Bill Maher recently made a bold confession about pop icon Taylor Swift that divided fans. Well, Yungblud was having none of it via TV Insider.
On the October 6th episode of Maher’s Club Random podcast, the Real Time With Bill Maher host, sat down with the 28-year-old rockstar to chat about a number of topics, including Swift.
“I f***ing love Taylor Swift, it’s weird,” Yungblud stated at one point of the Life of a Showgirl superstar. “I love Taylor Swift.”
Although Maher admitted that Swift is a “brilliant businesswoman,” he bluntly admitted he wasn’t a fan of her music.
“I just saw her doing the Travis Kelce podcast,” Maher told Yungblud, of Swift announcing her 12th studio album on New Heights on August 14th . “She seemed genuine, funny, cool to hang out with, which I never thought she wasn’t. I just don’t get the music, and I never will.”
Yungblud sang a bit of Swift’s 2008 track “Love Story,” and shared that his younger sisters love the pop superstar’s album Red.
“Anytime that comes on, it takes me back to a time, and I was in my mom’s car with my sisters,” he explained. “And I actually f***ing love it.”
Yungblud added, “Can I tell you one thing? Lads in the pub are like, ‘Taylor Swift, I don’t f*** with it.’ I like f***ing Taylor Swift.
To that, Maher clarified, “I don’t dislike Taylor. I like Taylor Swift. I’m just saying … I’m making a bigger point because she’s so big. Not everybody has to like everything.”
