She ticked off some for tone-deaf statements about class and privilege (money not racial). As far as I know she just annoys people vs. being horrible.

Palmer was one of the first musicians to successfully fund a tour / album cycle through Kickstarter, I think to the tune of a million dollars or so. Then she attempted to pay other musicians on the tour with "hugs and beer", which didn't go over well.

I don’t deny that Taylor Swift is probably puppeteered to hell and back, every pop star is, but a lot of the complaints about her having too many breakups just came across as a sexist meme to me. What, a woman in her 20s not having settled down yet? Shock, gasp.

What, a woman in her 20s not having settled down yet? Shock, gasp. Unpopular opinion but many would go “why are we singling our Taylor?? Sexist!!” But like she’s one of the biggest acts on the planet male or female And she was dating men that were also hugely famous too Then in a pop world where you don’t want people to just buy your songs they want to buy you as a person, as a brand, which Taylor does quite well with her fans thinking they have this great insight to her life and her house and cats and mum being all part of her story- she writes songs sometimes with the famous ex in the title! Of course people are going to comment. That is why your song is popular!!! Dates John Mayer Breaks up with John Mayer Leaks to tabloids lots of goss on relationship but never says anything “officially” Writes song called “dear john” about a breakup with many of the same traits as the leaked information “Oh I don’t talk about inspiration for my songs” She wants to have her cake and eat it too. Sure there are some sexist idiots but I don’t think it’s crazy to wonder about if the most manicured and controlled pop star image conscious woman in music right now had thoughts about her heavily publicised love life that she famously wrote hit singles about. Also her biggest early song you belong with me is a slut shaming anthem soooo

I can buy this, in high school I remember one of the kids that had a band wrote a song about a girl he dated, a girl I was good friends with, and she was absolutely livid when it was getting school radio play because the content was straight up fabrication of what their relationship was like. It's a song that's stuck with me because it was also a really awful song and I don't think his career went much further than high school radio fame

G Willow Wilson commented on the Warren Ellis situation https://twitter.com/GWillowWilson/status/1273267066829549568 TL;DR 1) She believes Ellis' accusers and witnessed predatory behavior herself 2) It was an open secret in the 90s-00s (she left the industry for a bit after, so she can't vouch for how things were then). Essentially every pro in the industry knew, which obviously comes with a) everyone looked the other way, and it's heavily implied that b) a number of them significantly greater than 0 did so because they were abusers themselves 3) Ellis was a gatekeeper. If you broke into the business during that period, it was entirely because of who you knew. You had to make a good impression/get in good graces with him and a handful of other artists/writers. There were no applications, hiring initiatives, talent searches. All of this goes back to 2b in that he almost certainly wasn't the only one taking advantage of people during this

I'm assuming this is fake, mostly because she says she was 21 when it happened so was obviously too old for him, but still a good thread. https://twitter.com/livstadler/status/1273105636507766790?s=20

Thanks for posting this. While the fake suicide thing is immensely hosed up, 17-year olds are also going to do stupid as hell poo poo. But if you don't really seem to realize that by the time you're an adult and even seem weirdly proud of it to the point where you're sharing it with others like this, I think you haven't really learned anything past the smell of your own farts.

Britney Spears dad is a major league rear end in a top hat, he managed to weasel his way into controlling all of her money despite the fact she's now a 38 year old woman. She hates the dude and isn't on speaking terms with him, but legally he owns her. It's a creepy as Hell situation.

I don't think Spears' father (Jamie Spears) still has that power of attorney. He requested to 'temporarily' step down last year, not long after Kevin Federline filed a restraining order against him on behalf of his two children, due to an abusive incident. The conservatorship was under legal review.

Story just came out about Ansel Elgort so Baby Driver's icky for two reasons now! WARNING: The story is kinda graphic so read at your own risk. I've put it in spoiler tags in case https://twitter.com/ltsgabby/status/1273974928853827584?s=20

I wanted to figure out who Ansel Elgort was and found out that he might have bullied people using racial slurs in high school and is into open relationships too. (I believe that most of the time, one person is way more into a open relationship, than the other person in the relationship is)
