Taylor Swift‘s producer, Jack Antonoff, is under the spotlight for all the wrong reasons! Recently, the music maker performed with his band, Bleachers, on the TODAY show. But guess what? What really stole the show was the moment when he seemingly shaded Billie Eilish.
Here’s the scoop: after his band’s performance, he was briefly interviewed by the hosts. During their chat, he said that he’s usually compelled by “serious things,” and expressed that you do not hear good songs about “one’s lunch order.”
“It’s hard to write unless you’re really compelled. And sometimes what compels you is way more serious things. I never feel like… You don’t hear a lot of great songs about like, one’s lunch order.”
This remark was immediately perceived as shade at Billie Eilish, since the 22-year-old singer dropped her album “HIT ME HARD AND SOFT” and a single titled “LUNCH” on May 17th. What’s more, he produced Taylor Swift’s latest album “The Tortured Poets Department,” which had a fierce chart battle with Billie Eilish’s record back in May.
While fans think that these hints are just enough to prove that Jack Antonoff made shady remarks, others think it was just a spontaneous choice of words that has nothing to do with the singers. What’s your take on this Internet drama?
