[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But it was still Swift's own decision to draw attention to the song again by taking issue with West's taking credit for making her famous.  (And her Grammy speech was interpreted by just about everyone who had an opinion on it to be a reference to West's song, so if it wasn't about West she should have come out and said so.)

And on the phone she said she could understand how from his point of view he made her famous, even though she'd sold 7 millions albums before he interrupted her speech.

So Swift took hold of the news cycle to focus it against West on an issue she had said she was okay with.  If she wanted to complain about his misogyny, she should have talked about that instead.

But by doing what she did, it seems like she used the press to tear someone down over something they did that she was okay with when they asked her about it.  Same as with Calvin Harris and the song she wrote.[/quote]

The song that Kanye put out was not the song that he had described to Taylor.  That song and that music video were over the line.  Kanye was deceptive and Taylor absolutely did the right thing by calling him out for it.

She had thought that they had made peace and they could move beyond the nastiness.  She was wrong. It has not gotten better....even after the candy coated sweet words and flowers, bleh.  [/quote]
