Is Lady Gaga streaming The Tortured Poets Department? On Tuesday, the pop star shared a TikTok making reference to one of Taylor Swift‘s lyrics and directing her fans to register to vote as she cleared pregnancy rumors. (And Swift had something to say too!)
“Not pregnant,” Gaga wrote. “Just down bad cryin’ at the gym. Register to vote at www.headcount.org.”
The “just down bad cryin’ at the gym” line is from Tortured Poets song “Down Bad,” on which Swift sings, “Now I’m down bad crying at the gym/Everything comes out teenage petulance/’What if I can’t have him?’”
By Wednesday morning, Swift left a comment on Gaga’s TikTok defending her against those speculating about her body. “Can we all agree that its invasive & irresponsible to comment on a woman’s body,” Swift wrote. “Gaga doesn’t owe anyone an explanation & neither does any woman.”
Gaga originally captioned her post with a link to HeadCount, encouraging fans to “register to vote or check if you’re registered,” ahead of this year’s election.
The pregnancy speculation came up online after fans saw photos of Gaga, dressed in a short black dress and wearing pearls, at her sister’s wedding in Maine over the weekend. (Gaga was her sister’s maid of honor, per The Sun.)
Gaga is set to commence a new era of music and said she was “in the studio every single day” during the premiere of her Gaga Chromatica Ball concert film.
“I love to break genre, and I love to explore music. There’s something really beautiful about knowing that you will be loved no matter what you do,” she said during a Q&A withAccess Hollywood‘s Scott Evans ahead of the film’s screening.
In March, Gagasharedthat she has been “writing some of my best music in as long as I can remember.” Gaga also recently announced therevival of her Jazz and Piano showin Las Vegas, where she performs jazz standards and tracks from the Great American Songbook.
