Buckle up, friends. We've got some potential feud fodder coming from Taylor Swift's new album, The Life of a Showgirl. Swifties have started dissecting every song lyric to find those all-important Easter Eggs and references (see: Wood about Travis Kelce and maybe CANCELLED! is about Blake Lively?). Now, we've got a potential Charli XCX reference in Actually Romantic.
People think "when the coke's got you brave" lyric is a reference to Charli XCX's Brat album, and "high-fived my ex and then said you're glad he ghosted me" is maybe about Swift's ex Matty Healy... who is a buddy of Charli's husband George Daniel.

And then we've got this visual, which fans immediately connected to Charli XCX because she has a song called... Apple!
Where did the Charli XCX and Taylor Swift feud start?
Seems like the former's song Sympathy is a Knife was a pointed shot at Swift, but there's been no confirmation of that.
Didn't Charli XCX perform on tour with Taylor Swift?
She did! She was on the 1989 World Tour stop in Toronto and was on the Reputation Tour in 2018 as an opening act. So, uh, things might have escalated since then.
