Who’s afraid of Taylor Swift?

The Grammy winner shouted out writers penning positive reviews of her latest album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” after one critic went anonymous over “safety” concerns.

The pop star, 34, reposted Rolling Stone’s “Come for the Torture, Stay for the Poetry” review via Instagram Stories Sunday and celebrated her success with her own song lyrics.

“And that’s the closest I’ve come to my heart exploding,” Swift wrote, referencing a line from her 11th record’s titular track.

She used another lyric from the same song — “Everyone we know understands why it’s meant to be” — in response to the Independent’s review calling her work “irresistible.”

Additionally, Swift reacted to the Times’ five-star review with a lyric from “The Alchemy” reading, “These chemicals hit me like whiiiiite wiiiiine.”

The singer, notably, included the reviewers’ names in her uploads over the weekend.

This social media move came on the heels of Paste Magazine removing their critic’s byline because they “care more about the safety of [their] staff than a name attached to an article.”

The publication explained via X that a negative reviewer of Swift’s 2019 “Lover” album was “sent threats of violence from readers who disagreed with the work.”

With that in mind, their negative “TTPD” review was attributed to “Paste Staff.”

The critique called Swift’s lyrics her “worst … to date,” quipping, “This is your songwriter of the century? Open the schools.”

As for the album’s first single, “Fortnight,” the review labeled Post Malone an “out-of-place guest performer” in a song that “chokes on the vomit of its own opaqueness.”

“The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology” broke Spotify records, becoming the first record to receive more than 300 million streams in one day.

The 31 tracks have made headlines for scathing references to exes Joe Alwyn and Matty Healy, as well as longtime-nemesis Kim Kardashian.
