Taylor Swift’s fans believe that leaked lyrics from a track on her album “The Life of a Showgirl” are about her rumored rival Charli XCX via Page Six.
Swifties took to Reddit and X Thursday to speculate about what Swift wrote in “Actually Romantic,” a song whose title bears a notable resemblance to Charli’s “Everything is romantic.”
Many people argued online that Swift’s line “I heard you call me ‘Boring Barbie’ when the coke’s got you brave” is a direct jab at Charli, as the latter has been open about her alleged drug use in her music.
On the smash hit “365” (from Charli XCX’s “Brat” album), for example, the British artist sings, “Should we do a little key? Should we have a little line?”
Swift, and Charli share a long history together as the “Apple” singer opened up for the Grammy winner on her Reputation Tour in 2018. At the time, Charli even took the stage alongside Swift to perform “Shake It Off” together. However, their friendship appeared to take a turn when the “Girl, So Confusing” singer formed a tighter bond with the “Bad Blood” singer’s ex Matty Healy.
Charli has spent more time with The 1975 frontman in recent years since she dated — and is now married to — Healy’s bandmate George Daniel. It’s also been reported that the “Boom Clap” hitmaker introduced the British rocker to his now-fiancée, Gabbriette Bechtel.
