Taylor Swift ‘Tortured Poets Department’ disses ex Joe Alwyn
Look what you made her do.
Conspiracy theories are running wild as some fans speculate that Taylor Swift is slamming her ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn — all due to naming her 11th studio album, “The Tortured Poets Department.”
It turns out, the British actor, 32, and his famous pals Paul Mescal and Andrew Scott have a group chat with a very similar title.
“JOES GROUPCHAT [sic] W PAUL WAS CALLED THE TORTURED MENS CLUB,” one Swiftie wrote on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday night.
“Apparently, Joe and Paul Mescal’s WhatsApp gc was called ‘the tortured mens club’ LMFAOOOOOOOOOOO,” a second person cackled.
“I’m actually so obsessed with the concept of this album already,” a third fan, who can’t wait for Swift to spill the tea, said.
“‘All’s fair in love and poetry’ is giving ‘you treated me the way you did and it’s fair game for me to write about it,’” they added.
Swift, 34, announced the new music after winning Best Pop Vocal Album for her album, “Midnights,” during the 66th Annual Grammy Awards in LA on Sunday. She spent two years working on the new LP, which certainly means she was working on it while dating Alwyn, 32, from 2017 to 2023.
Alwyn and Mescal, 28, previously opened up about their group chat during a 2022 interview with Variety. It was founded by Scott, 47.
“[Scott is] just on it every day. He’s just on it by himself,” Mescal told the outlet, with Alwyn joking that the “Fleabag” actor is “just messaging himself good mornings.”
In an interview with GQ UK, Alwyn added that the chat name was “a reflection on Connell and Nick.” Alwyn played the character Nick on “Conversations with Friends,” while Mescal played Connell on “Normal People.” Both TV series were adaptations from books written by author Sally Rooney.
While the material on the album — which is set to drop on April 19 — is unknown, it is unlikely to be anything too earth-shattering, as an insider had previously told Page Six that the couple’s breakup “wasn’t dramatic.”
“[The relationship] just ran its course,” the source noted.
Swift, who is currently dating Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, went on to make history by becoming the first artist to win four Album of the Year awards on Sunday night.
“I would love to tell you that this is the best moment in my life,” the 14-time Grammy winner said in her speech. “But I feel this happy when I finished a song or when I cracked the code to a bridge that I love or when I’m shot-listing a music video, or when I’m rehearsing with my dancers or my band or getting ready to go to Tokyo to play a show.”
“Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to do what I love so much,” the “Lavender Haze” singer concluded. “Mind-blown.”
