I woke up today praying for a drama-free day, but we're in the middle of another Taylor Swift album cycle so...that might have been a foolhardy hope. ANYWAY, LET'S DIVE IN, SHALL WE?
This is Joseph Kahn. He's an insanely talented music video director who's worked with basically EVERYONE in the music industry, from Katy Perry and Lady Gaga to 50 Cent and U2. Recently he's been a sort of default director for Taylor Swift.
And along with being insanely talented, this 44-year-old grown man *ALSO* has a habit of saying the type of stuff on Twitter that would normally garner an angry text from your mother.
People always ask me how to be famous. My answer is simple. Have your dad defend murder of a woman. Release sex tape. That's it. Good luck.
Like................................
MILEY at 14: I love to sing! MILEY at 20: cum on my tits.
And a frequent target of his ire are the Kardashian-Wests for...obvious reasons:
Ain't the first time the Kardashians supported the murder of an innocent blonde woman.
ANYWAY, you also have probably heard the "Look What You Made Me Do" video came under fire for its resemblance to Beyoncé's "Formation" video:
"Okay ladies now let's gentrification."
As he frequently does, Kahn came to Taylor's defense while also complimenting Queen Bey:
I've worked with Beyoncé a few times. She's an amazing person. The #LWYMMDvideo is not in her art space. Love and respect to Bey.
BUUUUUUUUUT he's had some choice words to say about Beyoncé's legion of fans, the Beyhive. LITERALLY THE FIRST RULE OF THE INTERNET IS DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, MESS WITH THE HIVE:
Why is everyone afraid of the Beyhive? What can they do? Pop out of your twitter screen and force you to wear Gucci?
Well, things just got juicier! In an interview with the Los Angeles Times to promote his new film Bodied, Kahn doesn't just defend Taylor against the claims...he actually says BEYONCÉ copied Taylor!
It’s not "Formation" at all. They try to say she’s wearing a black crop top and Beyoncé wore a black crop top. But they don’t realize in 2015 in "Bad Blood," Taylor Swift was wearing a black crop top. I really do think, by the way, that Beyoncé copied "Bad Blood."
All I have to say is...
Anyway, I'm pretty sure this is the black crop top in question.
*Twiddles thumbs.*
And yeah...people (ESPECIALLY THE HIVE) are not here for it:
If you "really" think Beyoncé copied bad blood then you "really" must've fallen and smacked your little head on the… https://t.co/ou1VOBGiiB

isn't it cool how joseph kahn will never ever work with beyonce lol
...ALL!
Fact: @JosephKahn will never be half the director that Beyoncé is. #Lemonade
And that's that on that!
