Zach Bryan issued an apology after he «drunkenly» declared on social media that he likes Kanye West better than Taylor Swift.
Why you gotta be so mean?
Zach Bryan insulted Taylor Swift and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, on X (formerly Twitter) while he was allegedly drunk on Tuesday.
First, the 28-year-old country singer tweeted, “eagles > chiefs,” in reference to Kelce’s NFL team.
Bryan then took a side in Swift and Kanye West’s years-long rivalry by tweeting, “Kanye > Taylor.”
“Who’s with me?” he concluded his post.
Unsurprisingly, Bryan faced immediate backlash from Swift’s massive fan base.
On Wednesday, he deleted his X account and issued an apology on his Instagram Stories.
“For the record guys I wasn’t coming for Taylor the other night,” Bryan wrote alongside a screenshot of Taylor and Post Malone’s song “Fortnight.”
“I was drunkenly comparing two records and it came out wrong,” he went on. “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.
