Taylor Swift, Beyonce, And Barbie Movie Blamed For More Women Initiating Splits!

What do Taylor Swift and Beyonce going on tour have in common with the Barbie movie’s popularity? All three share blame for more women breaking up with boyfriends or divorcing their husbands, according to a new report.

Find out how a famous celebrity divorce attorney linked the increase in divorces and breakups to the singers’ tours and Barbie film. And keep reading to discover how Hollywood’s relationships have fared amid the actors’ and writers’ strikes as well.

Barbie – Blamed For Divorce Increase

Blame it on Barbie. The popular movie, along with world tours from Taylor Swift and Beyonce, have inspired an increase in breakups, claims celebrity divorce lawyer Laura Wasser.

Her client list includes Ariana Grande, Kevin Costner and Britney Spears, according to People.

And Wasser believes that the pop music singers, Barbie movie, and Hollywood 2023 Writers And Actors’ strikes also played a role in more divorces. “Something going on with a lot of my clients and what I’m seeing here in Southern California is that we’re in the middle of one of the worst strikes in history for the writers and the actors,” noted the attorney.

“So you’ve also got people who have more time on their hands. They’re angry about our reproductive rights getting rolled back, they’re feeling their power by going to see Barbie and Taylor and Beyonce,” added Wasser. “And they’re like, ‘I don’t need this. I’m the one making this money and I’m not comfortable, not working, and have this spouse who’s either also not working or never was working.’ A lot of people have said, ‘I’m out.’ So it’s compounded by what’s going on here economically.”
