As Taylor Swift continues her biggest tour yet with Eras, Courtney Love has dubbed her as 'not important' or 'interesting'.
Last year, Swift was propelled into billionaire status - with only a lottery winner who recently became richer than her overnight.
Not to mention her new relationship with beau, Travis Kelce, and her appearances at the Super Bowl drinking a few breskis catching the world's attention, Swift hardly leaves the headlines these days.

But not everyone is a fan, it seems.
In an interview with The Evening Standard on Friday (April 12) to promote her upcoming BBC Sounds series, named Courtney Love's Women, she revealed what she thought of the 'Shake It Off' singer.
Speaking her thoughts on various female artists in the music industry, she told the outlet: "Taylor is not important. She might be a safe space for girls, and she's probably the Madonna of now, but she's not interesting as an artist."

It's certainly a change of direction for the 'Dolls Part' vocalist, who has previously praised Swift.
The artist paid homage to Swift in a December 2021 post as she wished the singer a belated 'happy birthday'.
To mark that, Love also reposted a snap the pair took at the Grammys five years earlier, labelling the 'Red' singer as an 'aspirational huge role model for many young women' and 'occasional hair twin/neighbor'.

Swift wasn't the only singer to called out by Love in the interview, however, as she also had some words to say about Lana Del Rey.
"I haven't liked Lana since she covered a John Denver song, and I think she should really take seven years off," she said.
"Up until Take Me Home Country Roads, I thought she was great. When I was recording my new album, I had to stop listening to her as she was influencing me too much."
UNILAD has reached out to Taylor Swift and Lana Del Rey's representatives for comment.

Like her or loathe her, there's no denying the impact Swift has made, with her fans even causing an earthquake-like activity during Eras tour date.
According to Pop Crave on X, it reported: "Fans at Taylor Swift’s ‘Eras Tour’ show at the SoFi Stadium on August 5th caused earthquake-like activity, a Caltech & UCLA study finds. The strongest tremor was equivalent to a magnitude-2 earthquake."
According to the official reports, researchers found that each Swift song had a distinctive tremor signal.

While 43 of 45 songs played generated activity, tracks certainly varied in magnitude.
The classic that is 'Shake It Off' came in at at the largest local magnitude of 0.851, with Gabrielle Tepp of Caltech explaining: "Keep in mind this energy was released over a few minutes compared to a second for an earthquake of that size.
"Based on the maximum strength of shaking, the strongest tremor was equivalent to a magnitude -2 earthquake."
And who knows, perhaps her songs will be used to measure earthquakes?
