Taylor Swift is currently experiencing immense success with her Eras Tour concerts and the anticipation surrounding her upcoming film, Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, is unprecedented. The advance booking for the film has surpassed all expectations. As she continues to dominate the music industry with her chart-topping hits and make a positive impact in the communities where she performs, we remember a time when her social media accounts were hacked.
In January 2015, Taylor Swift’s Twitter and Instagram accounts were compromised by hackers. Not only were her accounts hacked, but the hackers also threatened to release her n*de photos. Despite this unfortunate incident, let’s find out how she handled the situation.
According to TMZ’s report in January 2015, the hackers who gained control of Taylor Swift’s Instagram and Twitter accounts proceeded to threaten her with the release of her n*de pictures on social media. However, being the strong-willed person she is, Taylor took to the micro-blogging platform that is now known as X, thanks to Elon Musk, and delivered a response that demonstrated she cannot be easily messed with.
Addressing the news of her social media accounts being hacked, Taylor Swift posted on her Tumblr account, saying, “My Twitter got hacked but don’t worry, Twitter is deleting the hacker tweets and locking my account until they can figure out how this happened and get me new passwords.” She added, “Never a dull moment.” It was evident that she was determined to take control of the situation.
Once she regained control of her account, the ‘Shake It Off’ singer simply tweeted, “Cause the hackers gonna hack, hack, hack, hack, hack…” This brief tweet showed her resilience and refusal to let the hackers discourage her.
In another tweet that followed, Taylor addressed the hackers’ claims of having n*de photos of her. She wrote, “PS any hackers saying they have ‘n*des’? Psssh you’d love that, wouldn’t you! Have fun photoshopping cause you got NOTHING.” Her response showcased her fearlessness and dismissed the hackers’ empty threats.
