Matty Healy laughs when asked about ex Taylor Swift's 'diss track' about him on 'TTPD' — has he listened?

But has he listened to “Fortnight”?

Matty Healy is breaking his silence on ex Taylor Swift’s new double album, “The Tortured Poets Department” — and revealing if he actually pressed play on the new tracks.

The 1975 frontman, 35, was approached by paparazzi in L.A. on Wednesday and asked how he would “rate” his “Taylor diss track” compared to others she has written about.

“My diss track? Oh!” he replied.

“I haven’t really listened to that much of it but I’m sure it’s good.”

Swifties were quick to theorize what songs Swift penned about Healy, whom she briefly dated last year. Rumors about a fling began 10 years ago, but the two reconciled after her six-year relationship with Joe Alwyn ended.

Some tunes supposedly about Healy are “Fortnight,” “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived,” “I Can Fix Him” (No Really I Can)” and the title track.

“Like, Who uses typewriters anyway?” Swift, 34, sings on “The Tortured Poets Department.” Healy gushed about his love or typewriters in a 2019 GQ interview.

“I really like typewriters as well. I don’t have one with me because that is impractical, but the thing with typewriters and writing with pen to paper, there’s an element of commitment that goes with the ceremony with it,” he said at the time. “It therefore forces you to concentrate a bit better.”

“Fortnight,” meanwhile, might be about Healy as the title is a British English term defined as “a period of two weeks,” which could refer to their short-lived romance. The song is Swift’s first single off the album with collaborator Post Malone.

Swift and Healy split in June 2023 and the “Midnights” songstress has been dating Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce since September.
