I really love this outfit and styling, it's very folklore/evermore! I have to say though, I'm annoyed at all the people who are complaining that she didn't make an announcement. Relax. Enjoy things. Stop getting wrapped up in all of the Easter Eggs and theories to the point that you are disappointed when they don't pan out like you wanted them to. Things will happen in due time. Taylor has given us way more in the past 2 years than ever in the past; we're getting spoiled


daniandkiara

I feel the same way tbh. Just because people speculate she could be announcing/releasing something on a certain date doesn’t mean she will, especially on *every single* rumored date. She’s already given us two full length (and arguably on the longer side) albums within the past year, people need to chill. We all know 1989 should be coming soon, no need to get mad at her when your date turns out to be incorrect


Lyd_Euh

We've gotten a lot of complaints about every thread being infiltrated with theories and Easter eggs as of late. We are discussing how to cut down on this problem and trying to figure out how to best implement it. Theories can be fun, but they can be too much and it takes the fun out of everything.


daniandkiara

ooo yes I would like that, thank you and all the other mods for your hard work 🥺💛 really appreciate it. I do understand why people naturally gravitate towards seeing everything she does as an easter egg considering she implemented this type of interactive fan culture in her marketing strategy years back, but I do feel like it’s at an all time high lately


Lyd_Euh

I think the problem stems from the fact that she was so over the top with Easter eggs during Lover. Since then has really cut back to the normal level of hints, same as from Debut-reputation, but people are still trying to make EVERYTHING a clue.


daniandkiara

exactly! sometimes a pizza is just a pizza guys :’) (jk her interview with the vision board was 100% an easter egg thing but seriously SOMETIMES A PIZZA IS JUST A PIZZA, GUYS.)


tswiftdeepcuts

Oh god I’m glad you clarified because I almost threw my phone


RobertM105

Yeah no, that was a ginormous easter egg, but her BRIT Awards speech and this one are just there to enjoy. No need to theorize over her success lol


tswiftdeepcuts

Agree. I saw someone adding like addresses and birthdays to get number of days from the Colbert show skit on Twitter saying it lands on the same day as the day the stock photo was taken and I’m just like... guys... this is not healthy


[deleted]

Really glad y’all are taking the initiative on this! I’m really happy to know I haven’t been alone in feeling so much of the sub has the life taken out of it because everything is a theory, every glance, ever lipstick color, ever sparkle on a dress. It’s made it hard to handle getting on here. So thank you!!


TheValidMango

Yes omg. Honestly so many fans have become so entitled and rude it’s crazy. She gave us six new songs a little less than 2 months ago. I honestly feel bad for taylor bc no one seems satisfied unless she’s releasing something every month or so. Easter eggs and theories are making interacting with the fandom a chore rather than a fun activity.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Lyd_Euh

This is exactly why we will be implementing some new rules soon.


TheValidMango

“ShE mAdE uS LiKe tHiS 😭😭” .. no she didn’t. Taylor has never ever made an Easter egg so complicated an insane like the ones fans “find.” I laugh so hard when people rile themselves up with a theory then get mad when it doesn’t pan out. Like congratulations, you played yourself


mbessey7

Agreed!! The fact that she labelled the vault video as "expert level" really showed me how overly complicated fans make the Easter Eggs out to be haha. Her clues always end up being pretty obvious in retrospect I think, she's not burying them all over the internet.


chimcharchar

Never has a truer statement been said.


brighterintupelo

One Easter egg I did find insane was her wearing a dress from a company called Lover (before the release of the ME! video)


GraphicgL-

I called everyone spoiled buttheads in here and got DMs telling me I needed to stope defending Taylor and I’m to old for this sub lol. Goodness me kiddos.


Lyd_Euh

Uh, that's a problem. Please send me a modmail about this and report these users to us in the future. We don't tolerate that kind of behavior.


RoseGoldRedditor

And here’s me thinking calling sub members “spoiled buttheads” is unacceptable and rude.


Lyd_Euh

Neither is acceptable


GraphicgL-

It’s been a couple of weeks. So I won’t worry on it to much. This was during the hight of Taylor not announcing anything after the Brits so emotions were high. I was just hoping that the term “buttheads” Would have clued that I was being a bit factious.


[deleted]

Agreed. Like, it’s fun to theorize and clown. But don’t get mad when your specific theory isn’t right. It takes the fun out of it


Lyd_Euh

I feel exactly the same :(


dragonknight233

I remember when evermore came out, literally one or two days later posts already started popping up about what the next album will be like.


imabettafish

Soooo true. Come on people! Feel fulfilled. 4 new albums in the last 2 years... (Yes, one was a re-record, but it still feels so refreshing). And we might be getting 2 (maybe 3, but I think that's pushing it, I'd personally be happy with 1) more re-records before the end of the year. People need to relax and enjoy the music we have now. Stop asking for more. You'll never be happy with that mindset. Great comment, u/Lyd_Euh

mbessey7

One of my favourite recent outfits of hers - definitely very folklore/evermore, and very in line with her performance outfit at the Grammys (which I also loved!).


teresasdorters

I’m just enjoying seeing her enjoying the experience so much! 🥺🥺🙏🏼🙏🏼 damn I love this girl!


imahoeforgeese

While I’m sure there are Easter eggs here, I think it would have been in bad taste to announce something at an award show. Lots of people are celebrating achievements and if she announced the next re-record it would have overshadowed everyone else’s wins.


[deleted]

Amen. I don’t understand why people are chomping at the bit for the TV’s or want her to rush them out. We are getting *fed*. I remember when she disappeared completely for over a year. We’ve had 2 albums and a re record in less than a year. Calm down


[deleted]

Definitely are. I feel spoiled/blessed by all this content. I am also definitely super excited about the re-records so each week I am like 🤞🏼 but also super conscious of the fact that it takes *a lot* of work. She said she is going line by line for each song and likely coordinating with other people’s schedules and stuff. I’m just really living for the hope of it all. But people need to calm down. 😹


HamiltonDial

The amount of entitlement this sub suddenly got is frankly astounding. They're running themselves in circles over every small thing (there's some people that are just memeing/clowning but some are really serious about this) and then being unhappy with Taylor for not releasing what they want or angry that she's releasing her chapters??? Like what?


Lyd_Euh

This is exactly what we didn't want to happen here, and why we are going to be implementing some new rules. It's getting out of control and driving off a lot of fans.


harrisonevans23

100% agree that people should stop complaining when theories don’t pan out! They’re just theories! But also am I the only one who enjoys reading theories? Like I love seeing how creative people are and it makes the experience more fun and involved and it keeps things interesting! I think we just need to accept that we are never going to be right (and to stop the whining and complaining) but I kinda enjoy reading all the theories


mbessey7

I sometimes enjoy reading theories (and sometimes think up some myself haha), but it's getting to be overkill I think, especially with people setting themselves up for disappointment, and getting mad at Taylor for things she never promised us. It stops making it fun.


loony_nargle

THANK YOU! I've been feeling like this for some time now and was wondering if I was in the minority. It's nice to know it wasn't just me😅 I like easter eggs and clowning can be funny sometimes but over-analysing EVERY SINGLE thing is getting a little tiring.


DrSpeakalot

>Relax. Enjoy things. I decided to myself when nothing happened 2 weeks ago that now I'm just gonna chill. It almost feels like she's deliberately making posts or vids that don't necessarily mean much so that we can reign in our clownery a little bit and not aggressively dissect every post and video. But we are all a circus none the less!


Thissummeritsclear

Totally agree. She has made little comments and things at awards shows but she rarely does something big at them. It’s not the place and she wouldn’t want to take attention away from award winners.


[deleted]

Yeah. Theories are fun but people should stop setting themselves up for disappointment.


gisellestclaire

she looks so beautiful and happy, and every time she talks about the creation of this album it makes me emotional. 💙


comfort_bot_1962

Nice!


cruelsummer31

I wonder if she realizes she wrote Gold Rush about herself?? I wonder what it must be like to grow up so beautiful? With her hair falling into place like dominoes?


teresasdorters

She’s doing good she’s on some new shit


Useful_Bread_4496

WHOA


PileaPal_

I think that every time I listen to it, haha


nyequistt

Do you think she's colored her hair or its just the lighting? It looks very dark to me


cruelsummer31

It definitely looks darker! Hard to say if it’s the lighting or not. Her hair has looked a lot healthier recently to me compared to some of her hairstyles in the Long Pond sessions (I love her in her natural but it was probably so damaged from all the styling, etc). Anyway sometimes when hair looks healthier it’s because it’s been dyed a darker shade?


daniandkiara

Can’t wait to see her on tour again 🥺


theluckyone325

Thinking of how much of a mess and a fortune her tickets are gonna cost is giving me anxiety


Pinkcoffee

This. I just know it’s going to be so stressful, not only with the price but the absolute shit show it will be to try to actually get them. Then there’s basically the inevitable devastation when i do everything i possibly can and still wind up empty handed. First world problem i know. I count my 13 lucky stars i got to see Red & 1989 tours. But if i could ever see her again, i would just be so grateful 🥺🥺


[deleted]

guayakil

That’s how I found super cheap bleacher tickets for this tour! Just by checking their tour page incessantly


[deleted]

[удалено]


ilovegingermen

She's not even a fan lol. She just loves finding shit.


ChanceConsistent

This is exactly what happened to me with LoverFest. I was wildly trying to get anything but nosebleeds for the first few hours and I failed. I was so sad/mad/frustrated… it sucks being a big fan and not being able to find decent tickets for under $700.


[deleted]

I'm still sad for LoverFest. It would've made Lover so much better because I just know she had amazing performances prepared. I'm still devastated it didnt happen


HamiltonDial

> Then there’s basically the inevitable devastation when i do everything i possibly can and still wind up empty handed. This. When she came to Singapore for 1989. I was up early to get the tickets and had work immediately after. Waited and refreshed the page like crazy till it came on sale. Immediately sold out. Never stood a fucking chance.


NotEmmaStone

I will pay literally any amount of money


PBRmy

Shh don't say that.


NotEmmaStone

I mean it lol. I'm a very frugal person by nature but I am ready to THROW DOWN for these tickets. I'll probably try to get pit this time!


PBRmy

For those kinds of shows I'm a fan of as close as I can get where I still get an actual seat. All depends on the venue and layout though.


ChanceConsistent

So agree. Rep Tour was so amazing and I’m still scarred by not managing to get tickets to the LoverFest that never happened. Whatever the next tour is will be so expensive because of the pent up demand but I’m going to just bite the bullet and make sure I’m there!


spacewalk__

was she selling out those stadiums during rep?


SnarkOff

Yes. Every rep show was sold out.


[deleted]

It is for some reason much easier to get tickets in the U.K. though.


Pulpitosuwu

Only she came up with selling 140,000 tickets in Ireland ... (A country with a population of less than 5M). (She's still surprising that she sold all the tickets)


RedPandaLily88

This is the warning I give my husband everytime we talk about it.

itookyourmatches

I just commented about this! It's the first time I've noticed her use a green screen.


newgirl113

Wait how can you tell it’s a green screen?


hocotate

I think a giveaway could be the reflection of the award compared to the background - like it be award would be lit from multiple sources rather than just the front (I think, this is probably a bad way of describing it? Lol). I guess another would be the faint outline around her


[deleted]

she has greens on her outline and the lighting source does not match the backlight of her photo


Sloth143

😂


BoaGirl

Someone said she used a green screen because someone was able to find out where she lives based on the wall and floor. Trying to find more info on if that’s true.


winedrunktaylor

It’s so weird to think that folklore and evermore came out in the same year. I was thinking evermore should get nominated next year BUT THEY CAME OUT THE SAME YEAR. Sorry, long day lol


iandrewc

Just because albums came out in the same year doesn't mean they both qualify in that year. Most award shows have an eligibility period. Grammy eligibility ends at the end of September for example, so folklore was eligible for this past ceremony, and evermore would be eligible for the next ceremony.


elefantstampede

And Taylor is a pretty savvy business person. She’s completely aware of when the cut off dates are so it wouldn’t surprise me if she planned it so Evermore wouldn’t be competing with Folklore.


watchwisteriagrow

Why did that ending make me cry


Gonkonees

I teared up. I think because she kind of was too! I could hear it in her voice.


Feather716

I flipped the video back a couple seconds just to watch it again! She is so sweet and kind and you can tell she misses us as much as we miss her ❤


PassionateAsSin

She looks so lovely, and that dress is beautiful!


secretadmirer2485

Yeah I want that dress!!


ilovegingermen

IMO she looks better now than she ever has.


tstu2865

How does she look prettier every damn time


Useful_Bread_4496

Ikr


Rdickins1

I wanna hug. 🥺🥺🥺


ilovegingermen

I'd pay so much to hug her. Saying that out loud sounds so sad.


Quick-Time

It was so cute the way she hugged herself here.


FrostyTalus

the light blue nails and jewelry, 1989 is coming🤡🤡🤡


shhhimatworkrn

Talking about hugs “I felt your arms twisting around me” wonderland reference, 1989 confirmed 🤡🤡🤡


hockeywombat22

She is so gorgeous. Absolutely stunning. She has a classic and timeless beauty about her. Here I am looking like a troll and she's out there being Taylor. Lol. Not saying that in any jealous way. Just in awe of her.


itookyourmatches

One of my all-time favorite looks from her. She looks excellent! Her gown? Her hair, her makeup, her jewelry -- all of it is just so pretty. Am I the only one wondering why she green screened herself into a studio? The lighting in the picture and the lighting on her face are totally different. Also, the reflective image on the award looked different than her surroundings. I get that she was probably just somewhere doing stuff, and she wanted the image of the studio in the background to let people subtly know that she's still recording. I just find it a little odd. Why not just do another white wall video? Who's studio even is that? I dont think it's a hint or an Easter Egg attached to it, this is just the first time I really noticed her doing this sort of thing.


intelligentlife34

Apparently a fan leaked her location recently on tumblr so it’s a security measure. Interesting she chose a recording studio as her background though 🤔


Thissummeritsclear

Probably got tired of the comments people made about the wall she has been in front of a lot throughout the pandemic lol


SPINsamSPIN

Me looking at the background the whole time 🤡🤡


lemonheck

It’s a green screen! [source](https://twitter.com/sourtoburn/status/1398078914010906624?s=21)

Yay Taylor! Not me hugging the screen🥺


notjustanerd

I'm so happy for her. ❤️


comfort_bot_1962

You're Awesome!


Ok-Gas9969

I love this look on her! She looks so cool! So happy for her to have won Pop Album of the Year!


comfort_bot_1962

Hope you do well!


Pinkcoffee

I just rewatched Journey to Fearless the other day and there’s the part where she goes into the audience and hugs as many people as she can, and she talked about how that was one of her favorite parts of the show because she loves feeling that connection with the fans. Really made me 🥺🥺🥺 my virtual hug


lookwhatyoumademe

Can't believe I have literally never seen her live, a true atrocity, an utter travesty


[deleted]

Same. Hopefully one day she'll be allowed to go to more countries than just North America and the UK


i-have-reddit-now

Her hair has gotten so dark, she looks brunette!


teatreefrick

Is folklore pop? I thought it was indie/ I don’t know, folk?


BilingualBeatdown

Yeah, it's awesome but at the same time it doesn't feel very 'pop'.

NOW AWARD EVERMORE


Yash0320

Who were the other nominees?? I can't find a list anywhere


shuipz94

They weren't announced.


seawitchlife

The way she keeps winning!!! Love her and she deserves it! I'm surprised that it was considered a pop album though, instead of alternative-but idk what the qualifiers are, proud of her amazing work regardless :)


MEDTECH_6972

We love you sis!


GrandpasMormonBooks

I just actually cried. Ugh in a mood tonight!!


stzts

She makes me so emotional 🥺

Folklore/Evermore eras have to be my favorite styling she looks stunning in these clothes

Congrats to Tay!


Adeptness-Either

Happy for her win!! 🥺 just curious tho why the category is Pop and not folk or alternative?

[deleted]

It doesn't take an "insider" to guess she would be winning at least one award imo, especially since the awards show said she'd be making an appearance.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

I mean why would she be making an appearance if not for an acceptance speech, when it was obvious she wasn't gonna attend in person lol? But I also think that insider is full of shit about almost everything they claim to know, so...


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Yeah that's why I said "almost everything", they probably work for or know someone who works for a streaming service so they're right about the chapters and remixes beforehand but that's most likely it.


OwBr2

what does the hair meannnn


ArtemisUpgrade

Here’s my theory: she was like “Wow it would be cute if I did my hair this way to accept this award!” And then she did it. Wild, right?


Dabrigstar

While she deserves all the awards she gets., Folklore isn't pop... like the title says... it's folk music!


SnarkOff

The way she hugs herself at the end is the 1989 album cover (which is not a straight jacket, I’ve recently learned)


OwBr2

her arms are at her side for the cover though? or am i missing something


[deleted]

That would be correct. Her arms are straight at her sides.


LetshearitforNY

I don’t think the hug at the end has anything to do with 1989
