The pressure is on Harvey Weinstein‘s friends and associates to condemn the horrors he forced the women around him to endure.
One said friends? The chart-topping Taylor Swift.
Calling her out for saying nothing? Vanessa Carlton.
Enraged by Swift’s silence on the matter Carlton used Instagram to berate her.

Carlton’s diss hit the net as several actors and actresses have come forward to detail their harrowing tales of molestation at the hands of powerful men in the industry.
I’ve had my ass grabbed by older, powerful men, I’ve had them corner me in inappropriate sexual conversations when I was much younger…

She’ll speak when the next single is ready and we’re days away from reputation being released.
If y’all haven’t caught on by now that Taylor Swift is fake as a four dollar bill, then there is no hope for you. She uses “women empowerment” when it is convenient for her.
If Vanessa Carlton wants to disrespect some one for not speaking up, how about Obama and Michelle, They took hundreds of thousand of dollars he bundled, and sent their daughter off to intern with him, but have said nothing.
Good point!
The were one of the first to issue a statement condemning him
Don’t do it Nessa lol…Tay Tay will drag you a thousand miles!
She’s not obligated to speak on the matter, people are so f****** entitled these days.
Vanessa is wrong and being a bully here! There is no “moral or ethical obligation” for anyone to express their feelings in social media.
taylor isn’t obligated per se, but on the other hand, she’s QUICK to scream “feminism” to get her name in the news and sell records. so…
That’s my thoughts EXACTLY!!
She NEVER takes a stand on any social topics when she could use her huge platform for good. But no, like Vanessa pointed out correctly, she doesn’t wanna alienate her bible-belt redneck fans. Narcissistic fake a– b—-.
Vanessa Carlton did not come to Miss Swifts defense during her sexual harassment trial against the Denver DJ.
Lbecause know body even knew about it until it was in the news in court
Electrikblue When he first started his law suit against her for getting fired in late 2014 it was in the news, was in again a in early 2015 when she filed a counter suit. It was in the news again in 2015 when she gave her deposition, and again when she filed to make him save the audio files he had from his getting fired (which he did not do, said he busted his phone, and his computer stopped working, and he lost his external backup drive). It was in again in 2016 when she filed to keep the picture secret until the trial, and again when he released the picture to TMZ and it was in the news constantly for the month before the trial. All of those stories were on ABC,NBC,CBS,FOX, and most other cable stations. Oh Rachel Platten also came out supporting Miss Swift before the trial and again after the trial.
Vanessa Carlton needs to know how it feels to be sexually harassed. A person who chooses to deal with it personally go through a lot emotions as is a person who speaks up. She should be more empathetic to everyone involved.
Absolutely no one deserves to be sexually harassed.
Taylor Swift is an INDUSTRY B_ITCH. She is only CONCERNED ABOUT FAME. She could care less what other women were r**** or molested or harrassed, She’s fake.
U sound real upset over somebody who doesn’t even know you. Take a nap.
Is this a surprise? Taylor never speaks out in situations like this. Look at her silence on Black Lives Matter. I’m not sure what Vanessa was expecting
Umm but she’s not black so she should stay out of it… dumb ass.
Black Lives Matter is a fake group. If Black Lives really Mattered to them they would be in Chicago trying to talk blacks out of killing blacks. They kill over 700 of them selves a year in Chicago.
If Taylor has never experienced harassment from him, then why would she speak out?! They’re wanting her to speak on a situation that she may know nothing about.
Please, Taylor is not about to say sh*t with an album release right around the corner lol.
Let me Think, How many came out supporting Miss Swift in her sexual harassment law suit against the Denver DJ? OH yea Kesha, who Miss Swift supported along with many other stars in her harassment case. Kesha was about it. Everyone else was strangely quiet.
Most people who are primarily in the Music business have said nothing about it, Most people in the movie industry said anything in support of either Kesha or Miss Swift
Truth tea!
This Swiftie is hard at work acting like Taylucifer didn’t get support for her case. She has Media support, fans worldwide support and COUNTLESS celebrities support. I mean Rachel Platten, Kesha, James Cordon, Shonda Rhimes, Nelly Furtado, Lens Dunham, Ashley Judd, George Takei, Gretchen Carlson, Montel Williams, Amber Heard etc etc etc all tweeted in support of Taylor. I can’t with Swifties always painting this victim image of Taylor. Face it! She is nothing more than a money hungry white woman who never uses her platform to speak on issues that matter. She stays silent and when it’s convient for her she speaks on them. Like now that everyone is calling out Trump she conviently has a Trump diss on her album? Or how she waited until she was clear of 1989 era to voice her opinion on BLM. Taylor is nothing more than a label puppet who is used because she is a cash cow. She speaks when they tell her to and continues using manipulative tactics to milk as much cash as possible from her fans.
So many of these comments aged worse than spoiled milk… I’m glad Taylor took a stand when she felt comfortable (and, spoiler alert, it had nothing to do with a song release LOL)
