“On Wednesday, Healy finally made some comments about Swift’s ‘The Tortured Poets Department.’ The singer was approached by a photographer who questioned him about ‘his diss track’ on the album and how he ranks it among the other 30 songs. Healy initially seemed confused by the question before finally answering that he had yet to ‘listen’ to his ex-girlfriend’s new album. ‘I haven’t really listened to that much of it,’ Healy said, per TMZ. ‘But I’m sure it’s good.’ Swift’s new album has several songs that fans have claimed directly shed light on her relationship with The 1975 frontman.”
