Taylor Swift/Matty Healy News + Revisiting 00s Tabloid Culture

This week on Name 3 Songs we’re giving our reactions to the biggest news of the week(maybe the year?!) – that Taylor Swift and Matty Healy of The 1975 are dating. Our lives have been full blown chaos since the news of these worlds colliding. We’re breaking down the validity of an unnamed source that brought this story to light in The Sun UK, talking about the significance of this relationship if true, and weighing in with our personal thoughts on this pairing.  And! We’re revisiting a previous episode. With the overwhelming popularity of blind items in the TikTok era, we thought it was worth a trip down podcast memory lane to discuss the way the tabloids treated popstars in the 90s and 00s – and what parallels we can draw to today.   Enjoy this episode?
