Taylor Swift was accused of being a "poisonous snake" again, taking advantage of fans to bring down Billie Eilish

Recently, a source close to Billie Eilish confirmed that people in the American music industry clearly see the fact that Taylor Swift is weaponizing fans and the young singer born in 2001 seems to be the latest victim in the dethronement campaign.

"Whenever Taylor feels jealous of a peer's success, she will do all she can to ensure that her fans start vicious online campaigns to bring that person down, without ever asking them to stop. while all operating under the manipulation of the American lover (a way of calling Taylor)," the source said.

The above sharing comes after Taylor and Eilish both released new albums in the first months of 2024, causing a fierce battle for the top spot on the charts. In particular, Billie is said to be the focus of increasing attacks launched by Taylor fans online.

The Tortured Poets Department (TTPD), the singer's 11th studio album, has maintained the No. 1 spot on Billboard's album chart since its release on April 19.

Some critics argue that the singer born in 1989 retains that position by periodically releasing variations and extended versions, in order to maintain high sales and streaming figures.

Taylor's release of three of these special editions on the same day Eilish released her new album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, was seen by many as an attempt to trample on the competition. In fact, Taylor holds the No. 1 spot, while Eilish ranks No. 2 on Billboard's charts.

Taylor fans argued that the timing was a coincidence, Taylor just wanted to keep her album at No. 1 for as long as possible, with no intention of playing anyone badly. However, Eilish's supporters don't think so.

Eilish's manager, Danny Rukasin, also reshared the status line on X (Twitter) accusing Taylor Swift of doing everything to prevent other artists from shining. According to the post, apart from Eilish, Taylor has also done the same thing in the past to hinder artists like Katy Perry and SZA. Rukasin cleared the operation shortly afterwards but it ignited a flame of hostility between the two factions.

Sources close to Eilish said that the two-time Oscar winner does not want a public conflict and that she is currently the victim of unwarranted online attacks from Taylor Swift fans.

"Billie doesn't want anything to do with a 'feud'. She doesn't care about the market and she doesn't do anything to provoke it. At a time when Billie is doing so well, there's no reason for her to get involved in any kind of friction," the insider emphasized.

However, what Eilish did showed the opposite. Back in March, Eilish publicly criticized some artists for being extravagant, creating dozens of different vinyl records to get fans to spend money.

Although the Gen Z music phenomenon claims not to target any specific individual, netizens quickly associate Taylor with her 11 different vinyl albums sold on her own website. Many Swifties (Taylor fan community) have attacked the voice of What Was I Made For?.

Not stopping there, in May, Eilish had a number of more comments accused of touching her seniors. First, the young singer criticized the personal attack songs as disappointing (Taylor Swift is famous for many songs scolding her ex, enemies and old friends). Next, Eilish sarcastically mocked the performers in the 3-hour show who were mentally ill. Coincidentally, each show on the Eras Tour also took place in the same amount of time.
