Here’s why Billboard exec Dana Droppo deactivated her X (Twitter)
Dana Droppo deactivated her X (Twitter) very likely because of the immense fan backlash she was receiving from fans. She has shut down her account without giving a notice.
This backlash happened after fans unearthed old tweets of Droppo and circulated them online. Here, she said inappropriate, insulting and hateful things about Taylor Swift.
In one of her old tweets, Droppo called Swift “the new Jennifer Aniston.” She also used the hashtags #CantKeepAMan, #Loser, and #WhatsAWomanGoodFor, referencing the “All Too Well” singer’s extensive relationship history, which includes names like Harry Styles.
Moreover, in another tweet, the Billboard exec claimed that Swift sold a dog to Michael Vick. She added that the singer now hated dogs, Tina Fey, and Amy Poehler. Furthermore, Droppo compared Swift to Kanye West in one tweet, where she said Swift said “shut the f*** up,” when One Direction went on stage during the 2009 VMAs.
Danna Droppo said demeaning things not only about Taylor Swift but also about other singers like Rihanna. In one tweet, she even claimed that TV personality Evelyn Lozada was better than Rihanna. Additionally, she made an inappropriate comment about Rihanna’s v****a by saying it would be “too deep” after childbirth.
The Billboard exec has also made her Instagram handle private. However, fans took notice of Droppo’s deactivation of her X account and continued bashing her online. Moreover, some even called for her resignation and firing from the magazine.
