Enjoy This List of Celebs Absolutely *Roasting* Their Exes in Breakup Songs

2023 has only been doing its thing for approximately five minutes, and we already have two celebrities out here absolutely eviscerating their exes in songs. Obviously, we're talking about 1) Miley Cyrus's "Flowers"—which she went ahead and released on Liam Hemsworth's birthday, with lyrics that are allegedly a direct reference to a Bruno Mars song he dedicated to her. And 2) Shakira's new collab with Bizarrap, where she tells her ex Gerard Piqué to work out his brain for once, comes for his new girlfriend (You traded a Ferrari for a Twingo / You traded a Rolex for a Casio), and makes a jab at his mom (who, by the way, is fully her next-door neighbor).

And while Shakira and Miley are clearly doing the most, celebrities have been roasting their exes pretty much since the dawn of time. Obviously, an entire college thesis could be written about all the times Taylor Swift has dragged her exes in lyrics (I'm assuming John Mayer sleeps with one eye open at this point), but everyone from Demi Lovato and Alanis Morissette to The Weeknd have dropped breakup songs that are pretty not-so-subtly about past relationships. (Hey, we all handle heartbreak differently, right?) And some of them have revealed kinda shocking information. It's a lot!

Anyway, check out 41 times celebs roasted their exes in songs to feel better about your own levels of petty. 🙃
