoy listening to her doing it is pretty much moot.
Joseph Kahn’s comments about the situation were so gross on so many levels.
No one in this drama seems emotionally mature past age 14 (with no intended insult to true teens), but to consider her ‘very young’ and ‘very sheltered’ seems a stretch. She’s been a legal adult for nearly a decade.
Interesting how some paint her as a brilliant, smart person, but when things go sideways, she’s so young and just not experienced in worldly matters.
I don’t think having sex with someone who’s married is worse than lying to all your fans, throwing people under the bus left and right and playing victim your entire career. Kristen never trashed Rupert or his wife, and vice versa, really, so that point is moot.
@akua: ITA, Taylor Swift will bounce back. That’s the world we live in — 15 minutes of fame and 15 minutes of shame. As for Kristen Stewart — she and her situation were worlds apart from TS. Stewart comes across as awkward in interviews and you can tell she’d rather not do press. Stewart got pilloried because of WHO she cheated on — Sparkles Pattinson. In the process she trashed the dreams of TwiHards everywhere, LOL! And it was also the stupid way she got caught — necking in public with her married director who was also the father of two kids. Stewart attempted damage control right away and publicly apologized. Swifty is very ego centric. She never apologizes for anything, always plays the victim and is a famewhore extraordinaire. So of course her l-o-n-g list of enemies and people in general are cackling and rubbing their hands together with glee in seeing her taken down a few pegs.
As for TommyAnne Hiddleston, he’s a 35 year old man who’s been touted as super intelligent and a serious actor. Too bad he has the common sense and integrity of a flea. He totally bought into the famewhoring — even trotting out his Mother, sister and niece. Everyone now knows who he is — for all the wrong reasons.
Yea and I don’t remember Camilla ever getting an apology either? Funny how everyone seems to apologize for taking taylor down a peg but she never apologizes for the crap things she does.
Camila didn’t do anything except be the girl that Taylor’s boyfriend dated after her.
So….
Just sit back and accept it. Taylor finally got caught in a massive lie after blaming everyone and their sister. She’s an awful person, always has been.
And even when she does good things she makes sure everyone gets 10 pictures of her grinning while doing it, horse teeth flashing.
Not sure why you’re replying to me when I agree
Belle’s still a beautiful woman. Wears fashion well.
Zero screen presence or charisma though.
She was Kate Bosworth, before Kate Bosworth.
Though that picture up top is the worst I’ve ever seen her look, which is still ten times better than me at my best though lol. I just want to hand her some blotting paper and suggest she go to the powder room. Maybe a few bobby pins too because I don’t know why her hair is waving to me from behind her head.
Is it too soon to say I’m over it already?
These people are all middle schoolers, basically. Camilla Belle only makes it into headlines these days when she gets involved with Taylor’s drama. I feel like clinging to attention from a song that was written almost 10 years ago is a bit sad, especially since it was hurtful to Camilla. Why keep riding the coattails of someone you clearly don’t like and who embarrassed you? You’d think she’d want to distance herself from it.
I believe she has distanced herself more than she should, she should’ve sued Taylor. And I don’t think this is “riding the cottails” of the girl who attacked her so viciously.
I don’t think so. What’s wrong with pointing out the fact that Taylor has been like this for years? She dished it out to Camilla and her exes, but can’t take what people are saying about her? I don’t see much difference with what Camilla is doing vs. what Taylor has been doing with the Kanye situation from 2009.
Wait so she’s riding coattails but you’ve been bending over backwards to defend taylor for the same thing. So which is it? You’re defending Taylor over Kanye using the B word but you’re excuses taylor for calling camilla a sl*t in a song?
Man you Swiftie stans are something else
they bought the whole “poor poor innocent white baby girl taylor”!
I didn’t write anything like that, Alex. I think what Taylor wrote about Camilla is disgusting and never said otherwise. I only pointed out that it’s strange for Camilla to keep wanting to get in on the headlines involving Taylor, since she clearly shouldn’t want anything to do with someone who said such nasty things about her in a song. I personally wouldn’t want to get involved in the drama of someone who hurt me so long ago. She just has a habit of jumping into the Swift drama whenever it comes up on Twitter. She’s perfectly entitled to enjoy watching someone who treated her poorly go down for something else.
I’ve also stated repeatedly that I think Taylor is in the wrong in the Kanye situation, so please don’t insinuate otherwise just because I have defended her over other issues. If simply not hating her with a passion makes me a stan, ok.
You know, for a while there, Camilla Belle was a legit up-and-comer, a genuine talent poised to break out. Then Taytay wrote her victimy, hateful, b-tchy “song”, and Camilla isn’t getting roles no more.
If I were Camilla, I’d write a feckin’ BOOK about Taylor, never mind a tweet.
when was that? I guess I missed it.
She seems nice but a great actress? Not really.
A “legit up-and-comer”? Are you having a laugh?? She’s “no longer getting roles” (you make it sound as if she were an Oscar contender) because she’s a crap actress.
I think Taylor’s song ligitimately hurt Camilla’s career.
Did it really? If that’s the case, she’s welcome to hold on to it for as long as she pleases. It sounds weird to me that a song about her could destroy her career (especially since to me it only looks Taylor look petty, not Camilla), but that’s quite sad if that’s the case, and she deserves her time to enjoy watching this play out.
K.C. – the song basically calls her a whore. ‘She’s an actress better known for what she does on the mattress’ can also be taken in the context that she sleeps with people for roles, and now if she stars in a new movie, it’s because she might have slept with someone for it, and no director/producer/agent wants to take that kind of hit.
She’s worked relatively consistently since, though. There is a hell of a lot of casting couch assumptions in that business, and it hasn’t stopped people from working.
She doesn’t have a great career, but the only real gap was from 2001 – 2005 which was before the song. But her career was never spectacular before that either. She has in that 10,000 BC which was a giant flop, and I feel like that kind of thing is going to affect your career a lot more than a pop song.
I can smell Eau de Desper here.
Kaiser you are right about the innocent blonde girl that is the victim and thinks she has been bullied. This is Taylor to a tee. Remember her Tina and Amy comment because they dared to make a joke at her expense..?
Oh and Camilla I just want to oil blot your face with a tissue in that pic. To shiny.
As she should. No lies spotted.
She’ll snake it off, snake it off! 🐍
You’ve won all of social media for the day.
–TheRealPinky
Okay, that was funny. Mean-funny, but very funny. 😀
Possible lyrics for the anticipated “They Called Me a Snake” song —
They called me a snake, snake, snake.
My great beauty they can’t take, take, take.
They’re just so jelly, jelly, jelly.
While I’m watchin’ the telly, telly, telly
Eatin’ takeout with my English beau,
Who’s gonna be with me until I have a show.
Mean ole people trying to tear me down,
Recorded by a dude everyone says is a clown.
I’m just a sheltered kid in a woman’s body,
Except when I’m a brilliant business mind,
Trying to make the world think I’m kind, kind, kind.
They called me a snake, snake, snake.
Gonna leave ’em in my wake, wake, wake.
Got my English boy in a loves me vest.
You can jump in the sea if your name is West…
Eh. I think Camilla herself keeps bringing this up to keep her name relevant. She sounds like a middle schooler saying “me too, me too!” No one cares about her unless she’s inserting herself in the middle of Taylor Swift drama, which makes her motivation questionable, imo.
lol what
Taylor Swift cared enough to write and release that ‘song’, and her stans care enough to be attacking Camilla to this day. Face it, your fave is a lying, vindictive manipulator….and it’s lots of fun seeing all of you continue to get played.
Really you think Taylor is worse than Kim? I don’t care for Taylor but Kim”s life is built on lies . I wish they would all go away .Not team Taylor just really loath Kim
Teacakes didn’t mention Kim, so it’s hard to say if she thinks Taylor is worse than her or not. Even if part of Camila’s motives for commenting on Taylor are about drawing attention to herself and part of her motives are about what was done so what? All celebrities seek attention. If Taylor didn’t want Camila to be able to play that situation up for attention, she shouldn’t have made a misogynistic, reputation-damaging song about her in the first place. When these celebrities decide to be problematic assholes to other people publicly, they open themselves up to having those people use their antics to promote themselves. (I do think it’s not just about attention though. Camila was probably really bothered by what Taylor did. Why wouldn’t she be? We all know about people’s attitudes toward women and sex and how people act on the internet.)
No one cares about her? Try telling that to Taylor’s stans who still go after this woman to this day. For years Taylor’s social media stans would make sure gross hashtags about Camilla would trend on Camilla’s birthday and they’d @ Camilla on social media to make sure they knew it was about her. She ignores it. Except for 2 vague tweets/retweets in 6 years. I wouldn’t exactly call that inserting herself for relevance given what she’s put up with just for dating a guy in 2009 that Taylor also dated.
Hmmm, a bad week for Taylor. She is mega rich, on holiday in Australia and has Tom Hiddleston coming home to her every night with food, wine and probably dancing for her dressed as Loki. I wish my week would go that badly just once!
I know, it really is all first world problems.
Change Tom Hiddlestone to Aidan Turner and I will be jealous. Tay can have that pasty white boy with unsexy hairline.
Le sigh. I’m with you.
Count me in with Aidan Turner, any day of the week over Tom Hiddleston. Taylor was gyped on getting a good-looking British bloke.
Part of me is slightly alarmed at how “big” this is getting because Taylor is going to get so.much.mileage. out of this. I can only imagine the interviews…unless she’s self-aware enough to realize part of this is due to many people getting tired of her perpetual victim act.
People keep saying this but it puzzles me as to how they think she will spin this. I am a pretty big Taylor fan and even I don’t think this is spinnable. She needs to apologize, admit that she made a mistake and was in the wrong in this situation, and then the matter drop for good. It’ll only hurt HER reputation to keep bringing this up in the future. The faster people forget about this, the better off she is in the long run.
It’s not that puzzling, come on. In a few months, she’ll be talking about being a “lightning rod for a national conversation about victim blaming”, she’ll do a few victimy interviews, and write a few godawful “introspective” songs, and the world will realise how wrong we all were to pile on Taylor, how strong she was throughout her slings and arrows, and how, really, She is still very young. SO YOUNG.
Oh, and she will insert herself into any shading or Twitter spat, and call it bullying, and stand up for the victim. So everyone can see how she empathises with the victim, and so everyone will start to equate “Taylor” with “victim” once again.
give it a few months and most people will have moved on. Her teenage fans will always buy taylors victim image however and taylor can cry and wail about how mistreated she was by the mean people!
I read on a different site that her record sales have actually gone up in the last few days. Taylor Swift definitely isn’t over. Controversy is mutually beneficial to all parties involved. The Kardashians ratings were their worst ever a few weeks back I’m sure this has helped everyone involved If you really want her to go away stop talking about her.
I saw that too. Like 4 of her albums ended up re-entering the top 100 chart since this started. Given that, she really doesn’t have any incentive to make sure it goes away anytime soon.
I have to say that tweet is so good that I’m going to save it because it’s so true.
With Swift it seems her friends come down to models and people like Gomez. Every other person who’s interacted with her on a professional or personal level who isn’t a bestie seems to have a negative story to tell or a less than admirable response to her.
When Pharrel is favoriting “I don’t phuck with Taylor” tweets and Zendaya is favoriting tweets about “She’s lucky she got away when she did” then there’s something about you as a person that can’t just constantly be a victim to everyone else.
Camille, Katy, Harry, Calvin and a few others have all had their reputation trashed for Taylor’s professional benefit and for Taylor about a decade worth of trashing others all came to a head with Kim’s snapchat.
Which doesn’t speak so good about Snakelor. That horrible tweet Selena did in the middle of trying to defend her, about not using #BlackLivesMatter did more harm than good.
Yeah, I thought it was tacky and silly how Selena and Chloe tried to use current, serious, but completely unrelated real word issues as a tool to deflect from their friend’s dishonesty being exposed.
I never got the whole situation with Camilla Taylor and Joe. Did Camilla hook up with Joe when he was with Taylor or did he hook up with her after he broke up with Taylor?
Joe dumped Taylor for Camilla. Then Swift wrote the song implying it was because Camilla was good in the sheets, her usual bs nonsense. Camilla wasn’t pleased and said she had never met this person and how dare she…….it was like in 08, long time ago. But like they say he who laughs last laughs best.
Taylor played it like she got left for Camilla, but Camilla and Joe actually started up a few weeks after he dumped Taylor. That’s not enough of a sob story though. She only started playing up the Camilla thing after she’d got every bit of mileage over being dumped by voicemail that she could.
Even if she had been ‘cheated’ on, that relationship with Joe was like all her others before Calvin Harris, they were only ‘together’ for a handful of days. Any normal person would consider that an extremely casual relationship and not be shocked and appalled at the fact they they aren’t the only person in the picture.
So basically like if Swiddles broke up today barely two months after meeting and Tom went ahead to write a song implying that Taylor is only with her new dude because he does things in bed that no “wholesome” man would do.
This girl has such bunny boiler traits, Tom must be stupid to even go near this.
Oh snap Camilla. Considering Taylor basically called you a slut in her beautiful little love song. Karmas a bitch Taylor, so deal with it. She will be back, of course, but since the disclosure/exposure of her evil twin, she may not do the happy dance in the first row with Abigail. On a bright note, she will probably go into hiding for awhile, either that or marry that Tom person to change the headline.
I’m actually not sure she will come back after this. I mean, she got caught in a lie all these people who have “been mean to her”, Camillus, Katy, Kanye, calvin have been right this whole time. The common denominator here is swift and her fakeness. Not sure people can take her seriously anymore. So funny that all this came out around the ridiculous tom relationship. Will he stay? His career was already looking bad but now! SO BAD!
She will. But once her fans grow up, it’s over.
How old are her fans by now goddangit? lol 🙂
So Taylor called Camilla out in a song for stealing her boyfriend from under her nose and she was offended? Why? Did she or did she not do it?
Taylor’s revenge fantasies are petty, just like her, but these people that are now quick to tweet about her downfall look like frustrated assholes, unlike Kim K that looks Boss, she had a plan and she executed it. No BS. If any of the other ‘supporters’ were smart, they would have stopped Taylor’s legend a long time ago. But they were not. Kim K was.
And there is no such thing as a song victim. Songs don’t kill people, on the contrary, they make people and what they did, live forever.
Songs ruin reputation. reputation is important for an acting career. Taylor is wrong for this song especially with her feminism “special place in hell for unsupportive women” BS. I know she was young then, but the bitch has been evil for a long time.
Taylor called her a whore in a song. If Camilla has no right to be offended same with Tay lor then. She has no right to be offended at Kanye’s song.
Alternatively, they make a tarnished reputation and what said person has been accused of live forever, and therein lies the problem.
Taylor/Joe broke up. Camilla/Joe started dating a few weeks after the Taylor/Joe break-up. Taylor turned around and accused Camilla of stealing Joe from her in the grossest way in a song. Taylor basically called Camilla a wh*re only known “for the things she does on the mattress.” Even today Camilla still gets harassed on social media by some of Taylor’s more ride or die stans. Taylor also publicly trashed Joe for cruelly dumping her in a 27 second phone call and played the victim but she’ll rise above and barely remember him when a better love comes along. Later on it came out the only reason the phone call was so short was because Taylor hung up on Joe and then wouldn’t take any of his return calls.
To add something to all the comments pointing out the timeline: even if Joe Jonas dumped her for camilla Belle (and it doesn’t seem like he did), it’s still completely unaccaptable and awful to write such a song about her, saying “she’s better known for the things she does on the matress”
This is the only time that anyone will care about Belle. I’m not defending Swift, she made her own bed. I’m just saying that I don’t care about this deeply untalented actress who couldn’t get a decent role if her life depended on it because everyone knows that she isn’t a good actress. I don’t want to hear from every Z-lister whom was wronged by Swift.
Wow, so because you don’t care about Ms. Belle, she has no right to have a voice in her own mistreatment? She has no right to vindication after having been summarily trashed when she was but 16 years old? She doesn’t have enough talent to be treated like a human being? Ok, just so I’m clear on what you’re saying.
She wasn’t 16 when she was trashed. She is 3 years older than Taylor. And even though no names were mentioned in the song, it was clear who it was about and it was kind of an asshole thing to do. You want to write a “revenge” song? Great. But think twice before recording it. I think Camilla has every right to still feel upset about it.
@paranormalgirl, thanks for the age clarification. Still awful, but at least she wasn’t a minor at the time. Small mercies.
“She’s not a saint / And she’s not what you think / She’s an actress, whoa / She’s better known / For the things that she does / On the mattress, whoa.
Spoken like a true feminist!
yeah! sisterhood!
Taylor has a special place in hell.
@ Rocío
ahahah a pity that Taylor didn’t trademark that sentence…the money she could have done by now!
and she has since acknowledged it was inappropriate. I’m not sure if she still sings it in her concerts – I would hope not.
role model #1 right there
JUSTICE FOR CAMILLA!!
I love how the Swiftlunatics are continuing to harp on Camilla’s lesser celebrity status…. like oh yeah, it’s TOTALLY ok to call someone less famous than you a slut and then say “I was young” to excuse your shitty actions.
I’ve seen Camilla Belle acting a copuple of times and while she’s not a very talented actress, she’s ok and since the infamour Taylor’s song she went missing. I guess Taylor blacklisted her. Regina George in sheeps clothes.
Oh and to all the Swifties whining about how Camilla is petty for holding a grudge even now and Swift was “young” when she wrote that song.. …
please remember, you are fans of a woman who set out to do a hatchet job on a woman for dating her ex FOUR YEARS after she broke up with him. At age 24. So much for ~young~.
She has also been dragging out the Kanye fued for 6 or 7 years.
HoneyBeeBlues, Belle can say whatever she likes, it’s a free country. As the kids say, “drag” Taylor Swift until the cows come home. Swift does deserved to be dragged. I just don’t care too much, I’m not going to pretend I’m a fan of some awful screen presenceless actress because of the whole Swift is a liar situation.
You weren’t referencing anything to do with a talent-related situation. You stated, blatantly, that because you don’t find her talented, she has no right to defend herself, and that is an obscene statement. And you made it.
It just dawned on me that Taylor has never written a song about Kanye upstaging her at the VMAs, which is arguably the most dramatic thing the public has ever seen happen to her. I wonder why? That’s odd, right? Curious she hasn’t capitalized on that more.
Maybe she has and I just haven’t heard of it, but I imagine it would be talked about in the media if she did.
“Innocent” is about Kanye and the VMAs. She performed it at the 2010 VMAs.
Yep.
“It’s okay, life is a tough crowd
Thirty two and still growin’ up now
Who you are is not what you did
You’re still an innocent
Time turns flames to embers
You’ll have new Septembers
Every one of us has messed up too
Lives change like the weather
I hope you remember
Today is never too late to
Be brand new”
Sounds like a nice song by her revenge-lyric standards, unless there’s sarcasm there.
Yeah she let everyone know that she believes Kanye still deserves to to go heaven even though he ran up on stage during her vma speech.
She even used the videoclip of the moment before she started to sing. She wore a white dress and she was barefoot. It’s on YT. She’s pathetic.
She definitely used it to her advantage so her claim in that note that she has been trying to dissociate herself from that event is also a straight up lie.
@Artemis
Don’t waste your time trying to educate K.C he/she is always going ti find some way to make Taylor a victim.
I’d like to think I’ve been relatively objective about his Taylor-Kanye situation and have placed appropriate blame on Taylor for getting herself into this situation (which includes approving a song she seemingly wasn’t ok with, smearing Kanye in a public speech, and then lying about the fact that he approached her about the song).
I like aspects of her and enjoy some of her music, but I’m not defending her whatsoever in regard to this situation and really don’t like being painted that way. I never talk bad about anyone on here and try to be respectful and fair in my viewpoints. I really enjoy the conversation on CB, but if it’s going to be held against me that I sometimes like Taylor and therefore must always be a super stan in every situation regardless of what I actually write, I think it’s time to bow out of the conversation. If my actual words aren’t being read, there’s no point in me adding to the conversation.
Thank you for the month of fun, ladies and gents. 🙂 I’ve enjoyed it.
“Mean” is also about Kanye and has a line about how he’ll also be mean, a liar and pathetic.
Sadly I actually like ‘Innocent’ not going into the Kanye aspect. It’s a beautiful song, shame she also didn’t learn lessons from it.
I think Mean is about the music critic who didn’t like her live performance with Stevie Nicks at the Grammys (because she sang off key –which she actually did) and said so in a review so she turned around and wrote Mean. Name calling the critic, saying she’d be living in a big city and a huge success and all the writer would have is being washed up, sitting in a bar, drunk and whining about how Taylor can’t sing. Mean is ridiculously harsh. No wonder no one in the music business press will criticize even her most off key live performances. They don’t want Mean 2.0 coming at them.
Wow! Those lyrics about belle are so misogynistic, never knew. Why have all people who defended her because feminism never mentioned this?
probably bc she was like 17 when she wrote it.
That’s what she says but she was 19 when her and Joe dated so lies, more lies. In higschool it would still be a big insult to call another girl a name based on her (perceived) sexuality. At 19, you would definitely know that is crossing a line. And Taylor put that out there for general consumption because she got dumped by her boyfriend of 2 months. Crazy much?
Also, that phonecall was discussed so many times by Taylor in detail that one wonders why she only has issues with morals and ethics when she is the one getting humiliated/exposed. She has issues.
I dont like Taylor or her music, and never had read her lyrics. The one you posted on here is crazy! literally, who writes that? it sounds so, childlike, and almost evil. What an unpleasant human being. really! it is beyond me why people like her.
i think taylor should be thinking.. if i have so many …” enemies” and i find my self constantly having problems with people, maybe.. just maybe the problem is me…
Wow! Those lyrics about belle are so misogynistic, never knew. Why havent all the people who defended her because feminism mentioned this? Feminist my ass. I can’t with her anymore.
I see people were still mean to Camilla and told her to get over it.
Wow, Kanye shrugs, lol
How Taylor Swift has built a multi-million dollar empire out of parading rich white girls around on a stage and writing mediocre songs is baffling to me. It’s even more baffling that she preaches “girl power” while promoting stereotypical body/beauty imagery that is harmful to a lot of young girls who perceive that as an unattainable ideal and while appropriating black artists’ work. The Shake it Off video was straight up racist. Funny that Taylor would knock Camilla in lyrics and now she’s run off and bought herself a pair of porn star tits.
Totally agree !!
sometimes i remember my passion for baby spice when i was a kid and i feel what sadness it was for my parents, to see my role model 🙂
It’s hard to read between the lines and not being influenced when you are so young !
Who is she?
