Not a lot going on at the moment

how is someone this beautiful no matter what. i need answers

@taylorswift I just want to say how incredible you are. In a time of uncertainty and a lot of people losing their jobs, you’ve been so wonderful helping people. I’m not leaving you this post to talk about me. While I am out of work until at least April and I’m getting paid(for now at least) I want to tell you about my best friend Leah. She hasn’t worked since the middle of February. She first came down with Whooping Cough and couldn’t work because of it. Her daughter has also been coughing. Leah continued to get sicker and sicker and after seeing 5 different doctors they concluded that she did have Coronavirus. She has been out of work now for almost 2 months without a paycheck, and is not able to file for unemployment because she hasn’t been with the company long enough. I know even though you follow me too get so many posts and messages the likelihood of you seeing this is slim. But in the off chance you do, I know it would take a huge weight off her and her families shoulders. I also want to say you are absolutely not obligated to give her or anyone money. Even just a message saying hello would make her feel better. Thank you for being the wonderful person that you are. I love you!” Leah’s paypal is [email protected]

my boyfriend: you’re really watching the @taylorswift documentary for a 5th time?

me:

Hi Taylor! I am completely obsessed with Lover. I am so proud of you. I can’t believe it’s been almost 5 years since the last time we met. Can we reunite soon? I miss you. Enjoy this unrelated photo of my child Daisy. 💗 @taylorswift

Did I cry through the entire Taylor Swift Lover Livestream? Yes. Yes I did. I love you @taylorswift ❤️

I had a stroke in June. Olivia and I were in Boston, 90 miles from home. Thank goodness she’s such an amazing kid. At 12 years old, she stayed calm. She advocated for me, she took charge of a situation when I was incapacitated. I can’t even begin to express the admiration, the pride, how GRATEFUL I am for her. Things could have turned out MUCH worse for me. I got my tickets for GMA this morning and woke her up with the news. Hoping they can handle my handicap accommodation 🙏🏻 Anyway I know @taylorswift will probably never see this but I want her to know how amazing Olivia is 💗 @taylornation do you know about ADA access?

For years I asked, pleaded for a chance to own my work. Instead I was given an opportunity to sign back up to Big Machine Records and ‘earn’ one album back at a time, one for every new one I turned in. I walked away because I knew once I signed that contract, Scott Borchetta would sell the label, thereby selling me and my future. I had to make the excruciating choice to leave behind my past. Music I wrote on my bedroom floor and videos I dreamed up and paid for from the money I earned playing in bars, then clubs, then arenas, then stadiums.

Some fun facts about today’s news: I learned about Scooter Braun’s purchase of my masters as it was announced to the world. All I could think about was the incessant, manipulative bullying I’ve received at his hands for years.

Like when Kim Kardashian orchestrated an illegally recorded snippet of a phone call to be leaked and then Scooter got his two clients together to bully me online about it. (See photo) Or when his client, Kanye West, organized a revenge porn music video which strips my body naked. Now Scooter has stripped me of my life’s work, that I wasn’t given an opportunity to buy. Essentially, my musical legacy is about to lie in the hands of someone who tried to dismantle it.

This is my worst case scenario. This is what happens when you sign a deal at fifteen to someone for whom the term ‘loyalty’ is clearly just a contractual concept. And when that man says ‘Music has value’, he means its value is beholden to men who had no part in creating it.

When I left my masters in Scott’s hands, I made peace with the fact that eventually he would sell them. Never in my worst nightmares did I imagine the buyer would be Scooter. Any time Scott Borchetta has heard the words ‘Scooter Braun’ escape my lips, it was when I was either crying or trying not to. He knew what he was doing; they both did. Controlling a woman who didn’t want to be associated with them. In perpetuity. That means forever.

Thankfully, I am now signed to a label that believes I should own anything I create. Thankfully, I left my past in Scott’s hands and not my future. And hopefully, young artists or kids with musical dreams will read this and learn about how to better protect themselves in a negotiation. You deserve to own the art you make.

I will always be proud of my past work. But for a healthier option, Lover will be out August 23.

Sad and grossed out,

💔

taylor i love you and i’m so sorry

OH MY GOD @taylorswift YOU ARE A SPARKLY UNICORN BUTTERFLY PRINCESS. I AM OBSESSED. I LOVE HOW THE SNAKE TURNED INTO BUTTERFLIES AND YOU BROKE OUT OF YOUR SKIN AND YOU’RE FREE AND I LOVE YOU SO MUCH OMG

@taylorswift i am so excited for this new era and I’m so proud of you. I love you 💕 🦋

@taylorswift I hear you are influenced by cats, so I thought you’d like to see my child. This is Daisy. She has a knack for waking me up at 3am tearing through the house but then snuggling up to me so that I can’t stay mad at her. She just turned a year old and she is an eloquent princess of cuteness. Enjoy!

love you forever @taylorswift

Happy Valentine’s Day to my sweetheart. Thank you for being my best friend. I love you forever. ♥️ https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt3uzTvgnkfH8nwe69Nc8rJ047qxoQApqW6l-U0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kczkjb6cuw43

Yes hi hello. Friendly reminder that I have the most beautiful cat in the whole world. Okay bye. https://www.instagram.com/p/BtuYWXjnDTdd3mH6egtR3Q6d_3ALqsSWrDnp8I0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=r9ju248gzhkj

Imagine Daisy’s surprise when her aussie pal came to visit her yesterday at the circus!!! They sure do look happy to be reunited again. I’m sorry I missed you @mad_monroe but I know miss Daisy gave you good hugs from me 💕💕💕 https://www.instagram.com/p/BtsLBCNHdTls1F1cyPX0zu8r_KlMJmw6V5mS8c0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1j4fyc4081wps

I don’t miss the cold but I do miss NYC and spending the whole week with my love. After 9 months together I can’t believe he’s put up with me for this long 😂 https://www.instagram.com/p/BtrW5HPnDNRy-3Luwx5M9fuvKUSYHC0xMktpaA0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wgveic1qu9u7
