Taylor Swift is clearing the air after one of Charli XCX ‘s recent songs led fans to think there might be bad blood between the two pop stars. In “Sympathy Is a Knife,” the third track on Charli’s most recent album, “Brat,” the singer describes feeling anxiety about another woman (“I couldn’t even be her if I tried”), and how said woman was hanging around backstage at 1975 shows, along with Charli’s now-fiancé George Daniel, who drums for the band. Although the song is not critical about the other woman, instead looking inward, internet sleuths figured out it was likely Swift, given that she was dating lead singer Matty Healy when Charli likely wrote the lyrics (including, “Don’t wanna see her backstage at my boyfriend’s show / Fingers crossed behind my back / I hope they break up quick”).
