From Kim Kardashian to Charlie Puth, here are all the celebrities name-checked on Taylor Swift’s album The Tortured Poets Department.
Taylor Swift has done it again. She broke the internet with the release of “Torchard Poets Department” and its double release with “The Anthology” album.
The new album (yes, that’s plural) has everyone talking, so it’s no wonder it has all sorts of connections to ex-boyfriends like Joe Alwyn and Matty Healy.
Tay’s ex-girlfriend’s name is not mentioned, but do you know who is? Quite a few celebrities. Most of them are positive mentions, but Taylor isn’t afraid to throw a little shade…
Here are all the famous names featured on the “So Long London” singer’s album.
Taylor’s The Tortured Poets Division is full of celebrity references.

1. Kim Kardashian
In “The Anthology” edition of “The Tortured Poets Division,” Taylor has a song titled “thanK you aIMee,” with the letters K, I, and M capitalized, apparently spelled “Kim.” There is.
In the song, she mentions “Amy” who caused her “searing pain,” but it’s Kim after Kanye’s “I’m the one who made that bitch famous” lyric. -Obviously a reference to the feud with the Kardashians.
The lyrics “Stomped on my grave” sound like a nod to how Taylor felt her “career was taken away” by Kim and Kanye’s 2016 affair. At the time, a mural titled “In Loving Memories of Taylor Swift 1989-2016” was also painted in Melbourne.

2. Charlie Puth
This was not something we expected, but we welcome it wholeheartedly. In the title track, Taylor sings, “You smoked a cigarette and ate seven chocolate bars/We said Charlie Puth should be a bigger artist.”
Charlie has been a huge fan of Taylor’s for years and is proud to have frequently covered her songs on her shows. Little is known about whether Taylor and Charli have an active friendship, but when Tay joined TikTok, he welcomed her and the “TTPD” singer wrote, “I don’t know what your account is.” Thank you for welcoming me, Piano Prince.”
Many are credited on songs by artists such as Little Mix, Elton John and Justin Bieber, with the ‘One Call Away’ singer-songwriter separate from his own career. I don’t realize that.
He is also musically talented and has shown his talent on TikTok, where all his videos have been viewed millions of times. “If anything comes out of TTPD, I hope it’s the return of Charlie Puth,” one fan told X.
Swifties weren’t expecting to see Charlie Puth’s name checked in the Tortured Poets category.

3. Stevie Nicks
Of course, the album’s booklet features a poem written by Stevie Nicks, but she’s also name-checked on TTPD’s closing track, “Clara Bow.”
Taylor sings, “You look like Stevie Nicks in ’75, hair and lips/The crowd goes wild at her fingertips, half moonshine, full eclipse.”
Fans were overjoyed as they predicted the former Fleetwood Mac bandmate would be joining the ‘Torture Poets’ category. This theory became reality with a Spotify pop-up containing Stevie’s world-famous tambourine.

4. Dylan Thomas and Patti Smith
Of course, on an album dedicated to poetry, Taylor had to partake in references to some iconic poets. In the title track, she sings, “I laughed in your face and said, ‘You’re not Dylan Thomas. I’m not Patti Smith. This isn’t the Chelsea Hotel.’ We are modern fools.”
Dylan is a Welsh poet known for iconic poems such as “Don’t Be So Kind to That Good Night” and “Under Milk Wood.” Patti is an American rock singer, songwriter, musician, and poet. She is best known for her debut album “Horses” and her poem “The Coral Sea.”
Taylor mentioned the Chelsea Hotel, a 19th-century 12-story New York hotel known for hosting writers, painters, authors, and fashionable socialites such as Dylan and Patti. The hotel still calls itself “New York’s best hotel.” new york’.

5. Clara Bow
Taylor has an entire song dedicated to the late troubled socialite Clara Bow, with the lyrics: “You look like Clara Bow/Notable in this light/For the rest of your life.” The song begins with the lyrics, “I knew / You would be chosen like a rose.”
6. Taylor Swift
Taylor believes it’s the first time he’s mentioned his name in a song, which shocked fans.
“Clara Bow,” the closing track from The Tortured Poets Department, ends with the lyrics: “You look like Taylor Swift / We love it from this point of view / You have an edge, she never had / The future is bright”, dazzling. ”
“She looks like Taylor Swift in this light,” Swifties gushed.
