Taylor Swift ‘unbothered’ by Billie Eilish feud as insiders reveal why she REALLY thinks the Lunch singer dislikes her so much

Taylor Swift is completely unfazed by Billie Eilish’s apparent repeated attempts to tear her down, according to insiders, who claim she is too busy selling out stadiums worldwide to engage with her ‘jealousy.’  The two pop superstars appear to have been locked in a ‘viscous campaign’ in recent weeks as they continue to battle for the top spot on the Billboard album chart following their respective new album releases.

Despite publicly praising one another in the past, ‘Swifties’ feel Billie, 22, has been subtly bashing Taylor in a series of interviews.  She branded three-hour concerts ‘psychotic’ – Taylor’s shows are three and a half hours – and slammed the ‘wasteful’ practice of releasing numerous vinyl versions of albums – Taylor has dropped multiple editions of The Tortured Poets Department.

But an insider close to the Bad Blood singer exclusively told DailyMail.com that she isn’t giving her ‘jealous’ contemporary any attention and wishes she would instead focus on empowering fellow female artists.  ‘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.

‘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.

The move even prompted Billie’s manager Danny Rukasin to re-share – and then later delete – a tweet accusing Taylor of ‘breaking her neck doing everything to prevent other artists from shining.’  The tweet implied Taylor had similarly timed releases in the past to hinder artists such as Katy Perry and SZA.  In March, Billie sparked speculation she was shading Taylor after she criticized her music industry peers over their ‘wasteful’ practice of releasing numerous vinyl versions of albums to increase sales.

During an interview with Billboard about her sustainability efforts, she remarked ‘some of the biggest artists in the world making f****** 40 different vinyl packages that have a different unique thing just to get you to keep buying more.’  Taylor currently has 11 different vinyl albums for sale on her site.  While Billie never named Taylor or any particular artist, fans interpreted her comments as a jab at the Love Story songstress as she has released 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.  ‘And then it’s some of the biggest artists in the world making f****** 40 different vinyl packages that have a different unique thing just to get you to keep buying more.’
