Lol I haven’t talked about this in six months. Not once. I haven’t made a statement about it,” he said. “When there’s a lot of things being said and a lot of different opinions, yet the principals haven’t had a chance to speak to each other, there’s a lot of confusion. I’m not going to go into details here, because it’s just not my style. I just think we live in a time of toxic division, and of people thinking that social media is the appropriate place to air out on each other and not have conversations. And I don’t like politicians doing it. I don’t like anybody doing it, and if that means that I’ve got to be the bad guy longer, I’ll be the bad guy longer, but I’m not going to participate"
Soooooooooooo this is INTERESTING, Billie Joe (Green Day) posted on his Instagram story "AMA rehearsal!!" with a lyric sheet for Bad Blood
"If I can't perform my own songs, then I will have my friends cover them! ...I'm Taylor... and I was born in NINETEEN EIGHTY-NINE!!!" haha
It’s well known he has access to his clients’ socials and while that’s not super unusual for PR people, the way he uses them is super weird and unprofessional.
Taylor not being nominated for album of the year is a bit surprising, and sure, a little disappointing, however, given how much amazing music is released every year that largely goes unnoticed by the Recording Academy and people being so wrapped up in the fact someone who already has tons of awards and attention on their work did not get nominated for another award, I'm not that disappointed.
(I am personally more stoked that Big Thief's U.F.O.F. got nominated because it feels like the Recording Academy is slowly starting to give attention to albums that are not "mainstream" in any way)
Songs in the medley: The Man, Love Story, I Knew You Were Trouble (LIVING FOR THIS VERSION, very rep tour IDSB), Blank Space, Shake It Off (feat. Halsey and Camila), Lover (piano version) nothing off of rep or speak now is kinda surprising. all the girls and moms all singing and dancing together made my life. billie and her brother are me for every taylor song, if we're being honest. edit: misty copeland is the balerina. wow. she went all out.
