If they weren't blindly devoted to the brand imagine, they would have noticed she's just another rich piece of shit
If I were a billionaire I'd keep giving my money away to bring it down to 900 million or so. Then I could hide better. Also, I've always wanted to buy one of those super yachts and a politician. /s
You're in luck! There is a huge sale on buying politicians under the current administration
There’s always been sales on politicians, this admin just lets them be more blatant.
I dated a swiftie a few years back.
One of the most clueless individuals I've ever met. Stanned both Taylor Swift and Nicki Minaj then turned around and called herself a leftist.
Fans are fucking dumb.
Idolizing other humans is idiotic in general. You can enjoy someone's artistic output, but always be ready to say fuck them and their art if they turn out to be trash. They owe me nothing and I owe them nothing.
Weir Al's fans would like a word.
Ah you'll shake it off.
(I'll go ahead and show myself out the door now)
Haha, you joke but she actually managed to do some psychic damage to me. For no other reason than she accurately deduced what I was doing for entirely incorrect reasons.
She thought I was lying to her because I wanted to manipulate and control her. The reality is that I was much more attracted to her personality (the bits not mired in social media bullshit, like her ability to draw). What I was lying about was the sex being good. My god I have never been more disappointed in a woman, I am to this day convinced she's gay.
Oh I'm sorry to hear that.
Eh, I shouldn't have lied to her — we're both better off.
I'm old.
What does Stanned mean?
backed or vouched for, from a parasocial standpoint.
How old? Because, it's an Eminem reference. Not saying you can't be older than that reference but, it's been around awhile.
I've heard the song but never seen the name used as a verb until recently.
Been used for years and years my man. First time I recall it was all the lebronstans following the Lakers. Then I saw it like everywhere
Absolutely valid. I'm a little slow and only put the two concepts together like a year ago haha. I knew what the term meant, I had heard the song, it took me many years to put it together. Oops lol
mega fan, from the Eminem f/t Dido song Stan about an obsessive fan.
Ooooooh.
I saw an article about how fans were excited that they were giving out leftover food from MSG... Here I'll just find the quote:
With more than 1,000 guests in attendance, there was naturally plenty of food. A Krispy Kreme truck carrying doughnuts was seen leaving the venue, along with boxes from Sweet Baby Ray's, the barbecue sauce brand, and Butterball (known for its turkey products).
She's a fucking billionaire, and her wedding food is all (likely free) product endorsement, brand name bullshit.
Zero class. Zero taste.
It's free stuff, fuck it.
She's a billionaire, cost is entirely irrelevant. They could have had quite literally anything, and they chose Krispy Kreme and Butterball Turkey
OK, but...
One moment at the ceremony has sparked outrage after Girls star Lena Dunham reportedly left fellow attendees shocked.
According to Daily Mail, her speech described football as ‘just straight guys reenacting gay porn.’
Taylor Swift is a billionaire. Those who had the illusion that a billionaire can be anything other than a disgusting member of the unelected ruling elite just got a reality check.
Isn't she from a wealthy family too?
She is Daddy's entertainment investment that paid very well in return
yes, thus the reason she's famous. she bought her way to fame to provide the masses with her mediocre music. and if anyone tells you it ISN'T medicore, they're lying to you and themselves.
TLDR her dad works in finance, moved the family to Nashville, and supported her career at every step. So she very much got carried by her parents even if they didn't buy her fame.
Given the Music Industry's history of insidership and hand selecting artists for the highest level of promotion; I think the lack of "smoking guns" such as her parents mass buying her albums or paying off producers etc just shows how inorganic and corporatized popular music is.
The fact that she's alt-country is the smoking gun. WWE is less fake than Country Music.
Her father bought a shareholding in the record label that then signed her.
"followers of billionaire shocked to find out billionaires act like billionaires, don't care about fans opinions"
You CANNOT be a billionaire AND a good person. The two are not compatible. If you were a truly good and decent person who cares about others, you WOULDN'T BE A BILLIONAIRE
If I were a billionaire my job would quickly be to find good ways to give away my money. Cancer research, paying for school lunches, fund libraries, found some sort of institution that makes life better for people.
I think I'd just buy the same politicians they do to fund that stuff permanently instead.
Mostly I agree with this but not as a blanket statement. I wouldn't view it as "good or bad", but rather " does their behavior cause harm?". In the cause of the vast majority of billionaires, yes, they cause harm to get to where they are. Examples like Swift, Jackson and Rowling where they have become billionaires through entertainment are less straightforward. But there is still the question of why are they hoarding all that money, which quite obviously does harm
Billionaires DO NOT BECOME BILLIONAIRES THROUGH HARD WORK
They become stupid rich via exploitation.
Barring some massive astronomical movie coincidence that makes the rich overnight by surprise, they got their wealth DISHONESTLY.
THERE ARE NO GOOD BILLIONAIRES.
By holding on to it instead of using all but what they actually NEED (lpt you don't NEED a 15 million dollar house) they prove it every single day.
Taylor swift could almost single handedly ensure no child in the US goes hungry, yet.... Doesn't. List any number of charities a billionaire donates to, the fact that they're still a billionaire means it's NOT ENOUGH.
Every day they have many orders of magnitude more than the average person, they prove they're pieces of shit not worth our time.
Yeah
You mean the Woman who Printed thirty DIFFERENT copies of her Expensive albums so her Fans would HAVE to get ALL of Them despite the ONLY difference being the album Color isn't a Good Person? I'm SHOCKED!
Have these fans no agency?
Not really

Why would you buy it 30 times just to get a different color? Was that in any way shape or form common for fans?
"Sickened"
The artist has faced swift backlash...
Writer just couldn't resist, could they?
