Joseph Kahn, who brought his battle rap satire “Bodied” to the Toronto Film Festival, discussed working with Taylor Swift and people’s obsession with “celebrity warfare,” at the Variety Studio Presented by AT&T on Saturday.
“The biggest insult anyone throws at her is that she’s manipulative,” he said about the “Look What You Made Me Do” singer. “What does that mean?

Is that manipulative or is that just being smart?”
