Abercrombie 'n' Fitch had to pull back their Taylor Swift tees from the brand's shelves nationwide, after receiving backlash for the slogan.

The catch phrase 'more boyfriends than t.s,' written on the T-shirt, was apparently making fun of Swift's turbulent love life.

After the T-shirt hit the stores, the singer's faithful supporters were quick to express their displeasure, People reported.

The American retailer's recorded phone message and Twitter post addressed the issue and said that they were no longer selling the top.

The brand added on the social networking site that they loved Swift's music and think that she's awesome.
