Country singer Kacey Musgraves stirred up controversy when she appeared to support Kid Rock’s criticism of Taylor Swift.

After the story of Kid Rock tweeting criticism towards Taylor Swift, accusing her of trying to buy a role in the upcoming Cats film, sparked outrage, Kacey Musgraves unexpectedly liked the tweet. This action led to backlash, with fans expressing anger over Musgraves seemingly supporting Kid Rock and acknowledging Swift’s alleged attempt to buy a role.

Later, Kacey Musgraves unliked Kid Rock’s tweet and immediately clarified the situation. She shared that her account had been hacked, and she had no knowledge of liking the tweet. Not stopping there, Musgraves further addressed the issue in another tweet, stating, “Last week I got dragged into a whole mess because I am who I am & anyone who knows me knows I’m very straightforward about gender equality & respect. I reached out to Taylor. She knows I didn’t do this & we are laughing at how wild it is. The pic was photoshopped (I didn’t even follow him) & I will not ever support the messaging of hate towards women.” Shortly after, Taylor Swift herself liked Musgraves’ tweet to confirm her words were true.

Following Kacey Musgraves’ tweet clarifying the situation, fans stopped criticizing her. Currently, Kid Rock continues to face strong opposition for his offensive remarks.
