[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I dislike Kimye, but Taylor got on stage on national television and ripped Kanye down because he tried to take credit for her success.  She clearly heard THAT part of the lyric and approved, and was very agreeable on the phone with Kanye about it.

She then saw that she had PR opportunity to speak out against it, which was really deceiving, considering she knew and agreed to it.  Now she is cowering behind her good girl victim facade.  [/quote]

Where does she agree to it?  I hear her thanking Kanye for informing her about it.  It's sort of rich to be defending Kanye for saying something so vile about her in public, but then going after Swift for responding to the claim in public.  There's such a sexist overtone to all of this. [/quote]

What?  I'm a white woman and I think there's such a racist overtone in all of this.  Her people said he didn't call her for approval of the lyric, he called her to release the song on her Twitter -- that is obviously false!  They obviously had an hour long phone call in which his intention was to get her approval of the lyrics in advance!  It was wrong of her to pretend that the lyrics were a total surprise to her.

I really like the NYT take, posted on the last page, on the whole thing.  Fair, but on the whole coming out (seemed to me) in favor of Kanye.

I also think this is two times in recent history where Swift has initially seemed to agree to something and then apparently changed her mind and backpedalled and tried to make the person she made the agreement with look bad:
(1) writing the lyrics to the Calvin Harris song under an alias so she didn't take focus away from him, but then after its release saying that she wrote the song.  (Cue Calvin Harris twitter feud over Swift making him look bad.)
(2) seeming open to the Famous lyrics on the phone with Kanye and then doing an about take in front of the cameras saying he was taking credit for her work, and then doubling down and saying he never called her for her approval of the lyrics, just to release the song on twitter (when he clearly did call her for her approval of the lyrics, they talked for an hour, and she thanked him for calling her in advance and said that doing so was really cool and respectful of him and that she appreciated it!).[/quote]
