Criticising Taylor Swift’s music is tantamount to heresy in some circles, but The Pet Shop Boys’ Neil Tennant has ‘gone there’ in a new on-stage interview with The Guardian.
To be fair, the star was pretty measured with his words, telling host Alexis Petridis: "Taylor Swift sort of fascinates me as a phenomenon because she's so popular and I sort of quite like the whole thing. But then when I listen to the records - we [Tennant and fellow Pet Shop Boy, Chris Lowe] both have the same feeling actually - for a phenomenon as big… where are the famous songs? What’s Taylor Swift's Billie Jean?"
