So, it’s been a while since we heard about Olivia Rodrigo writing a song for Taylor Swift, you know? It all kicked off when Olivia dropped her track “Vampire.” And from the lyrics, it totally seemed like she was pointing fingers at someone we all know, right? But now, Olivia’s like, “Nah, the internet’s got it all wrong.” This week, in her chat with The Guardian, Olivia Rodrigo talked about the rumors swirling around her song “Vampire” and the supposed Taylor Swift connection.
When they asked her if “Vampire” was a dig at Taylor Swift, her reply was wishy-washy, you know? Olivia was like, “I mean, I never want to spill the beans on who my songs are about. I’ve never done that before in my career, and I probs won’t start now. It’s, like, better not to stick a song to one thing, you feel me?”
But what’s interesting is that she straight-up said there’s no link to the story and that she was totally shook when people thought that. She added, “I was so surprised when people jumped to that conclusion.” This whole drama started when the word “bloodsucker” popped up in her song in a familiar way.
Even though a lot of fans aren’t, like, totally satisfied with her answer, they’re, like, glad she finally spoke up about it after, like, forever.
So, what’s the deal with the Taylor Swift-Olivia Rodrigo feud? Well, it’s all about plagiarism allegations, you know? After Olivia Rodrigo dropped her first album “Sour,” people noticed some, like, similarities between her songs and tracks by Taylor Swift and Paramore. So, Olivia had to fork over royalties, which added up to, like, half the cash from those two songs. Some peeps, like, feel for Olivia, thinking she got a raw deal, and they thought her song “Vampire” was her way of venting, even though Olivia never, like, flat-out said that. Her recent interview comments show she’s trying to dodge naming names in her song.
