AZINE REDACTS REVIEWER’S NAME … Swifties Sent Violent Threats!!!

Taylor Swift’s fans jump to defend their girl T-Swizzle … and, one magazine’s so concerned they removed a reviewer’s byline — ’cause they worried the person might get threats.

Paste, an entertainment/culture outlet, published its review of “The Tortured Poets Department” Friday … but didn’t include a specific author’s name in the byline.

The magazine included an editor’s note on its account … saying when it reviewed “Lover” back in 2019 the writer who penned the piece received threats of violence — and, the mag didn’t want to put an employee in danger.

Probably a good call … ’cause the review absolutely trashes Swift’s 11th studio album — saying it infantilizes its audience and comparing it to controversial poet Rupi Kaur’s work.

The opening line sets the tone for the entire piece … with the writer starting off by saying, “Sylvia Plath did not stick her head in an oven for this!” — so, yeah the review’s pretty critical.

But, Paste’s review ain’t stopping people from listening to the album … ’cause ‘TTPD’ reportedly made history when it became the first album to garner more than 300 million Spotify streams in just one day.

BTW … people online have mixed reactions to Paste’s decision — with some saying her fans should be allowed to debate with a person who’s criticizing their fav artist while others applauded Paste for protecting their writer.

Paste better be careful though … or they might end up getting name-dropped in Taylor’s 12th album!
