Yesterday, we reported that Taylor Swift probably have lied about a $25 million mansion that she bought in Southern California. We still don’t know exactly why Swift chose to deny the purchase, but she’s been mum on the issue ever since she was busted by TMZ. Some have claimed that the singer needs to keep her real estate holdings under wraps in order to preserve a modicum of privacy. Others have pointed out that if that’s her agenda, she should adopt a policy of refusing to confirm or deny any real estate deals, rather than dredging up the issue and accusing the press of lying, as she did in this case. In any event, this isn’t the first time that Taylor has been accused of being less than truthful with her fans. Back in January,  Taylor’s first guitar teacher revealed that many of the details regarding Taylor’s idyllic childhood are complete fabrications. Now, several media outlets are unearthing past instances in which Taylor appears to have purposely misled her fans, including another case where Swift lied about buying a house . In 2013, when Taylor was dating Conor Kennedy , there were reports that she purchased a house near his family’s home (Conor was still in high school at the time) in Cape Cod.

And as you may have guessed, it later turned out that she did buy the house, and she was “actively spotted” there on numerous occasions. Obviously Taylor is entitled to make whatever deals she wants with her vast fortune, and she can and should do what she feels is necessary to protect her privacy. That said, her habit of going on the offensive and placing blame whenever she’s caught in a lie is a bit ugly.
