• Fans think Taylor Swift is shading Charli XCX on her new album, "The Life of a Showgirl." • Rumors of a rift between the women were sparked last year by Charli's song "Sympathy is a Knife." • Swift and Charli have a decadelong history as friends, tourmates, and pop-star adversaries.

Taylor Swift reignited stan-war discourse on Friday with "Actually Romantic," the seventh song on her new album, "The Life of a Showgirl."

"I heard you call me 'Boring Barbie' when the coke's got you brave / High-fived my ex, and then you said you're glad he ghosted me," Swift sings to open the song.

"Wrote me a song saying it makes you sick to see my face," she continues. "Some people might be offended / But it's actually sweet / All the time you've spent on me."

The song seems like a direct response
