I've noticed that PopGAF has an affinity for responding to a gif with the exact same gif. It's kind of hilarious.

Not on each other, repeatedly. But I guess that's how one "throws shade" or something.

Welp! We've been exposed!

Right here:

Whether Taylor knows it or not (and I suspect she knows it), if Kim hadn't released those Snapchats, there's a large portion of America that simply would have continued to take her word over Kanye's and believed that he was harassing her in the media out of spite. We're a country structurally set up to protect whiteness over blackness, and at least one reason 2016 has been the dumpster fire that it has been is because of the way America sees black men — and black people — in general.

And even with the Snapchats out there, people still falling on their swords for Taylor when she's either a) an outright liar and approved the line, or b) incredibly disingenuous for being so cool with everything then immediately putting Kanye on (public) blast for adding one unapproved slur.

Laughable. That one unapproved slur is quite a big deal considering he labelled her a bitch. It's not something to gloss over. Take it account that she also may have been pissed that he was disingenuous with her for doing the nice thing by ringing her up and relaying some of the lyrics, then not telling her the most vile bit.

If you want disingenuous, exhibit A is the cultural abortion that is the partnership of delusional Kanye West and the oxygen thief Kim Kardashian.

But hey, let's make it black v white. There's some real fantastic insight fellas. It's surely not the insidious actions of a pair of vacuous fame-hunters seeking more publicity by trolling probably the biggest superstar on the planet.

Ye stays winning.

Kanye West has a point. Taylor Swift may have been a hard-working country star steadily making a name for herself in 2009, but prior to their now infamous MTV interaction, most of us hadn’t a clue who she was. To the majority of the public, Taylor Swift came into being during that fateful moment where he stood on the stage beside her and claimed she was unworthy of the music award she’d worked so hard to win. In what must’ve been, initially, a humiliating experience for Swift, a valuable lesson was learned. Controversy is just another word for attention.

By now, everybody with access to a computer is aware of Swift’s pseudo-outrage at Kanye’s song lyrics, her team having released a statement saying “Kanye did not call for approval, but to ask Taylor to release his single ‘Famous’ on her Twitter account. She declined and cautioned him about releasing a song with such a strong misogynistic message.” Kim Kardashian responded yesterday with a Snapchat video in which Kanye is indeed, politely calling her to ask permission to use the lyric and Swift agrees, imagining how they could turn the situation into a temporary public argument. “You guys wanna call this a feud, you wanna call this throwing shade. But right after the song comes out I’m gonna be on a Grammy red carpet and they’re gonna ask me about it and I’m gonna be like, he called me.”

To be fair, the Snapchat video is edited. Swift doesn’t appear to give permission to use the phrase “that bitch.” Name calling aside, however, it’s clear that Swift is giving her blessing to Kanye to make fun of her, and planning to allow the public to believe that she is offended, until she corrects the situation. Later, she appears to have decided that a full-blown artificial feud would be more lucrative. This time, playing the victim appears to have blown up in her face.

Taylor Swift is a bit of an anomaly. The twenty-six-year-old country pop star has risen very high, very quickly, and now finds herself on top of FORBES Celebrity 100 list, with the eyes of millions of teenage girls upon her. A master of social media, Swift has managed to connect with her fans in a way that makes her appear not as the sparkling, celebrity goddess on a pedestal, but the cool girl next door. Swift responds to her fans personally on Instagram, Tumblr, and Twitter, and even invites groups of them to her home for album playback sessions. Swift has sent “Swiftmas” gifts to her fans by post and claims that her fans are “the longest and best relationship I have ever had.” Her music manages to capture the emotionally strung essence of teenagehood, highly relatable to her teenage audience and wistfully nostalgic to their parents. There is a connection between her and the public that other stars would kill for.

In her public appearances and music videos, Swift behaves like a blond bundle of positive energy, all sparkling smile, and ruby-red lips. Beneath the sugar-coating, however, is an incredibly shrewd and intelligent businesswoman with a ruthless streak.

After a very public feud with fellow pop star Katy Perry, Swift created the high-budget music video “Bad Blood,” packed with celebrity cameos and elaborate visuals, in which she fights a female adversary believed to represent Katy Perry. With the support of several high-profile female celebrities, Swift sent a clear message to Perry — I have more friends than you do.

Dramatic public feuds with Nicki Minaj, Kanye West, and ex-boyfriend Calvin Harris have ensured that Swift’s place in the headlines is cemented, spreading her influence far beyond her teenage followers. After Kim Kardashian’s revealing Snapchat, it’s beginning to look as though these feuds are nothing more than publicity stunts, created by Swift’s marketing team for her benefit. Whether or not these feuds are coordinated with the opposing parties are unclear.

This latest feud, however, may actually be the real thing. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, two extremely media-savvy individuals who have created vast media empires out of “unlikeable” personalities, may be attempting to knock Swift off her pedestal. Swift described Kardashian’s video as a “character assassination,” and in a way, it is. The sweet and innocent character Swift has been playing is beginning to wear thin. Feud after feud is beginning to make her appear a bit nasty. Her famous “squad” of beautiful, skinny celebrities is evocative of the stereotypical group of popular girls in high school, excluding an air of exclusivity and superiority. Try as she does to conceal it, Swift’s true nature is not a ditzy pop star, but a calculated and clever entrepreneur.

As one of the world’s most influential role models for young women, perhaps it’s time for Taylor Swift to grow up and embrace the pragmatic, powerful woman she actually is. As her fans age, the sickly-sweet sugar coating is bound to rub off eventually, revealing the hard nougat beneath.
 

That is full of observational errors. Besides the Jonas stuff (that was wrong of her) when has she publicly engaged in any of these "feuds"? She just stays silent and people fill in the blanks with their own interpretations.

While the West's are causing non-existent drama for empty internet nerds with poor taste to lap up, Swift was at a children's hospital in my home town visiting sick kids: http://www.smh.com.au/lifestyle/cel...lento-childrens-hospital-20160712-gq4ctw.html

Who's the real cunt in this saga? Yeah, his name starts with K.

Another wasteful op-ed. Thanks for posting so I didn't have to click though.

I could visit a Childrens hospital, it doesn't mean I am not a bitch when I am not there.

Kanye West isn't the real C**t in the Saga, he is mearly covering his back while Taylor tries to get some limelight and sympathy over a lyric which is widely used in media.

Taylor has been caught lying, she has been caught trying to end a career of another musician (like she has tried to in the past) and deserves all the negative attention she receives

It doesn't matter to those kids whether it's a publicity stunt, it only seems to matter to adults who posts in forums such as this.

All he needs to do is post the vid of her hearing the bitch line, and then I'd agree with you. I'll wait.

Until then, she wins. Again.

Article is spot on even down to the point where it portrays Taylor as one of the 'mean girls' in high school. I mean she's already accused of being snobby back in high school. Her whole persona is a facade.

I know people who grew up with her in Reading.

Her family still owns a big-ass mansion there.

She was the "mean girl" in high school. She was born into wealth and has acted like it her whole life—well, until it became even more profitable to feign innocence and wholesomeness.

That's some iron-clad sources you've got there.

I heard Kanye West is secretly now a Republican after Obama called him a jackarse in 2009. That's a fact. I know some people who work on his security team.
 
Oh so they finally released the video of her hearing the bitch line? Link me.
Her response:

"Kanye did not call for approval, but to ask Taylor to release his single ‘Famous’ on her Twitter account,” said Tree Paine, a representative for the Ms. Swift. “She declined and cautioned him about releasing a song with such a strong misogynistic message.” She added, “Taylor was never made aware of the actual lyric, ‘I made that bitch famous.’"


What it would have been if she weren't a lying snake:

"Kanye talked to me. He called me. I agreed to the lines, but I don't like being called a 'bitch.' I didn't agree to that."

I'll give you this bunny bear, you ride hard for Taylor.
Amazing that you just can't simply acknowledge Swift got caught in a lie altogether, regardless of "Bitch" lines etc.
Ha this is excellent 👏
It's super bizarre. It's like he doesn't realize that shitty people still visit kids in hospitals for publicity purposes.
 
You should probably look to the person who started the lies, yeah? People will still listen to her music, but everyone knows that she's a loon for sure now.

It's an edited video without the goods. Y'all believing Kim and it's so funny. :3

Queen Swift still on top. Pretenders trying to dethrone. :3
 
Swift fans: "There was never a call."

*Kim produces video evidence*

SF: "It doesn't mean anything."

*Kim produces video evidence part two*

SF: "Well, he never said the word 'bitch,' so that disproves everything."

That is called fallacious reasoning, people. You're pathetic.
 
I think Bunny Bear is Swift's brother.

He has been known to be a weirdo and oddly obsessed with his sister's image.

Where's that video mate?

Ya'll can say she lied as much as you want. Until they post that video of her hearing the bitch, you've not a leg to stand on. Accept, move on, admit you got sucked into the hype and go find some real rap to listen to.
 
Why does she listen to rap music, though? Nigga, bitch and all kinds of other shit gets thrown around on the regular. She doesn't have a problem singing/rapping along to it.

Even if she never heard, and is upset about, the "made that bitch famous" part, shouldn't she also take issue with Kanye saying he feels like they might still have sex? Yet she doesn't.

I don't believe she gives a fuck about misogynistic lyrics, or else she'd have a problem with some of the music she listens to. I don't believe she even cares about women being called bitch, or else she'd have a problem with some of the music she listens to. If she truly cared, she'd take issue with all songs that refer to women that way. But she doesn't, because then she couldn't record herself rapping along to Backseat Freestyle so all her fans can think she's hip and cool.

But that's the crux of the issue. You're believing smoke and mirrors over what needs to be shown. If I say, "don't call me a bitch" and you say you have video proof of me giving my blessing to call me a bitch, that video better have the word bitch in it. It isn't a difficult concept to grasp. 0.0

I see you're ignoring the scope of her lie for one minor semantic detail. That's called fallacious reasoning, Swift's brother. You're pathetic.

Except you were never arguing that in February. You said there was no video. You're just changing your argument to fit your narrative. Good job, baby Trump.

It's apparently easier to grasp than the concept of moving goalposts.

The best part about this is that dozens, perhaps hundreds of empties are hitching their wagon to Kim fucking Kardashian, the bastion of integrity, class and authenticity, cultivated over decades of social servitutide including a sex tape and a scripted reality TV show following the lives of her plastic family.

HOW COULD YOU NOT.
