Tay Lautner had a funny response to a TikTok video that imagined how Taylor Swift’s past boyfriends reacted to her new album, The Tortured Poets Department.

TikTok user Ellie Collins created a video titled, “How I picture a bunch of Taylor's exes listening to this for the first time."

As Swift, 34, announced her 11th studio album while accepting a Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album in February, Collins reacted in a funny way. He pretended to be Swift's famous ex-boyfriends like Harry Styles, John Mayer, Tom Hiddleston, Jake Gyllenhaal, Joe Alwyn, and Tay's husband, actor Taylor Lautner.

The satirical videos have gained popularity on TikTok and even Tay, 27, noticed them. She commented, "This is pretty accurate TBH."

Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner, who was 32 at the time, were in a relationship for four months, starting from August to December 2009. Many fans speculate that Swift's song "Back to December" from her Speak Now album is inspired by their short-lived romance.

Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner have both moved on in their personal lives.

Swift premiered the music video during her Eras Tour at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri. Her three costars joined her on stage during the performance. Swift shared with the crowd how Taylor had a positive impact on her life during the making of the Speak Now album.

According to Variety, Swift revealed to the audience that Taylor did all the stunts in the music video. She expressed gratitude towards him and his wife, who have now become her close friends. Swift humorously mentioned that it's easy to remember their names since they all share the same first name.

Taylor expressed his admiration for his ex on stage, saying, "I respect you so much. Not just for the singer you are, the songwriter, the performer — but truly for the human you are. You are gracious, humble, kind and I’m honored to know you."

In terms of Taylor's wife's thoughts on his friendship with his ex, she is a huge fan. The Twilight actor described it as "one of the coolest experiences" to introduce Tay to her favorite singer.

"I never once felt concerned about it, even though it may seem challenging on paper," Taylor shared on his and Tay's podcast, 'The Squeeze,' when discussing his appearance in Swift's video. "Our relationship is strong, and we both have full confidence in it. My wife is amazing - she's the most laid-back and coolest person you'll ever meet. Plus, she's a huge fan of that person."
