Of course, celebrity feuds require more than one party, meaning that our tale of the tape won’t be complete without a look at the icon herself, Taylor Swift.
Taylor Swift Is A Titan Of Music
In the world of music, Taylor Swift has long been one of the most successful performers in the world. Not unlike DiCaprio, Swift turned into a star at a young age, and she has dominated her sphere of entertainment for years. At this point, she is already an iconic piece of music history.
Swift’s ability to transition genres during her career as been truly impressive, as her country roots gave way to her pop turn as her career developed. The switch in sound was a brilliant move by Swift, whose music has remained fresh and relevant with listeners of all ages.
By now, she has seen and done it all in the music industry. Instead of slowing down her pace, Swift has ramped things up in recent years. Between 2017 and 2020, she released four studio albums, three of which achieved at least a Platinum certification by the RIAA.
Now that we have some clarity on both stars and their accomplishments, it’s time to get a gauge on their potential feud. In order to do so, we need to take a look at some alleged clues that were found in one of Swift’s most popular songs, and learn about some impressive dot connecting that has been done.
Taylor Swift Might’ve Taken A Shot At Leonardo DiCaprio In A Song
So, why is there speculation about Swift and DiCaprio having some problems on the low? Well, in true Taylor Swift fashion, there are some alleged clues in her music that some have taken as nods to DiCaprio.
According to Republic World, “Taylor Swift’s The Man is based on the theme of double-standards imposed on women by society. A line from the song goes, “And they would toast to me, oh/Let the players play/I’d be just like Leo/In Saint-Tropez”. This seems to be a direct indication towards Leonardo DiCaprio who was spotted holidaying in Saint Tropez a couple of times with various people.”
Another clue lies in the song’s music video.
“If one notices the music video of The Man very closely, the opening scene itself seems like a subtle nod to Leonardo DiCaprio star of The Wolf of Wall Street. The scene shows Taylor Swift dressed like a man is staring out at the cityscape similar to Leo’s character from the movie. Another close reference to the movie is where Taylor dressed like a man is on a yacht surrounded by a lot of women preceded by an office scene which also bears similarity with ones from The Wolf of Wall Street,” Republic World writes.
The music video and The Wolf of Wall Street also share a connection in cinematographer, Rodrigo Prieto.
Again, nothing has been overtly stated by Swift, but these are some interesting parallels that people could not help but notice.
So, is there some beef going on between Leonardo DiCaprio and Taylor Swift? It could be purely coincidental, but the parallels are undeniable.
