Pop Star Bleeding Fans Dry, TV Journalist Claims!!!

Taylor Swift‘s treatin’ her fans like livestock, one prominent journalist says … ’cause she says the pop star’s milking the Swifties like they’re a bunch of cows!
Ashley Bornancin — a TV journo who hosts the popular show “Behind the Headlines” — joined us on “TMZ Live” Wednesday … and, she said this album is not the show-stopping hit that she and many other fans were expecting.
Take a listen for yourself … Ashley says the album feels rushed — and, she jokes it’s almost like T-Swift spent more time promoting the album than actually working on the tracks.
She says the business of Taylor Swift — between multiple CDs at Target featuring different acoustic songs the star revealed using a conspicuous countdown clock, to merchandise she’s selling in her shop — is starting to run over the fans who prop it up.
The way Ashley puts it … Taylor Swift’s just a farmer milking her Swifties — filling up a bucket with more and more cash with each pull!
Ashley says she’s especially concerned about families on a budget who might spend too much money just because a child in the house says they desperately need the new sweater, four different CDs, or more.
Bornancin adds there’s some good news though … ’cause she says fans are finally speaking out against the way Taylor’s taking them to the bank … calling her out on social media for the quality and commercialization of the album.
Bottom line … even some of Taylor’s fans are pissed about peeking behind the curtain at “The Life of a Showgirl” — ’cause they feel it’s all about squeezing another dollar out of them.
