Taylor Swift fans are furious the singer used the word ‘fat’ in new music video

In the music video for her new hit single, the 32-year-old confronts her own insecurities with weight and body image.

One person wrote on Twitter: “Taylor Swift’s music video, where she looks down at the scale where it says ‘fat,’ is a s***ty way to describe her body image struggles. Fat people don’t need to have it reiterated yet again that it’s everyone’s worst nightmare to look like us.”

While another said: “I can’t believe Taylor Swift confidently and without hesitation put a whole a** music video out there where she calls herself fat and aligns it with being an anti hero.”

However, other fans hit back at the criticism and said Taylor is allowed to talk about her own struggles with body image.

One said: “You do realize that Taylor Swift is talking about a eating disorder correct? I hate how fat people minimize skinny peoples body dysmorphia because that’s the weight they wouldn’t mind being.”

Another shared: "People have been saying that they think this moment in Taylor Swift’s music video is fatphobic but…to me it very clearly seems like a critique of fatphobia."

Previously, the ‘Bad Blood’ singer has opened up about her weight insecurities and the pressure of staying thin under intense media scrutiny.

She told the outlet: “I looked at that as a pat on the head. You register that enough times, and you just start to accommodate everything towards praise and punishment, including your own body.”

The singer also condemned the ongoing commentary on women’s bodies.

Swift said: “It’s incessant, and I can say this as a woman: It’s amazing to me how people are constantly like ‘You look skinny’ or ‘You’ve gained weight.’ People you barely know say this to you. And it feels awful, and you can’t win either way.”
