Taylor Swift: Don’t Take Yourself So Seriously

I know people LOVE Taylor Swift and she’s the tween-adult whisperer, but I’ve never been on her band wagon…especially now. She thinks Amy Poehler and Tina Fey are “mean girls.” This all stems from the Golden Globes when Tina said, “you know what, Taylor Swift? You stay away from Michael J Fox’s son.” Then, Amy joked and said she should “go for it.”

Anyway, she told Vanity Fair (on the subject of Tina and Amy), “You know, Katie Couric is one of my favorite people. Because she said to me she had heard a quote that she loved, that said, ‘There’s a special place in hell for women who don’t help other women.’”

Dear Taylor,

CRY.ME.A.RIVER!!!! Get over yourself! What are you going to do now? Write a song about being bullied by two funny women who were NOT malicious in their joke telling and are brilliant? Is being 23 really that hard? Here’s a lesson…lighten up, have a sense of humor and have the humility to laugh at yourself. It’s all fun and games, and I’m sorry you’re being so dramatic hurt. 

xo.

    Don’t you understand being 23 is hard for Taylor. All she wants to do is be a 14 year old girl. But everybody keeps telling her she’s not 14, to act her age and grow up.Can’t see how painful and hard that is? What would you do if somebody told you to act like an adult and be mature? It’s so unfair she’s expected act like an adult just cause she is an adult.

    There’s a special place in hell for women who don’t want to be best friends with Amy Poehler or Tina Fey.

    Taylor is boring and all of her music sounds the exact same.

    This was on Gawker:
    UPDATE: When contacted by The Hollywood Reporter for comment, Poehler (who, the Reporter points out, runs a YouTube channel “dedicated to empowering younger girls”) responded:

    “Aw, I feel bad if she was upset. I am a feminist and she is a young and talented girl. That being said, I do agree I am going to hell. But for other reasons. Mostly boring tax stuff. ”

    Here’s hoping Tina Fey doubles down on her stance and releases a statement reading “Yo, Taylor Swift is a BITCH.”

    I know being Satan’s first-born daughter, she has some clout down below, but she really isn’t in a position to condemn anyone to hell.

    With her sinister ass ways.
    I bet she’s the real reason the Pope decided to hang it up. He caught a glimpse of her on tv someplace and was so overwhelmed by the sheer evil emanating from her every pore that he just quit.

    Ole evil ass bitch.

    Just look at that picture. Look at her eyes (not too long, or your immortal soul will be forfeit), and tell me that bitch isn’t sinister as fuck.
    Just sitting there, plotting the eradication of everything good and beautiful in this world.

    Correct me if I’m wrong, but don’t about 50% of her songs hinge on a Madonna/whore complex where she is, and shall always be the virginal pure “good” girl stealing the mens from all those dirty harlots?

    I guess I’m going to hell along with George Carlin, Bill Maher, the Onion and The Hilarious Twosome (Tina and Amy), because the day I (as a free-wheeling, semi-feminist) quote-unquote “help” self-centered, whiny woman-children like Taylor Swift is the day that the Second Zombie Apocalypse comes.

    I know what you’re up to, Nads… you just want to be a Taylor Swift song! So, what, Bret Michaels wouldn’t write one about you, so you figure Taylor Swift will? (I know that’s the reason I keep cutting her off in traffic).

    “…the day that the Second Zombie Apocalypse comes”

    The first one already happened. We called it “Zooey Deschanel”

    I will not hear anything bad about Zooey Deschanel or Anne Hathaway. Both ladies have an open invitation to enjoy NotWithoutMyTv’s bounce house any time of the day or night.

    (Each of you is free to decide for yourself whether “bounce house” is meant as a euphemism for something else altogether.)

    There is a special place in Hell for girls who kiss and tell

    I really can’t stand her smug Renee Zellweger from 20 years ago face. If she is that pissed at Tina and Amy why don’t she do what she do best – write a shitty song about them. Reminds me of that In Living Color skit about the blind man that wrote 1000 songs a day about everything that happened to him ” I just woke up from a nap. I wrote a song about it wanna hear it here it goes”

    She is absolutely at the top of my irrational celebrity hate list…

    No wait; is the fact that I think of the quote ‘they’re so dry, like toast’ from My Big Fat Greek Wedding everytime I see her smug face a rational reason?

    Then again, maybe I’m biased as I’m probably also going to hell to atone for some tax stuff.

    Uuuggghhhh, Taylor is seriously my most hated celebrity, even before this. Ever since AI, actually (I didn’t even watch her season). I think her music is terrible, and I’ve been hoping for a long time that she would go the hell away. Not even kidding, i get irrationally angry when im stuck somewhere (usually a restaurant) and I’m forced to listen to one of her songs.

    Someone please tell Avril Lavigne that Taylor Swift stole her shtick. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are nothing short of brilliant!!! Speaking of which, I have thoroughly enjoyed each and every comment here!

    I’m sure as soon as Tina and Amy found out about the article they were on the phone to each other.

    Tina, “Oh man, Amy, Taylor Swift went in on us hard!”
    Amy, “Crap! What did it say?”
    Tina, “She called us “mean girls”"
    Amy, “Fuck her then”
    Tina, She’s quoting Katie Couric at us.”
    Amy, “Fuck Katie Couric too.” (I love Amy Poehler)
    Tina, “It’s KATIE COURIC! She says we have a special place in hell because we don’t help women.”
    Amy, “After all we’ve done for Lindsey Lohan? That’s bullshit. Tina, tell you what I’ll do. I’ll release a statement and make this all go away.”
    Tina, “You’re not going to mean to her are you?”
    Amy, “Wouldn’t think of it.”

    purplex15 Taylor Swift was never on American Idol. You might be thinking of Taylor Hicks, who is a man.

    She actually got her 1st record deal at age 14, two years too young for American Idol. No, we can blame a lot on AI but not the insurgence of the banal that is Taylor Swift.

    My most hated celebrity is Kim K, followed by Lohan, then Swift. I actually like Hathaway.

    I don’t recognize this line – they’re so dry, like toast – from Greek Wedding. When was it said?

    Okay, I see a scary trend here. No one wants to admit to being fans of Kim K or Taylor Swift and yet they’re everywhere and making tons of money. It’s kinda like that movie about the famous actress who wasn’t real but computer generated. That would certainly explain a lot.

    I don’t remember that line from Greek Wedding, either, but then sometimes I can’t remember what I had for breakfast.

    I am so glad to know there are other people out there who have that irrational celebrity hate for Taylor Swift. I’m all about sisterhood usually but she is vomitous and her voice is crap.

    I haven’t liked her since she ruined my enjoyment of Aerosmith at the Grammy’s.

    Here I was, all excited to see Aerosmith, and the next thing I know; there is Taylor Swift dancing around the stage, playing air guitar and singing off key to Walk This Way… I wondered back then..who the hell is this idiot and why is parading in front of the band and ruining a good song?

    I wanted to give her a swift kick in the ass then and have had no use for her since.

    @ Robin – thanks for posting that clip :) I bet the families of every guy she dates has that exact conversation with her name substituted in for Ian Muller’s.

    I read somewhere that she made a $1m profit on the sale of the home she bought near the Kennedy compound. I wish I made that kind of profit margin on my 5 minute relationships. Her life is just SO. HARD.

    I haven’t liked her since she did that “duet” with Stevie Nicks. The girl can’t sing. But someone has done a great job of packaging her and convincing people she’s all that.

    I remember the first time I heard her sing. Several people I knew were raving about her and I heard one of her songs and it was musical wallpaper. It wasn’t good but it was too bland to be enjoyed as a fun, cheesy song.
    If her song writing had matured as she aged she’d be tolerable, but she is still writing the same crap that she wrote when she was a teenager.

    Too bad she and Kanye can’t duke it out to their mutual deaths. I hate that sumbitch, too. He should just go ahead and bone Beyonce already–it seems to be his ambition in life.

    Kanye will only bone Queen Bey in his wildest dreams….with those nasty KK germs all over his penis.

    Anne Hathaway is horrible. It makes me upset that she’s such an irritating person, because I think she’s a good actress and when she’s being someone else, I’m all like yassssss.
    But when she’s herself…ugh no.
