Shocking: “Taylor Swift’s Shocking Revelation About Ryan Reynolds Sperm That You Won’t Believe!”

On Thursday, Taylor Swift used her platform for good. She told everyone to go see Deadpool & Wolverine this weekend. Did Marvel cut her a check, or did she do this because she just loves her best friend’s husband so much? We’ll never know, but we can dive into one of the odder aspects of the post: Taylor Swift calling Wade Wilson (Deadpool’s government name) her “godkids’ sperm donor.”

In the spirit of Deadpool’s sarcastic, punk-rock nature, Swift is trolling. She’s the godmother to Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s kids, and she takes her duty very seriously. She created characters named after their three daughters on folklore. She dressed up as a squirrel to go trick-or-treating with them one year. She recently guided them backstage at the Eras Tour. To those kids, that’s Aunt Taylor.

Shout out to Wade Wilson, a.k.a. my godkids’ sperm donor,” is Swift’s friendly jab at Reynolds. I think she’s joking that Reynolds is sterile? And that his Deadpool character had to step in? Whatever the message was, Lively approved. She reshared Swift’s post, adding, “I couldn’t have said it better myself. Which is unsurprising given that I have 14 less Grammys and not a single sold out stadium world tour.” Don’t feel too bad for Reynolds that his wife and her best friend are teaming up against him. He certainly got to approve Swift’s post before it went live. That’s what friendship is all about — approving social copy
