Taylor Swift fans believe the pop star dissed her ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn as she debuted a “murder mashup” during her Eras Tour stop in Liverpool on Saturday.
During the acoustic part of her show, the “Lover” songstress brought out her guitar to introduce a rendition of her 2022 song “Carolina” and her 2020 hit “No Body No Crime.”
“This one, I’m gonna call this the ‘murder mashup,'” she told the screaming crowd at Anfield stadium.

Fans were quick to point out that “No Body No Crime,” which appears on Swift’s “Evermore” album, is about a woman killing her cheating husband, while “Carolina” was a track on the 2022 murder mystery film “Where the Crawdads Sing.”
“Her husband’s acting different and it smells like infidelity,” the 14-time Grammy winner, 34, sang in “No Body No Crime.”
“They think she did it but they just can’t prove it / She thinks I did it but she just can’t prove it / No, no body, no crime.”
Meanwhile, the plot in “Where the Crawdad Sings” revolves around a woman suspected of killing her former lover.
In the song for the film, Swift sang, “Carolina stains / On the dress she left / Indelible scars, pivotal mark.”
She continued, “Don’t leave / I’ll make a fist, I’ll make it count / And there are places I will never, ever go / And things that only Carolina will ever know.”
Swifties couldn’t help but assume the mashup was aimed at Alwyn, 33.
“OK, you have to give it to Taylor. A murder mashup right before she heads to London is hysterical,” one person tweeted, referring to the fact that the actor was born in the UK.
“And suddenly the murder mashup makes sense now. Good for her,” another added.
“Murder mashup after all this J in the media discourse. With the lyric I think he did it but I just can’t prove it over and over. I mean maybe not related, but funny anyway,” a third chimed in.
During her show on Saturday, Swift was noticeably emotional as she fought back tears while singing “Champagne Problems.”
The “Cruel Summer” singer received an overwhelming response from the audience as she said, “It is genuinely such an honor to play for a crowd like this. That fact that you would do that for us — I love you so much, Liverpool. Thank you.”
Her passionate performance comes as Alwyn broke his silence on his April 2023 breakup with the pop star.
“I would hope that anyone and everyone can empathize and understand the difficulties that come with the end of a long, loving, fully committed relationship of over six and a half years,” the British actor told the Times Saturday.
“That is a hard thing to navigate.”
Alwyn reflected on the phenomenon surrounding his split with Swift, saying, “What is unusual and abnormal in this situation is that, one week later … it’s suddenly in the public domain and the outside world is able to weigh in.”
He continued, “So you have something very real suddenly thrown into a very unreal space: tabloids, social media, press, where it is then dissected, speculated on, pulled out of shape beyond recognition.
“And the truth is, to that last point, there is always going to be a gap between what is known and what is said. I have made my peace with that.”
The “Conversations with Friends” actor also revealed he and the billionaire singer agreed to keep the details of their romance private when they were together.
After splitting from Alwyn, Swift quickly moved on with The 1975 frontman Matty Healy in May 2023.
The two called it quits a month later and the “Bad Blood” singer has since been involved in a highly publicized relationship with NFL star Travis Kelce.
