Taylor Swift has long been one of the most favorite personalities in the music industry, and rumors have been going around that she will soon become ginormously favorite in the entertainment industry too. And while some may argue these rumors and speculation started with Ryan Reynolds’ upcoming Deadpool 3, we tend to differ, because, truth is, these actually started nearly 7 years ago.

Although it may seem surprising for those who forgot or didn’t know, these initially originated back in 2017 with a track from Swift that had fans convinced the billionaire singer was going to defeat Thanos. However, that never came to be, and those rumors drowned, but even then, that ain’t the end of the speculation around Swift joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe!

Taylor Swift fans have figured out the exact dates that she recorded some of her songs from The Tortured Poets Department.
Many of the songs on the album were recorded at Electric Lady Studios in New York City, where Taylor was constantly spotted over the past year while on breaks from the Eras Tour.
At the time, no one knew that Taylor was recording a brand new album and most fans assumed she was working on the Taylor’s Version albums for Taylor Swift and Reputation, which are still on the way.
After Taylor‘s songwriter and producing partner Jack Antonoff shared a series of photos and videos of the singer recording various songs, fans figured out exactly when the songs were recorded thanks to her outfits.

Of all the unpredictable creative exchanges Jack Antonoff has experienced, only one has been digitally immortalized forever — and it was the one. During sessions for Taylor Swift’s 2017 album, Reputation, there was a moment where she was so charged from the magic in the room that she literally screamed — as fans saw in a video she captured on her phone.
Antonoff had been staggering his way through the epic bridge on “Getaway Car.” “I’m in a getaway car, and I’m losing my … something,” the artist-producer offered. The pair...

It appears that Taylor Swift has two songs about Kim Kardashian on her new album The Tortured Poets Department.
Swifties were quick to hypothesize that the song “thanK you aIMee” was about the Skims mogul. After all, her name was spelled out in all caps in the song’s title. After a closer listen, some believe that Taylor is also singing about Kim and her ex-husband Kanye West on “Cassandra.”
Head inside to listen to “Cassandra” and see where the references come in…
If you were unaware, Taylor‘s feud with Kim and Kanye has its roots in Kanye‘s song “Famous.” In the lyrics, he referred to her as a “b-tch” and said that he made her famous.
Kim and Kanye defended themselves in the aftermath of the song’s release, sharing an edited conversation that they had with Taylor. The unedited recording was eventually leaked, affirming details from...

Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn‘s relationship is in the news again ahead of the release of the singer’s new album The Tortured Poets Department.
Like any other accomplished songwriter and artist, Taylor pulls inspiration from her personal life sometimes. That’s particularly the case when she’s in love.
So it shouldn’t be surprising that she’s sung quite a bit about the former couple’s relationship.
The 34-year-old “Enchanted” singer started dating the 33-year-old actor in 2016 – before the release of her album Reputation. They were an item for over six years before splitting up in April 2023.
In the time they were together, Taylor released five albums. Many of them contain love songs that Swifties believe document her relationship with Joe. Some of them were even written alongside her partner.
While teasing the new album earlier this month, Taylor created five playlists of her music for Apple Music.

Taylor Swift and Post Malone Were in the ‘Tortured Poets Department’ Together Way Before ‘Fortnight’
Throughout her career, Taylor Swift has landed 232 songs on the Billboard Hot 100. Included in that are the 49 songs that broke into the Top 10. Within that, 11 topped the chart. Despite having an inescapable presence in pop for over a decade, there’s one artist’s record in particular that sparked envy in her. “‘Better Now’ is so insane,” she told Post Malone when she passed him backstage at the 2018 Billboard Music Awards. “I’m so jealous of that song — that hook.” Last year, in an interview with Howard Stern, Malone recalled the interaction,...

Taylor Swift's song "...Ready For It?" has been a fan favorite ever since it was released on her 2017 album "Reputation." As fans pile into theaters to see the Eras Tour movie and anxiously await the release of "Reputation (Taylor's Version)," the song is getting renewed attention. As one of Swift's sexiest tracks ever, "...Ready For It?" has a prime spot in the Eras Tour setlist, and we can't help but sing along every time. But the song also has some fans wondering which of Swift's exes she was thinking about when she wrote it.
Most of the love songs on "Reputation" were about Swift's then-boyfriend Joe Alwyn, so some fans think the song is about him. They were together from 2016 to 2023. However, some other fans have dug through the lyrics and think a much more likely candidate is Swift's other ex, Harry Styles, whom she briefly connected with...

Ever since Taylor Swift released "Reputation" in 2017, fans have been trying to unpack exactly who and what the songs are about. "Reputation" arrived during a particularly drama-filled moment in Swift's life; most notoriously, she was in the thick of her infamous feud with Kanye West and his then-wife Kim Kardashian, and it certainly seems like "Reputation" was her official statement on all that. There was also a lot going on in Swift's life in the love department, and the album also seems to trace the whirlwind early days of her romance with Joe Alwyn, whom she began dating in 2017 and split from in April 2023. Her relationships with Tom Hiddleston and Calvin Harris may have also gotten a few special mentions, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. With "Reputation," Swift had a lot to say - and she certainly did not hold back.

Taylor Swift’s concert documentary “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” was as brilliant in the theater as it was to witness from the nosebleeds of SoFi Stadium. I won’t say it was better because the collective effervescence of a concert cannot be created without an arena setting and thousands of screaming Swifties, but the film transported me.
The only expectations that weren’t met (because the unexpected is almost always expected from Swift) were those that imply she may hint at the next re-record — rumored to be “Reputation,” which came out originally in 2017 — or anything of that nature.
With the grand entrance Swift makes at the start of the concert memorialized on film in high definition, the “Eras” tour became cemented in history and popular culture.

Among the many big names at the premiere of the “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” concert film was none other than Beyoncé, prompting fans of both pop queens to go feral. With two huge stars in one place though, Jimmy Fallon has a suspicion that Adele was named the “designated survivor” of the night.
For those unfamiliar, “designated survivor” is a real duty in the United States. During any event where multiple major government officials will be in attendance, like a State of the Union or presidential inauguration, one person in the presidential line of succession does not attend, and instead stays at an undisclosed secure location. The concept was even turned into a TV series in 2016, starring Kiefer Sutherland.
“That’s right, Taylor and Beyonce were at the premiere, while Adele stayed in Vegas as the designated survivor,” Fallon joked. “We need to have someone safe at all times.

News broke on April 10 that Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn had quietly called it quits this spring after six years together. Though the pair were together for a long time, both were mostly tight-lipped about their connection and life together - except, that is, when it came to Swift's songwriting.
The pair first connected while Swift was working on her 2017 album "Reputation," and fans believe quite a few songs on the record are about her then-new boyfriend. Many of the songs on her "Lover" album, released in 2019, are all about falling deeper in love with her longtime beau. Her single "Lover," which includes quite a few wedding references, even sparked major engagement rumors for the pair.
When Swift released "Folklore" and "Evermore" in 2020, not only were a few of the songs about her romance with Alwyn, but she teamed up with her partner to write some of them as well.

Taylor Swift’s “The Eras Tour” concert film premiered Wednesday night to an enthusiastic crowd of celebrities, fans and of course Taylor’s team, with the star of the film in attendance. As one of the first to see the film, TheWrap has the scoop on which songs from the wildly popular tour made the film, and which songs were cut.
After making speeches in multiple auditoriums for separate audiences, Swift, clad in a sky blue floral-patterned dress (probably in theme for “1989 (Taylor’s Version) with her hair pinned up like the signature bob she had when that album first came out), sat back to enjoy the experience in one of the IMAX screening rooms with her background vocalists and publicist Tree Paine.
The documentary runs 2 hours and 48 minutes, slightly shorter than Swift’s three-hour setlist and performance, which she has brought to 17 of the United States so far in addition to Mexico.

Taylor Swift announced the official release date for "1989 (Taylor's Version)" this August, but some fans have their eyes on what they think will be the next rerecording after that: "Reputation (Taylor's Version)." Fans got a small preview of one of the album's songs when a snippet of "Delicate (Taylor's Version)" surfaced from a season two episode of "The Summer I Turned Pretty" on Aug. 3, indicating that the rerecorded version is definitely in progress. And on Aug. 23, Amazon Prime Video released the trailer for its upcoming series "Wilderness," and it features the first snippet of "Look What You Made Me Do (Taylor's Version)."
However, fans may still have to wait a while for the album, as Ed Sheeran - who appears on the track "End Game" on the original "Reputation" - revealed this summer that he hadn't yet been back to the studio to work on the new version. In an Aug.

You probably don’t need this review to tell you if you’ll enjoy Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour as a movie. You can surely already guess, based on how much you enjoyed (or think you might have enjoyed) Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour as a concert. Because this movie is exactly no more and no less than what it says on the tin: a filmed version of Swift’s record-breaking show, captured over three performances in Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium. Aside from a few onstage “bloopers” over the closing credits, there’s next to nothing in the way of supplementary material — no interviews, no behind-the-scenes footage, no commentary on what any of this means.
But what a concert it is — and what an experience it makes, even in the relatively modest confines of a movie theater.
As has been exhaustively documented over the past seven months, the Eras Tour...

“When will Taylor Swift’s film career take off?” has been a question lurking in the back of a lot of people’s minds ever since she started getting her feet wet with bit parts in “The Giver” and “Valentine’s Day” … and then further limited herself to keeping her toes damp with “Cats” and “Amsterdam” cameos. But do we finally have an answer to that question now, or what? Nobody should suppose that “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” doesn’t count as establishing her as a movie star, just because it’s a straightforward rendering of an ongoing concert tour that’s soon to become the most successful in history. It’s 2 hours and 45 minutes of nearly nonstop acting, writ large for the back row of SoFi Stadium and, now, Imax and Dolby. What she might do with lengthy dialogue passages someday remains to be seen, but she’s...

Nicole Kidman tells AMC audiences before every showing about “sound I can feel” and how “heartbreak feels good in a place like this.” She could just as easily have been talking about watching “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour.” The near three-hour presentation of Swift’s final U.S. tour dates, filmed in Los Angeles at Sofi Stadium, is a bombastic celebration of not only Swift’s musical catalog, but friendship, joy and color that benefits from being on the biggest screen possible.
Whether you were at the concert or seeing it for the first time, Swift put on a show that dazzles, amazes and enchants. Swift plays nearly all the songs included in the Los Angeles shows, minus a few here and there. Hits like “Shake It Off” and “Cruel Summer” are present and accounted for, but it’s wonderful to get to see how Swift plays with her audience...

Swift’s eighth studio album, which is one of two full-lengths she dropped in 2020, takes the Number One spot on Rolling Stone‘s Year-End Top 200 Albums Chart. In 2020, Folklore pulled in close to 2.3 million album-equivalent units.
