Guessing Game: Which Celebrities Are the Surprising Stars of Taylor Swift’s Songs?
Call It What You Want (Reputation, 2017)
Who was it about: Katy Perry
Lyrics: “All the drama queens taking swings… All the jokers dressing up as kings.”
Story behind the lyrics: Taylor, in her ever-catchy way, takes a swipe at the grand spectacle of celebrity feuds, with a particular nod to her famous tiff with Katy. She paints a vivid picture of the high-stakes game of fame, where every move is scrutinized, and every word can ignite a battle. The backdrop of this lyrical dig is the intense media spotlight on the Swift-Perry feud, particularly during Katy’s “Witness” press tour, where the conflict was a hot topic. It’s like Taylor is the ringmaster in a circus of fame, where every act is more dramatic than the last.
