Singer Taylor Swift and supermodels Gigi Hadid and Cara Delevingne have received death threats online.

Police are on the hunt for the alleged online abuser who is said to have posted messages to the trio, reports tmz.com.

The abuser has sent Swift a message saying: "I will kill some of you".

To Delevingne, the abuser messaged: "I will kill your friends and I am excited about it."

They have also tweeted Hadid: "People are going to die they are going to die die die die!"

Model Chrissy Teigen has also received the death threats.
