He says f**king with her was one of his biggest career mistakes
Diplo has compared Taylor Swift’s fans to an “army that’s worse than North Korea”.
In an interview with British GQ Style, Diplo admitted that getting into a feud with Taylor Swift was one of the biggest mistakes of his career.
“All I know is, don’t ever get into a feud with Taylor Swift,” he said. “She has, like, 50 million people that will die for her. You can’t step into that arena. That was something I was never prepared for. … One of the biggest mistakes of my career was definitely f**king with her.”
The feud began in November when Diplo Tweeted: “Someone should make a kickstarter to get taylor swift a booty”.

Swift’s BFF Lorde jumped in to defend her friend, Tweeting to Diplo: “should we do something about your tiny penis while we're at it hm”.

When asked why he did not continue to pick a fight with Lorde following her comments, Diplo said: "I can go head-to-head with anybody. I don't care who you are. I didn't go after Lorde because she's my friend and she's a young girl and the one person I kept it cool with."
The producer had previously shared that he’s now a bit more careful to not be “as crazy” on the Internet, as the repercussions are “really bad”. “Taylor Swift fans are really crazy,” he stated. “They threatened to murder me and stuff. It’s really bizarre, and disgusting. They’re the worst people in the world. And I’m a pretty big fan.”
Diplo and Swift seem to have since mended their friendship, though, as the two were seen together at the Grammys.
