A pair of underwear has somehow become the internet’s latest guessing game. Sydney Sweeney’s lingerie brand SYRN just dropped a new collection, and one design printed with the phrase “But daddy, I love him” has fans wondering whether it’s an innocent tagline or a pointed nod toward Taylor Swift.
Given Sweeney’s relationship with music executive Scooter Braun — whose history with Swift is anything but friendly — the internet wasted no time connecting the dots.

What Actually Happened
Sweeney shared images of the new SYRN designs on Instagram, describing the collection as featuring some of her personal favorite sayings. One particular pair carried the phrase widely recognized as a Taylor Swift song title, and that’s where the speculation kicked in.
Swift’s fanbase quickly picked up on the timing and wording, especially given Sweeney’s relationship with Braun. Some fans read it as a subtle jab tied to Braun’s long-running conflict with Swift, while others pushed back, pointing out that the phrase existed in pop culture well before Swift’s song, including a similar line from Disney’s The Little Mermaid.
Sweeney herself hasn’t confirmed or denied any connection to Swift or Braun’s history, leaving the interpretation entirely up to fans.
Why The Braun-Swift Feud Still Matters
The tension traces back to 2019, when Braun’s company acquired Big Machine Label Group, which owned the master recordings of Swift’s first six studio albums. Swift said she’d tried to buy her masters herself but felt the terms offered wouldn’t have let her gain full ownership within a reasonable timeframe.
She publicly criticized the deal, calling it deeply upsetting, and the dispute became a flashpoint in broader conversations about artists’ rights, a topic that continues to shape how the music industry treats intellectual property, as explained on Wikipedia. Braun eventually sold the masters to Shamrock Capital in 2020, prompting Swift to begin rerecording her earlier work as “Taylor’s Version.”
The Takeaway
Whether Sweeney’s lingerie choice was a deliberate wink or just a coincidental phrase with multiple cultural roots, it’s clearly reignited chatter around one of pop music’s most talked-about industry battles.
