It's what Taylor seems to want, though. Being in the tabloids gives her, her music, her endorsements, etc. more exposure. Lots of serious artists have been tabloid fixtures. Who knows if there'd be this demand for her UK tour, if the tabloids hadn't covered her US tour so much? And they did that because she's a 'name' there now.

And I don't remember her making repeated jabs at Harry afterwards.

There was the Grammys, the VF article, the comment about the Brit Awards and VMAs (not directed at him, perhaps, but she had to have known it would get reported as such). That was about 4 things too many

She did not think hard enough about how that would look.

Nor can you say that "Harry did nothing to her" You don't know the reason for the split. He and his bandmates have actually made mocking references to her on video also. 'Since the breakup'

Can you name something that they've done? I haven't seen anything, apart from one of them saying Taylor should have left well enough alone at the VMAs and I can't argue with that. Every time Harry's asked about something Taylor's done, he says something innocuous and nice. Could he have done something to her in private? Yes, but Taylor did supposedly clear the air on what happened with Harry in the VF article (or had a 'friend' do it) and the biggest thing she accused him of was 'looking at other girls', which made her look clingy and pressed over nothing. Whatever went down in private, Taylor handled it so, so badly in public.

One of those better choices would be "not dating another younger guy from a boy-band that desperately wants U.S. exposure

Seriously, though, we know nothing about this guy. The only thing I ever heard of him before was him sticking for Taylor. What reason do we have to tar him as a user? It's way too early to start throwing around accusations like that. What's the difference between that and the "She'll date him and write a song about him" stuff the haters say every time Taylor is within 25 metres of a guy?
