Diplo Calls Taylor Swift Fans The 'Worst People In The World': Skrillex Collaborator Says He Knows 'Secrets' About 'Black Space' Singer And Is 'Scared For His Life'

If you think 2015 will see the end of the friction between Taylor Swift and Diplo, think again.

During a recent interview with GQ Magazine, Diplo spoke on his ongoing feud with Taylor Swift, including receiving death threats from her fans.

"The repercussions are really bad," said Diplo of making an enemy of Swift. "Like, Taylor Swift fans are really crazy. They threatened to murder me and stuff. It's really bizarre, and disgusting. They're the worst people in the world."

"I dissed Lady Gaga before, and the gays were never even this mean. They're funny. These people are like mean-spirited, evil human beings. I'm not a politician. I shouldn't have to be under the microscope for people like that."

Diplo continued on to say, "Taylor Swift is very strategic with her friends and enemies.

"And I know lots of secrets. I can't divulge, but I know a lot of stuff about her. And I'm scared. I'm scared for my life."

The feud between Diplo and Taylor Swift originated from the "1989" singer writing on song based on her alleged conflict with Katy Perry, Diplo's on-again off-again girlfriend.

"For years, I was never sure if we were friends or not," said Swift. "She would come up to me at awards shows and say something and walk away, and I would think, 'Are we friends, or did she just give me the harshest insult of my life?'"

"Then last year, the other star crossed a line. 'She did something so horrible, I was like, 'Oh, we're just straight-up enemies.' And it wasn't even about a guy! It had to do with business. She basically tried to sabotage an entire arena tour. She tried to hire a bunch of people out from under me. And I'm surprisingly non-confrontational - you would not believe how much I hate conflict. So now I have to avoid her. It's awkward, and I don't like it."
