Taylor Swift’s new album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” touches on themes of love and loss, but also the scrutinizing pressure of immense fame. Fans are theorizing that some of the 31 fresh tracks could be inspired by the 34-year-old's previous relationship with Joe Alwyn, rumored romance with Matty Healy and current partner Travis Kelce. Some suspect think she has another target, too: Her own devoted fan base.
” In one heavily shared line on social media, Swift also appears to poke fun at headlines as she sings, “I’m having his baby,” before pausing to address the likely reaction, adding, “No, I’m not, but you should see your faces.” In “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?,” Swift seems to compare her initial years as a rising artist to her enormous fame today — and how it changed her.
