Josh Hutcherson Says Backlash Over Not Liking Taylor Swift’s Music Is ‘Why I Don’t Like the Internet’; Her Fans Called Him a ‘Monster’ and Said to ‘Destroy Him’
Josh Hutcherson Says Backlash Over Not Liking Taylor Swift’s Music Is ‘Why I Don’t Like the Internet’; Her Fans Called Him a ‘Monster’ and Said to ‘Destroy Him’
> During a video interview with i-D Magazine, Hutcherson and his castmate Jordan Firstman played a game of camera roll roulette and Hutcherson pulled up a photo of him and his mom in the VIP section at Swift’s Era Tour in New Orleans. “My mom made me,” Hutcherson said of the concert, prompting Firstman to ask if he’s a fan of the pop star. “I’m not a Swiftie,” Hutcherson replied. “Very much not. No shade, all respect, but definitely not.”
> This prompted a firestorm on social media, with some fans calling for Hutcherson to be canceled for accepting VIP tickets when he’s not really a fan. Responding to the backlash, Hutcherson told GQ: “I got some heat because I did a photo shoot with Jordan, and Jordan asked me something about being a [Taylor Swift fan], and I was like, ‘Oh no, I’m definitely not a Swiftie,’” he said. “All of a sudden it garnered this, ‘Fuck him! He’s a monster! Destroy him! He’s short! He hates her because he’s short!’ [He is five feet five.] “It’s just like, whoa! I think she’s great. Her music is not my kind of music. That is why I don’t want to be online.”

My dad hated Taylor Swift. I didn’t care either way. He passed away last year. I carry his torch for him. Shut up Taylor Swift, you stink!
