Taylor Swift found herself on the end of some strange criticism this week, given that it came from a fellow singer.
Country music star Zach Bryan took to X/Twitter to post something strange and out of the blue, given that there was no football to provide context at the time.
“Eagles > chiefs Kanye > Taylor who’s with me?” he tweeted.
tyler childers > zach bryan

It didn’t take him long to learn that most people weren’t with him…
Zach Bryan Tried Explaining Why He Made The Comparison Between Kanye West And Taylor Swift
Bryan has since apologized for the post, claiming he was intoxicated when he shared it and wasn’t trying to annoy Swift and her fans as he loves her.
“For the record guys I wasn’t coming for Taylor the other night,” he wrote. “I was drunkenly comparing two records and it came out wrong. I know there’s a lot of stuff that clouds around Ye and I was speaking purely musically. I love Taylor’s music and pray you guys know I’m human and tweet stupid things often.
“Hope I can explain this to her one day. Twitter gets me in trouble too much and I’d say it’s best I stay off it. I’m sorry to any Taylor fans I pissed off or let down. Love you guys and I’m trying my best!”

Bryan also claimed to have projected some frustration as he’s been going through a rough time.
He said he’s learned not to drink and tweet anymore. The country star has also deactivated his account following the backlash.
Meanwhile, Taylor Swift has yet to offer a response, and it’s unlikely she will.
As long as the Chiefs keep on winning and her career keeps soaring, she’s probably not going to entertain any vitriol, online or otherwise.
