A Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga collaboration is in many fans’ wildest dreams.
And some thought they heard the “Mastermind” singer on the track “How Bad Do U Want Me” from Lady Gaga’s new album, Mayhem, released March 7.
One X user shared, “how bad do u want me being a straight up taylor swift song,” while another believed that the song was straight out of Taylor’s famous collection of unreleased songs, sharing, “why was gaga playing in taylor’s vault.”
Taylor was not credited on the song, but Swifties swore they heard her influence, with one writing, “the production? the vocal style? the lyrics? it’s screaming 2014-2019 Taylor.”
However, it’s time to shake off the rumors: Taylor does not actually appear on the track, sources told Us Weekly and Page Six.
E! News has reached out to their reps for comment but hasn’t heard back.
The “Cruel Summer” singer frequently collaborates with other artists, with Post Malone, Ed Sheeran, Lana Del Ray and more on her albums, just to name a few, so the idea wasn’t foreign to fans. In fact, she’s even gone under the radar, secretly working on Rihanna and Calvin Harris’ 2016 song “This Is What You Came For” using the pseudonym Nils Sjöberg.
