“Bloodsucker, fame f*cker, bleedin’ me dry like a goddamn vampire.”

Is there really a soured relationship between Olivia Rodrigo and Taylor Swift?

Since the “Sour” songstress released her recent single “Vampire” a few months ago, fans have speculated about the subject of the lyrics, which ranges from one of her ex-partners to the somewhat unexpected suggestion of the “Cruel Summer” singer.

According to The Guardian, Swift and Rodrigo’s friendship appeared to fizzle out after the release of Rodrigo’s 2021 album “Sour,” primarily due to copyright issues. She was credited as a co-writer on “Deja Vu” after the “Driver’s License” singer shared about how influential Swift’s “Cruel Summer” bridge was on the song.


Adding to the growing fan speculation, Swift recently invited Sabrina Carpenter, the rumored other party in the “Driver’s License” heartbreak song of Rodrigo, to support her Eras tour.
