Taylor Swift Hit with Backlash from Other Pop Star's Fans After 'Nasty' Album Move

Share

Pop sensation Taylor Swift released three new digital downloads of her “The Tortured Poets Department” on Friday, but the release brought finger pointing and calls of dirty tricks from fans of another popular artist.

On the same day that Swift debuted her new digital download, fellow pop star Billie Eilish dropped her new album, “Hit Me Hard And Soft.”

This did not seem like an accident to Eilish fans, who are accusing Swift of spoiling Eilish’s album release, the U.K.’s Daily Mail reported.

Eilish fans fear that Swift’s songs will cut into the downloads that Eilish might have seen otherwise.

One X user called Swift “nasty” for releasing her tunes at the same time Ellish did.

Two X users noted that Eillish even delayed her release so as not to step on the release by singer Ariana Grande. The first wrote, “love how billie said she’d wait till ariana released eternal sunshine to release her album & here’s taylor mass releasing to block billie…mind u she just released an album with 31 tracks…just greedy.”

Do you like Taylor Swift?

Another wrote, “meanwhile Billie purposefully waited for Ariana to release her album so she can have her moment but Tayfraud does this and has been doing this to her peers.”

Yet another bashed Swift for being positioned as a champion of women, writing, “the same day as billie’s release……. and yall swear that taylor is a girl’s girl.”

Billie Eillish herself also made a point to note that she waited to drop her album until Ariana Grande had some time in the spotlight.

The Daily Mail also pointed out that this is not the first time that Swift stepped on another artist’s release. Swift also put out a major release at the same time Katy Perry did in June 2017.

At the time, Perry played down any industry rivalry and insisted, “I don’t know, I can only do me,” the Mail reported.

“All I need to say to [Taylor Swift] is I love her, and God bless her on her journey,” Perry added.

Still, Eillish has taken barbs of her own by releasing multiple vinyl versions of the same album and accused of doing so just to boost sales.

According to WNKS, Eillish released eight different versions of her “Happier Than Ever” album. each with different color vinyl and packaging.

Eillish also released five different versions of the latest, “Hit Me Hard And Soft.”


A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:

 

I heard a chilling comment the other day: “We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.” 

 

That wasn’t said by a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday prophet. No, former U.S. national security advisor Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn said that to the founder of The Western Journal, Floyd Brown.

 

Gen. Flynn’s warning means that the 2024 election is the most important election for every single living American. If we lose this one to the wealthy elites who hate us, hate God, and hate what America stands for, we can only assume that 248 years of American history and the values we hold dear to our hearts may soon vanish.

 

The end game is here, and as Benjamin Franklin said, “We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.”

 

All of this means that without you, it’s over. We have the platform, the journalists, and the experience to fight back hard, but Big Tech is strangling us through advertising blacklists, shadow bans, and algorithms. Did you know that we’ve been blacklisted by 90% of advertisers? Without direct support from you, our readers, we can’t continue the fight.

 

Can we count on your support? It may not seem like much, but a Western Journal Membership can make all the difference in the world because when you support us directly, you cut Big Tech out of the picture. They lose control. 

 

A monthly Western Journal Membership costs less than one coffee and breakfast sandwich each month, and it gets you access to ALL of our content — news, commentary, and premium articles. You’ll experience a radically reduced number of ads, and most importantly you will be vitally supporting the fight for America’s soul in 2024.

 

We are literally counting on you because without our members, The Western Journal would cease to exist. Will you join us in the fight? 

 

Sincerely,

Josh Manning
