ONTD Original: How Taylor Swift and Donald Trump were able to overcome career-ending audio leaks

$
0
0
In July 2016, Kim Kardashian exposed Taylor Swift as a liar and a snake (🐍) when she released a series of Snapchat videos featuring a telephone recording of Taylor Swift giving Kanye West permission to use her name in his rap on "Famous," after Taylor Swift said that she had cautioned Kanye West against "releasing a song with such a strong misogynistic message." Immediately after, Kim's Snapchat videos became national news, with many speculating that these leaked recordings would ruin Taylor Swift's career forever after she was caught lying.



In October 2016, Donald Trump experienced his own scandal when audio of his conversation with Billy Bush during the filming of Access Hollywood revealed his "grab them by the pussy" comment. The audio leaked before the second presidential debate, and many believed that this leaked audio was the death blow to his election campaign. This post will look at how the two biggest stan wars of 2016 became national news, and how the individuals whose careers were supposed to be ended by their respective audio leak scandals were able to flip the script on the narrative and come out more successful than before.

TL;DR - By cultivating a radicalized loyal fanbase and blaming the media, Donald Trump and Taylor Swift were able to come out unscathed and in fact more successful after their respective audio leak scandals.

Step 1) Let all your fans know that the media always treats you unfairly



Both Taylor Swift and Donald Trump have lamented over the fact that the media treats them unfairly. Taylor Swift released a whole album (1989) in response to the media and what she saw as a possibly career-ending backlash over the fact that her dating history had become a national joke. Throughout his whole election campaign, Donald Trump spoke out against the corrupt establishment media and how they never treated him fairly, often referring to them as "fake news." Donald Trump and Taylor Swift were able to create an alternative narrative to counter their enemy's narrative by letting their supporters know that their greatest enemy (the media) is and always will be against them, so that makes the media biased and untrustworthy.

Step 2) Give your fans direct access to you through social media, intimate private gatherings, and huge public events to maintain loyalty



In order to help show how "biased" the media is against them, both Taylor Swift and Donald Trump have made themselves readily available to their fanbase through interaction on social media, as well as through big public gatherings (Swift's concerts and Trump's rallies) all across the country. By showing fans they are easy to reach and very receptive to their feedback, Donald Trump and Taylor Swift made their followers feel like they have a special relationship with them that the media doesn't have. Through this relationship of "trust" where fans get to know the "real" person without the media's "biased" filter, Donald Trump and Taylor Swift's followers became more loyal and radicalized.



Taylor Swift uses a social media team known as "Taylor Nation" and she will sometimes invite fans over to her house to build loyalty, while Donald Trump uses political rallies to meet his supporters face-to-face and employs a social media team to interact with followers. You will see "Taylor Swift"liking posts from fans either to show that she agrees with the sentiment or appreciates their support, which is what "Donald Trump" does whenever he retweets a conservative meme or responds to something a follower said.



Step 3) When your public image is damaged, release a statement and then blame the media in order to rally your followers in support of you



Taylor Swift and Donald Trump were completely caught by surprise after leaked audio exposing them became national news. They both released statements blaming the media: Taylor Swift said that the she was "falsely being painted as a liar" and that this was "character assassination," while Donald Trump apologized, but not before saying that the media was being dishonest and unfair to him since they refused to talk about the allegations against Bill Clinton. Donald Trump was able to turn around the accusation that he promoted "fake news" by accusing the media of being "fake news" that constantly lied about him. Taylor Swift went on to announce an album with the on-the-nose title "Reputation" by using a snake in promo videos in order to flip the narrative on the snake nickname which Kim Kardashian had given Taylor to show that she is a liar. The album cover also features Taylor Swift's name as newspaper headlines, alluding to the "fake news" she tells her fans is constantly surrounding her life.



In order to measure the success of their push back against the negative press they received last year, one can only look at where Donald Trump and Taylor Swift are today: Donald Trump became the 45th President of the United States, and Taylor Swift's latest single "Look What You Made Me Do" is already breaking records and looking to debut with some of her biggest first week numbers. Both Donald and Taylor don't seem to be stopping anytime soon, as Donald Trump has held multiple campaign-style rallies since becoming POTUS, and Taylor Swift has just announced another massive tour that encourages her fans to interact, post, and buy merch in order to get better access to her. Donald Trump and Taylor Swift continue to experience success due to the fact that they've helped to create such loyal followings.

The Killers recently broke the news that flop member Dave Keuning has reached an agreement similar to that of other fellow flop member, Mark Stoermer, in that he is still apart of the The Killers - but will not tour in support of the new album. Despite a five year wait between albums that was caused because of these two members - apparently it is still too soon to tour or do any sort of promotional obligations for their new material. Ted Sablay and Jake Blanton will take the place of both respective members during touring duties. The original line up of the band will remain in tact [for now] and all four members contributed towards the upcoming album "Wonderful Wonderful."The tour kicks off November 6th 2017 in Birmingham, UK at the Genting Arena.

  • Model turned actor/singer Cara Delevingne, who has been single since her breakup with musician/director St. Vincent last September, opened up about her history of dating cocky men: "I think I’ve probably fallen for cocky guys. Usually they haven’t been as nice. Usually a man with cockiness and that kind of thing… it’s a double-edged sword in a way."

  • After splitting with actor Michelle Rodriguez, Cara briefly dated Skins alum Jack O'Connell in 2014. She also dated Harry Styles and Jake Bugg in 2012 and 2013 respectively. Delevingne apparently turned down Leonardo DiCpario as well.

  • As for finding that true love: "Yeah, I do believe in a one and only love." She adds: "One and only is when you find love and you find that person who sees you for who you are, and you see them and you lift each other up and yeah, you want to spend the rest of your life with them."

Do you find cockiness attractive, ONTD?

Why Taylor Swift Is A Nazi Icon

Though critics have given her song bad reviews, Breitbart seems to love it and has been tweeting out its regular stories with a relevant line from "LooKKK What You Made Me Do."

She probably would like to be excluded from this narrative but her team or Taylor herself have not denounced them, though she did have time to call out speculation of her contorting her body in luggage to avoid the paps, but not this.

The Alt-Right website is obsessed with Taylor and was profiled last year by the Washington Post which described her as an "Aryan goddess icon."


Back in 2013, another white-supremacist website The Daily Stormer started to post memes of Taylor with Hitler quotes. They called her "...A pure Aryan goddess, like something out of classical Greek poetry.”

Milo Yiannopoulos wrote that the alt-right thinks “Swift is covertly ‘red-pilled,’ concealing her secret conservative values from the progressive music industry while issuing subtle nods to a reactionary fanbase. She's white, blond, and doesn't speak about politics.”

Natalie Portman interviews Lily-Rose Depp for CR Fashion Book

Natalie & Lily-Rose co-star in Planetarium, about two spiritualist sisters in 1930s France.

choice excerpts:
NATALIE PORTMAN: I heard that your photoshoot for CR was really special.

LILY-ROSE DEPP: I love working with Carine. She actually styled the first shoot that I did for Chanel when I was 15. This time I got to show a little more skin and be a little more sexy. I had just turned 18, so I was ready to up the ante.
NP: Growing up, what was it like having both the French and the American sides to your family?

LRD: Weirdly enough, I feel pretty connected to both cultures. I can seem fully French when I’m in France or totally like a Valley girl when I’m in L.A. [Laughs]

NP: It’s so impressive to be able to act in two languages.

LRD: The movie I’m shooting in September is my first in French. I’m the main character and I’m speaking in French the whole time, so I’m really nervous. When I talk fast in French I tend to stumble on my words a lot, so I have to work on that.

NP: What are the big cultural differences between France and the United States?

LRD: There’s something more personable in Europe than there is here. In the States, there’s more of a facade that I see people putting on. For me, the French culture is richer. It’s also easy to prefer Europe given the present state of things. I would have been nicer to America a year ago. The way politics is going, it’s hard for me to sit down and point out all the things that I love about America.

NP: You didn’t get to vote in this last election, did you?

LRD: No, I just missed it.

NP: That’s got to be really frustrating to feel like you didn’t even get to have a say.

LRD: It was really frustrating. Of course I’m not even seeing the half of it. I’m not feeling the effects that so many other people are feeling. I can’t even imagine actually living it and feeling these changes.

NP: One of the days that you did those scenes you were actually really sick with a stomach virus.

LRD: I was not about to go home. I was the youngest one on set and it was my first really serious movie.

NP: You don’t like to let anybody down.

LRD: A lot of people think I’m only acting because of my dad, that I have not had to work as hard to be seen or recognized in the industry, so I think because of that it makes me want to work twice as hard to prove to everyone that I’m not just doing this because it’s easy to do. I’m not just doing it because it runs in the family.

Taylor Swift's "Look What You Made Me Do" Slammed by Domestic Violence Survivors

$

- "Look What You Made Me Do" utilizes a vocabulary of abuse which is deeply, traumatically familiar for domestic violence survivors.
- Instead, "Look What You Made Me Do" seems to have Swift taking on the language of an abuser to exact her own karmic revenge on old enemies.
- What's more is that "Look What You Made Me Do" is damaging and misguided, because no one can make anyone else do anything. Everyone has free will, and the ability to control their own actions.

update to this post

- claims to not being aware of any organized attempt to manipulate the sale

- nobody actor Thomas Ian Nicholas (who is attached to the movie adaption of the book) says he ordered bulks of copies for conventions but did not "instruct anyone" to buy at NYT tracked bookstores


“My personal opinion: I’m a first time author; I did some great numbers. They put me on the list. The list is curated. They didn’t have to put me on the list despite how many books I sold. When these people made a big issue, they were like, 'This is too much effort.'”

“Because some people in the YA community weren’t aware of it doesn’t mean that there weren’t plenty of people out there that were excited about it. It's disheartening that someone I don’t know decided to attack me today basically because he had never heard of my book. I’ve never heard of his book either. It's probably great, but I’ve never heard of it. Does it mean I would question it, if he had some level of success?”

“The last book that caused a lot of controversy was Fifty Shades of Grey. And it was caused by the book community because it was nothing like what they’ve put out. Whether you like the book or hate it, you have to acknowledge it outsold everything. I remember seeing an article where someone in publishing said we had to stand up and look at this because there were people out there that wanted to read this and we would never have put it out. That’s what people forget. There’s a world out there of people that read books; they just don’t exist in this little pocket, in this niche.”

Nathalie Emmanuel talks racism & debunks GOT theories in RAW Magazine

On being mixed race/experiencing racism at an early age: "I definitely didn't know that I was brown skinned until a boy in the park said something a little racist. (laughs) But he was six so we can let that go. I asked my mom why he called me that name and my mom said, “Oh, well because our family is from the Caribbean.” I was like, “Oh, okay,” and that was it. Suddenly race identity became very important [one day when] we had a multicultural day at school. We were talking about how a lot of black and African cultures have blended into British culture, and there was a lot of people who were quite upset. I was in a really interesting position there because I have white and black heritage. I was sort of in the middle."

On being mommy's girl: "It’s getting worse as I’m getting older apparently. I love my mom. I go home and it’s just like everything is good. My sister and I and my mom have a WhatsApp group that we speak on constantly. Obviously I’m often away, and I’m on different time zones. I often wake up to my sister on there or they wake up to my sister and me. I talk to my mom mostly everyday."

On her first celebrity crush: "Don’t know if you guys know him [in America]. His name’s Peter Andre (laughs) and he’s like a pop star in the U.K. Oh my goodness. I loved him. That's so embarrassing. He had this great song called "Mysterious Girl", which was so good. Then he had really good abs and he was like body rolling under a waterfall. And he had this proper 90’s curtains and an open shirt, a light tan... I had lots of pictures of him around my bedroom."

On GOT season finale: "Oh my goodness, it’s going to be so good. We really could feel the magnitude of what we were shooting. You just feel the weight of all the seasons being carried with us too. And the implications of certain characters feeling the same space for the first time. Everyone is so good. I’m going to be sad when it’s done."
