Yeah I don't know there have been so many other weird vibes with her tbh. But, she does come from an industry family so her having an ego is unsurprising.

zoomaces

Welcome.

What are some things that Blake has done? I live under a rock. I only know that she’s friends with Taylor Swift.

I dont think thats true necessarily. There are a lot of good people out there, or least, not VILE people. Just like i blocked all chris brown, diddy, r kelly and kanye songs on spotify. I refuse to give money to support them.

HP is a bit different because the series is not JK herself, but other actors. Ill likely still check it out too, but I just hate that she is getting praise or money for her work. I do thiink she has changed. The old version of JK was not like this, I dont know what happened to her.

Well the main drama right now is that she was promoting the new film that is about abuse in a very happy/positive light hearted way and when people asked about the movie she didnt really talk about it in a very serious way and was joking about different things like the wardrobe etc, also describing her character in a weird way, like things she liked rather than what she went through, which rubbed people the wrong way. She was also talking about grabbing your girls and wearing pink and going to watch it as if its supposed to be some fun cute romcom???? Meanwhile, justin was doing interviews about the seriousness of the movie and sharing resources for help etc... Someone also asked her what she would say to someone who had DV issues and wanted to talk to her about them and she replied and blake was SO nonchalant in her response. She's basically made it all about her and was like "are they asking for my address or my location or what?" like making the person out to be a stalker or something. And doesnt even answer the question.

Apparently her and Justin had a falling out on set and people are claiming its because Ryan and her took over the directing of the film and changed scenes and re-wrote stuff without telling Justin about it. They came off pretty annoying to me. There is also an old interview with Blake going around where she completely overreacts to a question that she is given and is super rude to the interviewer. The lady said "congrats on your bump" because Blake was pregnant at the time and Blake shot back with "congrats on your little bump" as if it was an offensive comment??? Not to mention the interviewer struggled with infertility for years so it was very insensitive. Then she continues to avoid eye contact with her her and chat with her costar, completely ignoring the interviewer. Super strange. Another time they ask about fans coming up to her and she makes some sort of comment about she doesn't have time to talk about her life with them. There is also rumors she got married on a plantation.

Blake I think is probably intending to be very "jokey" in most of these moments and not intentionally trying to be rude or obtuse but she just comes off very privileged and selfish. I thinks hes just very uninformed and unintelligent tbh.

this is the interview she was blasted for. (imo she was being extremely rude)


here are more things:
Skip to 2:13 where it starts talking about it. 6:41 is the other interview quetion and response.



Also I want to say, Taylor Swift is friends with a lot of people and she is not responsible for their actors or the things they say and do in the media.

Thanks for the new thread!

Michelle, Shu thanks for sharing this because I was wondering what was going on actually. I was following him on Instagram and saw some video of him talking agains the Democratic Party and was wondering what is going on. You provided the context and the background behind that.

To be honest I am not super surprised as for some reason I had some red flag in my head about him. I enjoyed Chuck a lot and wanted to like him but I remember that when the news about his divorce with Missy came to light, for some reason my Intuition told me that his religion was a factor. Now I have 0 proof for that and not saying it is true, just for some reason my Intuition told me that he was way too religious to a point of being fanatical. I can see this making him also maga. Not that it is an excuse, I just see some link between the two. Not that every religious person is like that but for some reason I felt that he has the potential to go there. I decided to unfollow him because not interested in political content on my Instagram feed, definitely not that kind of political talk.

I still like Chuck as a show but sucks that now when I think about Chuck, I will think about this.

I meant there are just SO many that you do not even know about. Like I said, there's so many classic poets and writers that did horrific things and we are still reading their work in schools all around the world. We just don't talk about it because back then there was not social media. Now there is and every move these people make hits the news instantly.

Agreed. For the longest time I assumed the abuse she endured at the hands of the dude in Portugal played a part. But even so, that is no excuse.

Thanks for all of this. I will check out the vids.

Wow, to all of the things that you mentioned.

Taylor Swift is certainly not responsible, and it goes without saying.

zoomaces

Thanks, Sam!

zoomaces

Welcome!

Your intuition was strong.

I remember his divorce to Missy. I wondered about that. Very interesting.

Did I know you watched Chuck?

Blake having no self-awareness has nothing to do with Taylor Swift.

zoomaces

Exactly.

Taylor Swift is friendly with Brittany Mahomes, Patrick Mahomes’s wife who is a Trump-supporter.

But Taylor Swift is a big Harris supporter and endorsed her.

You can see Taylor juggles all types of friendships and she doesn’t judge people for having different opinions. But the great part is Taylor’s opinions are her own and she does what she wants regardless. Which is awesome.

ds44

people are making this about taylor when its not that at all. She has nothing to do with the bad jokes told by a grown woman.

Alexa

People were trying to blast her for this but 1) Patrick is the teammate of Travis, so its not like its someone she can simply avoid

and 2) Knowing republicans or being acquainted with them doesn't mean anything. i know many people i am forced to work with that are republicans. for example, the family i used to nanny for had trump stickers on their fridge. I was very friendly with the wife, who was neutral and actually her husband was super nice too. I dont agree at all with their politics but i wasnt going to quit the job. If they want to pay me good money then so be it. It doesnt mean I respect their opinions at all. a lot of the families that take dance at my studio are republican too. I dont respect their policies but i am not going to create drama and lose business.

So I think its pretty insane to just expect Taylor to cut out every single person that is being "cancelled". She herself knows what its like to deal with terrible drama and rumors, so im sure shes giving her friends the benefit of the doubt.


If one of my friends said something stupid in the media i wouldnt just cut them off entirely. (depending on what it is) i would want to reach out and get their side of the story.



Bringing the Stranger Things chat over here...

Her looks to him were def. romantic. It wasn't just remembering the old times. If it was all Steve convos with other people about Nancy maybe. If it was just that one conversation in the truck, then sure. But we saw 2/3 times where Nancy was staring at Steve, like when he took his shirt off in the lake? Like, that is totally unnecessary. To me, that was showing very clear signs she was starting to pine for him again.

I also dont know if N/J were not working JUST because the distance? Because they didnt even really try to call each other very often. Nancy seemed irritated with him a lot. And it felt like Jonathan just wanted to break up with her because he was moving on, not that it was the distance forcing the issues???

Again, they can fix this by having Nancy admit that she felt lonely when Jonathan was gone, and she was starting to think she might still like Steve simply because they were spending time together. (Tho I still think that would ultra weird writing!) And if that happens then I think the purpose was ALL because they wanted to find more ways to stall Nancy/Jonathan so they have some sort of storyline for them in the final season I guess. I really really really hope that is the case. But as a steve fan it does suck that he keeps getting hurt by Nancy? Why do they keep dragging this through the mud? Which is why now I feel like Steve might sacrifice himself for Nancy and end up dying. Because I think its highly unbelievable he would fall for someone else.

I've seen Byler fans just CONVINCED that Mike likes him and is hiding feelings and they were "flirty" in scenes and I think its just... such a stretch. Even if they didnt make mike/eleven so meaningful over the seasons, I dont see m/w as anything other than platonic right now. Yes Will likes him, but Mike has only ever been his good friend. Now, same could be said here... why have Will develop feelings if its not going to go anywhere. But unlike the N/S scenes imo where its clear Nancy is giving Steve pining looks too, we have NOT seen any sort of implication that Mike reciprocates. I think the purpose here could just be Will coming to accept who he is, potentially letting Mike know how he feels, and then being able to move on. Cuz I just cannot see a mike/will kiss AT ALL. The most i could see here is a hint that maybe Mike reciprocates and only if mike/eleven decide they are growing out of their feelings. (but again, dont see that happening as Eleven has clearly been shown to really love mike and vice versa) like holding hands or something, but thats about it really.

This is really whats going to determine a lot I think. Because writers use flashfowards to change things a lot. Like on true blood, seeing sookie end up with a random guy with kids lmao. I could see them doing that with steve if they want to, like showing all his kids running around and stuff and jon/nancy getting married or soemthing. Who knows. I am not married to anything but i do think its a possibility to also be disappointed. We also dont know who could potentially die. I still think they will be too scared to kill anyone major off lol.
