Fans of Taylor Swift have been shocked after it emerged that a contractor for the controversial Immigrations and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) was in attendance at her wedding.

...

It appears that Steven J. Demetriou, the Executive Chair of a company called Amentum Services was also among the crowd gathered to see the happy couple say ‘I do.’

Amentum Services is currently the sole contractor for ICE’s Camp East Montana, a detention centre in El Paso.

The artist has faced swift backlash for her choice of guests, including online commenters who have shared their dismay on social media.

People also love to hate famous people just because they're famous. Which is stupid and a waste of energy.

    or hate her because she invited a Fascist to her wedding? Some celebs did not RSVP.

    For a celeb, or anyone, to not attend a wedding for whatever reason is perfectly fine.

    But not to RSVP is rude and selfish.

    You would do better to RSVP with "I would rather be eaten by fire ants than attend your shitty wedding, and I hope your bride chokes on the cake and vomits all over you."

    Hating anybody is stupid and a waste because hating them doesn't really affect them. It only hurts you. That doesn't stop me from hating certain famous people, though. What can I say? I guess I'm stupid.
