Kim Gordon Names 1 ‘Pop Icon’ She’d Rather Listen To Over Taylor Swift

The Sonic Youth legend gave her two cents on the “Cruel Summer” singer when asked for her “most controversial pop culture opinion.”

Kim Gordon name-dropped Taylor Swift when asked for her “most controversial pop culture opinion” in an interview published earlier this week.

The Sonic Youth legend told The Guardian that although she doesn’t know if it’s “controversial,” she declared she’s “not really a fan” of the “Folklore” singer-songwriter.

“I couldn’t tell you what her music sounded like, actually,” Gordon said. “When it comes to pop icons, I would choose Billie Eilish.”

While Gordon has admitted she’s light on Swift facts, she told Wallpaper last year that she sensed the singer’s “initial appeal” is that she seems to be an “approachable” person.

“So by writing lyrics about her ex-boyfriends, or break-ups, or whatever, [she] is her using vulnerability [in an intentional way],” she told the magazine last August.
