Without wanting to sound like a 1950s schoolteacher, Diplo got a real taste of his own medicine after launching the dubious “Get Taylor Swift a booty” campaign.
The rapper took to Twitter yesterday to share his profound insight that someone should launch a Kickstarter to improve Tay Tay’s butt.
TIME OUT - What has Kim Kardashian done? Have we all gone completely mad about bums? To the extent that it is no longer possible to appreciate any other feature on a human body, such a Taylor’s sylphlike limbs, her honey skin, and the way her colouring chimes so well with pillarbox red lipstick?
Anyhow, of course some bright spark decided to go through with Diplo's idea, and has indeed created a petition. Diplo has charitably supported the campaign, sharing the link with his 1.3million followers.
But Lorde, a friend of Swifty and welcome voice of reason, posted a risible comeback to stick up for the star.
HA.
The rapper has not proved himself a natural fundraiser: so far the international campaign's raised a pitiful $45 dollars. (Question - what do the donors actually think the money is going to be used for??? Because the odds of Taylor accepting it with open arms and dutifully doling it out on a buttock augmentation procedure aren't strong.)
Maybe stick to the day job, eh Diplo?
