Lively didn’t take kindly to the suggestion.
Blake Lively rushed to the defense of Taylor Swift by hitting back at a fan who suggested she should drop one of her most popular songs from her record-breaking Eras Tour as it hits Wembley Stadium in London once again.
The 36-year-old, who starred in Gossip Girl, has been promoting It Ends With Us but entertained BBC Radio 1 Breakfast’s Unpopular Opinion game where she immediately found herself backing up her best friend’s set list.
One fan had called in to suggest that Love Story should be removed to let Fearless take more of a central role but Lively, married to Ryan Reynolds, showed some of her wit and humor by poking fun back at the caller.
“That’s rough,” Lively said live on BBC 1. “You just hate happiness or joy?
“Or just your ears? You don’t like your ears?”
Lively, a huge fan of Swift’s music as well as being one of her closest friends, has visited two Eras Tour shows like the Kansas City Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes and his wife, Brittany, have done too.
Lively, who also starred in Deadpool & Wolverine as Lady Deadpool, first took her two daughters to the event in Philadelphia before heading to Madrid with Reynolds, their daughters and Betty, now aged four.
Yet she lamented that whilst Swift naturally needs a break from singing, she wished the event ran on for a lot longer than the few hours it currently runs for.
“Honestly, 47 hours long so that all the songs could be played at all times,” Lively said when asked how long she wants them to run for. “So my popular opinion is that [I want] all.
“Like, yes. Every song. What’s the setlist? Yes.”
When does Taylor Swift return to the United States?
Taylor Swift has been on a mammoth tour of Eurasia since landing in Tokyo on February 7 and now she’s finally set to conclude this leg of the trip when she closes out her final set at London in the UK on August 20.
Then she will take a break until October 18 before returning at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, with Gracie Adams as the supporting act.
