The celebrity instead has praised the songwriter.

Reba McEntire calls out fake post about Taylor Swift

Yesterday, The Voice star sent a message to fans on Facebook over the fake news post from a page called America Loves Liberty.

Reba McEntire wrote: “Please don’t believe everything you see on the Internet. I did not say this. Taylor [Swift] is a wonderful artist, strong role model and has done so much good for so many people and the music industry”.

Since the fake post gained traction, it has been shared on many platforms. On the page itself it says “nothing on this page is real”, however, users may not click on a page’s About Me section to find out if it was true.

The post has received 1.6k comments and been shared more than 3,000 times already, in just three days.

Linking an article that claims the country singer was outraged at the Super Bowl when she noticed Taylor drinking and laughing in the VIP Suite while she sang the National Anthem – which didn’t happen.

It wrongly quotes Reba seeing her “laughing it up and doing Jager bombs. Disrespectful as all get out”.

They then claims a fake journalist heard the Lover hitmaker described Reba as ‘sub-par’ performer who ‘looks like a frog’.

“I did not say this”

Now Reba McEntire has responded, writing the Taylor Swift post is fake.

She says: “Please don’t believe everything you see on the Internet. I did not say this.

“Taylor is a wonderful artist, strong role model and has done so much good for so many people and the music industry.”

Fans have rallied behind the singer for pointing it out.

One said: “This is why I love Reba, and why I would never believe that article regardless. She would never stoop to being that kind of cruel or hateful.

“Kudos for sharing this, and the truth!”

A second added: “Reba is a beautiful person inside and out .. I knew she would never say those things .. your amazing Reba.”

While a third penned: “That quote is horrid. It’s so obviously made up. I’m a reporter. People just don’t talk like that… especially to reporters.”

Page responds

America Loves Liberty commented on their post themselves after seeing Reba McEntire replied about the Taylor Swift fake news story.

They said: “Oh my. Reba McEntire herself responded to our nonsense.

“Thank you, Ma’am. We love your work. The article is as silly as the headline for a reason. It’s not supposed to be believable.

“Your fans were staunchly on your side long before this post”.
