Laufey & Clairo Just Dropped the Hottest Swiftie Takes (Literally) with Battle Spicy Wings on ‘Hot Ones Versus’

stayc main image

The "Hot Ones Versus" episode that broke Swiftie Twitter, reinvigorated deep-cut stans, and made "Fearless" cool again

The Internet’s Reaction: Pure Chaos!

  • Fearless streams up 212%, “False God” up 387%
  • “Laufey ranking Fearless over *1989* while her face turns red from hot sauce is the most Gen Z mood”
  • Over 42K #SwiftieSpicyRankings videos in 24 hours (including one of a fan eating a Carolina Reaper while defending reputation)

Why This Episode Broke Music Twitter?

 Nostalgia Wins: In an era dominated by Midnights and TTPD, Fearless getting love proves Swift’s discography has no skips

Deep-Cut Justice: Clairo naming “False God” as her favorite finally gave underrated Swift songs their moment

The New Review System: Music critics are now copying the format, pairing hot takes with hot wings

The Ripple Effects Nobody Saw Coming

When Clairo refused to choose which pop star (Billie Eilish, Dua Lipa, or Charli XCX) she wouldn’t tour with, she bravely took a bite of a scorching wing instead:

“If I just pretend nothing is wrong, then nothing will be wrong.” (RELATABLE!)

The Swiftie Showdown: The Unhinged Ranking That Started It All!

When asked to rank Fearless, Red, *1989*, and Lover, the artists delivered controversial but relatable takes:

During the spicy wing challenge, the two artists were pressed to rank four of Swift’s albums:

Laufey’s Ranking: (Self-Proclaimed “Massive Swiftie”)

  1. Fearless ("My favorite!")
  2. Red
  3. *1989*
  4. Lover

Clairo’s Ranking: (Chaotic Neutral)

  1. Fearless
  2. *1989* ("Maybe over Red?")
  3. Red
  4. Lover ("But ‘False God’ is my all-time favorite Taylor song!")

Both agreed that folklore and evermore deserved special praise, with Laufey confessing:
"evermore is my favorite, I think. But I don’t know if that’s just me wanting to like the one that’s less popular."

Why This Episode Hit Different?

  • Swiftie Cred: Both artists proved their deep-cut knowledge (shout-out to "False God" stans)
  • Unfiltered Reactions: The spice-induced honesty made for hilarious, genuine moments
  • Mutual Respect: Their playful debate highlighted their own musical influences

Final Verdict!

A must-watch for Swifties and music fans alike with just enough heat to keep things interesting. This episode wasn’t just fun, it changed how we debate music. Now excuse us while we listen to “False God” for the 50th time today.
