The pop superstar, known for her meticulously crafted public persona and historically drama-free interactions with fans, seemed perplexed by the backlash. After all, Swift has previously dipped her toes into the political waters without seeing such an intense reaction. But this time, things went differently, and she’s not taking the blame. It all started with a simple, well-meaning post. Taylor Swift, in her now-familiar candid style, shared a heartfelt message to her 250 million Instagram followers endorsing Kamala Harris for president. The post, featuring a radiant Swift smiling with an American flag subtly placed in the background, read, “Kamala Harris is the leader we need! Strong, smart, and fighting for equality. I stand with Kamala, and I hope you all do, too!”
Within minutes, the post had racked up millions of likes, but just as quickly, something unexpected began to happen. Swifties-who are usually ready to back their queen in all things-started to express their displeasure. “Taylor, I love your music, but this is too much,” one comment read. “I didn’t follow you for politics,” said another. And then the unfollows started. Swift’s follower count, which had been steadily rising for years, began plummeting. First a few hundred, then a few thousand, then hundreds of thousands-until the number of lost followers reportedly reached over a million. Taylor Swift, stunned by the sudden backlash, was quick to address the situation. In a video posted to her Instagram story, she reassured her followers (well, those who remained) that she wasn’t taking the loss personally. “Guys, I think something weird is going on with Instagram,” Swift said, visibly confused. “There’s no way so many of you unfollowed me just because of one post. It has to be a glitch, right?”
