Taylor Swift News 2015: Diplo Calls '1989' Singer Scary, Says Her Fans Are ‘The Worst People in the World’ After Receiving Death Threats
In a recent interview with GQ, Los Angeles DJ Diplo called Taylor Swift's fans "the worst people in the world" following their slew of online attacks against him when he took aim at Swift on Twitter, MTV reports.
Back in November, Diplo made fun of Swift's butt on Twitter and created a Fundly campaign to get the "Shake it Off" singer a booty.
And while Diplo found the online diss to be amusing, Swift's fans felt otherwise.
"It sucks for me, because now I have to not be as crazy as I am on the internet," Diplo told GQ about the online backlash from Swift's fans. "Which totally sucks, because it's not going to be fun anymore. But the repercussions are really bad. Like, Taylor Swift fans are really crazy. They threatened to murder me and stuff. It's really bizarre, and disgusting. They're the worst people in the world. And I'm a pretty big fan. But they're like 'I wish your kids had Down syndrome.'"
Swift's friend and fellow singer Lorde also took aim at the DJ and mocked him for having a "tiny penis."

But despite his online attack at Swift, it appears that Diplo still likes Swift, admitting to GQ that he is still a fan of the singer.
In the same breath, Diplo admitted he's also scared of Taylor Swift after discovering what he describes as "definitely scary" personal secrets about the pop star.
"Her powers -- she's big. She's strong, bro. Taylor Swift is very strategic with her friends and enemies. And I know lots of secrets. I can't divulge, but I know a lot of stuff about her. And she's definitely, there's definitely scary stuff going on. And I'm scared. I'm scared for my life."
Taylor Swift has yet to respond publicly to Diplo's comments to GQ.
