Taylor Swift's 11th studio album, titled "The Tortured Poets Department," was officially released on April 19th. The return of the 1989-born singer has caused a "shockwave" in the global music scene.
Taylor Swift revealed that "The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology" is actually a double album, a secret she kept hidden until the last minute to surprise her audience: "I’d written so much tortured poetry in the past 2 years and wanted to share it all with you, so here’s the second installment of TTPD: The Anthology. 15 extra songs. And now the story isn’t mine anymore… it’s all yours."
The 'Shake It Off' hitmaker took to her Instagram stories to share multiple reviews of her 11th studio album.
One notable review from Rolling Stone described the 34-year-old as "confused, bitter, raging, vulnerable, yet more gloriously chaotic than we’ve ever heard her before".
Swift shared this review with a caption: "And that's the closest I've come to my heart exploding."
Swift also shared a review from the Independent, where critic Helen Brown wrote: "The whole album is a terrific reminder of the intense, personal connection Swift can conjure in song.
"She fills arenas and dominates the news agenda because listeners can relate to her starry dramas – her tales endow their own experiences with new electricity."
In an editor's note, the publication explained: "There is no byline on this review due to how, in 2019 when Paste reviewed Lover, the writer was sent threats of violence from readers who disagreed with the work. We care more about the safety of our staff than a name attached to an article."
Swift surprised her fans last Friday when she included a diss track about Kardashian in her 11th studio album. The song's lyrics go, “All that time you were throwing’ punches, I was building’ something’ / And I can’t forgive the way you made me feel.”
Additionally, the title of the song only capitalizes the letters “KIM”.
The song continues, “Screamed, ‘F–k you, Aimee’ to the night sky, as the blood was gushing’ / But I can’t forget the way you made me heal.”
Swift fans immediately speculated that the song was about Kim Kardashian. Because, in 2016, Kim Kardashian attempted to sabotage Taylor Swift's career in support of her ex-husband, Kanye West.
In 'Guilty as Sin', Swift sings about having romantic feelings and 'fatal fantasies' for someone from her past while in a relationship with someone else.
Many believe that Swift is talking about Joe Alwyn here - whom she dated for six years before starting a romance with Healy.
Healy's aunt, Debbie Dedes, sister to TV presenter and Healy's mom Denise Welch, told the Mail Online: '"I don't think it will come as a shock to him at all. He's very happy in his new relationship so I'm sure he will be focusing on that. As my nephew, we know a bit more about what went on than has been in the press."
Debbie claimed that Matty Healy is very happy in his new relationship and is focused on his relationship with his girlfriend.
