Lance Bass says the Justin Timberlake hate needs to stop ... because if Britney Spears can forgive him, so can everyone else.

We got the *NSYNC member Thursday at LAX and he told us he was getting set to read Britney's new memoir, which is chocked full of stories about her ex-boyfriend, JT.

Lance says folks coming after Justin for his role in Britney's abortion, the cheating allegations and their eventual breakup should back off and practice a little forgiveness.

While Lance says everyone is entitled to their own opinion about Justin, he says people should take a note from Britney and just cut the guy some slack.

Britney's book has been a smash hit ... and Lance is glad she's been able to tell her side of things, joking about copying her and getting Michelle Williams to do the audio version should he ever write a memoir.

For his part, Justin's been pretty mum on Britney's tell-all ... but Lance has his back.

Busta Rhymes is revealing how he was able to assemble the hip hop Avengers of producing -- Pharrell, Timbaland, Swizz Beatz -- for his new album ... and the idea for his unbeatable team first came to him on a boat.

The Dungeon Dragon checked in with TMZ Hip Hop just minutes before he hit the stage in Munich for 50 Cent's "Final Lap" tour to discuss "BlockBusta" ... the album he says has him wildin' out like the Bussa Bus of old.

His last album, 2021's "E.L.E. 2," was widely billed as his 10th studio project when it dropped ... a clerical error Busta clarified with us.

He partnered with Google Play's inaugural launch in 2012 to release his "Year Of The Dragon" album for free but says the system wasn't set up to properly track its stats, so he treats it like the "special" project it is.

Regardless, he promises nothing short of fireworks on his new, appropriately titled, album ... executive produced by the legendary trio!!!

The stakes is high, as Trugoy would say.

Busta says the idea first came about while yachting with the production brass in Miami, and he figured he'd be missing the chance of a lifetime if he didn't slip some rap talk in the mix.

He says the project first started as an EP with the superproducers producing 2 tracks each but then spiraled into a full-blown album.

Coi Leray and BIA costar on the first pair of singles ... Busta agrees with the sentiment female artists are bringing more fans to rap lately, but says he sees artists as "MC 1st," regardless of gender.

While he gives BIA and Coi serious props as MCs and live performers ... he says he'll have a nice blend of men and women featuring on the final tracklist for "BlockBusta."

You can hear it in his voice, Busta's batteries are recharged, and he'll be releasing even more music rapidly. After "BlockBusta," he tells us he and his ace Spliff Star are dropping an album!!!

Joe Jonas ha regresado a sus deberes de padres, ya que ahora le toca cuidar de sus dos hijas mientras el acuerdo de custodia con Sophie Turner sigue adelante.

El cantante de Jo Bros estuvo haciendo algunos trámites este viernes en Nueva York con sus hijas Delphine de 1 año y Willa de 3. En las fotos lo vemos llevando a una de ellas en brazos y colocándola en su asiento en el carro.

Joe tiene a las niñas hasta el 2 de noviembre en virtud de los términos del acuerdo temporal de custodia que negociaron con Sophie a principios de este mes.

TMZ dio la noticia, Joe y Sophie están cerca de firmar un acuerdo de divorcio y la custodia de las niñas era el mayor punto de fricción.

Mientras Joe tiene literalmente las manos ocupadas con las niñas, Sophie está de vuelta en Londres, filmando las escenas finales de su programa de televisión, "Joan".

Sophie le entregó las niñas a Joe el pasado fin de semana, luego de tenerlas desde el 9 de octubre hasta el 21 de octubre antes de pasar la posta a papá.

Cuando termine el tiempo de Joe, la próxima semana, Sophie se quedará con las niñas hasta el 22 de noviembre y el calendario parece alinearse para que Joe pase Acción de Gracias con sus hijas.

Tiene sentido, es una fecha importante en América y no en el Reino Unido, de donde es Sophie.

Recuerden, Joe y Sophie resolvieron los detalles de la custodia de sus hijas a principios de este mes durante una mediación, y parece que el plan está funcionando hasta ahora.

Joe Jonas is back on daddy duty ... it's his turn to look after his two kids as his child custody agreement with Sophie Turner moves forward.

The Jo Bros singer spent part of his Friday running errands in NYC with their daughters -- 1-year-old Delphine and 3-year-old Willa -- carrying one kiddo in his arms and getting her squared away in her car seat.

Joe's got the kids through November 2 under the terms of the temporary child custody agreement he and his estranged wife hammered out earlier this month.

TMZ broke the story ... Joe and Sophie are close to signing a settlement in their divorce, and child custody has been the biggest sticking point.

While Joe literally has his hands full with the girls, Sophie is back in London ... filming the final scenes for her TV show, "Joan."

Sophie handed the kids off to Joe last weekend -- she had them from Oct. 9 through Oct. 21  before passing the baton off to Dad.

Once Joe's time ends next week, Sophie gets the girls until Nov. 22 ... and the calendar seems to line up for Joe to spend Thanksgiving with his kids.

Makes sense, Turkey Day's big in America, and not in Sophie's native United Kingdom.

Remember ... Joe and Sophie hashed out child custody issues earlier this month during mediation, and it looks like the plan is working so far.

Adidas shoulda seen Kanye West's antisemitic rants coming -- during one of his first meetings with the company, 11 years ago, he reportedly drew a swastika on a shoe sketch.

Shortly after signing on with the German sneaker giant in 2013, employees presented a bunch of shoe sketches to Kayne, which he did not like -- and, in response, he picked up a marker and drew a swastika over one of the sketches ... according to a NYT report.

That move shocked everyone in the room, especially because the meeting was reportedly going down close to Nuremberg, where Nazis infamously stood trial for war crimes after WW II.

Kanye set the bar with that move, though, because the NYT report claims, in future meetings,  he advised "a Jewish Adidas manager to kiss a picture of Adolf Hitler every day" -- and repeatedly told other Adidas employees what a "master marketer" Hitler was, and praised his "command of propaganda."

Keep in mind, Adidas remained in the Yeezy biz for nearly 10 years, and made a ton of money with Kanye, until last year ... when he started publicly spewing his antisemitic beliefs.

Adidas reportedly tripled Kanye's salary during a 2016 contract negotiation but added a morals clause in the deal -- perhaps because it was, by then, well aware of his affinity for Hitler and the Nazis.

Adidas debe haber visto venir los desplantes antisemitas de Kanye West.  Un reporte revela que durante una de sus primeras reuniones con la empresa, hace once años, supuestamente dibujó una esvástica en un boceto de zapatillas.

Poco después de firmar con el gigante deportivo en 2012, los empleados le presentaron un montón de bocetos de zapatillas, que no le gustaron. En respuesta, Kanye cogió un rotulador y dibujó una esvástica sobre uno de los bocetos, según un reportaje del New York Times.

Ese movimiento conmocionó a todos en la sala, sobre todo porque la reunión se estaba llevando a cabo cerca de Nuremberg, donde los nazis infamemente fueron juzgados por crímenes de guerra después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial.

Kanye sentó el tono con ese movimiento, porque el informe del NYT afirma que en futuras reuniones aconsejó a "un gerente judío de Adidas que besara una foto de Adolf Hitler todos los días", y repetidamente dijo a otros empleados de Adidas el gran genio que era Hitler en cuanto al marketing y elogió su "dominio de la propaganda."

Es importante tener en cuenta que Adidas se mantuvo en el negocio junto a Yeezy durante casi diez años e hizo una tonelada de dinero con Kanye hasta el año pasado, cuando comenzó a vomitar sus creencias antisemitas públicamente.

Adidas supuestamente triplicó el salario de Kanye durante una negociación de contrato en 2016, pero agregó una cláusula moral en el acuerdo, tal vez porque para entonces ya era muy consciente de su afinidad hacia Hitler y los nazis.

Lizzo's tour staffers have her back in the sexual harassment lawsuit leveled against the singer by some former dancers ... saying Lizzo promoted a positive environment and never forced anyone to go to sex shows they didn't want to attend.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, 18 independent members of Lizzo's touring company wrote declarations standing with Lizzo and disputing the claims made against her by three of her former dancers ... Arianna Davis, Crystal Williams and Noelle Rodriguez.

Kiara Mooring, a dancer on the tour, is pushing back against claims there was an unspoken rule about facing punishment for not going out with Lizzo when invited -- as the dancers claim in their suit.

She says, "This claim also makes no sense because plenty of the dancers (myself included) did not go to Bananenbar that night and we still have our job dancing with Lizzo."

Remember ... Bananenbar hosts Amsterdam's famed banana sex show, and it's where the dancers suing Lizzo claim she sexually denigrated them by allegedly forcing them to touch the nude performers.

Melissa Locke, another dancer, says she remembers talking with two of Lizzo's accusers, Davis and Rodriguez, the morning after the Bananenbar outing. She says, "They never said they felt uncomfortable or pressured. They were very enthusiastic about what a great night out they had."

Melissa adds ... "I remember telling them, 'That sounds like so much fun, I wish you had woken me up to go with you.' They agreed that it was a fun night and told me that they went out in the Red Light District after. They did not complain or sound upset in any way."

Davis claims Lizzo body-shamed her for gaining weight and used an admission of an eating disorder to justify firing her, but two other dancers say they aren't buying it.

Alaini Walker, who started dancing on tour after the accusers were out, says ... "In my experience, there was absolutely no body shaming on tour. I have experienced racial discrimination, sexual harassment and body shaming in this industry, but never while working with Lizzo. In fact, Lizzo’s tour felt like the opposite of many negative experiences I have had as a dancer."

Asia Banks backs up Alaini, saying ... "I was the biggest dancer on the tour. Lizzo always went out of her way to make me feel secure and confident in my body, including by making sure I was comfortable in every single costume for the show."

Zuri Appleby, the bass player, says Davis was never fat-shamed ... "To the contrary, everyone on the tour was genuinely concerned about Davis, not because she had gained weight, but because she was lax about her performances, her hygiene and her health."

Chawnta Van, a dancer, says she never experienced or witnessed racism on tour. She says Lizzo supports and empowers Black women and "would never tolerate any racism on tour."

Lizzo's accusers claim they had to turn down other dancing gigs during pauses on tour ... but Chawnta says the dancers had a retainer where they would be paid a percentage of their weekly rate when the tour was paused, and could still book other gigs when Lizzo didn't have a show.

Remember ... Noelle claims she feared Lizzo was going to physically attack her during a May 3 meeting where she resigned, but another dancer who says she was there claims, "Lizzo never got near Rodriguez or in her face."

The assistant tour manager, Molly Gordon, says Crystal was fired for performance, tardiness and budget restrictions ... and she says Crystal begged to hang around on tour after being given the boot.

El personal de la gira de Lizzo está saliendo en defensa de ella en la demanda por acoso sexual presentada por algunas de sus ex bailarinas, diciendo que Lizzo promovió un ambiente positivo y nunca obligó a nadie a ir a shows sexuales a los que no querían asistir.

De acuerdo con nuevos documentos legales obtenidos por TMZ, 18 miembros independientes de la compañía de Lizzo escribieron declaraciones de apoyo a la cantante y están contradiciendo las afirmaciones hechas por tres de sus ex bailarinas contra ella. Las demandantes son Arianna Davis, Crystal Williams y Noelle Rodriguez.

Kiara Mooring, una bailarina de la gira, se está oponiendo a las afirmaciones de que había una regla tácita que castigaba a quien no quisiera salir con Lizzo cuando se le invitaba, como afirman las bailarinas en su demanda.

Dice: "Esta afirmación tampoco tiene sentido porque muchas bailarinas (yo incluida) no fuimos a Bananenbar esa noche y seguimos teniendo nuestro trabajo con Lizzo".

Recuerden, Bananenbar acoge un famoso espectáculo de sexo con plátanos en Ámsterdam, y es donde las bailarinas que demandan a Lizzo afirman que las denigró sexualmente al supuestamente obligarlas a tocar a artistas desnudos.

Melissa Locke, otra bailarina, dice que recuerda haber hablado con dos de las denunciantes, Davis y Rodríguez, a la mañana siguiente del show y "nunca dijeron que se sintieron incómodas o presionadas. Estaban muy entusiasmadas por la gran noche que pasaron".

Melissa añade: "Recuerdo haberles dicho: 'Eso suena muy divertido, ojalá me hubieras despertado para ir contigo'. Estuvieron de acuerdo en que fue una noche divertida y me contaron que después salieron por el Barrio Rojo. No se quejaron ni parecían molestas".

Davis afirma que Lizzo la avergonzó por ganar peso y utilizó el diagnóstico de un trastorno alimentario para justificar su despido, pero otras dos bailarinas dicen que no se lo creen.

Alaini Walker, quien comenzó a bailar en la gira después de que las denunciantes se fueron, dice: "En mi experiencia, no hubo absolutamente ningún body shaming (avergonzar el cuerpo de otro) en la gira. He sufrido discriminación racial, acoso sexual e humillación por mi cuerpo en esta industria, pero nunca mientras trabajaba con Lizzo. De hecho, su gira me pareció lo contrario de muchas experiencias negativas que he tenido como bailarina."

Asia Banks respalda a Alaini, diciendo: "Yo era la mejor bailarina de la gira. Lizzo siempre hizo todo lo posible para que me sintiera segura y confiada con mi cuerpo, incluso asegurándose de que me sintiera cómoda en cada uno de los trajes del espectáculo".

Zuri Appleby, el bajista, dice que Davis nunca se avergonzó de la gordura: "Al contrario, todo el mundo en la gira estaba genuinamente preocupado por Davis, no porque hubiera engordado, sino porque era poco estricta con sus actuaciones, su higiene y su salud."

Chawnta Van, bailarina, dice que nunca experimentó ni presenció racismo en la gira. Dice que Lizzo apoya y empodera a las mujeres negras y "nunca toleraría ningún racismo en su gira".

Las demandantes de Lizzo afirman que tuvieron que rechazar otras actuaciones de baile durante las pausas de la gira, pero Chawnta dice que los bailarines tenían un "retenedor" que les permitía acceder a un porcentaje de su tarifa semanal cuando la gira estaba en pausa, y que se podían agendar otros conciertos cuando Lizzo no tenía un show.

Recuerden, Noelle afirma que temía que Lizzo fuera a agredirla físicamente durante una reunión el 3 de mayo en la que dimitió, pero otra bailarina que dice haber estado allí afirma: "Lizzo nunca se acercó a Rodriguez ni la miró a la cara."

Una asistente de la gira, Molly Gordon, dice que Crystal fue despedida por rendimiento, tardanza y restricciones presupuestarias. Asegura que Crystal le suplicó que la dejaran quedarse después de que le dieron la patada.

Ethan Slater is keepin' it quiet on his love life with Ariana Grande ... refusing to spill any relationship tea while stepping out of court after a divorce hearing.

The actor/singer was leaving a New York courtroom Friday following an appointment to handle the ongoing divorce and custody proceedings with his estranged wife, Lilly Jay.

Ethan didn't wanna chat, even when asked about Ariana. We also touched on his plans for co-parenting once his divorce is finalized, but all he gave was a smirk.

TMZ broke the story, Ethan and Ariana were spotted together last week on a date night in NYC, grabbing a a private table in the heart of Manhattan. Witnesses told us they were definitely flirty and touchy-feely during the night out.

They also took to Disney World last month, getting a VIP tour ... so their relationship certainly hasn't turned sour.

Remember, Ethan filed for divorce from Lilly in July, and sources told us Ethan "desperately" wants to co-parent their infant son.

El abogado de Britney Spears se está creyendo demasiado el cuento, coronándose a sí mismo incluso como el "Rey de los Litigios de Entretenimiento" durante una acalorada conversación con el abogado de Jamie Spears.

Mathew Rosengart le gritó la frase al abogado de Jamie, Alex Weingarten, cuando los dos estaban en medio de las negociaciones sobre las liquidaciones el verano pasado... o al menos eso cuenta Alex.

Weingarten recuerda que después de decirle al abogado de Britney que estaba muy equivocado respecto a que Jamie autorizara la vigilancia ilegal de Britney y de advertirle que el estatuto de limitaciones estaba a punto de expirar, Rosengart comenzó a gritar que él era el "Rey de los litigios de entretenimiento."

Weingarten dice que le dijo a Rosengart que estaba malgastando el dinero de su cliente al presionar con sus demandas. "Rosengart se negó [a llegar a un acuerdo] y dijo que si no le pagaban 7 millones de dólares para cubrir sus honorarios legales, iba a presentar nuevas demandas contra Jamie y otros", dice Weingarten a TMZ.

Weingarten continúa diciendo: "El abogado de Britney ha malgastado más de 7 millones de dólares de su dinero en nada".

TMZ publicó la noticia, ahora Rosengart quiere llegar a un acuerdo con Jamie, pero su gente le está diciendo que no se tome la molestia, pues ya lo arruinó con esperar demasiado tiempo. Weingarten dice que no tenían ninguna vigilancia ilegal, pero incluso si Rosengart quería presionar frente a ese reclamo, ya no puede hacerlo. El plazo de prescripción expiró hace mucho tiempo.

Weingarten también dice que Rosengart está batallando con los documentos, porque "va a ser embarazoso para él personalmente y devastador para las alegaciones de su cliente".

En cuanto a Rosengart, este también le dijo a TMZ lo que piensa de su adversario legal: "Es un conocido matón, se ha comportado vergonzosamente en este asunto, presentando falsas representaciones tras falsas representaciones, incluso en la corte. Su objetivo final es intimidar y acosar a Britney Spears ..."

Britney Spears' lawyer is drinking his own Kool-Aid ... crowning himself the "King of Entertainment Litigation" during a heated conversation with Jamie Spears' attorney.

Mathew Rosengart screamed the phrase at Jamie's attorney, Alex Weingarten, when the two were going back and forth over settlement negotiations last summer ... at least according to Alex.

The way Weingarten recalls the conversation ... after telling Britney's lawyer he was dead wrong about Jamie authorizing illegal surveillance of Britney and warning him the statute of limitations was about to expire, Rosengart started yelling about being the "King of Entertainment Litigation."

Weingarten says he told Rosengart he was wasting his client's money by pressing his claims, but Weingarten tells TMZ, "Rosengart refused [to settle] and said that if he was not paid $7 million to cover his legal fees, that he was going to file new lawsuits against Jamie and others."

Weingarten goes on to tell TMZ, "Britney's lawyer has wasted over $7 million of her money on nothing."

TMZ broke the story ... Rosengart now wants to settle with Jamie, but his camp is telling Rosengart to go pound sand because he blew it by waiting way too long. Weingarten says there was no illegal surveillance, but even if Rosengart wanted to press that claim, he can't anymore ... the statute of limitations has long since expired.

Weingarten also says Rosengart has been fighting turning over documents, because "it will be embarrassing to him personally and devastating to his client's allegations."

As for Rosengart, he tells TMZ what he thinks of his legal adversary ... "A known bully, he has conducted himself disgracefully in this matter, making false representation after false representation including to the court. His entire endgame is to bully and harass Britney Spears ..."

Shaquille O'Neal and Damian Lillard are joining a new kind of super team ... hopping on a rap remix with Rick Ross and Meek Mill!!

The two superstar MCs just dropped their remix to their new track titled "SHAQ & KOBE" on Friday ... enlisting the two hoopers to add verses of their own.

The Bucks All-Star -- AKA Dame D.O.L.L.A -- was the first athlete to deliver his lyrics ... with a few of his basketball highlights playing right before the start -- "Dame from the hash mark, a three, oh my goodness."

Lillard made several sports references throughout his part ... with lines like, "I'm shot callin', not stallin' and not hoggin'/Pass the ball, we runnin' it up and we not joggin'," ... as well as a nod to the G.O.A.T., Michael Jordan.

"Jordan my tongue when I'm on my king s***," Dame said.

Shaq -- who's no stranger to the music industry -- had even more bars about his hoops career ... name-dropping Spurs legend Tim Duncan and his former head coach, Phil Jackson.

"Foreign 'round, flyin' spurs like when I bullied Duncan," the Hall of Famer said ... later adding, "I can hear the money talkin' like if it was Phil."

O'Neal -- who had a stake in the Sacramento Kings until 2022 -- also wrote about his venture into team ownership -- "Did a song with Biggie, it was all a dream, so was ballin' 'til I made it, now we own a team."

Toward the end of Shaq's verse, he mentions his old teammate and friend, Kobe Bryant ... saying, "I'ma bring the drama 'til I'm with the Mamba."

Taylor Swift tiene otro logro más del que presumir, ¡¡¡ahora es multimillonaria!!!

La estrella del pop ganadora de varios Grammy tiene actualmente un patrimonio neto total de 1,1 mil millones de dólares y todo gracias a su gira "Eras" que agotó todas las entradas, comenzando en marzo y extendiéndose hasta el verano, lo que también le dio un gran impulso a la economía de Estados Unidos, según reporta Bloomberg News.

Bloomberg dice que Taylor es una de las pocas cantantes que ha alcanzado esta cima basándose únicamente en sus ventas de conciertos y grabaciones.

No hace falta decir que Taylor ha tenido un año increíble. No solo está llenando enormes estadios con sus actuaciones en vivo, sino que también está arrasando en taquilla.

En su primer fin de semana, su película "Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour", recaudó la suculenta suma de 96 millones de dólares en Estados Unidos y Canadá. AMC informó que ha sido la película de conciertos más taquillera de la historia en un fin de semana de estreno.

Más aún, CNN dice que la gira "Eras" podría recaudar $2.2 mil millones en ventas de entradas solo en América del Norte, por lo que sería también la gira más taquillera de todos los tiempos. Taylor terminó la primera etapa del tour en agosto, pero hay una segunda etapa programada en Estados Unidos para el próximo año. Su gira internacional, en tanto, comienza el próximo mes.

En cuanto a su vida amorosa, Taylor también ha sido un éxito de taquilla últimamente. Se anotó una victoria a lo grande con la llegada de su nuevo galán del Kansas City Chiefs, Travis Kelce.

La pareja parece estar muy interesada el uno en el otro, saliendo y divirtiéndose juntos. Taylor incluso ha asistido a los partidos de la NFL de Travis y se ha acercado a sus padres.

Taylor Swift has yet another achievement to add to her long line of successes ... she's now a billionaire!!!

The Grammy-winning pop star currently has a total net worth of $1.1 billion and it's all thanks to her sold-out "Eras" tour that kicked off in March and extended through the summer, which also gave the U.S. economy a major boost, according to Bloomberg News.

Bloomberg says Taylor is one of just a few musicians who have reached this mountain top based solely on their concert and recording sales.

Needless to say, Taylor has had one helluva year so far. She's not only filling up huge arenas with her live performances, but she's also killing it at the box office.

In its first weekend, her concert film, "Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour," pulled in a whopping $96 million in the U.S. and Canada. AMC theaters reported that it was the highest-grossing concert movie ever domestically for an opening weekend.

What's more ... CNN says the "Eras" tour could bring $2.2 billion in ticket sales in North America alone making it the top-grossing tour of all time. Taylor ended the first leg of her tour in August, but there's a second leg launching next year in the U.S -- while her international leg begins next month.

As for her love life ... Taylor recently hit the jackpot with her new beau -- superstar Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

The couple appears to be really into each other, going out and having all sorts of fun together. Taylor has even been attending Travis' NFL games and getting close to his parents.

Harry Styles is the latest of Taylor Swift's exes to get shaded in a new vault track ... this according to fans who are convinced he's the "lying traitor" she's singing about.

On "1989 (Taylor's Version)," which dropped Friday, there's a new song -- "Is It Over Now?" -- and Swifties are convinced it's about her brief relationship with the former One Direction star.

Taylor and Harry dated from 2012 to 2013, and the original "1989" album came out in 2014, so the timeline's already telling ... but the lyrics are even a bigger clue, according to fans -- talking about a time her ex "lost control," resulting in "red blood" and "white snow."

Fans have started to connect the dots ... saying Taylor claimed in 2014 she got into a snowmobile accident with an ex. At the time, Harry was spotted with a bandage on his chin.

She sang about the accident in the track "Out of the Woods," also from 2014 -- “Remember when you hit the brakes too soon/Twenty stitches in a hospital room/When you started crying, baby, I did too.”

That's not all ... the new song talks about Taylor wearing a "blue dress on a boat," and a pic from 2013 showed her wearing exactly that while taking a boat ride away from the Virgin Islands, where she was vacationing with Harry.

Harry Styles es el último de los ex de Taylor Swift que está siendo despreciado, esto, de acuerdo con los fans, quienes están convencidos de que él es el "traidor mentiroso" al que hace referencia la nueva pista de su álbum remasterizado

En la nueva versión de "1989 (Taylor's Version)", que salió el viernes, hay una nueva canción "Is It Over Now?", y los Swifties están convencidos de que se trata sobre su breve relación con la ex estrella de One Direction.

Taylor y Harry salieron de 2012 a 2013, y el álbum original "1989" salió en 2014, por lo que la línea de tiempo ya es reveladora. Pero la letra de esta nueva canción da aún más pistas, según los fans. En ella se refiere a un momento en que su ex "perdió el control", lo que terminó en "sangre roja" y "nieve blanca".

Los fans han comenzado a conectar los puntos, diciendo que Taylor afirmó en 2014 que se metió en un accidente de moto de nieve con un ex. En ese momento, Harry fue visto con un vendaje en la barbilla.

Ella cantó sobre el accidente en la pista "Out of the Woods", también de 2014. La letra dice: "Recuerda cuando pisaste los frenos demasiado pronto/Veinte puntos de sutura en una habitación de hospital/Cuando empezaste a llorar, baby, yo también lo hice".

Eso no es todo, la nueva canción habla de Taylor usando un "vestido azul en un barco", y una foto de 2013 la mostró usando exactamente el mismo atuendo mientras daba un paseo en barco lejos de las Islas Vírgenes, donde estaba de vacaciones con Harry.
