Queer Eye<\/em> star Antoni Porowski<\/strong> came to Taylor Swift<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s defense after a harsh review of her 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The New York Times<\/em> shared its opinion piece of TTPD<\/em> via Instagram<\/a> on the album\u2019s release date, Friday, April 19, writing that Swift \u201ccould use an editor.\u201d<\/p>\n

The caption, which included a small snippet of the review, called the album \u201cself-indulgent\u201d and thought it generated \u201cdiminishing returns\u201d for listeners.<\/p>\n

Porowski jumped into the comments, writing, \u201cOh no what u doing.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tDon Arnold\/TAS24\/Getty Images Taylor Swift has fans (and Us Weekly staffers) busy with the release of 31 songs across two versions of her 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department. Swift, 34, dropped TTPD on Friday, April 19, dropping the first 16 songs at midnight EST. Two hours later, she announced and released The Tortured [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The Netflix star is a fan of the album, sharing via his own Instagram Stories that his favorite tracks are \u201cDown Bad,\u201d \u201cFlorida!!!,\u201d \u201cloml\u201d and \u201cI Can Do It With a Broken Heart.\u201d However, Porowski\u2019s lighthearted comment seems to point to the reaction the reviewer will receive from Swifties, who are known to strongly defend the pop star on social media.<\/p>\n

Porowski, 40, is friends with Swift, 34, thanks to his close relationship with their mutual pal Gigi Hadid<\/strong>, with whom he is also neighbors in New York City. The TV personality and Swift actually first crossed paths years earlier when he auditioned for Swift\u2019s \u201cBlank Space\u201d music video in 2014.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere was a green screen, and I had to pretend I was being attacked by a lion \u2026 which was the most awkward thing,\u201d Porowski recalled during a 2020 Instagram Live with E! News<\/em>. The gig ultimately went to model Sean Richard O\u2019Pry<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Porowski did eventually appear in a music video along with the rest of the Queer Eye<\/em> cast for 2019\u2019s \u201cYou Need to Calm Down.\u201d<\/p>\n

The pair have since been spotted several times hanging out socially, including attending Madonna<\/strong>\u2019s 2019 Madame X Tour<\/em> in Brooklyn and Porowski accompanying Swift and a few of their close friends to cheer on her boyfriend, Travis Kelce<\/strong>, during a Kansas City Chiefs game in October 2023.<\/p>\n
