Taylor Swift and Real Madrid are the crossover nobody saw coming.
The pop sensation dropped her 11th studio album on Friday titled ‘The Life of a Showgirl’ and it’s fair to say that it has broken the internet.
The La Liga giants have been given some welcome exposure by the singerGettySwift has added a further 12 songs to her colossal list of hits and has made some interesting and unexpected references.
The 14-time Grammy Award winner touched on various topics including her past relationships, fame, rapper 50 Cent and bizarrely, the 15-time Champions League winners.
And while she doesn’t go on to sing about Kylian Mbappe’s blistering form in the song ‘Wish List’, Swift does highlight the prestige of signing for the La Liga giants.
How do the lyrics go?
“They want that freedom, living off the grid,
“They want those three dogs that they call their kids,
“And that good surf, no hypocrites,
“They want it all,
“They want a contract with Real Madrid,
“They want that spring break that was f****** lit,
“And then that video taken off the internet,
“They want it all”.
Swift’s two-nighter at the Bernabeu in May has clearly left a lasting effect on herGettyThe lyrics point to how a contract at Real Madrid is on the wish list of all young football players due to the club’s distinction.
Swift clearly knows her history when it comes to European football especially having recently experienced the grandeur of Real Madrid up close.
The American star played two nights of her ‘The Eras Tour’ in May at the Bernabeu and would have seen the glamour of the club first hand.
Her reference to Real Madrid was a smart ploy by Swift who will no doubt draw in a wave of football fans to listen to her new single.
Inspired by Kelce
Real Madrid were not the only sporting footnote as Swift revealed that her relationship with fiancé Travis Kelce was the inspiration behind her new album.
Swift and Kelce have became the new power couple when they started dating in 2023GettyHer romance with the Kansas City Chiefs star blossomed over time after they began dating in 2023.
Discussing the first track on her new album titled ‘The Fate of Ophelia’ Swift told Capital Breakfast: “I’m big on secrecy, I’m big on surprising the fans and rolling it out a specific way.
“It’s weird to be making an album that you’re so proud of, you’re so obsessed with and you can’t talk about it with anybody. It’s this secret and then all of a sudden it’s out in the world.
“It’s all a play on Ophelia from Hamlet who was driven mad by love…The play on that is, you saved me from that fate, you rescued me and like meeting someone who took you away from that way your life could have gone. It’s all very dramatic obviously, because it’s me.”
She then revealed that her new song ‘Opalite’ is Kelce’s favourite on the album.
“That’s his favourite, he loves that one,” Swift said. “Travis’s birthstone is an opal. I thought it was a cool metaphor – it’s a manmade opal and happiness can be manmade too.”
