Bethenny Frankel had a few stern words for people who are in a tizzy over Taylor Swift amid the release of the singer’s latest album, The Life of a Showgirl.
“The polarization and divisiveness of Taylor Swift is like Democrat versus Republican,” the Real Housewives of New York alum, 54, complained in a TikTok video posted on October 7. “Like people fight about it. People like, take a stance on it.”
“What the f**k happened to everybody?” she continued in the clip, in which she wrote “Taylor Swift is NOT your whole identity” alongside of it. “Why is like, liking or not liking someone people’s entire identity and personality?”
Frankel added fuel to the fire by telling fans to “get a f**king hobby.”
While some fans agreed with the former TV personality, a few Swifties came with clapbacks, including one who wrote: “Well love her or hate her SHE’S THE MUSIC INDUSTRY.”
This isn’t the first time Frankel has thrown shade at celebrities — and their loyal fanbases.
In 2022, she called out Kim Kardashian for her “overpriced”, soon-to-be-shuttered skincare line, SKKN by Kim, and she’s also shaded Jennifer Lopez and Blake Lively for oversaturating fans with their side hustles, like J.Lo’s JLo Beauty and Lively’s Betty Buzz.
“Celebrities have now reached a fever pitch of trying to triple- and quadruple-dip in monetizing businesses other than their core business,” Frankel, said in an August 2024 Instagram video. “It’s become a common practice to try to really bum-rush and smash and grab as much as you possibly can at the same time.”
