Olivia Rodrigo responds to Taylor Swift feud rumors Instagram: taylorswift, oliviarodrigoAfter Olivia Rodrigo handed over song credits to Taylor Swift, some fans of the two singers have reason to believe that they are feuding. Olivia Rodrigo sprung into the music industry after she dipped her toes into acting as a teenage Disney actress in \u2018Bizaardvark\u2019 and \u2018High School Musical: The Musical: The Series.\u2019 Her first song \u2018Drivers License\u2019 was released in January 2021 and helped Rodrigo establish a foundation of fans as a pop singer. As for Taylor Swift, well, she\u2019s been making music for about 17 years, having released her first song \u2018Tim McGraw\u2019 in 2009. Not to mention, the $2.2 billion that Swift\u2019s current \u2018Eras Tour\u2019 has made, as her fan base is one for the record books. Though the two singers have never collaborated on a song together, Rodrigo has used some of Swift\u2019s musical expertise along the way, giving fans reason to think that the two are feuding after the release of Rodrigo\u2019s song \u2018Vampire\u2019 in September of this year. Olivia Rodrigo says she would never say who her songs are about Rodrigo and Swift debuted their likeness to one another at the 2021 BRIT Awards when they posed for a photo together. The two have never quite established a relationship with each other, but that hasn\u2019t stopped Rodrigo from using Swift\u2019s music as inspiration for her own. In fact, Rodrigo\u2019s debut album \u2018Sour,\u2019 which was released in 2021, was brought to life by some of Swift\u2019s songs, as Rodrigo used Swift\u2019s tracks \u2018New Year\u2019s Day\u2019 and \u2018Cruel Summer,\u2019 and interpolated them for her own use in her songs, \u20181 Step Forward, 3 Steps Back\u2019 and \u2018Deja Vu.\u2019 After using Swift\u2019s music and creating her own renditions, Rodrigo legally had to give Swift song credits. However, Swift wasn\u2019t the only writer given song credits, as Rodrigo also gave Swift\u2019s co-writer, St. Vincent, credits as well. This then caused fans to create feud theories of their own, resulting in Rodrigo making a statement in an interview with Rolling Stones, saying that she had no input in who she gave the song credits to, whether it was supposed to just be Swift or Swift and St. Vincent. However, when asked by Rolling Stones if she would make another artist give her credit for song inspiration, she did say, \u201cI don\u2019t think I would ever personally do that. But who\u2019s to say where I\u2019ll be in 20, 30 years? All that I can do is write my songs and focus on what I can control.\u201d Rodrigo\u2019s statement then gave fans even more reason to believe she was shading Swift for the \u2018Sour\u2019 album song credits. Fast forward to her 2023 release of \u2018Vampire,\u2019 and there\u2019s even more speculation of a feud between both Rodrigo and Swift. Rodrigo, however, has made an additional comment regarding her fan theory that \u2018Vampire\u2019 is about Swift, saying, \u201cI was very surprised when people thought that. I never want to say who any of my songs are about.\u201d The \u2018Vampire\u2019 singer continued, \u201cI\u2019ve never done that before in my career and probably won\u2019t. I think it\u2019s better to not pigeonhole a song to being about this one thing.\u201d Though the feud speculation between Rodrigo and Swift has continued, Rodrigo has proceeded to shut down the rumors, saying to Rolling Stones, \u201cI don\u2019t have beef with anyone. I\u2019m very chill. I keep to myself. I have my four friends and my mom, and that\u2019s really the only people I talk to, ever. There\u2019s nothing to say. There\u2019s so many Twitter conspiracy theories. I only look at alien conspiracy theories.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
