Taylor Swift offered ‘seven’ for the Heartstopper soundtrack after seeing lesbian scene

Taylor Swift released the song seven in 2020, but 3 years later it’s seeing a revival on the Heartstopper soundtrack. In fact, Taylor insisted it be included.

Taylor Swift’s song ‘seven’ was included as the soundtrack for an emotional lesbian scene on TV hit Heartstopper. Heartstopper’s music supervisor, Matt Biffa, confirmed on Twitter that Taylor offered the track.

He replied on Twitter to a fan who insinuated that the show offered Taylor a check for the rights. Matt replied: “She just thought the scene was beautiful and we were then able to make it work.”

The deeply emotional scene is shared between a young lesbian couple, Tara and Darcy. This is a quick spoiler alert, so reader beware. Prior to the scene, Darcy’s mother kicks her out of their household when Darcy insists on wearing a suit to prom. As a result, Darcy stands up Tara who had previously confessed to being in love with Darcy.

After prom, Tara goes looking for Darcy, coming face to face with her mother. While Tara withholds that she is, in fact, Darcy’s girlfriend, she does get a glimpse at just how homophobic Darcy’s mother is. Luckily, the rest of their fans are able to find Darcy and the couple connect for a difficult conversation.
