Taylor Swift has seemingly fired back at Charli xcx on the song Actually Romantic on The Life of a Showgirl.

The pop megastar has set tongues wagging that the track - the title of which is eyebrow-raisingly similar to Charli's Brat song Everything is Romantic - is aimed at the 360 hitmaker.

Taylor dated The 1975 frontman Matty Healy, who is the bandmate of Charli's husband George Daniel, and fans believe Actually Romantic takes shots at her Reputation Tour support act.

Charli's Brat song Sympathy is a Knife is rumoured to be a Taylor diss song, with the British star seemingly wishing that Taylor and Matty split up on the line: “Don’t wanna see her backstage at my boyfriend’s show / Fingers crossed behind my back / I hope they break up quick.”

Now, it seems, Taylor has responded.

She sings on Actually Romantic: “I heard you call me ‘Boring Barbie’ when the coke’s got you brave / High-fived my ex and then you said you’re glad he ghosted me / Wrote me a song saying it makes you sick to see my face / Some people might be offended…”

In the chorus, she fires off “…But it’s actually sweet, all the time you’ve spent on me / It’s honestly wild, all the effort you’ve put in / It’s actually romantic, I really got to hand it to you / No man has ever loved me like you do.”
