It's April 21st, I'm Cory with the story, and this is entertainment and celebrity news today, your AI-powered entertainment report. Josh Hutcherson just shut down that swifty backlash from last year in a fresh GQ interview. Back in December 2025, the 33-year-old actor got real during an ID magazine video segment, admitting he's not a fan of Taylor. Swift's music. He only hit up her era's tour show in New Orleans because his mom insisted, VIP, tickets and all. It all kicked off in a casual camera role game with his I Love LA co-star, Jordan Firstman. They scrolled his phone, landed on that concert pick, and Hutcherson dropped the truth. No shade, full respect, but straight up not his style. Swifties flooded the internet, calling him out for taking the seats if he wasn't all in. Even floating wild theories about career curses hitting. Non-fans. But it wasn't one-sided tons, jumped to his defense, racking up thousands of likes, slamming the overreaction and pushing for chill vibes on personal.

Tastes. Fast forward to April 20th, 2026, and Hutcherson laid it out clear in GQ. He digs Taylor as an artist, calls her great, but her. Sound just doesn't click for him on his runs, or whatever. No judgment, just preference, and he meant every word without the drama. Dude's wisely staying offline to dodge that meme life, which helps him banish into roles better. Each PO show I love LA already got renewed for season 2, and he's back as PETA in the Hunger Games prequel, sunrise on the reaping with Jennifer. Lawrence backlash or not, he's winning.
