I’m publicly misogynist when it comes to this specific woman, so fuck you if you complain about my upsettingly vehement hatred THAT FUCKING WOMAN

To quote myself, a great writer, “the hotter take might be: Lover is lit!!!” (But still not quite as good as Reputation, her best fucking work to date. Period. “I did something bad” is so fucking murderous, glorious. Meanwhile, all you sad fuckers with that “All Too Well” bullshit)
Missy Elliot is just a fucking genius. Her songs feel more modern and sexy and daring than anything on the radio now
She’s got money to protect. And she actually needs to protect it. Because she’s in a brutal, misogynist business and her brand is her. She is called “Taylor Swift” and so is everything she makes and sells. I’d have a weird ambitious, calculated smile too, if I were that vulnerable, and I had that much to lose
She’s got money to protect. And she actually needs to protect it. Because she’s in a brutal, misogynist industry and her brand is her. Taylor Swift has been creating, and doing, “Taylor Swift” since she was 13. Meanwhile, 30-year-old Taylor Swift is still called “Taylor Swift.”
Also, real plea to the powers that be: Taylor Swift is doing something cool r.e. Scooter Braun. I’m very here to read about that and grateful to any journalist who can provide a supposedly feminist take — on him. (most of the scooter profiles are fan-boy music press or magaziney stuff from financial page inserts.)
God bless Slate, God bless SNL -but kiddo I’ve had sex before - an experience more powerful than Yourube clips! So forgive me if I insist that: the word “lover” enjoys a rabid fan base, Taylor Swift knew what the fuck she was doing, and no one in marketing gives a fuck about an SNL skit?
Not to backseat drive, but the hotter take might have been: “Lover is fucking lit!”
Jezebel is like a murder jeep stacked with four people who have been approaching the same prey at 45 mph for three years, hitting liberally with spiked basbeall bats labeled, “white feminism” and “privilege???” At first their victim was Hillary Clinton, and god bless Anna Merlan for writing that great, totally impenetr…
Jesus Maria, this piece is extremely thoughtful and lovely, but where is my Taylor Swift content/excoriating review/obituary for public feminism?
I love all the Taylors. But Drunk Taylor is definitely my favorite Taylor. Also, at one point, she says she “fucking loves Cardi B” with an inebriated lilt that I recognize from my own wine-addled effusions.
Jezzies: Read the entire Vogue interview. It’s longish but excellent.
To be fair, she’s fucking right. I long for President Hillary Rodham Clinton every single day. And Trump is so fucking ghastly that every single headline on the hilarious site HillaryBeatTrump.org is a lot more believable to me as an educated adult human than whatever’s fresh hell is being reported on the page of the…
Um, thanks to the reliable geniuses at HillaryBeatTrump.org, you literally can!
“Fuck men who had tingly feelings about slavery day”
Excuse me, sir, but I fucking love Beyonce!
Wait, has Jezebel just published a piece about Taylor Swift that doesn’t blame her for single-handedly losing the 2016 election to Donald Trump, supporting Donald Trump, “pretending” to be a feminist, or propogating the wealth gap? On re-reading this article, the tone is not witheringly negative!
Me too. I genuinely thought it was spectacular. I’m a sucker for bright colors, dresses, and Todrick. So aesthetically, it had my number from the beginning. (Also, the framed Cher quote, “Mom, I am a rich man,” basically made me cum in the first fews seconds.) But by the end of the video, I was absurdly moved. It was…
