Overview

• Swift released The Life of a Showgirl on October 3, and listeners flagged the track Cancelled! for lines about liking friends who are “cancelled,” which some interpret as a nod to Lively.
• Fans noticed Swift wearing a Lorraine Schwartz pink bracelet in a Spotify clip and alternate cover art that resembles a piece Lively wore to the London It Ends With Us premiere, though no link has been confirmed.
• Blake Lively liked Swift’s Instagram post announcing the album, a small public gesture widely reported as supportive.
• News reports cite Page Six in saying Swift would be deposed in Lively’s dispute with Justin Baldoni only if a judge grants an extension for testimony.
• Us Weekly previously reported Swift’s representative denied any casting or creative role in It Ends With Us, even as Baldoni’s filings referenced texts involving Lively and Swift.
