https://jezebel.com/it-looks-like-taylor-swift-was-telling-the-truth-about-1842438347It all began when Kanye West, self-proclaimed music-genius, was upset that Taylor Swift won an award instead of Beyoncé.
After that, he somehow got the idea that him trashtalking Taylor Swift AFTER SHE HAD PREVIOUSLY ALREADY WON MULTIPLE MUSIC-AWARDS made her a celebrity in the first place.
So, he wrote a song and made a music-video titled "Famous", insulting her, calling her a bitch, how she owed him sex for making her famous and the video had a nude lookalike of her.
Understandably, Taylor Swift wasn't happy and demanded an apology. And then Kanye West released phone-recordings how she had in fact been told about the song in advance and had given her okay, revealing her to be a manipulative liar.
Except...
1. The recordings of the phone-call were made in secrecy, without her knowledge.
2. Taylor Swift was told about the song in advance but did not give her okay.
And when the backlash from Taylor Swift came, Kanye West doctored his secret tapes to make her look like a liar.
How petty, how deranged, how obsessed, how corrupt and evil would a person have to be to do something like this?
The mere existence of the doctored tapes proves that Kanye West had planned this all along: He had planned to denigrate her with his song and video, he had planned for her to become outraged, he had planned to falsely paint her as a liar with his doctored tapes.
What a piece of shit.

(6,019 posts)Kanye West was when he said "George Bush doesnt care about black people." Other than that, I find him a bore as well as a boor.
