Pop superstar Taylor Swift doesn't give too many interviews...perhaps because when she does, the reporter implies she smells bad seconds after she's left the concert stage. Moment after a six-song set in Wales, the BBC's Greg James told Swift it was time she went and got a shower. Fortunately, Taylor took the whole incident in stride, though her fans were somewhat offended for her.
After several other questions, James said to Swift:
I think you need to have a shower now.
To which she responded:
I agree. And I'm not offended that you said that. There's a lot going on and none of it's good here.
The backlash from Swift-heads was immediate, prompting James to explain himself in a since-deleted tweet:
She really is right. TS has a great sense of humour and we have known each other for ages and had a good catch up after the interview. It's all cool. It was hot up there. I almost said we should both go for a shower but after this reaction I'm glad I didn't! X
Twitter was not not NOT amused by James' joke.
Greg James had better learn a lesson before doing another interview with Taylor...that is, if he ever gets another one.
