first like half of the article is about Britney Spears. Second half is when she starts to talk about Ezra. No names mentioned but everyone on Twitter is saying it’s Ezra and his podcast merch mfg has even made a statement and stopped production for now
edit:
S/o @americana and reddit for the summary
the ezra situation explained
tw/cw: rape, sexual abuse, sexual assault, grooming
I’ve seen a lot of people confused about this so I’m going to do a quick summarization of what’s happened so others can be informed on this very gross situation.
On 2/23 Tavi Gevinson published an article on the recent conversation about the #FreeBritney movement. In the article, she talks about her own experience with an older man who was 30 years old when they dated (she was 18 at the time). Tavi says that he would often use her for s***and push her sexual boundaries. She says that this person took advantage of her while she was drunk and often coerced her into having sex. She also mentions that he now has a child. Read the article here: google.com/amp/s/www.thecut.com/amp/2021/02/tavi-gevinson-britney-spears-was-never-in-control.html
This article lines up with another piece she wrote for Rookie Mag back in 2016 in which she mirrors the same relationship dynamic with an older man in a powerful position. Read here: rookiemag.com/2016/09/the-infinity-diaries
Since 2016, it’s been speculated that Tavi and Ezra dated. Read a past Reddit thread about it here: reddit.com/r/Vampireweekend/comments/52p5jj/by_tavi_gevinsonapparently_about_ezra_allegedly
Further proof that they dated that someone in the other thread posted was a story Ezra told on TC about Jay Z telling Ezra to dance with his “lady friend”. This story is mirrored by Tavi in another Rookie Mag piece, read here: rookiemag.com/2016/09/the-infinity-diaries-6/2
There have been many photos of them taken together, one in particular that points to something more: twitter.com/oliviacraighead/status/1207417922425106435?s=21
Although she has yet to publicly accuse Ezra, all signs point to him in the articles she’s written.
Edit #1 2/24: Clarified Tati’s claims, added a trigger/content warning, and clarified that the man now has a child instead of having the child recently.
Cuomo the same day?
this is the big issue
simply having s***with an adult who is 18 is not an issue regardless of age, it’s when repeated and (quasi-)predatory behavior begins to show itself
Exactly.
This is why I also think the legal age at which people can star in p*** shouldn't be the same as the age of consent. It should be somewhere around 21.
All these "barely legal, 18 years old" type p*** videos are so f***ing disgusting
Ezra is my nigga we dm each other once in awhile we talked about the love below Sunday
It is known he dated like a 19 year old girl while she was in college I remember reading in this blog that when they went out she ordered a drink and was hoping she wouldn’t get i.d I wonder if this the same girl
Ok it is the same girl nah Ezra good I feel like she’s just bitter about the relationship ending on her birthday and trying to get her moment now she wrote a blog about it before and never said any of these things but now in cancel culture era she’s probably reimagining the past
at this moment i'm convinced any dude sexually active pre 2017 (famous or not) has caused a potential me-too moment for someone while not being aware of it.
Exactly so we gonna cancel every man
S***and dating is a private matter man. It’s messy, confusing, akward, people have their things.
Can we stop with the public politicizing of people’s relationships
If there’s a problem then can we trust the people in the relationship to sort it out and if they need help they reach out to their family and friends
Obviously s*** like rape and pediphelia is different
Who tf cares that he wanted to try freaky s***
I detest/am neutral about eating p**** yet ill always do it cus ik no girl will stay w my ass if i dont
Does that make me a victim of assault
Unless it’s not rape, violent assualt or pediophelia can We f***ing stop with this s***!
“Gaslighting” “mental abuse” “uncomfortable” once i see these I automatically ignore the story and wish more people would too

They really locking up all the weird white boys y’all Stan so much, first Shia now this
We dm each other on ig like once/every other week and whenever I see something he would like to wear that pops up on my explorer page I tag him in it, and he usually ends up liking my comment and buys the shirt or whatever. same goes for whenever I see some cool post on a mood board page. I just don’t like he doesn’t follow me back, It’s like he’s ashamed of our friendship. Now that I think about it nah he ain’t my nigga...

bro you too old to be thinking some celeb is your friend cause he’s nice enough to reply to you on ig
and pretty sure dude who quoted you was more concerned about the n word more than the validity of your “friendship”
