Diplo: 'Taylor Swift's fans are the worst people in the world'

Dance music producer Diplo has addressed his ongoing feud with Taylor Swift in a new interview for GQ magazine.

He was quoted by the publication yesterday as saying, "I know lots of secrets. I can't divulge, but I know a lot of stuff about her. And I'm scared. I'm scared for my life", but this information was quickly removed from the magazine's website due to the fact that they were 'taken out of context'.

Now, the full interview has been shared and he explains that Swift's fans sent him death threats over social media: "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.”

Diplo went onto add that even Lady Gaga's followers aren't that mean: “I dissed Lady Gaga before, and the gays were never even this mean. They’re funny. These people are like mean-spirited, evil human beings. I’m not a politician. I shouldn’t have to be under the microscope for people like that.”
