The Twitter CEO shared a meme mocking the singer's appearance—and Swifties were not happy about it.

Elon Musk and Taylor Swift have at least one thing in common—devoted fans.

However, Musk was recently outclassed—on his own platform even—when he made the mistake of making a disparaging tweet about Swift.


He reposted a side-by-side image referring to Swift as "Napolean Dynamite in drag," agreeing with the sentiment.

He claimed to be a "TS" fan, but he soon found out he had no idea what it was like to be a real Swiftie.

Musk's tweet has since been deleted.

A damning fact when it's showing Musk was forced to delete a tweet on the social media platform that he owns.

The immediate responses to his tweet were very defensive.



Swifties reminded Musk and the world it doesn't help to insult someone beloved by people who have survived middle school social politics.

They went straight after him.



The moral of the story here?

Don't insult Taylor Swift unless you're willing to face the full wrath of the Swifties.


Swift's Eras Tour continues until early August.

George Santos Just Threatened To Flee NYC Due To Zohran Mamdani—And The Internet Pounced

Disgraced former New York Republican Representative George Santos was widely mocked after he announced he may leave New York City over fears it will become "dangerous" if Zohran Mamdani—a democratic socialist—is elected mayor.

Mamdani handily defeated former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary in June, sparking racist and Islamophobic backlash from right-wingers who've claimed his policies would "destroy" the city. The latest polls show Mamdani has a double-digit lead over Cuomo and Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa, who is facing calls to drop out.

Trump Dragged After Being Awarded A Second-Rate 'Peace' Prize—And The Irony Is Rich

President Donald Trump was widely mocked after the White House didn't see the irony in sharing footage of him being awarded The Richard Nixon Foundation’s Architect of Peace Award after Trump griped about not winning this year's Nobel Peace Prize.

Earlier this month, the Norwegian Nobel Committee awarded the prize to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado “for her tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela and for her struggle to achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy.”

Lucy Dacus reacts to Janelle Monáe

In June 1972, music icon David Bowie released his fifth studio album—and apparently, a time-traveling Janelle Monáe was there to witness it.

During their conversation, Monáe casually claimed to have “traveled back into the 1970s” to see Bowie perform The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars, calling it “incredible.”
