celeb news Thread on X explains the whole Katy/Kesha situation full of details

[BrokenMachine]

It's insane how some users deflect supporting a victim of SA into weird stan wars. This is Kesha, a big celebrity with tons of hits, and some try to downplay her experience just for 'being a flop'. Now imagine if this was your own mother, sister or even yourself, a literal nobody to the court system, like, do you deserve to be treated with less respect just for 'being a flop'? If the court system fails to a millionaire like her who spent over a decade trying to get a way from a POS like him... what would you expect to happen in a similar situation to someone like you? I got sick from reading some posts in this thread, I guess I'll have to use my ignore list for the first time

I don't like much of Katy's work and think her new song is trash. However she has the right to work with whoever she wants, others problems are not her problems. I find it very childish and problematic to feel entitled to say how people should act. Like that friend in school that told you not to be friends with someone they didn't like. To each their own.

 

If she wants to work with a rapist that's her choice, if she wants to be friends with Gypsy Rose that's her choice too

Of course. I guess she would have gotten way less backlash if she didn't try to profit off feminism with her new song while working with someone like him.

 

Also, she took the 'woke' flag in 2017 and made many people believe she distanced herself from him because of that. It turned out, as the court papers say, that she only distanced for the sake of her own public image.

 

Many people in ATRL like to call out Taylor for 'being performative' in many things, but for this case, Katy turned out to be performative when it comes to being 'woke' and 'feminist', she will only take those flags whenever she can take profit from it

Funny how you chose Taylor as an example when she willingly worked with a known sexual assault and abuser film director too (and got little to no backlash for that)

I never said Taylor wasn't performative in certain stuff tho

This is the response I was waiting for and it took this far to get to it. Thank you.

 

The absolute severe lack of empathy or compassion and taking this very real and awful situation and turning it into stan wars makes my stomach turn.

It's very interesting to me the people who are so against the posting and discussing of viral tweets when you could just so easily just not engage in those discussions if you're so against them. it's a forum and people are allowed to talk about the things that they find topical and one of those things is social media discussions.
