Taylor Swift Responds To Accusations That She Stole ‘Folklore’ Merch Designs From A Black Business Owner(via Fox411)

"Yesterday, we were made aware of a complaint that the specific use of the word 'the' before 'folklore album' on some of the ‘folklore’ album merchandise was of concern," the singer's rep said. "Absolutely no merchandise using 'the' before the words 'folklore album' has been manufactured or sent out."

The statement continued: “In good faith, we honored her request and immediately notified everyone who had ordered merchandise with the word 'the' preceding 'folklore album' that they will now receive their order with the design change."Rasool later took to social media in response to Swift’s team’s statement.

“I commend Taylor's team for recognizing the damage the merchandise caused to my company @TheFolklore's brand,” she wrote on Twitter. “I recognize that she has been a strong advocate for women protecting their creative rights, so it was good to see her team is on the same page." Rasool added: “It was a great first step and we are in conversation right now with Taylor’s team about the next steps to make this situation right.”Swift, 30, responded directly to The Folklore owner on Twitter and said, “Amira, I admire the work you’re doing and I’m happy to make a contribution to your company and to support the Black in Fashion Council with a donation @thefolklore @amirarasool @bifcglobal #blackinfashioncouncil.

Fox411 It's just text. I would understand if it were a art design but this is a bit stupid, but whatever she altered it.. moving on.

Fox411 Busted.

Fox411 So Taylor was made aware and immediately stopped selling the merch. Yet this woman says her corrective action is a good first step. Taylor did her part. She doesn’t owe this woman anything else. We move on.
