The 'High School Musical: The Musical: The Series' actress finally speaks up after it was speculated that she threw shade at the 'All Too Well' hitmaker on the song amid their rumored feud.

AceShowbiz - Olivia Rodrigo seemingly confirmed that "Vampire" is not a Taylor Swift diss track. In a new interview, the "High School Musical: The Musical: The Series" actress claimed she's "surprised" by rumors saying that she threw shade at the "Red" artist on the tune.

"How do I answer this?" the 20-year-old reportedly whispered to The Guardian journalist Laura Snapes when asked about the speculations. "I mean, I never want to say who any of my songs are about."

"I've never done that before in my career and probably won't. I think it's better to not pigeonhole a song to being about this one thing," she added. "I was very surprised when people thought that."

The theories emerged after a source told RadarOnline.com in July that "Vampire" was inspired by Olivia's fallout with Taylor. "Olivia is heartbroken and can't stand Taylor because Taylor did her dirty."

On the song, which was dropped on June 30, Olivia calls out a "bloodsucker" and "famef**ker." She sings, "I hate to give the satisfaction, asking how you're doing now/ How's the castle built off people you pretend to care about?"

The lyrics continue, "I used to think I was smart/ But you made me look so naive/ The way you sold me for parts as you sunk your teeth into me, oh Bloodsucker, famef**ker." Olivia goes on singing, "And every girl I ever talked to told me you were bad, bad news/ You called them crazy, God, I hate the way I called them crazy too/ You're so convincing."

Olivia and Taylor used to publicly fangirl over each other multiple times via social media. However, things seemingly took a turn when Taylor and Jack Antonoff were given writing credits on Olivia's song "Deja Vu" from her "Sour" album. She told Time magazine in 2021, "It was really frustrating to see people discredit and deny my creativity."

Taylor herself fueled the feud rumors by enlisting Sabrina Carpenter as the tour opener for the Latin American leg of her "The Eras Tour". Olivia and Sabrina were reportedly involved in a love triangle with Joshua Bassett. Olivia's hit song "Drivers License" is widely believed to be about Sabrina and Joshua's romance, which occurred after she split from the actor.
