Fresh off Taylor Swift’s breakup from Joe Alwyn, she resumed her Eras Tour — and fans think she might be leaving Us cryptic Easter eggs about moving on.
During Eras, the “Mastermind” songstress, 33, belts out “Look What You Made Me Do” for sold-out crowds while interacting with her backup dancers while they, dressed up in her old outfits, plead to get out of glass boxes. Swift had a curious exchange with the Lover lady at her Friday, April 21, show in Houston, Texas.
The Amsterdam star strutted up to her dancer, who dressed in Swift’s “You Need to Calm Down” music video pink fur stole, before forming the letter “L” with her pointer finger and thumb above her forehead, per social media footage. The “L” sign is frequently used as a diss for the word “loser.”
While Swift did not further explain why she wanted to brand the “You Need to Calm Down” girl as a loser, the popular single was one of the tracks from her Lover LP. The 2019 album also featured many love songs about her romance with Alwyn, 32, including “London Boy,” “Paper Rings” and “Cornelia Street.” Swift’s subtly dig at Lover quickly had fans speculating that she subtly reacted to the news of the pair’s recent breakup.
“I’ll take this as her statement,” one Twitter follower quipped on Friday, referring to the Grammy winner’s relative silence about the split.
Another social media user wrote: “‘WONDERLAND’ AND ‘YOU’RE NOT SORRY’ AND ‘LOVER’ IS A LOSER!? GIRL, SHE IS ANGRY AND PETTY TONIGHT! (and we love it ).”
Swift’s two surprise songs in Houston were 1989’s “Wonderland” and Fearless (Taylor’s Version)’s “You’re Not Sorry.” While “Wonderland” tells a reimagined version of Alice in Wonderland, “You’re Not Sorry” is one of her breakup ballads.
