Country Music Star Deletes X Account After Vanilla Taylor Swift Tweet

Zach Bryan nuked (for now) his X account following a simple tweet about Taylor Swift.

The country music star is active on social media, and has never been afraid to fire off random tweets about whatever is on his mind.

Well, he apparently stepped in it real badly Wednesday when he fired off a simple tweet about preferring Kanye West to Taylor Swift.

The now-deleted post can be seen in the tweet below.

Zach Bryan deletes/deactivates X account.

Well, Bryan decided to just take his X account offline after sending the tweet, which was absolutely unnecessary.

The reason why? I’m guessing because the outrage was pretty over the top. Check out some of the responses to the situation below, and let me know what you think at David.Hookstead@outkick.com:

If you’re going to have shitty opinions either apologize or be willing to handle the backlash https://t.co/pwqyFg4qMb

i enjoy some of Zach Bryan’s music from his past albums and i can agree he’s talented, but when’re you all going to realize that besides talent, that man is a narcissistic cry baby with no respect for woman

Zach Bryan begging for Taylor’s attention and clout just years ago. Now he got a little CLOUT he suddenly showed his true colors. 😂 I remember some Swifties even streamed his music cause they thought he liked Taylor. Y’all need to stop doing charities from now on. pic.twitter.com/xKUyw1eUEl

This is one of those moments where we’re reminded that the internet is an incredibly stupid place at times. Zach Bryan tweeted that he prefers Kanye to T-Swift.

How is that a reason for an all out war to start online and for him to deactivate his account? Kanye might have some unhinged personal beliefs, but you can’t deny his success in the music world.

The man is incredibly popular and well-decorated in the music industry. Yet, if you publicly prefer him to Swift, then the Swifties will show up in numbers to go wild.

It definitely stems, in part, from the fact Swift and Kanye have long had beef with each other. That’s nothing new, but the idea that random people on the internet should dictate what people listen to is just nuts. Nobody cares! Go outside and touch grass.
