At first you would assume she is speaking out against people overcharging for masks or other essential items. But no, she is referring to her previous record label selling a live album of hers.

What a bitch she is for connecting this deadly virus to someone selling a concert recording.

quote:

"Hey guys — I want to thank my fans for making me aware that my former record label is putting out an 'album' of live performances of mine tonight. This recording is from a 2008 radio show performance I did when I was 18. Big Machine has listed the date as a 2017 release but they're actually releasing it tonight at midnight," Swift posted.

"I'm always honest with you guys about this stuff so I just wanted to tell you that this release is not approved by me,” Swift stressed. “It looks to me like Scooter Braun and his financial backers, 23 Capital, Alex Soros and the Soros family and the Carlyle Group have seen the latest balance sheets and realized that paying $330 MILLION for my music wasn't exactly a wise choice and they need money.”

Swift concluded by decrying Big Machine’s move as “just another case of shameless greed in the time of coronavirus. So tasteless, but very transparent."

“This release is not approved by me. It looks like Scooter Braun and his financial backers have seen the latest valence sheets and realized that paying $300 MILLION for my music wasn’t exactly a wise choice and they need money. ??”

Do you think Fancy Cleveland steamed a guy?

I mean her Mom did turn her out and all, so I figure she probably had to shite on a chest or two before she was finally able to settle down.

Isn't it greed to accept somebody's overpayment for your music?

It’s really sad how Taylor swift wasted her prime banging randos and sky screaming about trump. She could’ve gotten married and had kids and been happy. Now she’s like 30 all washed up and probably can’t even have kids anymore

I couldn’t imagine why all her previous boyfriends dumped her or cheated on her. What a lovely young lady.

Remember when Taylor Swift was the great white hope for alt-right types just because she's blonde with blue eyes and kept 100% apolitical?

Strange flex, and...well just strange. Why would you talk shite about someone who is releasing something you sold to them for 330 million dollars?

I love it when celebrities who’ve already made their millions delegate others for trying to make money.

Probably so, but she didn’t give it away either. She got paid. It seems to me that she’s jealous bc the $330 million is far less than what she was paid.

Is it really any mystery why this chick can't keep a dude around?
