Taylor Swift ‘unbothered’ by Billie Eilish dispute, as insiders tell why she REALLY believes the Lunch singer dislikes her so much

Taylor Swift is unconcerned about Billie Eilish’s apparent persistent attempts to bring her down, according to insiders, who claim she is too busy selling out stadiums across the world to deal with her ‘jealousy.’

The two pop superstars appear to have been involved in a ‘viscous campaign’ in recent weeks as they continue to compete for the top spot on the Billboard album chart following the release of their respective new albums.

Despite publicly complimenting one another in the past, the ‘Swifties’ believe Billie, 22, has been discreetly criticising Taylor in a series of interviews.

She labelled three-hour concerts as ‘crazy’ – Taylor’s shows last three and a half hours – and condemned the ‘wasteful’ habit of issuing multiple vinyl versions of albums – Taylor has released multiple editions of The Tortured Poets Department.

However, an insider close to the Bad Blood singer told DailyMail.com exclusively that she isn’t paying attention to her ‘jealous’ contemporary and would rather focus on supporting other female musicians.

Billie, 22, has appeared to bash Taylor, 34, in a series of recent interviews, prompting fans to question why they might be feuding

 

‘Taylor is unbothered by Billie’s continued subtle jabs because she is too busy selling out stadiums and traveling the world,’ they said.

‘It is clear to her that Billie may have something against her and that it could stem from jealousy. Billie is new to the game compared to Taylor.

‘First, Billie appeared to target her for releasing her music in various forms and used the whole environmentalist argument.

‘Then she appeared to accuse Taylor of releasing Tortured Poets in three different versions to stay on top of the charts.

‘And now she is commenting about three-hour shows being “psychotic”.’

The insider added: ‘Billie should really focus on her own album and promoting that instead of trying to tear down another female artist.

‘She claims to be so about female empowerment but does not walk the walk.’

It comes days after a separate insider claimed Taylor is weaponizing her fans to hate on Billie.

‘Industry insiders aren’t blind to the fact that Taylor is weaponizing her fans and that Billie appears to be the latest victim in that campaign,’ a source told DailyMail.com last week.

‘Whenever Taylor feels jealous of a peer’s success, she does all she can to make sure her fans start vicious online campaigns to bring that person down without ever telling them to stop.

‘And all while operating under the guise of being America’s sweetheart.’

The duo have been battling for the top of the charts over the past month and a half, with Billie said to be the focus of increased attacks by Taylor’s fans online.

Taylor’s The Tortured Poets Department has stayed at number one on Billboard’s album rankings since its release on April 19.

However, some critics have suggested that she has only maintained the position by periodically releasing variants and extended editions.

In total, she has now put out more than 34 variants of TTPD.

Taylor dropped two of these ‘special’ editions the same day as Billie released her new album Hit Me Hard and Soft on May 17 – which was perceived by many as an attempt to quash the competition.

Billie didn’t hold back in a recent interview, criticising fellow musicians over their ‘wasteful’ practice of releasing many vinyl versions of records to enhance sales.

The move even prompted Billie’s manager, Danny Rukasin, to re-share, then delete, a tweet accusing Taylor of ‘breaking her neck doing everything to prevent other talents from shining.’

Taylor’s post claimed that she has previously scheduled her releases to impede musicians such as Katy Perry and SZA.

In March, Billie raised conjecture that she was shaming Taylor when she criticised her music industry peers for their ‘wasteful’ practice of issuing several vinyl versions of albums to boost sales.

While Billie never mentioned Taylor or any other artist, fans took her statements as a swipe at the Love Story diva, who has issued numerous vinyl versions of her albums.

‘For some reason, it’s very important to some artists to make all sorts of different vinyl and packaging,’ she told Billboard. ‘Which ups the sales and ups the numbers and gets them more money and gets them more.’

‘I can’t even express to you how wasteful it is,’ she continued. ‘I find it really frustrating as somebody who really goes out of my way to be sustainable and do the best that I can and try to involve everybody in my team in being sustainable.
