Breslin changes Swift lyrics to 'unstable cat lady', denies dig

Abigail Breslin has denied she was referring to Taylor Swift when she changed lyrics in a song by the star to "unstable cat lady".

The 'Little Miss Sunshine' actress appeared to criticise the pop star, as she tweeted a variation of the lyrics to Taylor's hit song 'Blank Space'.

In a perceived dig, the 18-year-old star wrote: "Cuz darling I'm a nightmare dressed like an emotionally unstable cat lady. (sic)"

Taylor's original line reads: "'Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream."

However, Breslin has since tweeted she was talking about herself.

to clarify: my tweet earlier quoting a taylor swift lyric was me saying I AM AN EMOTIONALLY UNSTABLE CAT LADY. NOT TAYLOR. JSYK.

It's not the first time Abigail has been caught up in a spat with another celebrity.

In November, she penned the scathing song 'You Suck' which seemed aimed at her ex-boyfriend, 5 Seconds of Summer rocker Michael Clifford, 19.

The video - which is posted on her official YouTube channel - includes the lyrics: "I hate your dumb tattoos/I wish you'd fly to the moon, where there are no girls to use or screw over."

She later told Teen Vogue magazine: "This is a song I wrote about those guys who are players and use people and just generally aren't really good people.

"It's about things I've witnessed - it's not OK when guys don't have respect for girls. I wrote it in the heat of the moment, and I think a lot of people will relate to it."
