I think a public condemnation of Dr. Luke and refusal to work with him would have been a better way to go. That, of course, is riskier than writing a check.

I doubt it. She publicly gave her a quarter of a million dollars to fight a lawsuit against Sony. Saying she’d never work with Sony or Dr. Luke wouldn’t carry any weight because she’s with a different record label altogether and that would never happen anyways so you’re wrong actually, and condemning him and refusing…

You try suing a behemoth like Sony with unlimited resources and an entire team of lawyers, for years, and then tell me you wouldn’t take 250k from a friend.

Riskier for Taylor Swift? She’s Taylor Swift. Leave it to a preeminent pro-feminist publisher to nit-pick, second-guess and habitually tear down a woman achieving at the height of her profession. It’s like when Jez pitched months of catty remarks at Anne Hathaway for trying to win an Oscar, because fuck it all if a…

Legal fees are insanely expensive. Putting up a good fight in her legal case will run Kesha millions of dollars.

Meatus...hehe...I am mature.

Years ago Taylor won an award at one of the major award shows. She was less high profile at the time so she was sitting further back. Kesha was seated in an aisle seat. As Taylor was walking up to the stage to get her award she stopped and hugged Kesha. There both from Nashville, Kesha’s mom is a country songwriter,…

My impression was that Kesha’s mom made the info public first and then the spokesperson followed up. Other blogs mentioned that Taylor was the maid of honor at a childhood/high school friend’s wedding this weekend. If that were me, I'd tell my staff to address it and focus on my loved ones.

Kesha’s mom made the announcement via twitter

Probably because of all the veiled and not so veiled attacks on her for not making a public statement.

No worries ;).

Take my advice - propose to that girl that hasn't left you yet for being as into pro wrestling as you are.

at the risk of sounding horrible, that right there might be the only reason religion is worth anything: perspective

“We didn’t lose her. When you lose something you can’t find it. I know exactly where my wife is.”

She’s apparently out of the country

Yet there are men of color that she not only thanked but brought to stage.

Come on with this shit. Way to make her win still not good enough.

It’s a fair point. Although I know Imogen Heap has production credits on “Clean,” and Taylor has writing credits on every track on the album and production credits on at least 5. The fact that many of those men have a collab credit on one track each (and that she invited them to the stage) makes for imbalanced optics,…

I think it’s ok to give a few props to T-swift for sticking up for herself on this one after being disrespected not once but twice by Ye on a public platform entirely unprompted. I don’t love everything (most) things she does, but I’d love to see a feminist blog standing with a woma n in the face of misogyny…

Wow. Its hard to express how ridiculous and obnoxious that tweet is.
