trouble in paradise.. maybe paradise lost.. prob'ly more like fools pardise
8-15-15 Probably going to be another day without seeing the bottom of the tumblr dashdoard, I reckon iota get used to that. Today the dash is fulla stuff about last night's show, coverage was better on my dash that on the regular Tour Update site. Sort of. Anyhow, when Taylor came out to do I Know Places, she was wearing an outfit that hadn't been seen on the tour yet.. and it didn't really look like any of the other tour costumes.. y'know, it wasn't like something in a new color. It turned out to be an outfit that matched the one worn by Camillia Cabello when Fifth Harmony came out.. the special guest for this date. Yeah, and then Tay kinda danced with them.. doing their choreo along with performing Worth It. And then, before she changed again, she did Should've Said No (and presumably Clean and Love Story) in the acoustic set. So yeah, lots of short vids of “Sixth Harmony” and the 2008 chestnut performances. And the story goes that Should've Said No was requested by a fan in the preshow M&G. It's a nice distraction from the romance blog drama. It seems that Taylor's unfollowed a few blogs and not coincidentally they're all Haylor blogs.. that's Harry Stiles and Taylor shippers. And from there it gets really messy. Tumblr can be a mean place. When I came in, two weeks ago, there was some buzz about blogs getting deleted for posting copyrighted material (generally performances more than a minute or so long). Deleted. Like poof, get up one day and your blog is gone. And Taylor is sorta legendary for “liking” fans posts and following their blogs; there's a real currency in getting her attention and the selective nature of the blogs that got unfollowed this week has been kinda cataclysmic. As one expects, the affected kids are crushed. And almost curiously, the Kaylor (Karlie Kloss and Taylor) blogs and (almost of course) the Tayvin blogs are untouched. Speculation about motivation is curious and cruel.. it sorta borders on a looming sex scandal. Fandoms, what a racket. Meanwhile, I continue to pick up followers from somewhere somehow. It's kinda exploded since I got that one unfollow last week, I've picked up three or four new follows every day.
