Taylor Swift fans – known as Swifties – have now taken aim at Elon Musk on his own social media platform after asking the megastar to post her music on X.
As the 33-year-old Bad Blood hitmaker is known for having some of the most passionate fans on the planet, many of her followers blasted the 52-year-old business magnate on the social media site formally known as Twitter.
It all began when Taylor took to the microblogging site to share some of the back covers for her upcoming 1989 rerelease.
Elon certainly had driving up engagement on his mind as he replied on the post: ‘I recommend posting some music or concert videos directly on the X platform.’
Swifties did not stand for the South African giving the artist unsolicited advice as they flooded the replies section to blast the businessman.

One user wrote: ‘With all due respect Mr. Elon sir I think miss Swift knows what she’s doing.’
As this is not the first time Elon has @’d her on the social media site to zero reciprocation from Taylor, he was mocked for being a reply guy.
A Swiftie posted: ‘This is the 3rd or 4th time Elon tried to shoot his shot and got ignored by Taylor.’
As Taylor’s current Eras Tour is on track to make a projected $2.2billion in North American revenue, one of her fans had quite the sarcastic reply.
They wrote: ‘Great point. If she posted some videos of her singing she could become a millionaire in no time from the ad revenue.’
This comes as Taylor revealed the names of all five bonus tracks off the upcoming re-recording of her fifth studio album 1989, which comes out on October 27.
On Wednesday, after fans managed to unscramble dozens and dozens of word clues on Google to unlock her Vault track titles, her official management team, Taylor Nation, teased that the ‘search was worth the pain.’
In a video, uploaded to Taylor Nation’s account, the 12-time Grammy winner could be heard sharing the names of her new songs: Is It Over Now?, Now That We Don’t Talk, Say Don’t Go and Suburban Legends.

‘Here are the back covers and vault track titles for 1989 (my version) I can’t wait for this one to be out, seriously. Thank you for playing along, sleuthing, puzzling and making these reveals so much chaotic fun (which is the best kind of fun, after all),’ she captioned the slideshow.
