14 THE STAR ENTERTAINMENT • Monday, September 16, 2024 @JamaicaStar www.facebook.com/JamaicaStar • www.jamaica-star.com D onald Trump has declared he despises Taylor Swift. The US presidential runner, 78, hit out at the Shake it Off singer, 34, in yet another of his furious posts on his social media platform Truth Social five days after the performer announced in a long Instagram post she would be voting for his Democrat White House race rival Kamala Harris, 59, in America’s November election. Donald raged online yesterday in an all-capitalised message: “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!” Along with announcing online she was supporting Kamala as US president, Taylor urged her millions of ‘Swiftie’ fans to research the election and register to vote. She included with her Kamala-backing message a link to vote.gov to help them start to study up on politics. Donald lashed out at Taylor after saying he had “no idea” what his reaction was to the singer’s message supporting Kamala after the pair of rivals last week faced off in a TV debate. Taylor’s Instagram message drove more than 400,000 visitors to the vote.gov site in under a day. She said: “I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and (her vice-president nominee) TimWalz in the 2024 Presidential Election. “If you haven’t already, now is a great time to do your research on the issues at hand and the stances these candidates take on the topics that matter to you the most… as a voter, I make sure to watch and read everything I can about their proposed policies and plans for this country.” Taylor also used her note to blast images generated by artificial intelligence that were reportedly shared by Donald on Truth Social that had suggested she was endorsing him for president. She said: “Recently I was made aware that AI of ‘me’ falsely endorsing Donald Trump’s presidential run was posted to his site. “It really conjured up my fears around AI and the dangers of spreading misinformation. “It brought me to the conclusion that I need to be very transparent about my actual plans for this election as a voter. “The simplest way to combat misinformation is with the truth. I’ve done my research, and I’ve made my choice. Your research is all yours to do, and the choice is yours to make.” In a dig at Donald’s running mate JD Vance, 40, and his infamous jibe at women who didn’t have children, the singer signed off her post as “Taylor Swift, Childless Cat Lady.” Trump declares hatred for Taylor Swift K im Kardashian has opened up about the struggles of being a parent of a child with a learning difference. The 43-year-old reality TV star — whose daughter North West, 11, previously revealed she had been diagnosed with dyslexia — shared a video on her Instagram Stories of her pal Lauren Sánchez, speaking on The View about her children’s book, The Fly Who Flew to Space , and her own struggles with dyslexia as a child. Kim wrote: “ I’m reposting this not bc she’s my friend and I love her, but because every mom who has struggled with their kids with dyslexia or any learning difference needs to hear that it will be okay.” North revealed her diagnosis during a TikTok livestream last year. She said: “Guys, I have dyslexia. Do you even know what that is?” Kim responded: “Northie, you sure are spilling the tea on here,” and later asked her to end the livestream, saying, “You are just saying way too much. I purposely don’t talk about stuff that you are going through.” Meanwhile, North — whose father is controversial rapper Kanye West — previously revealed she is already thinking about being a businesswoman like her parents and is eyeing taking over their respective businesses, Yeezy and Skims, one day. In her first solo cover interview with i-D magazine last year, she said: “One day I want to own Yeezy and Skims, and I want to be a business owner.” Until then, she’d like to earn some pocket money walking dogs to pay for her art tools. She said: “When I’m, like, 13, I want to walk dogs, to make money to buy art supplies, because everything around here is so expensive.” North told the outlet her biggest style iconic is herself. She added: “I love doing hair, and I got to do my own edges for this shoot.” Kim Kardashian opens up about raising a child with dyslexia Trump AP P hotos Kim Kardashian AP Taylor Swift
