TaraElla Under Fire from Selena Fans

Some Fans of Selena Gomez have accused TaraElla of 'repeatedly picking on Selena Gomez'. This comes after her latest article in her magazine column, titled 'Selena Gomez, Spring Breakers and my 90s Standards', which is at least the fourth time TaraElla has commented on Selena's recent image change.

Fans of TaraElla, however, have defended her, saying that many people out there have been concerned about how Hollywood culture has been rapidly changing in recent years, and TaraElla is not alone.

TaraElla today said that she didn't have any negative feelings towards Selena, and it was just that 'somebody had to say something about the obvious'.

TaraElla Stands by Miley, Wants Amanda Bynes to Get Help

TaraElla has long been a supporter of the works of Miley Cyrus. So regarding Miley's recent controversies, what does TaraElla have to say? That she will remain a role model, no matter what! "She is a role model because she supports equal rights for all, she is a role model because she shows how a grown-up person can still maintain close relationships with their family," TaraElla said in her blog.

Well said, we think!

She has also called for Amanda Bynes' fans to help her through what appears to be a rough patch. I think it's a good call. People should be helping people, not making fun of them.

TaraElla, SpringBreakers and Moral Stances

TaraElla's 10 Years of Marriage Equality Support Series

TaraElla, a long time supporter of marriage equality, is starting a series of posts titled '10 Years of Marriage Equality Support Series', (under her other pen-name, TaraJCHM), where she will explore her feelings as they developed over her 10 years of supporting marriage equality.

You can read the series here.

I think it's a very good idea. Many marriage equality supporters have only recently come on board, but the struggle is for the long haul. TaraElla shows everyone how one's connection with the cause can strengthen over time.

TaraElla, Lady Gaga, the Pope and Gay Marriage

Lady Gaga recently had this to say about the Pope's comments on Gay marriage:

"What the Pope thinks of being gay does not matter to the world. It matters to the people who like the Pope and follow the Pope. … It is not a reflection of all religious people."


And TaraElla had this to say:


"I guess that's correct and very important too. Many Catholics I know of don't have a problem with marriage equality. I guess in religion ultra-conservative elements are given too much airtime sometimes."

TaraElla, as usual, is much more polite, but I guess they are making the same point.

TaraElla Calls on Kelly Clarkson to Support Gay Marriage

Singer-songwriter and self-proclaimed LGBTI ally TaraElla has called on Kelly Clarkson to publicly support gay marriage. In her celebrity blog, she wrote a detailed entry recently about the topic.

"There was a time when I thought Kelly Clarkson would be the first American Idol to endorse gay marriage. After all, she has a lot of gay and lesbian fans from what I know - not something that often happens really because gay men and lesbians often have different music tastes," TaraElla said.

"Some people may think gay marriage is not an important topic, but as I recently wrote in my political column, marriage equality is a human rights issue and therefore arguably more important than any economic issue," TaraElla also said.

TaraElla has always been an avid LGBT rights supporter, even before she became popular with her blog, books and music in recent years. She has publicly supported gay marriage since 2003, according to her website.

TaraElla Says Katy Perry, Kesha and Chris Crocker are Notorious

Here's what she actually said:

"Let's get this right. Katy Perry, Kesha and Chris Crocker are not famous - they are notorious. The difference between being famous and being notorious needs to be maintained. All of these people do have their fans. But so do most notorious people. The key is that they have many more haters than fans, and they are widely known not because of some great attribute, but because of the haters they have and the controversy they cause."

You agree?
