Guessing Game: Which Celebrities Are the Surprising Stars of Taylor Swift’s Songs?
Look What You Made Me Do (Reputation, 2017)
Who was it about: Kanye West
Lyrics: “I don’t like your little games… Don’t like your tilted stage… The role you made me play… Of the fool… No, I don’t like you.”
Story behind the lyrics: “Look What You Made Me Do” is a song like a dramatic scene from a high-stakes thriller! The lyrics are loaded with references that had fans buzzing with theories, especially about the long-standing feud with Kanye. Fans immediately connected the lyrics to Kanye’s Saint Pablo tour, which famously featured a floating, tilted stage. The drama intensified with that mock phone call in the song, where Taylor declares that her younger and trusting version can’t come to the phone because she’s dead. It’s a direct throwback to that infamous illegally-recorded exchange with Kanye.
