He's for a long time had a thing for Taylor, making weird comments that you'd expect out of a creepy high schooler. Things like being weirdly jealous sounding of her boyfriends, to iirc inviting her over, making a joke about comparing her to his wife, and now this. He obviously has a thing for her, and she does not give a fuck. He's a grown up "niceguy" for sure.

I wonder if it's because, regardless of being rich and famous, he can't coerce a pop star like Taylor, he's not that rich or famous.

She's unattainable, and for a narcissist that's irresistible.

I'm sure he could with others, but Taylor is also in the billionaire class that is crushing the planet, so his money isn't really the same incentive.

Ah... So it's not the first interaction of this kind? Is there a list of all the other times he's been creepy niceguy on Swift?

I honestly tried to find one, but Google and Bing's horrid SEO means all I can find is endless trash articles about today's tweet. I wish the internet wasn't stupid now and I could actually search for things

That dude is still so insecure despite his billions.

He's got the standard dickhead internet brainrot but we're somehow supposed to afford weight to it because mOnEy
