Shortly after Taylor shared her letter, fans and celebrities alike began to show their support with the hashtag "I Stand With Taylor." Halsey defended Taylor in a handful of tweets and shared a video of her singing Taylor's country hit "Mean," while Taylor's longtime pal Selena Gomez voiced her thoughts in an Instagram Story.
"My heart is so heavy right now," Selena wrote. "It makes me sick and extremely angry. (I don't mind if there may be retaliation) this is my opinion. It's greed, manipulation and power. There is no heart or thought of anyone else. No respect for the words my friend has written since she was a 14 year old in her bedroom. You've robbed and crushed one of our best song writers of our time an opportunity to celebrate all of her music with fans and the world."
