Celebrities exposing other celebrities?

Now we’ve heard of celebrities being exposed by jealous fans, vicious newspapers and heartless paparazzi, but by other celebrities themselves is something else. Yes, we know that it happens but why? Is it a revenge tactic or another way to stay famous? All intentions are different and this week’s exposé are ex lovebirds Taylor Swift and Harry Styles.

Their quick relationship was no secret to the public as they were seen frolicking hand in hand on numerous occasions both in London and in America. They are both notorious for serial dating signifying privacy towards their love life was never a big issue. When they broke up, one seemed to be more vocal than the other about it as during this year’s Grammy awards, she mocked Harry in her number one hit We Are Never Getting Back Together. This caused a ruckus of course because anything to do with celebrity gossip is major entertainment.

Following this, Harry has requested that scenes of him and Taylor are to be removed from his band’s upcoming 3D concert movie. Reasons’ being is because Taylor is said to be going around talking about their relationship which he deems as “childish” he reportedly said. It is unknown exactly why they broke up but it is evident that Taylor is more verbal as Harry has seemed more low key saying “it is what it is” to ABC news.

The views of the public vary from agreeing that Taylor is in fact being childish to simply not caring. On OMG! Yahoo, the public seemed to be very vocal about Taylors actions with some saying “Taylor has no class at all. Soooo immature. Believe me Harry, you are better off without all Miss Drama crashing all your parties. She's a stalker” and “Who cares? This broad is so immature and dizzy she'll NEVER keep a man. They don't want to ever get back with you, you arrogant B. Men don't want a pretty girl. They want a mature woman - something you're not, great looks or not.” Then on the opposite end, comments say “Somehow I doubt Taylor cares that much.....how long were they dating, a few weeks?” and “The same rehashed insults literally get reused on every Taylor Swift article honestly some of you need to grow up. That was a great performance.”

Taylor seems to be getting more flack even though Harry’s past relationships seem to be disastrous also with his title being a ‘womanizer’. So why has he fallen victim? Is it because he is taking a back seat on publicising their relationship, or is it a case of men always seeming to get away with things. The topic of men vs. women in relationships is very controversial with the idea that it’s ok for men to live the bachelor lifestyle with countless women but if women were to do the same, it’s seen as indecent. This pushes forward Freud’s psychoanalysis of women saying that women are inferior to men along with other ‘misogynistic’ views. He had many opposing viewpoints, one of which being from Sophie Freud who says that "His ideas grew out of society. He mirrored in his theories the belief that women were secondary and were not the norm and didn't quite measure up to the norm," but is this really true? Women being inferior to men still stand in other cultures so perhaps if Taylor wasn’t so notorious for being a serial dater and writing about it in her songs, maybe she would have been seen as the victim but who’s to know?
