Amber Rose is “Team Taylor all the way.”

The television personality told TMZ on Thursday that Taylor Swift is absolutely correct in calling out Netflix for a “deeply sexist” joke in the streaming service’s new show, “Ginny & Georgia.”

Earlier this week, the pop superstar took to Twitter to express outrage after a scene from the show features 16-year-old Ginny (Antonia Gentry) having an argument with her mother Georgia (Brianne Howey) and telling her, “What do you care? You go through men faster than Taylor Swift.”

The joke was immediately called out by Swifties — the singer’s community of fans — who were responsible for the hashtag #RespectTaylorSwift to start trending on Twitter on Sunday.

The following day Swift joined the chorus of criticism and tweeted, “Hey ‘Ginny & Georgia,’ 2010 called and it wants its lazy, deeply sexist joke back. How about we stop degrading hard working women by defining this horse s—t as FuNnY.”

On Thursday afternoon, as Rose stepped out of a West Hollywood restaurant, a TMZ producer asked her thoughts over reports that some people were saying that Swift was overreacting.

“You can never overreact over being sl-t-shamed about your past history of dating or your sexual history at all,” the 37-year-old model, who identifies as a feminist, said.

And not only because March is designated as Women’s History Month, she added.

“Even every other day, women should stick together. Don’t say that they’re overreacting because of how they feel,” she said, adding that Swift “has the right to feel that way.”

Rose has been vocal about being allegedly sl-t-shamed by former boyfriend Kanye West, whom she dated from 2008 until 2010.

She has also been involved in a Los Angeles event designed to bring more awareness to sl-t-shaming.

“The Amber Rose Sl-tWalk is aimed to combat Women’s Equality issues such as sexual injustice, victim blaming, derogatory labeling & gender inequality,” a description on the event’s Twitter page reads.
