Tay-Tay’s served up some brand new music, the singer shared ‘Gorgeous’ this morning. It’s the third single from Swift’s forthcoming album ‘Reputation’, following on from ‘Look What You Made Me Do’ and ‘Ready For It?’.

In the track Taylor’s back to what she does best, singing about boyfriends past and present. Some of Taylor fans believe the track is about her current bae actor Joe Alwyn before they started dating. In the chorus, Taylor sings ‘you’re so gorgeous. I can’t say anything to your face. ‘Cause look at your face. And I’m so furious. At you for making me feel this way. But what can I say? You’re gorgeous.’

Tay-Tay continues ‘if you’ve got a girlfriend I’m jealous of here. But if you’re single that’s honestly worse.’ Taylor’s exes even get a shout out in the line ‘And I got a boyfriend, he’s older than us’, which could be referencing Calvin Harris, 33, or Tom Hiddleston, 36.

But Taylor’s fans are divided over whether the track is about Joe or Tom Hiddleston. In particular the line ‘I got a boyfriend, he’s older than us.’ Could be about when Taylor was dating Calvin Harris but was spotted dancing with Hiddleston at the Met Gala. Shortly after Taylor and Calvin split, Taylor was spotted kissing Tom. ‘In the club doing I don’t know what’ could also be referencing Harris’ career as a DJ. Another lyric ‘you should take it as a compliment. That I got drunk and made fun of the way you talk’, might be about Tom’s rather posh British accent.

Reputation lands on 10th November.
