Taylor Swift is probably just shaking off the news that yet another artist isn't liking her music. That artist comes in the form of "Suicide Squad" star and 30 Seconds to Mars frontman Jared Leto, whose profanity-laden comments about the 25-year-old Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter were caught on tape and released by TMZ.

"F--- her. I don't give a f--- about her," the Oscar-winning Leto exclaimed in the video, which TMZ reported was from a few months ago, when 30 Seconds to Mars were in the studio, listening to tracks from Swift's "1989."

When news broke out about the video, fans of America's sweetheart were up in arms to call out Leto for being rude. The 43-year-old singer then took to Twitter to issue a public apology, People reports.

"The truth is I think @taylorswift13 is amazing + an incredible example of what's possible," Leto admitted. "If I hurt her or her fans my sincerest apologies."


Meanwhile, Swift has not issued any official statements about Leto's previous comments or his apology. She's busy spending time in Australia, where her "1989" has taken her and where she recently took her band and crew for a vacation. Swift took to Instagram to show her appreciation for the team, writing, "So stoked to be able to take my band and crew on a vacation at the end of a long and wonderful tour. For all their hard work this year, they really deserve it."

"Thank you to Hamilton Island for taking such great care of 125 of the people who work tirelessly to make sure the 1989 World Tour stage gets built, the lights are on, the costumes are made, the guitars are tuned, and the show goes on," she wrote.

Aside from hanging out with her band and crew, Swift also took some time off to catch up with Blake Lively, who was also in Australia filming "The Shallows".

Lively and Swift took to Instagram to share the fun times they spent together taking selfies with kangaroos and visiting local tourist sites.

"Yesterday was such an amazing day off-- roller coasters, kangaroos and LOLs with @blakelively," Swift wrote.

Lively also snapped a selfie with a kangaroo, but not without a Swift photobomb. She joked, "Selfie game was strong ...until I got photobombed by some crazy fan. Where's security when you need it."

Swift's "1989 Tour" kicked off in Tokyo, Japan in May, and is slated to conclude with three nights at the AAMI Park in Melbourne on Dec. 10, 11, and 12.
