Melania Trump Called 'Classy,' Taylor Swift 'Trashy' In Viral Post; Netizens React
Melania Trump and Taylor Swift were recently pitted against each other on social media, but many disagreed with those who favored the former first lady.
Nick Adams, an Australian-American commentator and best-selling author, took to X, formerly Twitter, and shared a side-by-side photo comparison of Melania and Taylor. He called the ex-FLOTUS "classy" and dubbed the "Anti-Hero" singer "trashy."
"Raise your daughters to be graceful women of class like Melania Trump, not promiscuous jezebels like Taylor Swift!" he wrote in the caption.
The post quickly received mixed responses, with many arguing about the comparison. It also attracted tons of criticism against Melania, with many sharing her nude magazine cover in the comments section. Meanwhile, many voiced their support for Swift, who recently made it into Forbes' list of world billionaires.
"Hey, @NickAdamsinUSA Remind me, when did Taylor Swift ever pose nude and married (sic) a man bcos she was a gold digger?" one commented.
Another added, "So, mail-order bride or self-made women what a choice."
"Jezebel an interesting choice of word to call a talented woman who through ambition and determination (and a very talented production team and crew) has reached the very APEX of what's possible in the pop music industry. And then there's the mail-order arm candy," another wrote.
"When a #MagaMoron claims to be an alpha male and yet is threatened and jealous of a self-made billionaire successful woman who has more money than God," a fourth person opined.
Meanwhile, some also defended Melania. For them, there were similarities between the two women. On the other hand, one reminded the others to stop the comparison because neither Melania nor Swift wanted it.
"So let me get this straight. I see people trying to trash Melania about nude photos. Yet half the nation waits for many well (known) actresses to do nude scenes because they are sexy. There is nothing NOT sexy or classy about Melania Trump," the netizen wrote.
"Taylor runs around half-dressed to do the tease act she has done for over a decade -- BECAUSE she wants to have the sex appeal to keep her fans looking (which is not easy at all). So what's the difference? Nothing except politics."
"I really hate post like this. Neither woman asked for this. @taylorswift13 is a super talented artist with a great heart," a different user added.
This wouldn't be the first time Melania and Swift got compared to each other. In February, another account shared a photo of Melania wearing a floral outfit and seemingly compared the supermodel to the singer.
"Do you agree Melania Trump is more beautiful than Taylor Swift," the caption read.
The post also received different reactions. Many supported Swift, and several agreed with the post that Melania was gorgeous.
"#TaylorSwift = pretty. #FlotusMelania = Very Very pretty!" one commented.
Another expressed agreement by writing, "MELANIA SMOKING HOT," along with a photo of her with her husband, Donald Trump.
