Like clockwork honestly. She’s ridiculous and I hope Tate and Olivia both top her this week

Honestly though, Taylor did announce this version coming out like a week ago, and Olivia announced the feature this Tuesday. They both suck, but I will say all fault is not just on Taylor but Olivia too (this is coming from someone who loves both their music).

I feel for Ashe though, her single Stop The Wedding! off her new album that debuted yesterday, Girl of Your Dreams, was on the rise and I think could have gone number 1 if both Taylor and Olivia pushed to next week, hopefully it still goes number 1 worldwide. Don’t know much about Tate’s music but I would just love to see some new music hit the top of the charts for a change rather than new remixes/versions of songs already released. Billboard needs to make a new category for that.

Seems like Olivia is purposely releasing the song the same day as Taylor and hoping to capitalize on the existing narrative of this “feud” between them.

Olivia is a reddit approved celebrity so nothing she does is wrong and she is flawless
