Taylor Swift se deleitó con un meme que se reía un poco de su ex Joe Alwyn y que calza con las letras hacia él en su nuevo álbum, y sus fans están encantados.

Antes del lanzamiento del nuevo disco "The Tortured Poets Department" el viernes, la cantante publicó algunas letras insinuando que el nuevo trabajo sería sobre sus ex más recientes, especialmente Joe, con quien salió 6 años.

Como era de esperar, los Swifties abrazaron esta teoría y crearon un montón de memes antes de que saliera el álbum sobre cómo Joe sería expuesto y puesto en vergüenza con la nueva música (lo que resultó ser cierto).
