Matty Healy doesn't intend to write about his "casual romantic liaisons".
Matty Healy won't write about his love life
The 35-year-old singer - who dated Taylor Swift for a few months in 2023 - has insisted that he doesn't have any interest in writing about his love life.
The 1975 frontman said on the 'Doomscroll' podcast: "Last year I became a way more well-known public figure for loads of different reasons. The only reason that I was interested in is kind of like, what I was doing.
"So I think that a lot of artists, they become very interested in their lore, or they become interested in the things that have happened outside of their art that people know about, and they want to address that. And fair enough, do you know what I mean?"
Matty was more willing to write about his love life in the early years of his career. But the singer doesn't feel that it's necessary anymore.
He said: "I would kind of just be lying if I made a record about ... I don’t know, all the stuff that was said about me or my casual romantic liaisons or whatever it may be that I’ve kind of become known for, just because I was famous.
"I think that that’s an obvious thing to draw from. And I’m just not interested in it. And I think like, the maintenance of the status quo is something that I always fight against.
"So the idea of making a record about something that personally happened to me, that by the time I put it out is gonna be like two years old, I see people doing that as well, and it’s not interesting."
