    Oh Jesus christ, are you really that far gone?

    She’s where she is now largely because of talent and hard work, who cares if her parents were wealthy?

    Get over it.

      Her talent is in marketing/making money through music. Artistically, she hasn’t risked going half a millimeter from the mainstream. Were she as talented as her (loud! Jesus, we already know you like her) fans think, she would be creating new forms of art unknown to humanity. She just found a group of people over the internet and a way to influence them to milk them for money with 27 million versions of the same album and merch.

      It doesn’t hurt being ultra WASPy and the daughter of the super well connected, super wealthy vice president of Merrill Lynch who basically harassed other people and companies into giving TS a space.
