Taylor Swift Hit On Twitter Following Women’s March Support

Taylor Swift joined a band of other pop stars and a slew of A-list celebrities in supporting the Women’s Marches following President Donald Trump’s inauguration. On Sunday, the “Blank Space” singer took to Twitter to voice her support for those advocating women’s rights.

“So much love, pride and respect for those who marched. I’m proud to be a woman today, and every day #WomensMarch,” Swift wrote. The tweet was posted Sunday evening, hours after the Women’s Marches began.

So much love, pride, and respect for those who marched. I'm proud to be a woman today, and every day. #WomensMarch

But while voicing her support for women’s rights were in line with what her peers like Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato, Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry and Rihanna did, there were some corners on Twitter that didn’t exactly appreciate Swift’s support, as she was accused of being an opportunistic “selective feminist,” as a Pop Crush report pointed outs. “As a fan of yours, this is some bulls---. You do not get to pick and choose when feminism benefits you,” someone responded to Swift’s tweet.

“This is gross opportunism. Be better,” another wrote. People were likewise quick to point out, Swift did not take to the streets to attend the numerous anti-Trump, pro-human rights rallies that were held. As noted by Pop Crush, this wasn’t the first time Swift has publicly painted herself as a feminist, although she has also been accused of subscribing to white feminism—a term used to describe the type of feminism that strays from other subjects such as race LGBTQ oppression, among others.

Women’s Marches were held all over the U.S. with the main spotlight placed on protesters in Washington. In Los Angeles, though, the stars came out and attracted what is reported to be a crowd of more than 750,000, reports Billboard. Some of the prominent names that hit the streets of Los Angeles included Hollywood stars Natalie Portman, Barbra Streisand and Jane Fonda, and Swift peers Lovato and Cyrus.
