Fans of Taylor Swift have reacted to the Lorax parody image that has gone viral on social media. The Gorgeous hitmaker recently released the cover art of her upcoming twelfth studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, and a fan-made parody version has hit the internet.

In the parody version, the protagonist of the image changes from Taylor to Audrey, a character voiced by the Shake It Off singer in the 2012 film. The image's background changed to orange instead of Taylor’s mint green background.

@PopCrave on X shared a side-by-side picture of the two art covers with the caption:
