Ever since Taylor dropped her surprise album Folklore, fans have been busy hunting for Easter eggs, a.k.a. clues embedded in the lyrics, music videos, etc.

Fans have come up with a popular theory that Taylor may have revealed the name of Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds’ third child – there’s a track on the album titled “Betty.”

Taylor and Blake have been friends for years – Blake’s eldest daughter, James, even made a cameo in Taylor’s music video for 2017 track “Gorgeous,” from her Reputation album. And when the singer appeared to namedrop Blake’s two eldest daughter, Jams and Inez, in “Betty,” fan theories went into overdrive with speculations that “Betty” is in honor of Blake’s youngest daughter, who they welcomed in October of 2019.

Recently, Taylor gave a short introduction to her song on Country Radio – and gave a little insight on who inspired the song.

“Everyone makes mistakes, everybody really misses up sometimes. This is a song that I wrote from the perspective of a 17-year-old boy,” Taylor explained, per an audio clip shared by a fan account online.

“I’ve always loved that in music you can kind of slip into different identities, and you can sing from other people’s perspectives. So that’s literally what I did on this one,” she continued. “I named all the characters in this story after my friends’ kids.”

Although Blake didn’t address that fan theory directly – she and Ryan are yet to share the name of their third child with the public – she totally gushed about Taylor’s new album.

Blake went on Instagram Story oto post about Folklore after the album was released, thanking the singer and her collaborators – including the mysterious William Bowery.

“Can we all please crawl inside that piano with you and live in this album…” she wrote alongside a black and white photo of Taylor. “Like you, Folklore is full of heart, soul, humor, passion, intelligence, wit, whimsy, reality, imagination, strength, vulnerability, and above all things: Love.”

Katy Perry Jokes She’s ‘Had It’ With Pregnancy As Due Date Draws Near

Katy Perry is busy as a bee preparing for her baby’s arrival.

The singer went on Instagram to share a photo of the aftermath of a recent shopping trip she went on the for baby supplies.

Reclining in a rocking chair next to some cribs and baby playpens, it appears the expecting mom was left exhausted by her outing.

Tagging her location as “I’ve Had It,” she captioned the snapshot with: “Poopedstar.”

Her fellow American Idol judge, Luke Bryan, recently shared that Katy is due to give birth pretty soon.

“I didn’t know the exact due date … so I texted her like, ‘Hey, just so I can kind of wrap my head around when to really start thinking about you guys and saying prayers and everything,’ so she let me know the due date,” Luke told Entertainment Tonight on Tuesday (August 4). “She’s pretty close.”

As for what he’s getting her baby, “I told her I’m probably gonna send her little girl maybe, like, a little pink BB gun,” Luke said with a laugh. “An old country boy version of little baby girl gifts. Pink camo and a pink BB gun.”

Last month, Katy opened up about her pregnancy journey on KIIS1065’s Kyle and Jackie O radio show.

Revealing she’s now 190 lbs., she says she’s at that point in her pregnancy where “everything is swollen.”

“My hands are swollen, my feet are starting to swell,” she said. She also jokingly referred to herself as “large marge in charge.”

But, all in all, Katy seems to be taking her pregnancy journey very well. “I’m really grateful for my body,” she shared. “Going through this process you get a whole new viewpoint.”

And she’s not letting it slow her down either. “I’m a very active woman… and during this time of COVID — and quite frankly an American revolution — I have been also putting out songs and heading towards putting out a record,” Katy said. “I’m working really hard. The one blessing is I don’t have to travel extremely.”
