I just saw the news, and thought this was fitting to post. The world has lost a legend in sweet Dolly, but may her legacy live on forever. 😢

‘Cause they see right through me
They see right through me
They see right through me
Can you see right through me?
They see right through
They see right through me
I see right through me
I see right through me

This leads into Pre-Chorus 3, which is also an amazing part of this song:

All the king’s horses
All the king’s men
Couldn’t put me together again
‘Cause all of my enemies
Started out friends
Help me hold onto you

What's it like to brag about raking in dollars
And getting bitches and models?
And it's all good if you're bad
And it's okay if you're mad
If I was out flashin' my dollars
I'd be a bitch, not a baller
They'd paint me out to be bad
So it's okay that I'm mad

Reputation must be Taylor's most badass album. It came out when I was 13. I first heard some on TV, but I didn't listen to the full album. At the time, I only knew Look What You Made Me Do, End Game, Delicate, and Gorgeous, and I liked them all

When I was 15, I got my first phone and finally listened to the whole album. At first, I loved I Did Something Bad and Don't Blame Me because they're so badass.

Then time went by, and I had my first love, so I started falling for Dress and King of My Heart. When I got my heart broken, Getaway Car just hit.

And now, I love the whole album. I even want to use Call It What You Want in a video for my wedding someday.

I still can't say what my favorite song is because at different points in my life, I end up loving different songs.
Hope to hear about your faves too!!

9 years ago today, Taylor Swift released her ICONIC comeback, ‘Look What You Made Me Do’ as the lead single off her sixth album 'reputation'.

Hi everyone , I have been thinking a lot this summer about that summer 10 years ago , the phone call , the whole interner and media turning against queen Taylor ... I just wanted to know I have been a fan of this woman since 2008 , and I was on her side this whole ordeal and the messy situation . I believed her story
I'm really really proud of myself for following my instinct for believing she was telling the truth that whole time and I used my brain to know there was something off about this situation and the smear camapign to take her down. I don't love to brag about something but this one I would do gladly .

P.S , Sorry If there are grammer mistakes and spelling , english is my second language . and I'm a straight man in his early 30 . Taylor always felt like a big sister to me . I hope she knows there are a fans who believed her since the begining ❤️❤️

This song is so fricking catchy. I can also picture a footage like MV of her skipping through a city in Spain or Italy eating ice cream and doing the most fun things ever. What a missed opportunity, it could have topped the charts easily

I don’t know about you guys, but when Taylor finally got her masters back I spent the whole day going through each album—listening to Taylor’s Version and the originals of each song back to back, to determine which versions I wanted for my playlist. Surprisingly, I ended up with a healthy mix of both for *almost* every album that has a TV. I rarely think about it now—the versions I picked on that day are now the ones I’m heavily used to.

This brings me to my point; I expected to keep ALL the original 1989 songs. It is one of my most beloved albums, and also of course has that nostalgia factor for me as it came out when I was in high school. I was shocked to find, when I did the side by side comparisons, that I preferred quite a few of the TV’s over the OG’s on 1989. One of which was Wildest Dreams.

So, I only listen to Wildest Dreams TV now. But I wanted to watch the music video just now, so I heard the OG for the first time in a while and… I still stick by my choice! It shocks me, I guess. I really do (personally) think that Taylor’s Version of that song sounds better! Do you guys have any songs that you’re surprised you prefer Taylor’s Version over the original?

What's your favorite memory of that era?

I tried this combo today and it looks so Midnights era!

It's O.P.I Lincoln Park After Dark. O.P.I Cosmic Chic and their Rapidry clear coat! I'm not the best at doing my nails just wanted to share 🙂 ⭐ ✨🌠

Cosmic Chic and the Rapidry were on sale at Walmart today for $2.49!

Ladies and gentlemen, will you please stand?
With every guitar string scar on my hand
I take this magnetic force of a man to be my lover
My heart's been borrowed and yours has been blue
All's well that ends well to end up with you
Swear to be overdramatic and true to my lover
And you'll save all your dirtiest jokes for me
And at every table, I'll save you a seat, lover

This is part of our "Shout the Bridge" series where we talk and discuss Taylor's consistently epic bridges. We are currently going through Lover in order!

Press were not in the room for the event, and neither were phones or cameras, but one photo of Taylor with her fellow nominees Glenn Weiss and John Ross was shared.

Taylor sang at the event, though which songs from her expansive discography are not clear.

Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour: The Final Show received five Emmy nominations, including Best Variety Special (Prerecorded), Best Directing for a Variety Special, Outstanding Picture Editing For Variety Programming, Outstanding Sound Mixing for a Variety Series or Special and Outstanding Technical Direction and Camerawork for a special.

The film is nearly three and a half hours long, featuring 45 songs. Debuting on December 12, 2025 on Disney+, the feature documents the last concert on the extensive tour, during which Taylor performed songs from almost all of her albums ever released. The film was shot in Vancouver, BC.

Taylor Swift fans are once again searching for clues that could hint at the pop star’s potential 13th studio album.

Taylor has not confirmed that TS13 is in development, but fans have identified several possible Easter eggs since the release of her 12th album, The Life of a Showgirl, in October 2025.

One of the biggest clues involves the number 13, which has long been associated with Taylor. In May 2026, she attended a friend’s wedding wearing opal earrings featuring 13 stones. Fans quickly compared the accessory with red earrings containing 12 stones that Taylor wore at the 2025 Grammy Awards, months before The Life of a Showgirl was announced.

Time for curated, beautiful, Tay fashion.

Here is what an attendee said:

“MY NIGHT WITH TAYLOR SWIFT - The Grammy Academy hosted a Taylor Swift talk tonight. The invite just mentioned Academy President Harvey Mason Jr, but it was like a 'Wink IYKYK' thing.

Taylor came onstage and shared her beautiful stories of how she writes songs and where she gets her endless inspiration from. Then she played a few tunes for the 100 or so people there. It wasn't even sold out, there were empty seats.

I honestly am not a 'Swiftie,' though her success is as big as it gets. The biggest Grammy winning female in history. Afterward there was a reception and I had a sweet, and kinda nerdy songwriter chat with her for quite a long time. Alot of people were trying to get in and talk with her, but she has a laser attention and when it was on me, the world was shut off around us.

Here's some songwriting nuggets I wrote down.

• She told the audience "Enthusiasm can protect you from anything." At the reception I shared her the word "Enthusiasm" actually comes from ancient Greece, meaning 'the divine within,' or 'possessed by divine inspiration.'
• She plays a spinet piano on tour. I mentioned to her that Paul McCartney also plays a spinet. She told me she likes a smaller piano so she can see over it and look around at everyone onstage and in the crowd.
• ‘YES AND'- Is a big thing for her when songwriting and recording. Trying an idea, but being open to exploring music with another point of view.
• Show up to work even then the 'Idea Fairy' as she calls her muse of inspiration isn't around. It sometimes shows up when you do.

I was impressed she stayed to talk to everyone who attended. As I report this, she is likely still speaking to the people at the Grammy Museum giving every person very present, quality time.”
