Billboard Disrespects Taylor Swift | Episode 104

[@suzanrose4866]

Rolling Stone rated TTPD at 100/100, called it a classic, and predicted it would be AOTY. How they listed it at #23 requires a forensic investigation.

[@oh.sorry.dont.mind.meeeee]

that's probably because Rob Sheffield writes for Rolling Stone, he wrote a book about her called Heartbreak is the National Anthem and he's basically a swiftie, he loves her work. I was reading the Rolling Stone review for the album and it's by him. In his review he even mentions other Taylor songs in a way that makes me so sure he definitely is a swiftie.

[@melisabuckley2873]

I'm so sorry for your loss Kelly, my first grandchild was born 6 months ago and I promise to you that I am a very involved grandmother in her life. She's a miracle child and we are all very grateful to have her in our life.

[@meghancisar]

Can we talk about how these media organizations have no real control or influence over Taylor’s career at this point and are afraid of her so they clear rage baiting article to gain traction… they always inevitably come at Taylor because they can’t compete-

[@katielafave4543]

travis also said he loves death by a thousand cuts cuz he watch her tiny desk performance!!!

[@chasswalker1]

Kelly sending you hugs and love for the loss of your grandmother….and Gia you were so sympathetic and calm while Kelly showed her grief!

So sorry for your loss Kelly, sending lots of love! ❤

[@LindseyMarieV]

Oh Kelly, I’m so sorry for your loss. I was very close with my grandmother who passed away on St Patrick’s Day, two days after my birthday and my grandpa said she tried so hard to not die on my birthday. Now I like toasting some Irish whiskey to my Irish grandmother every year. Hopefully future thanksgivings will be an opportunity to celebrate your grandma❤ I am sure Christmas will be extra tough this year, so sending lots of love your way❤❤❤

[@Dollyiris2024]

I'm so sorry for your loss, Kelly. I hope your loving memories of your grandmother bring you solace.❤❤

[@summerjackson2214]

[@VeronicaRabanal]

So tuched to hear about your Nana, Kelly. I'm so sorry for your loss! I miss my grandma every day-- and when you said your Nana's birthday, I gasped. My grandmother was born December 23rd as well and was so extremely special. Thinking of you. ❤‍🩹

[@meganjones4077]

Also, the key in the “Bejeweled” music video is a maple leaf 🤔. Perhaps Canada is the key to an announcement 😬🙏🏻

[@chrismcmurry8508]

My condolences, Kelly. Good grandmothers are priceless.

[@louisesanchez6935]

Oh Kelly my deepest condolences ❤🥺

[@melisabuckley2873]

Happy Birthday 🎂 Kelly I hope the rest of your year is so happy for you 💗

[@LauraTheBargainHunter]

I’m so sorry for your loss

[@AnnaleeD]

I’m am a grandma. It really is touching how close you all were. I have told my entire family I want no memorial or funeral. I finally consented to a toast with beer around a fire pit. Clearly they don’t know I only drink hard liquor 😂

[@sweettxlady41]

So sorry Kelly for your loss. Sending prayers to you and the family.

[@kaitlynalexandra8089]

i’m so sorry for your loss kelly ❤️❤️

[@ktkoyle]

I’m sorry for your loss Kelly. Sending you virtual hugs 🫂

[@dottimcafee]

My tickets were $149 at Denver last July … it took us all day on Ticket Master and they were just awful but I’m still glad we went!

[@heyfran8]

Stay strong Kelly, enjoy the memories. Sending prayers

[@nathalie1013]

This year Billboard has done nothing but write disingenuous and less-than-objective articles about Taylor. Why so much nastiness? She writes, reinvents herself, innovates a lot. Thanks to Taylor they made a lot of money. She is the best. Many artists do like her, copying it without ever naming it. I like Beyonce, but her songs are always the same, Taylor isn't. This is deeply unfair. I hope she doesn't go to the BMA so as not to give them a hearing for their disrespect. They will be more objective with her and all the other artists

[@laverneswartz]

Billboard is trash regardless

[@Inezka9]

Im sorry for your loss Kelly, i didnt know your nana but im crying listening how beatiful you are saying about her Sending love ❤

[@dominiccuomo7205]

I’m sorry for your loss Kelly sending virtual hugs ❤❤🤗🤗

[@EricAriel5]

So sorry for your loss Kelly,I know the feeling,I’ve lost all my grandparents. I’m sure she was a very special woman.

[@sweettxlady41]

I’m praying some how maybe Taylor creats her own ticket place and has things in place to assure fans can get tickets for her price not bots or scalpers .

[@skepticalmaiden]

My deepest condolences.

[@sweettxlady41]

I’m tired of them disrespecting Taylor.

[@MatijaSeric]

My condolences Kelly. I hope u will be ok. I'm sorry.

[@seashell0730]

I'm sorry for your loss Kelly. I lost my Dad when I was your age on Thanksgiving morning. I still to this day have Thanksgiving on a different day.

[@espinosa1989]

The Chargers-Chiefs game starts at 5:20 pm West Coast time. Taylor's goes on around 7:50 pm. By the time the game ends, Taylor would be on the Fearless set. So Travis can still catch the concert on his phone.

[@EricAriel5]

What billboard did was disgusting.

[@Zama-K]

Love and hugs Kelly all the way from South Africa ❤🥺

[@audreymckerrow9298]

So sorry for your loss Kelly❤

[@keepingupwith.......2907]

Condolences to Kelly n her family 🙏🙏, love from Taylor Nation fanmily

[@lille-mary1517]

The reason people clocked that it was intentional by Billboard to include that vile clip from Kanye’s video in a tribute to her. Is because that Chief Brand Officer from Billboard, Dana Droppo had her Twitter account shut down. After ppl already found tweets by her that were hating on Taylor, misogynistic and sort of with an Incel undertone. Making fun of how she can’t keep a man, that she was like the new Jennifer Aniston, and that she was a loser. With hashtags like #CantKeepAMan. Another tweet saying that someone sold a dog to Michael Vick, and that it was probably Taylor Swift (NFL player arrested for animal cruelty towards dogs and holdimg dog fights). And she had misogynistic tweets about Rihanna as well. Another tweet with a pic of Jay Z mocking how he would look to Bey from that angle if she gave him oral. A woman having that she is working with ”celebrating women in music” in her bio! It is so clear that the hate behind the scenes from people like this in the industry, is alive and well. They use Taylor for their ”product” (lists etc) to get attention and clicks, but also try to put her in her place with things like adding a Kanye reference of where he humiliated her, in a tribute to her. Just like when they listed all the great in Rihannas career, they had to bring up Chris Brown that beat her black and blue. Like why? And it wasn’t just her at Billboard that de-activated her twitter people noticed when this came out. A male executive close after did the same. One can only guess why someone adviced him to quickly take his account down before people saw his tweets as well. The timing of it all…

[@laverneswartz]

So that was the reason #Billboardisoverpart was trending and suddenly an "apology" (which sounded fake AF)was tweeted towards taylor and fans and i also saw fans tweeting that billboard awards should be boycotted if i remember correctly

[@JeanneBalaoing]

For me, it wasn't the rankings, it was the disrespect with the release of that video with it. Major disrespect.

[@Jess-y7c]

And to add to the cancellation of Billboard we need to add Rolling Stone and The Independent to this list. Also Kayla Nicole is a problem and is very obsessed with Travis she’s liking mean tweets about Taylor. Also Gia I got the book to and it’s wonderful its such a shame fake fans can’t enjoy it!!

[@palomabennettwordpressblog7490]

I am sorry for your loss Kelly.

[@Jess-y7c]

I’m so sorry about your loss Kelly 😢🙏❤

[@cameronkaminski6035]

Sending love Kelly!!! So so sorry for your loss...

[@suzanrose4866]

Condolences, Kelly. ❤

[@sherryhoemann1012]

So sorry for your loss Kelly. I am a Nana to 4 and I love them just like your Nana loved you. ❤

[@WriterGirlOH]

Sorry for your loss Kelly. I lost both my grandmothers in the same year.

[@BeverlyLounsbury]

Billboard can icky themselves Taylor rules sorry about nana🙏

[@KisDraga]

❤I'm so sorry about your grandma, kelly..Marjorie makes me cry because of how much it reminds me of my grandma as well.

[@L_J9021]

52:58 so here for the Ticketmaster hate. I love Taylor and haven’t been able to go to eras. I also did the Tate McRae presale and those were too much too!

[@erinstar41]

SAME. If people did any research they would know that the US + Canada (except Quebec) have ZERO federal regulation of the ticket resale industry. It sucks!

[@L_J9021]

@ it’s so sad. If the artists were getting that money, it wouldn’t be as upsetting - but i have a feeling artists like Taylor don’t want their fans paying that much anyway.

[@Shannlee75]

Sorry about your loss Kelly! ❤

[@katierepman5257]

So sorry for your loss

[@mymagicalmemoirs]

So sorry for your loss Kelly, sounds like she was a very special lady

[@lindsaydavies9649]

Omg haha trusting the Kelces reminded me of a thought I had a while ago we love Taylor so much what if she started doing evil or bad out of character things, at what point would we start to be like ….okay girl wtf 😂

[@lindsaydavies9649]

We’d just all go into our evil era along w her lol

[@britneystanger591]

We love you Kelly❤️ so sorry for your loss

[@karmasbreeze13]

Sending Kelly all the love and strength during the grieving time 🫶

[@stephanied4655]

Sending love Kelly. ❤❤

[@EricAriel5]

I tried watching “Christmas in the spotlight”, 15 minutes in I stopped,it was super cringy.

[@tayblessings13]

so sorry kelly!! sending all the love your way

[@MusicalMiranda82]

The things that annoyed me about the book is there were no photography credits, and yeah the spine right in the middle of the Doen Bad picture....that was my favorite one that I wanted to see lol. At least we got another one on the next page.

[@AmyRachelFarron]

Condolences 🩶

Tickets for cheap seats at Super Bowl is around 4500 dollars. My sis and me was looking this past weekend. Gotta win lotto fist . Lol

[@karrahmoore1088]

[@aaronkelley4484]

Kayla Nicole is just clout chasing!

[@jackielehman8945]

Save every grocery store recipt ❤

[@jackielehman8945]

Things dont happen for a reason, life is random... it just sucks soooo much sometimes, and we just gotta keep on trying ❤

[@ThatGirlShelbyy]

I've literally only heard a couple of those "top albums" on billboard. That's really disappointing to see that from them. She is very obviously at the top of that list considering she has broken records with TTPD, while the others in the list are most mostly irrelevant 😂 Taylor being number two for top artists is absolutely insane as well , if Beyoncé is first it'll just confirm that a lot if people have no real taste. She has a few good songs and that is it, while Taylor has 99% of her songs being masterpieces 😂 And B's country album is a joke

[@alexworkman3118]

The Billboard "List" of top artists of the century was based off of the staff picks. Not album sales or number 1 hits. STAFF PICKS. Lol

[@NB-wx5di]

Staff pick=hit job

[@teresagormley903]

K.C. Chiefs Tayvoodoo.11-1

[@sierracrum6040]

I could only get the cd 😢

[@FolJ52]

Thinking about you and your family, Kelly.

[@sweettxlady41]

Question is Amazon in charge of Amazon music. Who allows the music to be put on Amazon music.

[@Sassyglbeauty]

Am I crazy or isn’t Kansas City in both Missouri and Kansas - like touching?

[@Kpup]

LOL girls, even if it was in LA it wouldn't be at the same time, they play prime time games at 5 on the West Coast.

[@espinosa1989]

What's the name of the Taylor & Travis movie called again?

[@tjc4085]

Hayley shaded Taylor during the Kanye takedown and I’m sure Taylor stopped speaking to her for a while. Taylor defo keeps her at an arms length so I doubt she’s over it. Hayley also sounds so awkard answer t swift questions post the drama. You can tell she isn’t in Taylor’s inside circle. Don’t think she went to eras tour either

[@JenD62913]

Regarding Kayla, last year was also the SECOND time they had broken up. Nobody cares but her. 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@angelafrye4150]

Sorry for your loss Kelly, I share your Nana's birthday !

[@katielittle4491]

I think the trick is that Travis is full of shit but in all the best and most lovable ways!! 😂😂

[@sweettxlady41]

I feel same way. Waste of money to have funeral. I’d rather leave money to my children. They know just cremate me.

[@bellereinette2938]

I don't get the outrage of picking Beyonce over Taylor, probably cuz I love them both but both Taylor & Beyonce are so different that to me they shouldn't be compared like Taylor is amongst the greats in songwriting and Beyonce is amongst the greats in all around talent (as in vocals, dance & stage presence (performance in general) & to me most of the people I can compare to Beyonce in that case have all passed away except for Janet Jackson, she's the only living person I would put compare her too (& for that argument, Janet is mother! & I would add Madonna but I would more so compare Gaga to her those two seem more on the similar level to me) also another reason why I think it's ridiculous to compare the two and yes I am pulling out the race card but Beyonce is a black woman, her experience of the music industry is different (example, the Cowboy Carter/CMA/Country radio thing) & I will never allow a word against Taylor, I will never someone say anything against Taylor she is one of the two most hardest women in the industry and had to work so hard because she is a woman in this business but Taylor does have white privilege on her side, we have to admit that, while Beyonce had to work hard for a very long time (since the 90s with Destiny's Child) for people to take her seriously because she is a black woman, and some people still don't clearly cuz of the outrage! & I'll admit I will forever rant about Beyonce not winning AOTY for Beyonce self titled &/or Lemonade cuz THOSE ARE THE TIMES she should have won that grammy, & I think thats why I am bringing up the race card cuz they do experience music industry differently, it needs to be said. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

[@louannamccarty359]

This Dana person hates Taylor and people have looked up past tweets where she dissed Taylor. She has since deleted her account

[@tayblessings13]

dude billboard is literally DONE they can rot in hell

[@sweettxlady41]

I thought the movie was cute.

[@ana_lynn_w2959]

I was the 113th “like” 😊

[@stephanied4655]

Like maybe she was on a date??? Scott and her were very dressed up!!!

[@richardh776]

So what if Taylor goes to the BBMA'S. Taylor is not as petty as you guys. Beyonce has been around longer than Taylor, and I am an OG Taylor fan. Beyonce is considered pop, too. Both artists are great.

[@JeanneBalaoing]

For me, it's not about the rankings. It's about the video released with announcement. Disrespectful at best. Both are wonderful artists. I don't care about the rankings.

[@richardh776]

Ticketmaster is not reselling it. It is the scalpers and stubhub.

[@richardh776]

I heard that coach Reid let Travis have the week off to join Taylor at the last eras tour concerts in Vancouver.

[@Jess-y7c]

I find that very hard to believe you are not allowed to take off games.

[@MusicalMiranda82]

I'm so sorry about your Nana, Kelly. 🫶
