During a December 2025 interview with i-D Magazine, the I Love LA actor admitted to his co-star, Jordan Firstman, that he wasn\u2019t a <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.cosmopolitan.com\/taylor-swift\" target=\"_blank\" data-vars-ga-outbound-link=\"http:\/\/www.cosmopolitan.com\/taylor-swift\" data-vars-ga-ux-element=\"Hyperlink\" data-vars-ga-call-to-action=\"Taylor Swift\" data-node-id=\"0.5\" class=\"body-link css-ohbdae emevuu60\">Taylor Swift<\/a> fan. At the time, he faced some backlash from Swifties all over the internet, as he was spotted attending the New Orleans stop of her Eras Tour in October 2024 and even traded friendship bracelets with fans. Now, Josh has clarified his initial comments in a new interview with <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gq-magazine.co.uk\/article\/josh-hutcherson-is-liking-what-he-sees-in-the-mirror\" target=\"_blank\" data-vars-ga-outbound-link=\"https:\/\/www.gq-magazine.co.uk\/article\/josh-hutcherson-is-liking-what-he-sees-in-the-mirror\" data-vars-ga-ux-element=\"Hyperlink\" data-vars-ga-call-to-action=\"British GQ\" data-node-id=\"0.7\" class=\"body-link css-ohbdae emevuu60\">British GQ<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"1\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">\u201cI got some heat because I did a photo shoot with Jordan, and Jordan asked me something about being a [Taylor Swift fan], and I was like, \u2018Oh no, I\u2019m definitely not a Swiftie,\u2019\u201d he explained. \u201cAll of a sudden it garnered this, \u2018Fuck him! He\u2019s a monster! Destroy him! He\u2019s short! He hates her because he\u2019s short!\u2019 It\u2019s just like, whoa! I think she\u2019s great. Her music is not my kind of music.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"2\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">He added that such negativity is what drove him off the internet in the first place. \u201cThat is why I don\u2019t want to be online,\u201d he shared. \u201cI don\u2019t need that energy. It\u2019s counterintuitive to my job, because if people know you more, you can\u2019t disappear into characters. They see you as, \u2018Oh, that\u2019s Josh.\u2019 You know what I mean? So, if you\u2019re a fucking meme, people know you for the meme.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"5\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">\u201cAre you a Swiftie?\u201d Jordan asked during the original interview, to which Josh replied, \u201cI\u2019m not a Swiftie, very much not. No shade, all respect, but definitely not.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"6\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">In fact, his mom happens to be the Swiftie of his family, since they attended the Eras Tour together. While scrolling through photos from their camera rolls, Josh showed a photo of himself and his mom at the show, which he explained she \u201cmade him\u201d go to at the time.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"8\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Not everyone subscribes to Swiftian prophecy, and that\u2019s okay. So, in the words of Miss Swift herself: You need to calm down, because it doesn\u2019t seem like there\u2019s any bad blood here.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"css-pc3nh9 e94w1mj11\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" data-theme-key=\"title-design-element-before\" class=\"css-0 e68yk9k0\"\/><span class=\"css-0 e94w1mj10\">I \u2764\ufe0f \u2018I Love LA\u2019<\/span><span aria-hidden=\"true\" data-theme-key=\"title-design-element-after\" class=\"css-0 e68yk9k1\"\/><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.cosmopolitan.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Josh Hutcherson claimed he wasn\u2019t a Taylor Swift fan in a Dec. 2025 interview.
