Taylor Swift's father accused of attacking paparazzi

Singer Taylor Swift's father was accused of assaulting a journalist. A complaint against Scott Swift was filed by photographer Ben McDonald from Australia, where Taylor Swift's last concert from her tour took place.

According to the 51-year-old photographer, Swift, 71, hit him in the face. Taylor’s press service told a local publication that the paparazzi behaved aggressively. “Two individuals aggressively advanced toward Taylor, grabbing her security personnel and threatening to throw the female employee into the water.” MacDonald denied this and said that there were no women there at all, except for Taylor herself.

The media reported that one of the frames shows Scott Swift showing the middle finger to photographers who are following his daughter. Immediately after the incident, Swift, along with her father and her team, left Australia on a private jet.

For the final part of the tour, Taylor Swift was also accompanied by her boyfriend Travis Kelsey: he attended her performance and then returned to the United States. Soon after this, footage appeared online of the athlete and his friends celebrating their victory in the Super Bowl in a Las Vegas club, accompanied by girls, which did not please many Swift fans.
