Bad Blood: Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, and the End of America's Sweetheart

About this ebook
Love her or hate her, Taylor Swift has become one of the most celebrated and instantly recognizable recording superstars on the planet. But today, there are two distinct camps that surround the country-turned-pop singer.
There are those who believe Swift to be a loving, positive, and unfailingly faithful friend who stands with good people and behind great causes. And then there are others -- others who say Swift is petty, obsessed with one-upping Katy Perry in all matters personal and professional, and someone who turns every philanthropic gesture into a self-serving publicity stunt.
Whether or not Taylor Swift is still America's sweetheart is now up for debate. And for the first time ever, bestselling author Ian Fineman goes inside Taylor Swift's battle with Katy Perry, her ugly social media spats, and the root cause of her rapidly deteriorating public persona to see what, if anything, is truly to blame for Taylor Swift's dramatically changing reputation.
Is Taylor Swift really at fault or is she the victim of conniving former friends and a throng of media reporters and press outlets who simply wish to see the Bad Blood singer fall from grace? You just might find yourself stunned by some of the answers to these intriguing questions.
This controversial new work from one of entertainment's most respected, veteran writers is a brisk, must-read eBook for those who fall into either camp.
