1Since music is a good way to express emotions of all kinds, of course some songs will be about [[DieForOurShip how the bitch/asshole dares to stand in the way of True Love. . .]]

5* Even if Music/AvrilLavigne denies that her song "Girlfriend" is about this and [[ParodyRetcon claims it's actually a]] TakeThat to the trope, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iT5Ez_qxpc0 the video has more than one whiff of it]]. Because the "cool punk girl" can completely throw herself at the feet of the bespectacled girl's boyfriend, steal him from her ''and'' [[HumiliationConga drive her through the dirt just for being there]], huh?
6* Taylor Swift's "You Belong With Me" has shades of this, with the UnluckyChildhoodFriend (and borderline StalkerWithACrush) complaining about her cheerleader rival who "doesn't know your story like I do". In the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2Mjp0ozGLo video]]) the girlfriend is portrayed as a very typical and shallow AlphaBitch who is defeated and humiliated by the [[DoggedNiceGuy Dogged Nice Girl]] and her beau's True Love. Yup, like in the Lavigne example, both are played by Taylor Swift herself, but it's still annoying.
7* Used [[MurderTheHypotenuse literally]], in Good Charlotte's "Bloody Valentine".
8-->Standing over him, he begged me not to do
9-->What I knew I had to do 'cause I'm so in love with you
10* Threatened in the obsessive-fan song "David Duchovny, Why Don't You Love Me" by Music/BreeSharp:
11-->Creator/DavidDuchovny, I know you could love me\
12I'm sweet and I'm cuddly\
13[[MurderTheHypotenuse I'm gonna kill Scully]]
14* {{Music/Voltaire}} has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YUFFMA4V-w "Ex-Lover's Lover"]], in which
15-->I wait for the day when I'll finally defile\
16The bodies of my ex-lover's lovers\
17I'll pile high to the sky\
18The bodies of my ex-lover's lovers
19* "Get Rid Of That Girl" by The Donnas. It's [[LyricalDissonance a fast paced and catchy song]] about [[MurderTheHypotenuse a girl beating up and killing the girlfriend of a boy she likes.]] The song even ends with the background singers chanting, [[MadnessMantra "Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!"]]
20* Poor, poor [[Music/{{Vocaloid}} Meiko]]. Most Kaito/Miku shippers constantly call her 'abusive to Kaito' or 'slutty' because she is shipped with Kaito. And Miku doesn't get any better treatment from Kaito/Meiko fans. And [[YaoiFangirl Kaito/Gakupo fans]] are just plain FanDumb towards both. What makes this particularly annoying is that Vocaloid has no canon...
21** Len fangirls are pretty terrifying when it comes to ships involving him, but the treatment poor Rin has to go through trumps them all.
22** And even Len/Rin shippers get in on the bashing of [[TheCutie Miku]] and [[{{Tsundere}} Neru]], and [[AlasPoorVillain let's not even get into]] what kind of bashing [[{{Yandere}} Tei]] gets.
23** [[HetIsEw Gakupo]] gets bashed for getting in the way of [[LesYay Miku/Luka]] very often, and is generally made into a stereotypical homophobic abusive JerkAss so Luka can flee into Miku's arms. The same, minus the 'homophobic', happens with Luka/Kaito fics. [[CycleOfRevenge And then the Gakupo/Luka fanfic does the same with Kaito…]]
24** All of them are not help by the fact that by design, the Vocaloids are blank slates and their personalities are determined by the fans.
25* In the K-pop music industry, any mention of a celebrity dating ''anyone'', or even just admiring someone else, can be stirred up into a 'scandal.' Some fans take their idols being in relationships that they don't approve of very, very badly.
26** For instance, in 2014, it was revealed that [[Music/GirlsGeneration Taeyeon]] and [[Music/{{EXO}} Baekhyun]] were dating. Cue Taeyeon's Instagram and other social media being FLOODED with hateful comments ripping into her age, looks, singing ability, you name it, and even Baekhyun got some hate too.
