Hi Taylor, don't know what else to do. I'm an Uruguayan fan who needs your help. My family has a lot of problems because of the coronavirus. My mother has to take care of my little brothers and me because we are having some economic problems, and the company I was working at during the nights to help her, cancelled their night shifts due to this issue. I literally don't want to ask for money but this is my only option. I'm so sorry if any of this bothers you at all. I love you with all my heart, Val.

Day 15 at home! 🏠 We are in total quarantine in Argentina, and the same happens with most countries in Latin American countries. So we decided to make a hashtag #LatinSwiftiesAtHome (which yesterday was TT on twitter) to get to know each other through selfies, support each other and motivate us to stay Safe & Sound at home to avoid the Covid-19 advance.

Quarantine is difficult, but your music and affection helps us keep our spirits up @taylorswift ❤❤ so thank you!!! We love you!

Taylor went from calling it “The Instagram” to making reaction gifs

There are so many ways in which this album feels like a new beginning. This album is really a love letter to love, in all of its maddening, passionate, exciting, enchanting, horrific, tragic, wonderful glory. — Taylor for Vogue’s September 2019 issue

[holygroundxred]

For years I asked, pleaded for a chance to own my work. Instead I was given an opportunity to sign back up to Big Machine Records and ‘earn’ one album back at a time, one for every new one I turned in. I walked away because I knew once I signed that contract, Scott Borchetta would sell the label, thereby selling me and my future. I had to make the excruciating choice to leave behind my past. Music I wrote on my bedroom floor and videos I dreamed up and paid for from the money I earned playing in bars, then clubs, then arenas, then stadiums. 

Some fun facts about today’s news: I learned about Scooter Braun’s purchase of my masters as it was announced to the world. All I could think about was the incessant, manipulative bullying I’ve received at his hands for years. 

Like when Kim Kardashian orchestrated an illegally recorded snippet of a phone call to be leaked and then Scooter got his two clients together to bully me online about it. (See photo) Or when his client, Kanye West, organized a revenge porn music video which strips my body naked. Now Scooter has stripped me of my life’s work, that I wasn’t given an opportunity to buy. Essentially, my musical legacy is about to lie in the hands of someone who tried to dismantle it.

This is my worst case scenario. This is what happens when you sign a deal at fifteen to someone for whom the term ‘loyalty’ is clearly just a contractual concept. And when that man says ‘Music has value’, he means its value is beholden to men who had no part in creating it. 

When I left my masters in Scott’s hands, I made peace with the fact that eventually he would sell them. Never in my worst nightmares did I imagine the buyer would be Scooter. Any time Scott Borchetta has heard the words ‘Scooter Braun’ escape my lips, it was when I was either crying or trying not to. He knew what he was doing; they both did. Controlling a woman who didn’t want to be associated with them. In perpetuity. That means forever. 

Thankfully, I am now signed to a label that believes I should own anything I create. Thankfully, I left my past in Scott’s hands and not my future. And hopefully, young artists or kids with musical dreams will read this and learn about how to better protect themselves in a negotiation. You deserve to own the art you make.

I will always be proud of my past work. But for a healthier option, Lover will be out August 23. 

Sad and grossed out,

💔

😂😂😂

Taylor broke Instagram this is so funny

[holygroundxred]

And then there were three…

[holygroundxred]

Look me in the eye and tell me that Taylor’s smile and overall energy on this tour isnt the happiest you’ve ever seen her like you can tell she’s just having so much genuine fun dude I’m emotional she deserves every good thing in the world

[holygroundxred]

Things we dont talk about enough: How Taylor admitted the only reason she was so vocal and proud about having that squad 2/3 years ago was because in her mind she was still a young girl who got bullied at school and had no friends so she wanted to show off to the world that she finally got them, then when they all left her and she went in hiding she realized that “No amount of friends at 25 will fill the empty seats at the lunch tables of your past, the teams that picked you last… but darling, you keep trying.”
