Olivia Rodrigo's 'The Grudge': Why Fans Think It's a Taylor Swift DISS Track

[@Cecelia28]

What makes me think this "beef" is real is that for the past 2 years taylor has been pushing sabrina like hell. Grammys, vma,, the eras of tour... her and olivia taking 0 picture at the grammy when they were basically placed next to each other. Olivia didn't attend the tour. I mean... she was a die hard swiftie

[@Cecelia28]

I mean that's weird. I feel like TS is giving mean girl energy and she was probably annoyed by olivia being called the New taylor. And lets face it, when sour came out, it destroyed every ariana, taylors records one by one

Sabrina got death threat, Joshua Bassett was hospitalized due to some heart attack coz of internet trolling, n what did Olivia do? She remained silent, sabrina didn't deserve hate for some guy breaking up (not cheating) with Olivia then dating sabrina, n stealing song is legally not okay, I love Olivia 's song but lets be real, it's not write n legal, maybe she had given royality to Taylor coz of internet pressure too coz people calling her copycat

It’s definitely about Taylor Swift. It’s about the feelings she had when someone that she massively looked up to started competing with her like a fucking child and started to put songs out at the same time as Olivia and then accused her of plagiarism. It clearly tarnished their relationship because they stopped posting about each other on Instagram and then she invited Sabrina on her Era’s tour. Olivia talked about how it made her feel and she tried to play it off and just said it was a massive learning experience and she had to learn how to grow up in the industry a little bit, but it’s obvious that it hurt her feelings. The song describes perfectly what it’s like to fall out of love with your idol.

[@animewizard08]

So, is Taylor Swift supposed to hold back? 🤔 I mean, if she started thinking about other artists before she released an album, she would never be able to do it on the date she wanted because she would have offended whoever that unlucky artist had the same release date as her. The Entertainment Industry is not a charity. It's a competition. Just because Olivia Rodrigo was a massive fan didn't mean she had the dibs or something.

[@jotiejj]

​@@animewizard08Blessing in disguise for Olivia. She sucked it up, slayed with the Guts tour, and now is in heavy demand. Meanwhile, Taylor still singing about the exes and trying to play victim. Also, did you see Sabrina and Gracie bowing down to Taylor at her concert? So cringe. Glad Olivia never opened for that lady.

I think it's more because they're focusing on their own careers right now + Olivia got so much hate for speaking about being a HUGE fan and being so inspired by her, which is probably why she doesn't mention it that much anymore.

If a small nobody youtube artist interpolated Olivia or Taylor's songs and got 0 views/0 listens, there would be no lawsuit.

I support olivia bc one step and three steps back sounds more accurate than dejavu part i think taylor chose that one couse that one is the pretty famous song and she can get more money out from it and i believed after seen all the damage she did to katy perry honestly why?

[@zzziie]

Taylor wasn't that special, she has many influences, and she looks up to Alanis Morissette more btw.

[@pleasecouldyoubetender]

although i think always comparing them and talking about them together is overdone. I absolutely think this song is about the taylor situation. All signs point to that fact

[@HPfan153]

This can’t be true lol. She’s gotta know how the industry works. You can’t copy an artist and expect to not get sued or adding them with a writing cred. This has to be fake news. If not then she is majorly immature and needs a reality check.

[@astigmatismcouple7112]

​@@elcheapoguzmanjust be saying anything lmao, taylor ALWAYS gives credits where it's due and she didn't even sue olivia. olivia herself gave the credits, y'all just want drama for no reason. taylor just minds her business and people like u always be making up shit, get a life

[@spilledsalt]

@@elcheapoguzmanwhy didn’t she get sued then? Clearly you don’t know how IP works or you wouldn’t be trying to expose someone for using an established saying. What’s next Olivia copied “all-American bitch” because it was said in a tweet? Go to bed.

[@spilledsalt]

it’s not about her. Explain why Olivia would be mad at someone because she copied their songs. You think Taylor requested 50% revenue from her songs? The billionaire? DELUSION. You’re attacking the biggest pop star in the world because you’re fav got called out by someone for copying songs. TAYLOR DIDNT CALL HER OUT. No one’s defending Taylor because she needs no defense. The beef doesn’t exist. Olivia stealing songs is a bad habit SHE needs to stop. Not the people she steals from. It’s embarrassing you are trying to deflect because you’re incapable of defending Olivia.

[@spilledsalt]

@elcheapoguzmango do your homework sweetheart. It’s getting past your bed time. You need to stop replying to everyone in this comment section trying to make rebuttals because you’re a “livie”!! You’re so childish and when you grow up you’ll be so embarrassed. It’s not that deep sweetie.

"undying love" so you think olivia is in love with taylor? the song describes a phone call she got in may... olivia earlier said she got broke up on the phone in may. so obviously its about her ex. sorry to break it to you.

no its not 😭

@@emiliass it all points to the album launch in May. And iirc Taylor is still in contact with Liv that time. Sending her flowers etc.

[@recreatio]

@@kayenicolle I have. The song is full of emotion and anger towards someone but that is NOT Taylor, and there's so many things that just discredit that theory. I think the fact that it's referencing an emotionally abusive and draining relationship is kinda clear and hard to miss.

Olivia did this to herself for using Taylor for clout and thinking no one would catch on to it and the Taylor Swift fans didn't like it and so it backfired. She's now always going to be compared to Taylor and everything she puts out with be microanalysed and scrutinized. Also stealing from Taylor and first not crediting Taylor until she was called out didn't help her career

[@emiliass]

she didn't use her for clout. she was a real fan. and she didn't steal from taylor. cruel summer is nothing like deja vu. she said she was inspired by the part when she yells lyrics. but taylor is not even the first person that does that. avril did it all the time. so why don't we just say that taylor stole it from avril? bc its not stealing! its inspiration! olivia had no reason to give credit to her. she just did it to avoid any possible problems after what happened with paramore. the fact that people think this is a reason for a feud is insane.
