Taylor Swift showed her sense of humor by liking an Instagram post that playfully ranked her exes. The post, shared by the media company Betches, creatively used the format of the “Dance Moms” pyramid, which is typically reserved for ranking dancers, to instead categorize Swift’s past and current relationships.
At the apex of the pyramid sits Travis Kelce, Swift’s current partner, signaling his top-tier status. The middle rung features some of Swift’s most talked-about ex-boyfriends: Taylor Lautner, Tom Hiddleston, and Harry Styles, each of whom has shared the spotlight with Swift during various phases of her music career. The bottom tier lists Calvin Harris, Jake Gyllenhaal, Matty Healy, and Joe Alwyn, reflecting a diverse history of relationships that have fueled fan speculation and media frenzy over the years.
The original Instagram post included several other humorous slides, one of which likened decoding Swift’s notorious Easter eggs to juggling multiple high-stress jobs, including “training for a marathon” and “clocking in the overnight shift at the FBI.” Another slide captured a fan’s reaction likening the release of new Swift lyrics to an event in “The Hunger Games,” where each new lyric is as pivotal as a cannon going off.

Swift’s decision to engage with this post is rare and noteworthy, given her typically curated and less interactive social media presence. Her like on the post has sparked an array of reactions from her fans. Some expressed disbelief and excitement, while others saw humor in her acknowledgment of the fan-made rankings. Comments such as “I CANT BELIEVE TAYLOR LIKED THIS… SHE IS COMING FOR JOE,” and “taylor liking actually has me so weak HAHAHAHA,” underscore the impact of her engagement.

Swift’s playful acknowledgment of the ranking post adds a personal touch to the album’s launch, reminding fans of her willingness to engage with them and share a laugh over the narratives that so often surround her personal life.
