Taylor Swift's dedicated fanbase recently mobilized to express their disapproval of "Dancing With The Stars" contestant Harry Jowsey.
The rallying cry emerged when it was discovered that Harry, a 26-year-old YouTube personality, followed celebrity manager Scooter Braun on Instagram.
This seemingly innocuous act ignited controversy within Swifties due to the longstanding feud between Taylor Swift, 33, and Scooter Braun, 42.

The tweet included a call to action: "Please help us get him out by texting 'charity,' 'Jason,' or 'xochitl' to '21523' during the live show #dwts #DWTSxTaylorSwift."
This plea quickly gained traction, with the viral tweet reaching a Reddit forum, where Swifties further discussed their shared mission to eliminate Harry from the competition.
In the Reddit thread, Swifties expressed their commitment to supporting Taylor Swift's honor, with some declaring their allegiance to vote against Harry during the live 'DWTS' broadcast.
The sentiment was clear - Swifties, fueled by their dedication to Taylor, were determined to make their collective voice heard on the show.
While most of the responses resonated with the swift and relentless nature of Taylor Swift's fans, there were nuanced perspectives, according to The Sun.
Some of them acknowledged the unintentional nature of following problematic figures and urged understanding rather than outright condemnation.
One fan diplomatically stated, "I know I will get downvoted, but I've followed problematic celebrities, forgetting to unfollow them when a scandal comes out."
