Theory:Was Taylor Swift Blake Lively’s retirement plan/cash cow? (RE:Betty booze/buzz marketing ‘dossier’)
I have long suspected that Blake Lively was trying to take authorship of the Swifties. She really was pimping out Taylor Swift to anyone who could listen to her Sony, the cast and now her business partners/investors. They even had the audacity to include that in the marketing plan and feel entitled to Taylor Swift. I can only imagine Blake Lively spamming Taylor Swift and begging her to go out to dinner where paparazzi will be waiting for them. I truly believe that Blake Lively thinks that if she is seen with Taylor Swift again, the internet will instantly like her again. I don’t think she will let go of that idea any time soon.
I’m wondering if most of her target market for her brands were the Swifties. If you look at the Blake brown IG, most of the models are white or white passing POC. Idk if she has featured anyone with type 4 hair( was this a mistake or a behavior rooted in her plantation loving ways?). It’s no secret that majority of the Swifties are white women and maybe she was pandering to them? A reach sure, but I wouldn’t put it past Blake to do that.
Those outings with Taylor, Blake was always touching her or holding on to her for dear life. For the past year and a half, Leslie Sloan has been putting out articles to make it seem like Blake is still associating with Swift but Tree would shut down with the quickness. Taylor Swift kept Blake relevant and losing that friendship is the biggest loss so far. It’s the reason we saw those crazy numbers she was claiming she lost because she really thought she would have made that kind of money from the Swifties.
Taylor Swift is as horrible as Blake Lively but she gave us a PR win by not inviting her to the wedding. Karma really did come through.
