Taylor Swift Gets Snubbed as Rumored Ex Flame Fernando Alonso Names His “First”

“Someday, I’ll be living in a big old city…” croons Taylor Swift in her hit single “Mean.” For Swift, that big old city has been the backdrop to countless romances, heartbreaks, and tabloid stories. This time, however, it’s not about a breakup or a glamorous tryst but about an unexpected twist involving F1’s star. Remember the whispers linking Swift to Alonso not too long ago? Well, they just took a rather melodious turn. We could leave the Christmas lights up ’til January, Taylor Swift once crooned, hinting at the unexpected twists and turns love might take. It seems this same unpredictability extends to the curious relationship – or lack thereof – between pop sensation Taylor Swift and Fernando Alonso. For those who’ve been living under a rock, a little refresher might be in order.

In mid-April, shortly after Taylor Swift’s breakup with Joe Alwyn, an unverified rumor emerged that she was back in the dating game, this time allegedly with Alonso, fueled by Alonso’s seemingly playful TikTok set to the beat of Swift’s iconic tracks. The waters were muddied even further when GP coverage became a ground for a slew of Swift-themed puns, all delivered with a cheeky smile. As of now, there has been no concrete evidence to either confirm or deny this romantic link. However, a recent revelation from Alonso himself might just put those rumors to rest, or will it?

In a lighthearted interview at Jarama, Alonso was quizzed about his favorite music. Without missing a beat, he responded as quoted by Marca: “Melendi is still the first, then Taylor Swift and maybe Rosalía who I couldn’t see in Barcelona because she just came to the grill and I wasn’t there…” While this might seem like a casual mention to some, for those who’ve been tracking the Swift-Alonso saga, it’s quite telling. Notably, Alonso mentioned Swift but not as his top choice. A snub? Perhaps. Or just a casual remark.

Yet, in the backdrop of the ongoing rumors, this casual name-drop was enough to turn heads. By placing Swift as his second favorite, Alonso might just have subtly addressed and dismissed the rumors that have been circling them. Or perhaps, it’s just an innocent ranking with no ulterior motives.

Swift, it seems, while prominent on his playlist, isn’t quite the reigning queen of his heart. While the Swift-Alonso drama keeps us entertained on one front, a new album drop tugs at the heartstrings of pop enthusiasts. Olivia Rodrigo’s sophomore album “GUTS” is a testimony to the raw emotions and lyrical prowess she’s become known for. But wait, is there a twist in this tale?

The Taylor Swift-Olivia Rodrigo Rumblings

Olivia Rodrigo’s meteoric rise to fame has been nothing short of a sensation, with her second album “GUTS” taking fans on an emotional roller coaster. The album, a follow-up to her explosive debut “Sour”, has especially piqued interest regarding its track “The Grudge”. The lyrics and tone have ignited a firestorm of speculation. Could it be pointing toward an alleged discord between Rodrigo and her long-time idol, Taylor Swift?

“The Grudge” starts with haunting words about a life-changing phone call, potentially alluding to Rodrigo’s interactions with Swift in the past. The vivid lyrics hint at betrayal, a stark contrast from Olivia’s initial admiration for Swift. “You built me up to watch me fall” serves as a poignant line, suggesting deep-seated feelings of disillusionment and hurt.

While there’s no concrete evidence confirming a rift between the two pop sensations, Rodrigo’s emotive songwriting leaves room for interpretation. It’s essential, as listeners, to remember the power of artistic expression and the liberties artists take to convey their emotions, whether or not they’re rooted in reality.

Questions linger. Whispers echo. But, for now, the Swift-Alonso chapter seems to be one written more in melody than in reality. So, shall we just sit back and enjoy the music?
