Charlie Puth subtly reacts to Taylor Swift’s name-drop in ‘The Tortured Poets Department’

He really should be a bigger artist.

Charlie Puth subtly reacted to Taylor Swift name-dropping him in her 11th studio album, “The Tortured Poets Department.”

The “Attention” singer, 32, reposted a slide from Swift’s carousel post that she shared with Swifties on Sunday.

“My mind is blown. I’m completely floored by the love you’ve shown this album. 2.6 million ARE YOU ACTUALLY SERIOUS??” the songstress, 34, captioned behind-the-scenes photos from creating the new music.

“Thank you for listening, streaming, and welcoming Tortured Poets into your life. Feeling completely overwhelmed,” she continued via Instagram. “I was already so fired up to get back to the tour but you doing THIS?? May 9th can’t come soon enough

.”

Puth reshared the sixth photo on his Instagram Story, which showed the “Midnights” singer staring at the camera while wearing headphones in the studio.

Puth’s name quickly went viral once Swift’s title track, “The Tortured Poets Department,” debuted on April 19. The tune is seemingly about her ex Matt Healy.

“You smokеd, then ate seven bars of chocolate,” she sings on the song. “We declared Charlie Puth should be a bigger artist / I scratch your head, you fall asleep/ Like a tattooed golden retriever.”

Swift and the 1975 frontman, 35, briefly dated last summer after her six-year relationship with Joe Alwyn ended. She has been dating Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce since September.

Puth, for his part, has been a fan of Swift’s for years. In 2021, a video of him playing her breakthrough hit “Teardrops on My Guitar” for a New York City crowd circulated on TikTok.

“This is why she’s such a genius, man. These are the chord changes. It’s wonderful. I think it’s wonderful,” he said at the time.

That same year, they interacted on TikTok after Swift joined the platform.

After Puth welcomed his “fellow Sag,” she replied, “I’ve lurked your account for ages! Thanks for the welcome, piano prince

.” The pair, however, have yet to collaborate together.

Swift name-dropped several others on her latest album, including late poet Dylan Thomas and musician Patti Smith, 77. She collaborated with Post Malone, 28, and Florence Welch, 37, and Stevie Nicks, 75, even penned a passage for Swift for the physical copies.
