Celeb News: Lorde disses Selena Gomez - Page 3

VDK

This girl is so unlikable... and to think that Selena covers Royals on her tour

She's coming for her

MusicTalker

I think Come & Get It is a harmless pop song that was meant to be ear candy. Its lyrics aren't anything controversial or anti-feminist. To me, if anything, the songs is about a woman being in control of what she wants in a man ("open invitation").

She would've made a better point bringing up Blurred Lines (which is a really fun song but more goes along the lines of what I understand to be her issue with how women are portrayed in the music industry). The lyrics are borderline but the video is extremely anti-feminist. And yet it was one of the most popular videos of the year.

Being a strong sexual female is not feminism? Actual feminism died early in the 80's anyways. Not sure what it is now.

Dancehall

Feminists are allowed to have sex and try to be sexy (and a song can express that) but I guess in general the line sounds bad if you want it to out of context.

Christina never did things like this.

Lorde is giving more of an Azealia tea.

The key difference is Azealia attacks and drags with no reasoning to back her up and in an uncivilized manner. She is unprofessional, rude, and mean spirited.

Lorde's opinions are just her OPINIONS, she's always civil and cordial in her professional criticism (she's talking about the material Selena has released professionally, not Selena herself), and she can back it up with proper arguments on why lyrics like that can be seen as degrading against women.

Plus there are far more offensive songs she could nitpick re: feminism. Girl, lettuce not use it as an excuse for your thinly veiled apparent dislike of (99% of) the girls in the pop world. We getttttt it, you are like so totally super alternative.

Honestly, I don't think I can take a 16 year old feminist seriously. She's probably just mad no boys ever liked her and/or she's one of those raging d!ke misandrists. "Real" feminists don't normally nitpick over sexually liberal lyrics sung by other women.

Stop it Lorde. We get it, its your opinion and such, but you have an image to protect!

or be a rebel and go against the system, you can do that too.

She really doesn't.

Reminds me of those "feminists" who got mad because Beyonce named her tour, "The Mrs. Carter Show."

Rigalo

I have yet to see Lorde actually say something offensive about another artist (usually she just drags the lyrics they sing) and she always have you guys up in flames like she stabbed ur mom.

nah, feminism just has a bad rep in the media, hence why some women are all 'WELL I'M NOT A FEMINIST BUT I totally agree with the main point of feminism but ya not a feminazi!!!~.

I also dragged this lame song with that lazy pathetic "sexy" hook

Forevermore
