[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No grown man should go by the name Scooter.[/quote] If I had Scooter Braun’s talent, brains and discipline (the guy was 100% self-made and a multimillionaire by 30), I would happily go by “Scooter”. [/quote] Yep, because he gets to sit back and work of the industry of others. His golden child (Bieber) seems to be crashing more by the minute, even though still successful. Swift has been successful in her own right. She’s a singer, songwriter, performer. Like it or not, whether you think she can sing and dance, her success speaks for itself. She has changed genres, which not a lot of artists successfully do. She fought and won a successful sexual harassment lawsuit. Here’s the thing, for me. She has a voice, and she uses it. So many women just shut the hell up and put up. It makes her “sound” like a victim, but the reality is that many women (and men) are victimized every day and never have a voice or a choice. I’ve been victimized in the workplace in countless ways, but I always had to shut up and put up to keep my job. She has a luxury most of us don’t. I’ve been physically assaulted, both sexually and violently, paid less, ignored for promotions despite better performance, etc. I actually applaud her for speaking up, because she has the body parts and will to do so, and I think it’s amazing. This is what the music and entertainment industries do to people, especially young people. Would you be happy that all your work at 20 went with no benefit to you? [/quote] You need to separate yourself from Taylor Swift. She isn’t fighting for you. She is whining bc she didn’t get her way. She is almost 30 and still relying on her innocent and sweet girl next door looks to garner sympathy. She plays naive even though she is almost 30. She lies and manipulates her fans to garner sympathy than plays dumb when she is called out. She is almost 30 and still pandering to children and teens. She is not some warrior out here trying to take down a system. She is a silly woman still stuck in her teens. [/quote] It's the same thing. Whether she's silly or smart/aggressive, she's calling out the fact that the label that made her, is also the label that she made. And she is unable to buy back her rights. Because the system is designed that way. If she were smart, aggressive, hard-edged, she would be a victim. If she is silly and immature and always-the-victim, she is still the victim of the system here. Or is Paul McCartney a silly manipulative whiner?[/quote] She could’ve purchased her songs, she didn’t. She chose to go to another label. A man she doesn’t like took over the label and therefore her songs. She called him creepy bc she doesn’t like him. You are defending her whining behavior why? Bc she’s a woman? Newsflash, she isn’t fighting for you. She isn’t fighting anything. She’s whining bc she didn’t get her way. She’s spinning it so she appears like some sort of victim. She isn’t a victim. She just doesn’t own her music. [/quote] When Michael Jackson purchased the rights to the Beatles catalog, that ended his friendship with Paul McCartney. McCartney was such a baby about it, amirite? [/quote]
