Hello as your resident Swiftie I thought I’d take some time to annoy the #antiswifties on her and dispute some misinformation going around about the wedding that just happened between Taylor and Travis.
1. She did not invite ICE to her wedding.
The claim is that she invited Steve Demetriou Sr. to her wedding, Amentum executive. Amentum is responsible for overseeing operations at an ICE detention facility. However people are getting Sr. Confused with his son Jr. (they have the same name). Steven J. Demetriou jr. And Reggie (there adoptive son) are Travis’ childhood friends and did attend the wedding. However there is no verifiable evidence that Demetriou senior attended the wedding. “But he’s listed as a guest.” Yes many guest lists online have been listing father and son interchangeably, but none have listed both. We know Demetriou jr. Did attend because he spoke to reporters Sr. Most likely was not there. “What about the picture of his dad going around?” Thats a grid lock photo of the family from an entirely different event.”
Also a few more things you should know about the father
- he doesn’t oversee “ice operations” he retired before his company Jacobs merged with Amentum (the company that currently oversees ICE operations).
2. Taylor and Travis used so many public resources including tax payer dollars on the day of her wedding.
- that’s not true, organizers of private events are required to reimburse the city for police services. Large events, film shoots, and more require street closure in nyc locals know it’s part of living here and know she didn’t have three blocks closed it was small area near MSG mainly used by pedestrians during a weekend where everyone leaves for the holiday.
3. She contributed to the cities power outages.
MSG has its own power generators, back up power generators, etc…meaning she’s not contributing whatsoever to the electrical power grid. Not to mention the power outages were nation wide.
Okay that’s more of an opinion. The thing is a blank space like msg can be turned into whatever you want, but honestly I think weddings by nature are just tacky might as well do what you want.
5. She wanted attention she kept saying she wanted a secret, private wedding and had it somewhere like Madison square garden.
so there’s a difference between private and secret. It definitely was private cause days later we’ve hardly seen/know anything. However her being one one the most famous popstars were going to find out about it no matter what. “Tom holland and Zendaya kept it secret”, stop trying to pretend they’re the same level of celebrity.
6. “She walked down the aisle to her own song, she sang during her vows, she made it all about herself, she just wants attention how tacky.”
Again, weddings by nature are tacky. Also, weddings are supposed to be about the bride and groom. She’s the only bride I know of that people expect to not make her wedding day about her.
Final thoughts: before you make judgements on anyone do your own research and if all the information is not available my advice is to hold back your final judgement.
