POV: You're sleuthing through Taylor Swift's lyrics to find those revelatory gems 👀
They might not be wrong. After all, Swift has used the names of Lively and Reynold’s three daughters - James, 7; Inez, 6; and Betty, 3 - for characters in her 2020album, where she even used ‘Betty’ as the name of a track. So, this might be some clever detective work., revealing, “I named all the characters in this story after my friends’ kids... and I hope you like it!”
“I’ve always loved that in music you can kind of slip into different identities and you can sing from other people’s perspectives. So that’s what I did on this one.” The singer also spoke about their inspiration when she picked up her 2021 Album of the Year Grammy, thanking James, Inez and Betty in her acceptance speech.
