Stop asking about The Perfumed Garden. The answer is no, I'm making a stage piece. Taylor owns her movies, or she wouldn't be discussing Imagine Multimedia with us. You'd love to front like you own Mx. Swift and the Beatles, but you don't. My cease and desist letters from 2024 still apply in 2026. Read them and stop.

Waves of migration

Given we're all buying into the founder effect to explain tūrehu and other aspects of my skin and hair, I think this opens up the door to discussing multiple waves of migration from Polynesia to Te Ri

I'm the rare thing in 21st century musicals: I have original IP that's as good as the old stuff. Even Lin's record is slightly patchier than mine. Unfortunately, I'm not an ingenue. There's no co-songwriters or arrangers: it's entirely me. At 31, I know the value of my songs. It annoys you that Apple Corps made a cartoon, but it was very well-received in the global South. It wasn't a ripoff. It wasn't a remake. It was totally new. Shut up, piss off. Disney doesn't own my music, and I'm not interested. - Hollywood needs to piss off. I have a rabbi: I have people working with me. I'm not interested in Oscars or A-list fame. I'm interested in getting paid.

I'm not Taylor. I live in another country and there's no reason to move. Paul tried hard, but there's no legal way for me to enter the US or UK. That's my punishment for the anti-war films.
