I don't understand, she got mad because she got no credits for a song she made? Isn't that normal? What am I missing here, everyone is calling her a snake or something lol

She didn't get mad. They mutually agreed for her to write under a pseudo-name "Nils Sjoberg" so it didn't overshadow the song's artistry because they were dating at the time. TMZ broke the story yesterday (they claim one of her friends told them because they were sick of Calvin trashing her in the media) and now they have all confirmed that she did indeed write it.

That's stooping down to pretty low levels. Like come on.

Well, the number of times I hear it repeated on GAF, I figure one of you have to know her pretty well to get the inside scoop on her big secret. I mean, people wouldn't be repeating shit like that if there weren't any proof, right?
 
Considering that almost nothing she does has any effect on anyone here at all, it's kind of surprising the hate boner that some GAFfers seem to have for her.
Literally the only time I think about Taylor Swift is when I see threads about her on GAF.

I find her irritating, but I certainly don't hate her.

Then again, people like to project their feelings onto celebrities private business. It's reality TV on a mass scale. And it dehumanizes them as people, I think we need to realize that.
 
I mean it's one thing to write hit songs of your ex relationships, and another to take credit for something you did and your ex made bank of off, so Taylor's on the right for me. Plus, Calvin was already kind of a dick considering he caused one of his ex's albums to be shelved out of spite.

Taylor seems like a fucking snake.

From everything I've read about her, she is.

Everything she does is a calculated move from a PR standpoint to uphold that image of hers.

Of the two, I'm definitely on Team Katy :)

^Ahh the days when I was naive enough to believe trash tabloid articles of successful people to profit off their celebrity.


Who cares about any of this?

Evidently you do, you saw the title and clicked on it?

I'm interested why this man feels threatened just because she took credit for her work.

What I get from this thread is that some people are way too invested in these things. Why care who taylor is dating?
Every time she "breaks up" she comes with a new album and since she has a lot of fans waiting for new material...

Remember when Taylor Swift was this cute little country artist?
No? This narrative she has been making of her being a little girls who fought the odds really needs to die tbh

Fucking hell, Taylor wrote this song? Probably why it's so fucking good. Coupled with the insane talent of Calvin and Rihanna and you can see why it's a hit. So cool.

So Taylor wanted it to be a secret. After they separate, her and her team want everyone to know she did work on the song.

But Calvin is a bad guy for setting things straight? :/

TMZ broke the story, Taylor and her people confirmed it. Then Calvin confirmed it.
 
I know that Swift isn't the best singer but I don't think that Rihanna is significantly better. It'd be interesting at least to hear it being sung by Swift.

Rihanna has more DGAF attitude and cool in one of her tats than Taylor Swift ever will.

Actually, Taylor Swift is the patron saint of Giving A Fuck

I know what taylor swift looks like and I recognize a couple of her songs. Beyond that I'm in the dark. Am I missing out on anything?

Take your pick.

By all accounts she's an extremely decent song writer.

She's a savvy business person. Her PR team seems to be top notch, because she seems to have a Teflon coating.

That being said, she seems to draw a lot of inspiration for albums from relationships past. Occasionally some info seems to trickle in about her being the unreasonable one but she always manages to come out unscathed.

I agree. I read this thread in complete confusion. Why are people giving her such a hard time when it turns out she wrote a song that she wrote? Could it be that she's a woman who writes catchy songs and that bothers some people?

She's a white woman, she writes and performs relatively standard pop music without any pizzazz, she dates celebrities, and Kanye interrupted her that one time to say her video wasn't as good as Beyonce's.

That's the extent of it.

She's just despised on gaf, apparently she's fake, racist, shitty, etc. And people love Kanye here, lol.
