John Lennon's son reveals the Taylor Swift lyric that made him feel 'uncomfortable'

Although John Lennon's son thinks Donald Trump should Shake It Off, he does admit he finds one of Taylor Swift's lyrics 'uncomfortable.'

Sean Ono Lennon, the only son of the late Beatles singer John Lennon and wife Yoko Ono, shared his thoughts about the former president in a post he shared to X, previously known as Twitter, on September 15.

Lennon took to the platform after the Republican presidential nominee posted: 'I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT' to Truth Social following the popstar's official endorsement of  Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, declaring: 'Hating on Taylor Swift is not a good look.'

Lennon, 48, said although he has never been a fan of Swift's music, he acknowledges she is a 'uniquely successful American.'

'A young woman who has done things in a way that no one has done before her. She is the kind of American that should be respected and in fact treasured,' he wrote in the lengthy post.

'We need more not less Taylor Swifts in our world. People who thrive continually and consistently are exactly the kind of person both parties should embrace,' he urged.

He then declared it is 'not a good look' for some 'grumpy old dude' to get angry at her.

'A more "presidential" or gracious criticism might have been something like "She is a brilliant young woman. I have a lot of respect for what she has accomplished. I don't believe she knows the reality of the party she is endorsing. I hope her fans are able to make up their own minds and understand the big difference between a talent in music and an understanding of politics or economics,"' he suggested.

'Old man yells at moon is not a good look,' he quipped, before saying he wasn't endorsing either party in the November election. 

The next day, the late son of John Lennon returned to the platform to share had heard Swift's 2014 hit Bad Blood - admitting he didn't love it.

'I can't believe I forgot this one but I actually remember a Taylor song called Bad Blood (or something). I remember she rhymed "mad love" with "bad blood" and that kind of made me uncomfortable,' he wrote in reference to the track.

'This is only to say that it was not true I don't know any songs,' he clarified. 'I know that one. I have nothing against her. I have a lot of respect for what she has accomplished. I certainly could never do what she does.'

Swift, 34, endorsed Harris and her vice-presidential candidate, Tim Walz, following the presidential debate on September 10. 

'I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election,' she wrote on an Instagram post.

Swift signed her backing of Harris with 'Childless Cat Lady,' in reference to Trump's running mate Sen. J.D. Vance, who said in a 2021 interview with Tucker Carlson that the U.S. is being run by Democrats, corporate oligarchs and 'a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they've made and so they want to make the rest of the country miserable, too.'

The singer has a massive fanbase of Swifties and more than 283 million followers on Instagram. 

Her post endorsing Harris was liked more than nine million times in less than a day and could help drive support for Democrats.

Previous posts from the star urging people to register to vote have been directly linked to an uptick in registrations as some of her biggest supporters closely monitor her every word.

Trump responded to the endorsement saying he is 'not a Taylor Swift fan.'

'I was not a Taylor Swift fan. It was just a question of time. She couldn't... you couldn't possibly endorse Biden. You look at Biden. You couldn't possibly endorse him,' he said on Fox & Friends the day after the presidential debate last week.

He called Swift a 'very liberal' person and tried to brush off her backing Harris.
