🚨Taylor Swift talking about people sleeping on rep:
“I loved reputation. I know what I did… You can come around if you want. It’s OK if you don’t.’ And then 6 or 7 years later, people are like, ‘OMG, like, ‘…Ready For It?’’ People slept on that song.”
Tonight all these lives converge here
The mosaics of laughter and cocktails of tears
Where fraternal souls sing identical things
And it’s beautiful
It’s rapturous.
It is frightening.

I can’t tell you how proud I am to share this with you, an album that just feels so right. A forever thank you goes out to my mentors and friends Max and Shellback for helping me paint this self portrait.
If you thought the big show was wild, perhaps you should come and take a look behind the curtain...
The Life of a Showgirl is out now.

Taylor Swift reveals that she hadn’t finished re-recording ‘reputation’ before gaining ownership of her masters:
“I know, I know. What about Rep TV? Full transparency: I haven’t even re-recorded a quarter of it. The Reputation album was so specific to that time in my life, and I kept hitting a stopping point when I tried to remake it. […] To be perfectly honest, it’s the one album in those first 6 that I thought couldn’t be improved upon by redoing it. Not the music, or photos, or videos. So I kept putting it off.”
I want to share my thoughts around the 143 era. I just want to make clear that this is just my personal opinion and that’s it. Katy Perry is a very important artist in my life and I feel the need to share my feelings on her latest project. I do this with respect to her (Thread)
THIS is why Taylor Swift has not made political statements. Over 150 international shows with millions of lives at stake. Fuck you to everyone who has criticized her for not speaking out as if we all didn’t know this was the reason why.
