Olivia Wilde has addressed the backlash she faced after she shared a message suggesting the frenzy surrounding Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce could be directed towards more important issues.
Earlier this month, Wilde, 39, faced backlash after she posted a tweet on her Instagram Stories that read: ‘I wish Taylor Swift was in love with a climate scientist.’
Speaking with a reporter on Sunday, Wilde said she didn’t intend to hurt any feelings – and had only intended to make a statement on the amount of attention paid on ‘stupid things’.
‘I meant no harm. It’s obviously a comment on how much attention gets paid to stupid things,’ she said as she left the Studio City farmer’s market.
Online critics didn’t hold back after she shared her tweet earlier this month, even dragging her ex-boyfriend Harry Styles into the conversation.

Someone weighed in: ‘She wasn’t worried about climate change when she was flying across the country to go chase Harry lmao.’
There was also a harsh opinion that read, ‘Olivia Wilde is the last person who should be criticizing anyone about who they date.’
A different person simply chimed in, ‘Olivia Wilde is jealous of Taylor Swift.’
One person wrote, ‘Olivia Wilde is just an aging mean girl.’

Swift and Kelce were first linked to each other just over a month ago, but the NFL star is reportedly already smitten with the pop star.
On Saturday, they both flew back to NYC together on Taylor’s private jet, before hitting the town for two PDA-filled date nights on both Saturday and Sunday.
Earlier this month Kelce’s mom Donna Kelce visited the Today show and spoke about her first encounter with Swift.
Seeming a bit uncomfortable, she said, ‘It is fairly new, so I don’t like to talk about it. It’s just one of those things where, you know, obviously everybody saw me. It’s just, you know, another thing that’s amped up my life.’
