Diplo opened up about his feud with Taylor Swift in a new interview for GQ magazine’s February issue. The feud began in November after the DJ mocked Taylor’s booty on social media and her pal #Lorde came to her defense and called him out for his “tiny penis.”
At the time, there were rumors that Diplo was motivated by his then-girlfriend #KatyPerry, who has her own beef with Taylor but now, he told GQ that the Twitter exchanges were all done “in jest,” and media blew it out of proportion. He explained:
“It’s really dumb. So many great albums came out that week, and all people talked about, on all the big press, was Me vs. Lorde, and #KimKardashian’s butt. No one covered any music. And it’s funny, because me and Lorde, we’re actually friends, and it was a funny, in-jest conversation. So many tabloids used it to make it story, when it was not. Literally, it was such a tongue-in-cheek joke on both sides. I think Taylor Swift is such an impactful character, that it was because she was involved that it became really big. The repercussions are really bad. Like, Taylor Swift fans are really crazy. They threatened to murder me and stuff. It’s really bizarre, and disgusting. They’re the worst people in the world.”
The DJ went on to say he’s a “pretty big fan” of Taylor but he doesn't appreciate how her fans behaved.
"They're like, 'I wish your kids had Down syndrome.' They're so evil. I dissed #LadyGaga before, and the gays were never even this mean. They're funny. These people are like mean-spirited, evil human beings, I'm not a politician. I shouldn't have to be under the microscope for people like that. She has like 40 million Twitter fans. Forty million! Yeah. It's crazy. I'm a fan, though. Her powers—she's big. She's strong, bro. Taylor Swift is very strategic with her friends and enemies. And I know lots of secrets. I can't divulge, but I know a lot of stuff about her. And she's definitely...there's definitely scary stuff going on. And I'm scared. I'm scared for my life," he said.
