“I did an interview in the guardian “saying no one cares about the charts but industry people and maybe Taylor swift fans” because no one plays the chart game like Taylor swift lol. She's literally the best at it and everyone knows that. It's not the read you guys think it is. And also…I care!!! Hihi. Best believe I will try to release at least two diffrent covers for my psychical on my next project after midnight sun. I said that because I feel like I have some cultural value right now in pop music, something I've never had to this level, but I'm not in a position to influence the charts:( lol :(And I still think you can be an amazing artist and not chart. Those two things are not mutually equal to me, and shouldn't be to any fans either. But… I still want number one! Please make midnight sun #1!!! Please!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT WOJKD BE SO MEGA PLZZZZ!!!!!”

She’s not wrong, nobody cares about charts more than drake fans and Swifties, it’s because they are the lowest common denominator
I’m so tired of everyone who mentions Taylor Swift having to put out a press release. Sickeningly boring.
People outside of this sub are ripping her to shreds over original quote. She literally says in the interview getting a number one leads to exciting new opportunities but she doesn’t want to play the chart game. Perfectly reasonable.
Labels and Swifties are chart obsessed. No lie detected.
Not even worth taking on Taylor swift fans anymore.
Death threat from taylor swift fans any% (world record)
I love Zara. From what I understand, swifties are like the maga cult…
Taylor swift’s cult is no different than the cult of maga. Imagine raging over someone who in their minds said something bad about a billionaire.
She is SO funny, I’ll always love her
People were being so dramatic about this, several swifties were using racist slurs in Zara’s comments.
IMO Zara seems like she’s a girl’s girl and at worst, was making a light jest. Target this negative energy towards actual misogynists, or at least, log off and take some deep breaths
I am a swiftie but these people need lives and to touch grass.
Taylor Swift fans prove the accuracy of the original allegation.
They doxxed her didn’t they
Can these swifties go outside and touch grass just once please
Another day ending in y , at this point being a swiftie should get you put on the terroist watchlist/hj
Swifties need to get over themselves and their idol already
Zara, a queen
Swifties are such a cancer. You could not ever convince me to use a second of my time defending a billionaire who doesn’t even know I exist. Especially over non-issues. In the words of the worst:
They could never make me hate this woman. Swifties are out of control and they are constantly sending death threats, doxxing, harassing, and saying racist comments to anyone who dares not worship Taylor. Taylor is partially to blame for this shit too, because she should have spoke out against swifties doing this a longtime ago, but instead turns a blind eye to it while they harass and attack people.
They were so mad abt this in the other pop culture sub 😭
I mean even if she meant it has a read would she have been wrong…. 🤔
Swifties ain’t ever beating the allegations. Softest fanbase imaginable. So much in common (and overlap) with the MAGA cult
Most toxic fan base in music
TS fans stay proving every negative comment about them right.
After this many people have had to put out statements like this, where the fuck is Taylor’s direct, concise statements to her fans??
Please clock the flair; I have absolutely no stake or dog in these fights, I’m an impartial old: this is now firmly on TS.
I’ve got no problem launching a campaign to get in front of her and tell her to her face that her fans doxxed me and that she either needs to tell them what’s up or cut me a check for the damages
Can taylor swift make a single fucking effort to rein in her bug fuck crazy asshole fans?
Crazy how they never reflect and wonder why they have the reputation they do. How they respond to shit like this is the exact reason people don’t like them. Zara didn’t say anything that was a lie lol
I would never apologize to the cult or taylor swift. They need to get over themselves.
Just came over from PCC and it truly is just swiftie central over there my god
I’m happy that Zara clarified what she meant but it’s also annoying that people badger her until she has to justify everything she says.
don’t forget BTS fans too
It’s truly heinous loser behaviour to go out of your way defending a billionaire over quite literally nothing when you could, I don’t know, defend a cause that actually warrants and needs it. 🙄
I’m on stan Twitter and i stan like 40 pop divas, and over the past few months there’s been a clear hate wave against her from Swifties. I’ve come across multiple viral tweets dragging zara….and, surprise, they’re coming from Swifties. Even one of their biggest influencers, “The Swiftologist,” downplayed Zara new record. They deserve this backlash
That fanbase is very toxic and seems to think it can tear anyone down. Zara is such a strong performer on stage that she probably makes them feel intimidated.
Is this the interview where she said shart instead of chart? My favorite lolol
Swifties are almost as bad as the barbz tbh
I will never get the swift hype over someone so mid.
i agree. i’m a kpop fan. chart obsession is the dumbest thing ever. if you’re so interested in playing with numbers, redirect that energy to the stock market, you’re no better than fuckass finance bros, at least you can match with your equals there and maybe earn a few bucks instead of wasting your life savings on the same album 50 times.
I want Taylor swift and her fans to just go away. It’s MAGA levels of culty
If I said some shit about TS and was asked to clarify, I’d double down.
The typos ohhh they made my sista write this out at gunpoint 😭 im still with her
Ok but she didn’t lie?? And that’s not even offensive, wtf are they mad about? I fucking hate Swifties, truly insufferable dorks.
Don’t ever defend yourself to those crazy fucks
As someone who used to be deep in kpop fandom trenches, Zara was 100% right. Swifties are like kpop fans with how obsessed they are with charts and numbers. Chart manipulation is literally so common among these fandoms that some don’t even realize they’re manipulating the charts.
Oh my god I’m so done with swifties. Every time someone even just mentions Taylor Swift or her fans in a neutral or not glaringly obvious positive way, they have to post a whole sermon an hour later to clarify every single syllable they said about her because those fans are so unhinged and obsessive and ready to ruin your whole life.
