Taylor Swift has struck again on Jeopardy!, leaving contestants Yogesh Raut, Troy Meyer, and Ben Chan to strike out.

The “Fifteen” songstress received a shoutout in light of her 2008 hit, as clued by host Ken Jennings in the “Songs of Youth” category on Thursday night’s (March 14) Tournament of Champions installment, per Parade.

“Inspired by her bestie, Tay Tay sang when ‘Somebody tells you they love you’ at this title age, ‘You’re gonna believe them,” Jennings shared.

The first to buzz in was Meyer, who offered up “What’s ‘Seventeen?'”

Raut followed Meyer’s guess with “What’s ‘Twenty-two?'”

Jennings ultimately deemed both answers incorrect and revealed the answer to be “What is ‘Fifteen.'”

As reported by Parade, Swift received a category in her honor on Celebrity Jeopardy last December, stumping contestants Kyra Sedgwick, Mo Rocca and Amanda Seales and dismaying Swifties in the process. On the other hand, her fans were thrilled when she inspired another entire category — this time on the flagship series — in January.

In anticipation of the uproar from Swift’s devoted fanbase, Meyer quipped, “We’re gonna get killed for that.”

He and his fellow contestants’ slip-up garnered some chatter, as fans flocked to X (the platform formerly known as Twitter) to harp on the “Fifteen” faux pas.

“Players, Twitter is going to rip you apart for not knowing 15 by taylor swift,” one reiterated online, while another claimed that they were “yelling” the correct song title at their TV, concluding, “As you can guess no one got it.”

“We’re definitely going to get some backlash for that one,” one wrote, while someone simply concluded that they “should be listening to more Taylor songs.”

Jeopardy! airs on weeknights at 7/6c. Check out their website for your local listings.
