Taylor Swift has been flying under the radar for the last couple of years, only coming out of hiding recently to release her Reputation album and start her biggest tour yet.
Following a rehearsal for her tour, Taylor was interviewed by BBC reporter Greg James and, in a weird turn of events, he told Taylor: “I think you need to have a shower now.”
Taylor, in true good-sport fashion, laughed it off and said she wasn’t offended.
“I agree— and I’m not offended that you said that. There’s a lot going on here and none of it is good here,” she joked.

Her fans, however, were not as nice as Taylor was about the ordeal.

Really @GragJames telling @taylorswift13 she needs to take a shower? However British you are, remember that you're being watched globally. Where are your manners?

Taylor should take a shower? A normal human being obviously sweats! Though this was a joke, many people find it offensive including me! The first interview after like 2 years with @taylorswift13 and look at his guts pic.twitter.com/WiHHxJqcig

Regardless, we think she looked as gorgeous as ever— and if nothing else, it shows how much true hard work she’s putting into her Reputation Tour.
