Tina and Amy: We were just joking, Taylor!We all might have laughed when Tina Fey and Amy Poehler gave Taylor Swift a ribbing at the Golden Globes, but it seems their wisecrack wasn't that funny to the country singer. In January, the comedic hosting duo called out the actively dating Swift, telling her to "stay away" from Michael J. Fox's son. "She needs some me time, to learn about herself," Fey said at the time. When Vanity Fair brought up Fey and Poehler's quip with Swift, the 23-year-old seemed to suggest that Fey and Poehler are going to roast for their comedy.
“You know, Katie Couric is one of my favorite people," Swift told the magazine while chatting about mean girls and the Globes joke. "Because she said to me she had heard a quote [from Madeleine Albright] that she loved, that said, ‘There’s a special place in hell for women who don’t help other women.’” Fey and Poehler have both responded to Swift's statement, and Poehler actually agrees with Swift. Well, kind of. "I feel bad if she was upset. I am a feminist, and she is a young and talented girl," the "Parks & Rec" star told The Hollywood Reporter. "That being said, I do agree I am going to hell. But for other reasons. Mostly boring tax stuff." Fey, meanwhile, emphasized that they really were kidding when they put the spotlight on Swift's turbulent love life. "I did not see that one coming," Fey told "Entertainment Tonight." "It was a joke. It was a lighthearted joke." Besides, she added, "If anyone was going to get mad at us, I thought it would be James Cameron." |

NOT OOB
i am an ardent country music fan...it is a great mystery to me why taylor swift is even considered country....first, she needs to get over herself; she's not all that. second, her songs are all one-note, same-sounding drivel, mostly liked by tweens.....
whenever one of her songs comes on my radio, i hit the mute.........can't wait until she disappears....
he's in his late 40's....i like country music i listen too all music that has meaning....i was in the choir we are taught too respect all types of music....
24 hours a day....give the viewers a break already...

took the bait...add it too th list - 830ish - told you she is going to hand it to us..
you were taylor swift this morning...changed your mind?...
It was a joke! Taylor Swift needs to get over herself. She is so overrated. Next thing you know she'll be writing a stupid song about it. Now Tina Fey and Amy Poehler have real talent.
purple
beautiful people....he's so ded that night.
dancing with the stars oh yea...
DANCING WITH ME AND JANINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As I recall, they gave that dim witted girl the best of all possible advice: to take some "me time", learn about herself, and stay out of relationships for a while.
modern up girl
i will talk too him forever...he's a darling man and i adore him.
Tina and Amy, Taylor Swift is never ever ever ever ever going to talk to you again. oh well, there's no room in hell for goody two shoes with no sense of humor anyway.
i adore that silly man.
its alright but geeze–just ask for goodness sakes.
Hey, serial affairs with young boys is no joking matter with Taylor.
that's why your not good at it sweetie.
agreed no talent whatsoever and a bore...
It's funny, because it true. She a good singer, but talented not so sure.
Who cares what this 16 year old ding-bat has to say? She practically has a PHD in getting dumped, writing a song about it, dating someone else, and then getting dumped again. She's obviously high maintenance and needy. Hardly a role model for ANYONE, let alone young girls.
hi there.
Maybe she needs to realize that if she has problems with all these guys she has dated....maybe the problem isn't really them.
A joke is only a joke when everyone is laughing. This was not a joke, and them Michael J. Fox had to chime in and make it even worse. He of all people should not be poking fun at people.
And why shouldn't Michael Fox make a joke? Why, him, "of all people"? Because he has a disease? That makes him unjokable in your eyes. Both you and that little twit Taylor need to grow up! Sheesh.
F Swift anyway...
Thank you , some one said it.
usher t. or chris brown t
If you don't want the whole world talking about your love life – stop making it the subject of all your songs.
Once you throw it out there it's no longer "private"
Whether a joke or not, Tina and Amy are much older than Taylor and should have known better; not everything is a joke! Besides, Taylor is a young girl and they were quite rude to her. Tina and Amy have no class
Much agreed. I like Tina Fey, and Amy Poehler, but I don't think it was appropriate to have make that joke.
Taylor writes, dances, and sings. In a 100 years time, people will be thinking of her like we do with the likes of Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, Elvis Presley, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, the greats. If Taylor isn't already a legend and already considered amongst the greats, she is almost certain to be in the years ahead, just on record sales alone. Is this how we treat legends?

You must really be a troll! Nobody in their right mind could possibly think that. I think Swift will self destruct eventually, marry some really young loser, have a dozen kids, then get her own honey boo boo style reality show. I think there is a country song in there someplace.
she's way too political
if this is Swifts reaction to a joke, can you imagine being in a relationship with her? Maybe that is why all her relationships fail. her boyfriend would tell her a joke, she didnt get it or didnt like it, flips out, breaks up and writes another horrible song about how it is all his fault. Yeah she is a typical 2000 era female!
true girlfriend so true...
@Anthony I agree with everything you said, except your last line. There is nothing typical about TS. She does not, even remotely, represent most females. If you truly believe that about women, you are hooking up with the wrong ones.
WOMEN OF THE WORLD.
the 2 tripes
we did it . file it for the future...
just file it so we have it in case we need it.....i have all the other stuff they did too me
too ezy...she will give us 3 and 4
the 24 hour mocking you did the other night ....you gave us amy...your not that swift.
we located amy....SEE
thanks.
I love Tina and Amy and of course my cousin. All are strong women who have learned to get ahead in a world increasingly dominated by people with giant butts. If I were a writer, I would have them exchange barbs for a few more months and then have all 3 of them guest host for Saturday Night Live for a Season Premier show. It is difficult to close your eyes and listen to any one of them without smiling. Their voices alone, through music or the humor, is what really stands out. I am careful though to say that I detest Ageism, which is when someone of one age disrespects someone of a different age because of the difference in their age. It is 2013, people need to take a stand against it.
we are taking a stand against it and we will address them.
count me out. the buck stops here.
is not what we call "people oriented"
you just know already that's why your so confident
the little virgin is in the palm of my hands...she will give it too us...we don't have too go get it...
unplug please.
Says Bristol Twit Palin-America's favorite dancing cow.
the little virgin is in the palm of my hands...she will give it too us....now unplug.
Nobody can stand her...she created her own mess with the blogs...they all know what taylor is about...
Now please move on for today...
everyone knows they all "read".
GET HER
a hacker is trying too tell us how WONDERFUL it is...
i have never met this women MY LIFE....i have the time we need too focus on this disruptive person
and guys bang her....gotta give her credit...
for months...YOUR DISGUSTING AND DESERVE EVERY SINGLE INSULT GRANTED TOO SSNOOKIE.
Nobody is buring sweetie...only the "habit" will
Not the begger Taylor Swift-
you have no charisma and as the i's said months ago...your an embarrasment too women by your
"habit"
and we know we will never be you...that's a must in our women's society-we don't want our children near
hackers.
more kate gosselin...i would NOT give her the time of day
I don't understand why anyone would be so critical of Taylor (Swift). It is normal for anyone at the age to date. It is normal for anyone to breakup when the relationship is not going well. If the individuals in the relationship decide to write a song after their breakup, so be it. It is a healthy way to cope and get over it.
I rather see her (Taylor Swift) break up with a guy, then to see her get married and get divorce later. This would be worst.
Taylor (Swift) has a been a better role model than many stars we see today. Whether it is getting tattoos, piercings, bad language, smoking, drinking, etc.. there aren't many good role models around like Taylor any more. She has done much good through her numerous activities and interactions with her fans and brought tremendous joy to lots of people. This is some thing I hope people remember keep in mind too when they criticise her. In the world we live in today and the kind of celebrities we see these days, thank goodness for someone like Taylor.
how sweet.
There is nothing inherently immoral about getting a tattoo, but I would say that I wouldn't want my kids running around saying that others will burn in hell because their feelings are hurt
Someone gets a little too emotional about everything it seems
she's trash
"only the habit will" and soon too
Not too swift.
My understanding is that her recent hit "We're never ever getting back together" is about her relationship with Jake Gyllenhal. Wasn't he three or four boyfriends ago? If she is still working through her feelings from that breakup, it's not a surprise her subsequent relationships didn't pan out. I don't think she's dealing with her feelings. I think she's just trying to sell records and I'm OK with that. If you want to express yourself, write a poem. If you are going to write songs about your breakups and sell a few million copies, than don't be so thin skinned. I'm guessing that this "poor me" response from her will sell a few more records.
tomorrow morning you will see approximately 5,000 blogs, then it will act like she accomplished something or conquered the world...that's when we have too tell her the "other" thing i did for a living and then the blog silence
will happen....
She does have too get over herself-she doesn't hide it well anymore
Good lord! She needs to get over herself.
im a 33 year old woman and a big fan of taylor swift- her music empowers women and helps women to heal from heartbreak that they go through with men. im totally on taylor's side. she is not immature for her age.
I don't know what's funnier, that you think young girls should see her as a role model, or that you're a 33-yar-old fan of Taylor Swift.
Common Sense- lol...
we need to babysit and now we have the time to do so....
For the record, I'm not a fan of Taylor Swift, but a huge Fey fan. However, I thought it was a low blow to not onlyTaylor but to the careers of Fey and Poehler- they were way too talented to spout a joke that's been repeated time after time- it just made them look unoriginal. Fey totally sounded like a character from Mean Girls. Also, if you're going to level the playing field and be "true" fems, why not poke fun at Clooney....that never happens (until the Oscars by a man). Hopefully 2013 will bring better material from Fey and Poehler.
the kardashians are looking for a hacker.
The more Taylor Swift has gotten older and emerged from childhood, the more her music has become appropriate for post-toddlers and pre-tens (not a misspelling).
taylor's blogging career is over .... it will be "best"
thsi girl has been ridculed and raked over the coals for months about her love life. I think this was the last straw and she's fed up and is finaly standing up for herself! I say good for her! I'm sure they pulled her quote out of context to get headlines anyway. But frankly Tina Feya nd Amy Poler just added to the already band wagon jumping of "Let's all hate Taylor now" thats been spreading like wildfire all over the internet. Sad really... the entertainment business sucks. They build you up to tear you down.
so long...
Hate has nothing to do with this. When you are in entertainment field, the media follows your every move. She supplies the story line by her actions. If she doesn't want all this notoriety, good or bad, then she should get out of the business. It is part of being a celebrity. It was a joke, and it was right on, too. She just sounds like a whiny, little girl.
T S = Taylor Swift = Turd Sandwich.
Taylor Swift is an even bigger waste of oxygen than Bieber. She is a whiny untallented plain looking zero.
TS needs to lighten up and grow a sense of humor and grow up as well – she is very immature for her age.
I wouldnt be surprised if her next song is about "mean girls"
when you over hear a conversation (fake Janine) make sure you say the whole thing so the person understands what you mean.
I say when you are nothing but a headliner, then there's probably going to be a good chance some comedienne is going to run with it. LOL
The odd thing is the joke was advice to Taylor to get to know herself before getting into another relationship. But to take it to that level I guess proves she really doesn't know herself and should follow the advice, joke or not.
knows what too she's old enough now....there are others who need to dig in and try to figure why they are so bitter and jealous and work on themselves–
knows what too do and she's old enough now....there are others who need to dig in and try to figure why they are so bitter and jealous and work on themselves–
They actually told Michael J. Fox to keep his son away from Taylor – which I thought was hilarious! Taylor embarrasses herself by writing a song about every guy she dated and how bad they were to her. If she is going to write about it then she needs to be able to take a joke about it.
when you were hacked in this morning you did not way the rest of the information
when you were hacked in this morning you did not mention the rest of the conversation....
and gaga will have too deal with The Kardashian Reunion....
Some people are really thin skinned. It was a joke, but the absolute truth. If you are going to be in entertainment, Taylor, you'd better take the good with the bad. Whining about it does not make you look like an adult. Hey, maybe you could write a song about it. That would show them!
If it really bothers her she should ask herself why. Ask herself if it's a case of the truth hurting. If it is, learn from it and try to better herself. If not, take it with a grain of salt. Whining about it will only make her seem over sensitive and childish.
I got to admit. This girl really bothers me. She just seems so immature for her age. The sad thing is that her actions do speak louder than words. She just reminds me of a teenager, not a 23 year old. Wow! That was very thought provoking, Triumph. I'm impressed. lol..
Well I did study abnormal psychology in college. Sometimes I can be deep and insightful when it comes to the actions of others. Now I must go poop in the pockets of my neighbors pool table.
Oh Triumph, you never fail to amuse me. lol..
don't watch or talk about her.
hacking is not having a sense of humor...go manipulate yourself–your not my boyfriend looking at me.
Tired of hearing about Taylor Swift.
simple
The Kardashians continue as usual...move along..
Attacking a young woman. Classy behaviour there ladies. Typical of the Hollywood liberal mentality of hate.
I would hardly call their brand of comedy "attacking".
Taylor Swift should learn to laugh at herself.
Everyone else does.
Ba-dum-tssssss
trying to make excuses for what she does....the usual guilt trip....
If she didn't write a song about every guy she dates about how bad humans they are, people wouldn't have anything to say... I am sure most of those guys are probably decent humans
you know the law better then we do...m...you really need to focus and get rid of her...
well seeing how you spelled the word Behaviour, instead of Behavior, i can assume you are from the UK. and i doubt any from there should talk about class and liberal mentality of hate, considering that wonderful Island gave us the Purtians. a classless, hatefilled Conservative lifestyle that saw the death of plenty of women by burning them at the stake.
it is always just a joke when you are not the butt of it.
Butt jokes are funny, no matter who you are.
