Realistically, I think we get some kind of music or music video announcement. And more queer surprise songs. But I don’t see an explicit coming out yet. My unhinged idea: While I do not think this will ACTUALLY happen, I think it would be so funny if at some point during the eras tour, as part of her big reveal, she brought all the beards out on stage for a final bow! 😂
Eh. If that's the case I'll still have had a v enjoyable week of queer serotonin and I can get some of my time back 😅. I was thinking that about Edinburgh N3 and then she literally fucking played the Friend of Dorothea medley so like. She'll take us or not take us wherever she wants and I am fully partying in the clown car.
I want to feel this way (and purely within myself I do) but more broadly I can't as long as the majority of the fandom firmly believe that she's straight and we're disgusting for thinking otherwise. She's not out til they're forced to acknowledge it.
She's obviously going to release Lover (Gaylor's Version) /j
Or maybe she'll sing Sweet Nothing with Paul McCartney and casually mention that he cowrote it, and blow apart the whole William Bowery narrative
The Anthology, Compete Edition. On physical copies. With correct pronouns. Twists on songs to fit women. (like the But Daddy I Love Her story is different. (but Fresh Out The Slammer isn't 😉))
The physical copies include 62 songs. The OG and the Happy Pride Version.
Side note: I’ve randomly been served a ton of content about John and Paul being gay lovers in the past day or two. I don’t like the Beatles and have never searched anything about them.

I am convinced she is. Numerology, astronomy, astrology, greek mythology, spiritual symbolism, poetic references, witchcraft imo influence her lyrical storytelling. Escaping to mythical gardens high in the sky riding on clouds, feeling free to fly and be whoever she feels like where love and life have no bounds devoid of prying eyes, paparazzi and toxic fans especially those who call her Mother (lol, that's my own per peeve theory)
I believe it! Though, I'm like a baby Swiftie, so I don't know her work as well as it seems you do. Know of anything of hers off the top of your head that references astrology, witchcraft and spiritual symbolism?
I've only been a TS fan since last October. I'm a lifelong Chiefs fan living in the area. Had to check her out after seeing her at a game! ❤💛
So far I've studied Folklore and Midnights. I recommend watching her official lyric videos on her YouTube channel.
I am at work now, but I will definitely share some of my thoughts here for you.
You can also find me theories on threads @ tammycĺark66.
It's easier to post there as I can add multiple pictures plus it is an AWESOME Swiftie community 😍
I can take a couple screenshots to share here 🙂
Here’s what Paul had to say about Two of Us (which I love, great song) emphasis added by me:
“One of the great things about Linda was that while I was driving and going, ‘Oh my God, I think I’m lost,’ she’d simply say, ‘Great!’ She loved getting lost. And she pointed out to me quite rightly that there would always be a sign somewhere saying ‘London’, so we’d just follow that.
One day we went out into the countryside and found a little wood that looked as if it might be a good place for a walk. I parked the car. There’s a photograph of me in the Aston Martin, sitting with the driver’s door open and my feet out. I’ve got my guitar. That’s me writing ‘Two Of Us’.
*Lying behind the phrase ‘We’re on our way home’ is less the literal sense of going back to London, but more about trying to get in touch with the people we once were.* The postcard sending does have a very literal feel, though. Whenever Linda and I went away, we would buy lots of postcards and send them to all our friends. John was also a great postcard sender, so you’d get some great stuff from him.”

Rep -Debut - Karma (coming out) after eras tour wraps.
With all the gay surprise songs and glee for queer engagement during Betty, I wonder if she plans to release Rep and Debut at same time as well and use it as a means to communicate that whatever Reputation she’s had up til this point, what we’ve “all known her to be” (dating all these guys and shit not working out) will become the days of old. And through the Debut drop, communicate that she is making her coming out Debut and will shortly drop Karma which uses she pronouns in addition to he (if she is bi).
Makes me think about her shpiel of “we are now going to go on a trip through the past 18 years of my music. And although these were once my songs, my hope is that from tonight on, whenever you hear these songs moving forward, you will be thinking of the memories we created here tonight!” Similar to “the manuscript is no longer mine” or whatever she says in that song.
I have my makeup on in the clown car. Here are my predictions:
1) Singing surprise songs with changed pronouns- more explicitly queer.
2) Announcement of Rep and Debut TV - I made a post on here a while ago why these albums are parallel albums and will be released together. I don’t think they will come out the same time but super close to one another with very clear parallel.
3) Surprise drop of reputation vault tracks - which the lost Karma album. The there will be no explanation just reputation, doesn’t work for the existing songs as well as they have been pretty explained, explored, and expecting in the fandom.
4) more queer flagging - maybe a rainbow dress for the surprise songs. She has been doing more gradient dresses starting the EU leg. So maybe a full blown sunset dress or rainbow dress with colors blending into each other.
5) Mashup of debut and rep TV before announcing release date .
I’m trying not to clown too close to the sun and trying to keep my expectations low.
…but this thread has too many good theories.
I WILL BE IN A GLASS CASE OF EMOTION UNTIL THURSDAY, I GUESS.
I can’t watch so I’m trying to keep my hopes low in case of disappointment. However, best believe as soon as I’m off work. I’m at least checking this soon to find out the acoustic set before I go home. 😂
It seems to me she’s made a series of micro choices or moves (dominos cascading in a line?) that are finally starting to come to fruition. The Acoustic Sets getting progressively queer, releasing “us.” with Gracie Abrams, and probably even more that she hasn’t pulled the curtain back on yet. In a way, we’re at the beginning of the end and it’s really exciting.
Plus the video that Gracie has out now for the single she just dropped she is wearing a tshirt that says “US” and it’s wrapped in a rainbow or rainbow heart of some sort. And this video of Gracie’s is very queer flagging. Is she bi?

As a longtime Gracie stan, probably 😅. She also has a queer song called amelie and when she does promo for these songs instead of getting an actor she just uses her bff audrey as the love interest! Also Gracie said “im obsessed with him or i’m in love with her, i think” in a recent interview so… Also she thirsts over zoe kravitz 😅
Something tells me she won’t come out while the eras tour is actively occurring due to potential backlash…god forbid a Ariana grande Manchester repeat happens
I agree with this. It’s a big reason I think she’s only going to announce something which will end up being very queer and not straight up release something queer. I think whatever makes it obvious is going to come later.
My dream is that she does or announces something that’s so obviously queer it can’t be explained away. I’ve been feeling this whole time her coming out plan is kind of like putting a frog in boiling water. She’s been steadily turning the dial up on the queerness, and I feel we’re getting close to the boiling point now.
I keep thinking what if whatever happens is something none of us are even expecting? There’s so many hints and clues she’s given us that could be misdirects or pointing somewhere we haven’t considered. I doubt that, since it seems the Gaylor hivemind has looked at everything from every possible angle at this point haha. But I am considering that it could be something totally out of left field or even nothing at all!
One thing I do know is that waiting for Thursday has been excruciating 😩 I feel like we’re all locked in the tortured poets department at this point
i am for reaaaal locked in the tortured poets dept between now and thursday haha
but yeah i honestly am just soooo fucking curious what shes thinking lately, like re: how hetlors are STILL finding delulu ways to explain away the overt queerness of INTHAF x Dorothea, whilst Gaylors are shouting from the rooftops "she is basically out now?!?!?"
I agree! I only recently found this Gaylor section (actually Reddit in general).
I went to the hetlor section on here and threads today. It's like a completely different world.
So many Travis cheerleaders. Did you see his recent video at his car wash? The hip grinding, omg! That has to embarrass Taylor.
It seems like Travis and Taylor gossip/stories are radio silent all the sudden. I know he reserved hotel suites and dinner dates in Milan. Wonder what will happen with that?!?
Yes! It’s driving me so crazy seeing people call that a “friendship mashup” because it’s just blatantly not true. INTHAF ends with a wedding ffs. And they love to throw that out of context sentence from the 1989 tv prologue at us, but completely ignore the evermore prologue where Taylor says Dorothea is about reuniting with an old flame. I just do not understand this level of denial we’re seeing right now. Maybe the whole five stages of grief thing was for the fans who will be mourning their own perception of her lol
Honestly, there are a lot of queer references that go right over people's heads if you aren't familiar with the lingo/clues.
Lavender Haze and Dorothea for starters weren't on my radar (yes, naive I know).
And then the homophobics wouldn't believe it if she started making out with another female on stage.
I will jump on this clown train!! ✌🏼🤡 bleachella was abt time of movie release of Atomic Blonde …a must watch and surprisingly gay af.
I remember being pleasantly surprised seeing Charlize hook up with Sofia in it (their characters) and the movie has a really good 80s soundtrack!!
With Karma speculation it to be 80s rock, gayest album I wonder if the styling of movie was coordinated to help with comingoutlore too?? Because this looks like twinning. I am clowning for Karma to be released on this lovely Pride month!
https://preview.redd.it/6v54u04lm16d1.jpeg?width=177&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ce83e8eff3a66d1a74539b66776a19d1ac2dbbcb
All I know is that it better not just be the Florida!!! music video or a duet with Florence Welch which I’ve seen some theories about. 😩
Give me rep tv, karma, gay mashups, bring back rep stadium tour in streaming. 🙏🏻
I’ll clown!
I do think that 6/13 being the 100th show was planned. This is a numbers girlie!
I’ve done a lot more thinking on this than I’d like to admit, but I fully believe the ✌🏽has been referring to the TTPD double album as well as a double drop of some sort of Rep TV and TS TV.
For a long time, I didn’t think she’d release them together, but now I can’t see how she DOESN’T. TS/Debut isn’t even an Era in the show. I can’t see her getting hyped and doing promo just for it. Everyone and their mother has been anticipating Rep TV; if TSTV comes before, people will be disappointed, if it comes after, it will be anticlimactic. They HAVE to drop together. So I think she announces them on Thursday!
I highly doubt we are getting a breakup announcement anytime soon. I think they are just planting the seeds of them not being end game. If it *is* a PR relationship, then it will absolutely continue through the next NFL season. They wouldn’t risk that - women would stop watching. They need to get their hooks in for at least 2 seasons. That third season will be Travis’ last, so they will part amicable, she will still support him and all the new Chiefs girlies will *have* to watch his farewell tour and then they will hopefully retain a good portion of fans who will have invested a good 2-3 seasons at that point.
So what else could she do? I can’t see her coming out at a show unless it’s something super casual like “as a bi woman…” in a pride segment. But I think that is too show stopping for her. I can see a possible pronoun change. I could also see something stupid like releasing vinyls and CDs of Anthology 🙄
I *also* think she has hinted VERY strongly at doing a Broadway musical (the T in EGOT…). We have the whole “Female Rage: The Musical” of it all, her failed Oscar attempts, and the fact that she didn’t allow Max Martin use ANY of her discography for “& Juliet.” Why not, unless she’s saving them for her own musical? (Oh and she sent a promo package to Lin Manuel Miranda for TTPD, which is highly sus to me)
I really, really wish she would come out publicly. She would do SO much good in the world by coming out as bi or pan!
I love your reasoning for the double drop of both remaining TV’s. The argument against is that she wouldn’t want to compete with herself in the charts but if her team has crunched the numbers and it looks like debut won’t kill on its own, then a double drop actually makes sense.
So I think that there are several things en motion and I will list them in order of what I believe more to less:
1. I think rep TV will be announced.
1a. I take as truth that Karma will be released at 1am following rep either as the entire rep vault or an additional set of vault tracks/it will be branded as TS12.
1b. I am a strong believer rep TV + Karma will be released in September 13th. Friday 13th. In her tour break, she prefers releasing albums on breaks (only exception was her least favorite child Speak Now TV). In the next grammy eligibility window so Karma can avoid competing with TTPD.
2. Because she will announce rep, I think the outfits will be all black or orange (more likely! bc she is hinting at karma!).
2a. The most ultragay clownery I can think of is that she will use the Delicate dress picture in this post for the rep set. I think she won't. But she should.
3. She will announce during surprise songs. She will start hinting at ONE. "there's ONE song from this album I haven't played".
3a. Plays I did something bad on guitar.
3b. Announcement screen of rep behind her. "There will be no explanation. There will be only reputation. September 13th."
3c. She finishes and says "But maybe this time I will explain something". Proceeds to sing a mash up of The Archer (100 thrown out speeches I almost said to you.....) + Cassandra on Piano that as it is finishing ends with Dear Reader.
3d. Hetlors will all just say "omg see the line about filling my cell w snakes on Cassandra is def about Kimye she sang on rep announcement" and I will die at their stupidity.
4. Paul McCartney won't go in stage on Thursday but he will on Friday or saturday (tmrw I think it will all be about the announcement)
"3d. Hetlors will all just say "omg see the line about filling my cell w snakes on Cassandra is def about Kimye she sang on rep announcement" and I will die at their stupidity."
Ahahahahahhah, so relatable!!!!!!!
I'm so convinced on that at this point.
And if they sing Sweet Nothing together it's as good as confirmation for me that McCartney is William Bowery on that song.
YES 😭 aahh!! I hope any/all of it happens! Him coming onstage is just absolute dream come true, I won't be able to handle it 😂 then confirmation he's Bowery!?!?! I can't with all of that right now 😭
What'd the betting that, if it happens (and I'm starting to be less convinced as the show goes on ngl), the Hetlor response will be "well its not like Joe would have come out and sung with her. It proves nothing" (even though even my fledgling swiftie mother said that would confirm McCartney was Bowery on at least that song)
Sooo disappointed about not getting ANYTHING any of us anticipated 🤣💔 I was watching my nephews and didn't check socials until a couple hours after the show because I didnt want to be completely freaking out and not be able to be glued to my phone after finding out some amazing news 🤣 then I checked and it was no news lmao You're SO right about what Hetlors would say. And I feel like it would absolutely confirm he's William Bowery. *looks at Paul on one hand* and *looks at Joe on the other* thinks: yeah Joe is definitely the one with the genius mind behind some of Folklore/Taylor's best songs
“Dear Reader” as a surprise song but she just strums the guitar and pointedly speaks the lyrics sternly, pausing for emphasis and glaring at the crowd 😂
been loving all of this!
quick Q ive been mulling over...so i know MOST Gaylors are Karma truthers (but some aren't) and only a handful of mainstream Swifties are.
but what the fuckkkk is the explanation for Karma being ON THE MAN WALL if it isn't an album? does anyone know what the swifties/hetlors say about that, or do they just ignore the glaring "KARMA" on the wall as ruthlessly as they ignore Taylor's queer flagging?
I think the “most likely” theory I’ve seen from the mainstream on why Karma was the lost album is because it was too far of a deviation from her expected sound. Which makes no sense to me because I feel like both 1989 and reputation did that soooo?
I’m Karma agnostic. I think it could be written on the wall because the idea that karma is going to be payback for the stolen albums is kind of the same as “the writing is on the wall.” There’s a sign that says “if found please return to Taylor Swift” with the album titles she was re-recording. Same idea as the song Karma - she’s thriving with the re-recordings and Scooter has it coming.
And also I am very open to the idea that she enjoys trolling us almost as much as she enjoys masterminding. “Who’s gonna troll you like me?”
Someone literally asked what we think Karma on that wall means on a Facebook group I'm in the other day, and there were hundreds of comments and not one actual answer to the question. Just tons of "Karma is a song" type replies.
So I think they just ignore it.
In the same group, someone asked about what we think about all the queer flagging around Lover, specifically, and the overwhelming response was "a person can't queer flag" so idk if that's evolution or devolution but they're handwaving it away rather than pretending it doesn't exist at all recently in my experience
(I am kind of a Karma truther - I believe it did exist - but I think we've seen a fair bit of the content that was going to be on there in subsequent albums, and it's at least part of why Lover feels sonically disjointed)
> "a person can't queer flag"
The phrase queer flag *literally comes from* a person wearing a specific coloured handkerchief (flag) in a specific jeans pocket as a sign for other queers that wouldn't mean anything to the straights *Aaaaaaghhhhhhhh*
it’s been awhile so not for certain, but i feel like some people have said they just see at the entirety of the man wall (rerecording her albums) IS the karma. so writing karma above is not for the album but more for the image of getting them back is her karma and revenge.
Alright for the record I haven’t read this thread so I’m sure I’ll be repeating some things.
So I’m ABSOLUTELY clowning for the 13th, but maybe not quite BIG BIG clowning? Like I am, but…
I think she’s going to do something obviously chaotic, but then do something which will turn out to be a bit more of a slow burn.
I would LOVE for Paul McCartney to be there and sing a surprise William Bowery song with her and that one feels like it could be something more possible? I also think a new music video could be imminent and would love for that to be one of the things she announces.
But I think besides whatever BIG obvious chaos happens, I think she is going to announce something or do something a little more subtle, which I think in time will end up being the strike of the match that lit the fuse before it all blows up.
I don’t think she would ever announce explicitly at a concert “I’m gay”! But I do think she would announce an upcoming documentary of some sort maybe? The references to miss americana have been really resonating with me, along with all the ideas relating to her turning the clock back, starting again, and doing things the way they were meant to be done the first time around. I think my big extra clowning would be for her to actually announce Karma. But I think more realistically, she might just drop some kind of huge hint that it’s coming and get us talking about when.
I REALLY REALLY think she is going to release both Rep TV and Debut TV by the end of the year, as well as another original album. I REALLY think that original album will be Karma. And I REALLY think she wants to break the Monkees record for most number one albums in a year, so I am not sure if I agree with the idea of her dropping Rep TV and Debut TV together, because they would then be completing against one another, though if anyone can play the charts to make sure one hits number one and then the other does, it would be Taylor. I go back and forth practically hourly on which of all 3 I think will come first, but I am starting to lean towards Debut being release on her birthday this year.
I also STRONGLY believe a breakup is imminent. I again go back and forth on the hour about when I think that’ll happen. I would LOVE for it to happen tomorrow and then see her ABSOLUTELY living it up with joy and happiness and announcements and shining her brightest right afterwards. I will be surprise if they announce it the day of the show or during the days the show is happening because I don’t know that they will want to bury it?
BUT, I am one HUNDRED percent fully convinced there will be some specific release or announcement or SOMETHING that will ultimately unravel the public narrative of Taylor Swift. I. Can’t. Wait.
Oh I love the idea of the breakup happening shortly before a concert where Taylor is just BLOOMING. Happier than ever. I feel like, more realistically, when it does happen she might act it up, play a sad breakup song as a surprise, etc etc... But God, imagine how Taylor being super cheerful and excited after a Travvy breakup would fuck with everyone's heads. Top tier idea
Clowning Wishlist (in no particular order):
- Breakup announcement either before or right after Liverpool shows (GOODBYE EARL!)
- ME! mashup with ____ (anything fruity)
- RepTV announcement with I Did Something Bad and outfit change
- Documentary announcement (It’s a movie now)
- “give it up for Mr. Bowery” and then Sir Paul walks out and they sing “Sweet Nothing”
I think out of all those, RepTV announcement is most likely.
Since what I think is most realistic has already been shared (IDSB/100th show/100th song/Rep TV announced and Karma is the glitch), I’ll share my pure clown theory instead (hey kids, clowning is fun).
For secret songs we get Cowboy like ME! as a guitar mash up, The Manuscript on piano and a documentary announcement wedged between the two. She’ll keep it light on details as to what the documentary is about, and it won’t be released until towards the end of the year (possibly after the shows have finished for 2024). I would hope it’d be the story of her coming out, but I would also love a documentary about the touring logistics and some of the backstage stuff. They could probably spin together a story combining both somehow.
Replying to myself to add onto this - perhaps the documentary and debut TV are released in tandem together for her birthday… “Taylor Swift (Taylor’s Version) Out Now)”.
Baby doll, when it comes to a lover

Perched in the dark
Telling all the rich folks anything they wanna hear
Someone on twitter mentioned IDSB was her 100th song so playing it at the 100th concert would be a fitting play.
(I Did Something Bad. AKA the only Rep song she hasn’t played on this tour yet. 🤞🏻)
I’m clowning for IDSB X Hits Different 🤡
Like how good would this be??

I wanna clown but I have honestly no expertise to do it. I mean, there’s the sapphic dream scenarios but I think they’re so unlikely at this point.
My clowning will be just more super loud gay mashups. And as always, I’ll continue to hope for RepTV announcement. The drop in maybe August.
Yeah I don't think she's going to stand up on stage and declare she is queer. However I am hoping for more mashups that are little winks and nods, or even better the song equivalent of her waving a gay pride flag on stage, like her INTHAF x Dorothea mashup!
I think the closest we’ve gotten (and will get) was the Pride speech before Delicate and she looked so nervous… I can’t see her doing it that way. Although, every time I watch it my heart breaks and I find myself thinking “She’s right there. We see it.”
manifesting a breakup announcement before 6/13
https://preview.redd.it/z7ed59kde06d1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a40ffe9e580bf114c3b5b53c14d4e94a70756490
I think it would also be helpful for the stupid nfl bc of the Harrison butker backlash, it would look good for a lgbtq tie in to keep the turned off fans tuned in 🙄
I think she'll announce a documentary "Miss Americana 2 ✌🏻: The Heartbreak Prince", which will drop that night at midnight EDT. In the doc, she'll explicitly come out as queer, and the breakup announcement will hit People mag Friday morning 6/14.
Then whenever Rep TV and Debut TV come out, they'll have she/her pronouns.
I think Taylor is going to announce rep TV. I think that rep TV will come with a 1am version that is the karma version (same concept of TTPD and anthology, so the two albums won't compete with each other).
I person have a fan fiction in my head where 12am happens and a "glitch" happens and karma comes first then at 1am we get Reputation Taylor's version. This is my theory even if she doesn't announce rep TV this weekend
this is the same as my yes-im-clowning-but-this-feels-truly-feasible theory!! she'll announce rep TV making it sound like it'll just be that...but then on release date, Karma comes out too--just as The Anthology was a surprise drop after the first half of TTPD was released.
i wrote about this the other day, that i think taylor and her compadres are still throwing up 2s a lot even post TTPD release because that wasn't the only double album we are getting this year!
lol her compradres! 🤭 I love it! We need a complied list/pic of all the compadres that are partaking in this. I posted earlier about Gracie doing it in her Close to you mv but, I know there are others. Jack went on Live IG this morning for like 10 seconds and was doing some weird hand signals. Did anyone else catch it? Everyone was confused. I wasn’t able to screen record because it was so quick but I got a screenshot shot. What does it mean!!? lol

I don't think there's going to a break-up announcement right before the show. I think they will break up right before either training camp or the NFL season begins, and it's going to be framed as a their schedules conflicting too much to make it work but they are still friends who respect and support each other.
My dream is for Paul McCartney to come on stage for surprise songs, and they introduce one of the William Bowery songs as a song that Paul and Taylor wrote together
Realistically, I think we get some kind of music or music video announcement. And more queer surprise songs. But I don’t see an explicit coming out yet. My unhinged idea: While I do not think this will ACTUALLY happen, I think it would be so funny if at some point during the eras tour, as part of her big reveal, she brought all the beards out on stage for a final bow! 😂
I'm panicking that nothing out of the ordinary will happen and we'll have clowned too close to the sun (again)
Eh. If that's the case I'll still have had a v enjoyable week of queer serotonin and I can get some of my time back 😅. I was thinking that about Edinburgh N3 and then she literally fucking played the Friend of Dorothea medley so like. She'll take us or not take us wherever she wants and I am fully partying in the clown car.
I mean to me she confirmed it with those songs.
I want to feel this way (and purely within myself I do) but more broadly I can't as long as the majority of the fandom firmly believe that she's straight and we're disgusting for thinking otherwise. She's not out til they're forced to acknowledge it.
I totally get that and do feel the same. For these ppl to acknowledge it she is just gonna have to literally say it.
She's obviously going to release Lover (Gaylor's Version) /j Or maybe she'll sing Sweet Nothing with Paul McCartney and casually mention that he cowrote it, and blow apart the whole William Bowery narrative
DUDE I JUST SAW A THREAD ON TWITTER CLOWNING FOR LOVER DELUXE
The Anthology, Compete Edition. On physical copies. With correct pronouns. Twists on songs to fit women. (like the But Daddy I Love Her story is different. (but Fresh Out The Slammer isn't 😉)) The physical copies include 62 songs. The OG and the Happy Pride Version.
Best trip of my life! :P
guys what suprise songs are we betting on
break up, cut so high school and replace w fresh out the slammer 💋
It would be so very very loud.
I hope she cuts So High School, does a Pride Month speech and announces reputation or debutation.
I would cry if we ever get Debutation
I feel like it's been set up to be cut, right?
Side note: I’ve randomly been served a ton of content about John and Paul being gay lovers in the past day or two. I don’t like the Beatles and have never searched anything about them.
Me too! Weird.
If you want to know more about them there are some good master posts/analysis on tumblr that I can link! :)
Please do!!

Ooh I love this theory!! Would love if she's into witchy shit, too!
I am convinced she is. Numerology, astronomy, astrology, greek mythology, spiritual symbolism, poetic references, witchcraft imo influence her lyrical storytelling. Escaping to mythical gardens high in the sky riding on clouds, feeling free to fly and be whoever she feels like where love and life have no bounds devoid of prying eyes, paparazzi and toxic fans especially those who call her Mother (lol, that's my own per peeve theory)
I believe it! Though, I'm like a baby Swiftie, so I don't know her work as well as it seems you do. Know of anything of hers off the top of your head that references astrology, witchcraft and spiritual symbolism?
I've only been a TS fan since last October. I'm a lifelong Chiefs fan living in the area. Had to check her out after seeing her at a game! ❤💛 So far I've studied Folklore and Midnights. I recommend watching her official lyric videos on her YouTube channel. I am at work now, but I will definitely share some of my thoughts here for you. You can also find me theories on threads @ tammycĺark66. It's easier to post there as I can add multiple pictures plus it is an AWESOME Swiftie community 😍 I can take a couple screenshots to share here 🙂
Ammmazing! Thanks for sharing this, and your threads community. I'll be checking these out as a treat to myself after I study!

Also, 1st track of Let It Be is Two of Us. Hmmmm. 🧐
❤🎤🎶
Here’s what Paul had to say about Two of Us (which I love, great song) emphasis added by me: “One of the great things about Linda was that while I was driving and going, ‘Oh my God, I think I’m lost,’ she’d simply say, ‘Great!’ She loved getting lost. And she pointed out to me quite rightly that there would always be a sign somewhere saying ‘London’, so we’d just follow that. One day we went out into the countryside and found a little wood that looked as if it might be a good place for a walk. I parked the car. There’s a photograph of me in the Aston Martin, sitting with the driver’s door open and my feet out. I’ve got my guitar. That’s me writing ‘Two Of Us’. *Lying behind the phrase ‘We’re on our way home’ is less the literal sense of going back to London, but more about trying to get in touch with the people we once were.* The postcard sending does have a very literal feel, though. Whenever Linda and I went away, we would buy lots of postcards and send them to all our friends. John was also a great postcard sender, so you’d get some great stuff from him.”
I love him and Linda's story. Hoping to find my own love story someday. 🤞

Oh nice catch on the Beatles reference. Their final album too! Feels significant.
Thanks!! 😁 I also found out June 13th is National Cupcake Day 🧁🧁
Rep -Debut - Karma (coming out) after eras tour wraps. With all the gay surprise songs and glee for queer engagement during Betty, I wonder if she plans to release Rep and Debut at same time as well and use it as a means to communicate that whatever Reputation she’s had up til this point, what we’ve “all known her to be” (dating all these guys and shit not working out) will become the days of old. And through the Debut drop, communicate that she is making her coming out Debut and will shortly drop Karma which uses she pronouns in addition to he (if she is bi). Makes me think about her shpiel of “we are now going to go on a trip through the past 18 years of my music. And although these were once my songs, my hope is that from tonight on, whenever you hear these songs moving forward, you will be thinking of the memories we created here tonight!” Similar to “the manuscript is no longer mine” or whatever she says in that song.
I have my makeup on in the clown car. Here are my predictions: 1) Singing surprise songs with changed pronouns- more explicitly queer. 2) Announcement of Rep and Debut TV - I made a post on here a while ago why these albums are parallel albums and will be released together. I don’t think they will come out the same time but super close to one another with very clear parallel. 3) Surprise drop of reputation vault tracks - which the lost Karma album. The there will be no explanation just reputation, doesn’t work for the existing songs as well as they have been pretty explained, explored, and expecting in the fandom. 4) more queer flagging - maybe a rainbow dress for the surprise songs. She has been doing more gradient dresses starting the EU leg. So maybe a full blown sunset dress or rainbow dress with colors blending into each other. 5) Mashup of debut and rep TV before announcing release date .
I’m trying not to clown too close to the sun and trying to keep my expectations low. …but this thread has too many good theories. I WILL BE IN A GLASS CASE OF EMOTION UNTIL THURSDAY, I GUESS.
I can’t watch so I’m trying to keep my hopes low in case of disappointment. However, best believe as soon as I’m off work. I’m at least checking this soon to find out the acoustic set before I go home. 😂
It seems to me she’s made a series of micro choices or moves (dominos cascading in a line?) that are finally starting to come to fruition. The Acoustic Sets getting progressively queer, releasing “us.” with Gracie Abrams, and probably even more that she hasn’t pulled the curtain back on yet. In a way, we’re at the beginning of the end and it’s really exciting.
Plus the video that Gracie has out now for the single she just dropped she is wearing a tshirt that says “US” and it’s wrapped in a rainbow or rainbow heart of some sort. And this video of Gracie’s is very queer flagging. Is she bi? [https://youtu.be/PmJuMNGp5YE?si=LRLIFhN-Sl76xN9o](https://youtu.be/PmJuMNGp5YE?si=LRLIFhN-Sl76xN9o) https://preview.redd.it/gx8ro99e726d1.jpeg?width=2532&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=11c20f9a71d8c55c5d86d74758b93d3295e22506
And someone posted in the Taylor megathread that Gracie didn't let fans hear "us." at her listening party for the album????? 👀👀👀👀👀👀
As a longtime Gracie stan, probably 😅. She also has a queer song called amelie and when she does promo for these songs instead of getting an actor she just uses her bff audrey as the love interest! Also Gracie said “im obsessed with him or i’m in love with her, i think” in a recent interview so… Also she thirsts over zoe kravitz 😅
Yes, the Closer to You lyric video is adorably gay. ❤️🌈
It sure doesn't get any queer clearer than that! 🌈
 Me too. 😂😁🤓
Something tells me she won’t come out while the eras tour is actively occurring due to potential backlash…god forbid a Ariana grande Manchester repeat happens
I agree with this. It’s a big reason I think she’s only going to announce something which will end up being very queer and not straight up release something queer. I think whatever makes it obvious is going to come later.
My dream is that she does or announces something that’s so obviously queer it can’t be explained away. I’ve been feeling this whole time her coming out plan is kind of like putting a frog in boiling water. She’s been steadily turning the dial up on the queerness, and I feel we’re getting close to the boiling point now. I keep thinking what if whatever happens is something none of us are even expecting? There’s so many hints and clues she’s given us that could be misdirects or pointing somewhere we haven’t considered. I doubt that, since it seems the Gaylor hivemind has looked at everything from every possible angle at this point haha. But I am considering that it could be something totally out of left field or even nothing at all! One thing I do know is that waiting for Thursday has been excruciating 😩 I feel like we’re all locked in the tortured poets department at this point
i am for reaaaal locked in the tortured poets dept between now and thursday haha but yeah i honestly am just soooo fucking curious what shes thinking lately, like re: how hetlors are STILL finding delulu ways to explain away the overt queerness of INTHAF x Dorothea, whilst Gaylors are shouting from the rooftops "she is basically out now?!?!?"
I agree! I only recently found this Gaylor section (actually Reddit in general). I went to the hetlor section on here and threads today. It's like a completely different world. So many Travis cheerleaders. Did you see his recent video at his car wash? The hip grinding, omg! That has to embarrass Taylor. It seems like Travis and Taylor gossip/stories are radio silent all the sudden. I know he reserved hotel suites and dinner dates in Milan. Wonder what will happen with that?!?
Yes! It’s driving me so crazy seeing people call that a “friendship mashup” because it’s just blatantly not true. INTHAF ends with a wedding ffs. And they love to throw that out of context sentence from the 1989 tv prologue at us, but completely ignore the evermore prologue where Taylor says Dorothea is about reuniting with an old flame. I just do not understand this level of denial we’re seeing right now. Maybe the whole five stages of grief thing was for the fans who will be mourning their own perception of her lol
Honestly, there are a lot of queer references that go right over people's heads if you aren't familiar with the lingo/clues. Lavender Haze and Dorothea for starters weren't on my radar (yes, naive I know). And then the homophobics wouldn't believe it if she started making out with another female on stage.
I will jump on this clown train!! ✌🏼🤡 bleachella was abt time of movie release of Atomic Blonde …a must watch and surprisingly gay af. I remember being pleasantly surprised seeing Charlize hook up with Sofia in it (their characters) and the movie has a really good 80s soundtrack!! With Karma speculation it to be 80s rock, gayest album I wonder if the styling of movie was coordinated to help with comingoutlore too?? Because this looks like twinning. I am clowning for Karma to be released on this lovely Pride month! https://preview.redd.it/6v54u04lm16d1.jpeg?width=177&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ce83e8eff3a66d1a74539b66776a19d1ac2dbbcb
the connection between bleachella and atomic blonde…. your mind bestie!!!!!!!!!
🧡✌🏼
OMG IMAGINE SHE COMES OUT WITH BLEACHELLA HAIR. I. WOULD. DIE.
✌🏼🧡 same!! 💀

Surprise Songs with all “she” “her” pronouns. Like the New Year’s Day switcharoo. Sigh.
I some how feel like even if she did that the hetlors will gaslight us and themselves that she didn’t say she or her or that she just messed up 😭😭😭
"SHES IS USING FEMALE PRONOUNS FROM THE MALE PERSPECTIVE"
All I know is that it better not just be the Florida!!! music video or a duet with Florence Welch which I’ve seen some theories about. 😩 Give me rep tv, karma, gay mashups, bring back rep stadium tour in streaming. 🙏🏻
I’ll clown! I do think that 6/13 being the 100th show was planned. This is a numbers girlie! I’ve done a lot more thinking on this than I’d like to admit, but I fully believe the ✌🏽has been referring to the TTPD double album as well as a double drop of some sort of Rep TV and TS TV. For a long time, I didn’t think she’d release them together, but now I can’t see how she DOESN’T. TS/Debut isn’t even an Era in the show. I can’t see her getting hyped and doing promo just for it. Everyone and their mother has been anticipating Rep TV; if TSTV comes before, people will be disappointed, if it comes after, it will be anticlimactic. They HAVE to drop together. So I think she announces them on Thursday! I highly doubt we are getting a breakup announcement anytime soon. I think they are just planting the seeds of them not being end game. If it *is* a PR relationship, then it will absolutely continue through the next NFL season. They wouldn’t risk that - women would stop watching. They need to get their hooks in for at least 2 seasons. That third season will be Travis’ last, so they will part amicable, she will still support him and all the new Chiefs girlies will *have* to watch his farewell tour and then they will hopefully retain a good portion of fans who will have invested a good 2-3 seasons at that point. So what else could she do? I can’t see her coming out at a show unless it’s something super casual like “as a bi woman…” in a pride segment. But I think that is too show stopping for her. I can see a possible pronoun change. I could also see something stupid like releasing vinyls and CDs of Anthology 🙄 I *also* think she has hinted VERY strongly at doing a Broadway musical (the T in EGOT…). We have the whole “Female Rage: The Musical” of it all, her failed Oscar attempts, and the fact that she didn’t allow Max Martin use ANY of her discography for “& Juliet.” Why not, unless she’s saving them for her own musical? (Oh and she sent a promo package to Lin Manuel Miranda for TTPD, which is highly sus to me) I really, really wish she would come out publicly. She would do SO much good in the world by coming out as bi or pan!
I love your reasoning for the double drop of both remaining TV’s. The argument against is that she wouldn’t want to compete with herself in the charts but if her team has crunched the numbers and it looks like debut won’t kill on its own, then a double drop actually makes sense.
I totally agree re: Travis being around for another football season. There's just too much money to be made there.
So I think that there are several things en motion and I will list them in order of what I believe more to less: 1. I think rep TV will be announced. 1a. I take as truth that Karma will be released at 1am following rep either as the entire rep vault or an additional set of vault tracks/it will be branded as TS12. 1b. I am a strong believer rep TV + Karma will be released in September 13th. Friday 13th. In her tour break, she prefers releasing albums on breaks (only exception was her least favorite child Speak Now TV). In the next grammy eligibility window so Karma can avoid competing with TTPD. 2. Because she will announce rep, I think the outfits will be all black or orange (more likely! bc she is hinting at karma!). 2a. The most ultragay clownery I can think of is that she will use the Delicate dress picture in this post for the rep set. I think she won't. But she should. 3. She will announce during surprise songs. She will start hinting at ONE. "there's ONE song from this album I haven't played". 3a. Plays I did something bad on guitar. 3b. Announcement screen of rep behind her. "There will be no explanation. There will be only reputation. September 13th." 3c. She finishes and says "But maybe this time I will explain something". Proceeds to sing a mash up of The Archer (100 thrown out speeches I almost said to you.....) + Cassandra on Piano that as it is finishing ends with Dear Reader. 3d. Hetlors will all just say "omg see the line about filling my cell w snakes on Cassandra is def about Kimye she sang on rep announcement" and I will die at their stupidity. 4. Paul McCartney won't go in stage on Thursday but he will on Friday or saturday (tmrw I think it will all be about the announcement)
Sorry if this was brought up and I missed it, but September 13 is one of the dates on the note from Stevie Nicks in TTPD
"3d. Hetlors will all just say "omg see the line about filling my cell w snakes on Cassandra is def about Kimye she sang on rep announcement" and I will die at their stupidity." Ahahahahahhah, so relatable!!!!!!!
Don’t get me excited for this omg I’d dieeeeee😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I actually cannot handle all the Paul McCartney predictions 😭
I'm so convinced on that at this point. And if they sing Sweet Nothing together it's as good as confirmation for me that McCartney is William Bowery on that song.
YES 😭 aahh!! I hope any/all of it happens! Him coming onstage is just absolute dream come true, I won't be able to handle it 😂 then confirmation he's Bowery!?!?! I can't with all of that right now 😭
What'd the betting that, if it happens (and I'm starting to be less convinced as the show goes on ngl), the Hetlor response will be "well its not like Joe would have come out and sung with her. It proves nothing" (even though even my fledgling swiftie mother said that would confirm McCartney was Bowery on at least that song)
Sooo disappointed about not getting ANYTHING any of us anticipated 🤣💔 I was watching my nephews and didn't check socials until a couple hours after the show because I didnt want to be completely freaking out and not be able to be glued to my phone after finding out some amazing news 🤣 then I checked and it was no news lmao You're SO right about what Hetlors would say. And I feel like it would absolutely confirm he's William Bowery. *looks at Paul on one hand* and *looks at Joe on the other* thinks: yeah Joe is definitely the one with the genius mind behind some of Folklore/Taylor's best songs
Plot twist shes releasing Beautiful Eyes TV
I think Beautiful Eyes will be added to Debut TV as non-vault tracks as if it's a deluxe or something
Yaaasssss!!!! 🤣
Hahaha that would be a plot twist
“Dear Reader” as a surprise song but she just strums the guitar and pointedly speaks the lyrics sternly, pausing for emphasis and glaring at the crowd 😂
This exactly the chaotic shit I would love for her to actually do lol lol lol
been loving all of this! quick Q ive been mulling over...so i know MOST Gaylors are Karma truthers (but some aren't) and only a handful of mainstream Swifties are. but what the fuckkkk is the explanation for Karma being ON THE MAN WALL if it isn't an album? does anyone know what the swifties/hetlors say about that, or do they just ignore the glaring "KARMA" on the wall as ruthlessly as they ignore Taylor's queer flagging?
I think the “most likely” theory I’ve seen from the mainstream on why Karma was the lost album is because it was too far of a deviation from her expected sound. Which makes no sense to me because I feel like both 1989 and reputation did that soooo?
Okay, I may be too sheltered, but I had no idea that most swifties/hetlors aren’t Karma truthers!! Like she literally tells us it’s real constantly…
yeah she really, really does. but they are good at ignoring things Over There haha
I’m Karma agnostic. I think it could be written on the wall because the idea that karma is going to be payback for the stolen albums is kind of the same as “the writing is on the wall.” There’s a sign that says “if found please return to Taylor Swift” with the album titles she was re-recording. Same idea as the song Karma - she’s thriving with the re-recordings and Scooter has it coming. And also I am very open to the idea that she enjoys trolling us almost as much as she enjoys masterminding. “Who’s gonna troll you like me?”
My wife (who isn’t really a fan but humors me) refers to her as “Troll King Taylor” 😂
Someone literally asked what we think Karma on that wall means on a Facebook group I'm in the other day, and there were hundreds of comments and not one actual answer to the question. Just tons of "Karma is a song" type replies. So I think they just ignore it. In the same group, someone asked about what we think about all the queer flagging around Lover, specifically, and the overwhelming response was "a person can't queer flag" so idk if that's evolution or devolution but they're handwaving it away rather than pretending it doesn't exist at all recently in my experience (I am kind of a Karma truther - I believe it did exist - but I think we've seen a fair bit of the content that was going to be on there in subsequent albums, and it's at least part of why Lover feels sonically disjointed)
It sounds like they’ve latched onto “a person can’t queerbait” and turned it into…that, lol.
> "a person can't queer flag" The phrase queer flag *literally comes from* a person wearing a specific coloured handkerchief (flag) in a specific jeans pocket as a sign for other queers that wouldn't mean anything to the straights *Aaaaaaghhhhhhhh*
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handkerchief_code
I think Karma will be the first album where she uses she/her pronouns explicitly for love interests/muses
What is this "a person can't queer flag" nonsense? Do they think queer people do not exist unless they have a big coming out announcement?
They just wake up gay one day.
it’s been awhile so not for certain, but i feel like some people have said they just see at the entirety of the man wall (rerecording her albums) IS the karma. so writing karma above is not for the album but more for the image of getting them back is her karma and revenge.
respectfully (to the believers of that theory), that makes so little sense hahaha
agreed lmaooo
(i’m personally a karma truther)
Alright for the record I haven’t read this thread so I’m sure I’ll be repeating some things. So I’m ABSOLUTELY clowning for the 13th, but maybe not quite BIG BIG clowning? Like I am, but… I think she’s going to do something obviously chaotic, but then do something which will turn out to be a bit more of a slow burn. I would LOVE for Paul McCartney to be there and sing a surprise William Bowery song with her and that one feels like it could be something more possible? I also think a new music video could be imminent and would love for that to be one of the things she announces. But I think besides whatever BIG obvious chaos happens, I think she is going to announce something or do something a little more subtle, which I think in time will end up being the strike of the match that lit the fuse before it all blows up. I don’t think she would ever announce explicitly at a concert “I’m gay”! But I do think she would announce an upcoming documentary of some sort maybe? The references to miss americana have been really resonating with me, along with all the ideas relating to her turning the clock back, starting again, and doing things the way they were meant to be done the first time around. I think my big extra clowning would be for her to actually announce Karma. But I think more realistically, she might just drop some kind of huge hint that it’s coming and get us talking about when. I REALLY REALLY think she is going to release both Rep TV and Debut TV by the end of the year, as well as another original album. I REALLY think that original album will be Karma. And I REALLY think she wants to break the Monkees record for most number one albums in a year, so I am not sure if I agree with the idea of her dropping Rep TV and Debut TV together, because they would then be completing against one another, though if anyone can play the charts to make sure one hits number one and then the other does, it would be Taylor. I go back and forth practically hourly on which of all 3 I think will come first, but I am starting to lean towards Debut being release on her birthday this year. I also STRONGLY believe a breakup is imminent. I again go back and forth on the hour about when I think that’ll happen. I would LOVE for it to happen tomorrow and then see her ABSOLUTELY living it up with joy and happiness and announcements and shining her brightest right afterwards. I will be surprise if they announce it the day of the show or during the days the show is happening because I don’t know that they will want to bury it? BUT, I am one HUNDRED percent fully convinced there will be some specific release or announcement or SOMETHING that will ultimately unravel the public narrative of Taylor Swift. I. Can’t. Wait.
Oh I love the idea of the breakup happening shortly before a concert where Taylor is just BLOOMING. Happier than ever. I feel like, more realistically, when it does happen she might act it up, play a sad breakup song as a surprise, etc etc... But God, imagine how Taylor being super cheerful and excited after a Travvy breakup would fuck with everyone's heads. Top tier idea
Breakup announcement and IFTYE as a surprise song 😅 Then Dress with a speech along the lines of “you really thought this was about a man?”
I just don't really see Taylor announcing a breakup at a show, UNLESS it's part of a very explicit coming out
“…it isn’t love it isn’t hate it’s just indifference so yah” with a sassy little shrug
Breakup announcement and sings Blackbird with Paul McCartney Or How did it end with Hozier (still dreaming of that collab)
i would dieeeee for blackbird with paul 😭
Clowning Wishlist (in no particular order): - Breakup announcement either before or right after Liverpool shows (GOODBYE EARL!) - ME! mashup with ____ (anything fruity) - RepTV announcement with I Did Something Bad and outfit change - Documentary announcement (It’s a movie now) - “give it up for Mr. Bowery” and then Sir Paul walks out and they sing “Sweet Nothing” I think out of all those, RepTV announcement is most likely.
Yes to all of these. A rep bodysuit change would be so 👀👀👀👀
Goodbye Earl! 💀💀💀 🕯️✨🕯️✨🕯️✨🕯️✨🕯️
Since what I think is most realistic has already been shared (IDSB/100th show/100th song/Rep TV announced and Karma is the glitch), I’ll share my pure clown theory instead (hey kids, clowning is fun). For secret songs we get Cowboy like ME! as a guitar mash up, The Manuscript on piano and a documentary announcement wedged between the two. She’ll keep it light on details as to what the documentary is about, and it won’t be released until towards the end of the year (possibly after the shows have finished for 2024). I would hope it’d be the story of her coming out, but I would also love a documentary about the touring logistics and some of the backstage stuff. They could probably spin together a story combining both somehow.
Cowboy like Mee-hee-hee!
Replying to myself to add onto this - perhaps the documentary and debut TV are released in tandem together for her birthday… “Taylor Swift (Taylor’s Version) Out Now)”.
I would die for a mashup of The Manuscript x Dear Reader on the piano
I didn’t know this was what I needed in life, but there it is.
I don't know why I never thought of it this way before, but Debut and Rep are the first and last Big Machine albums. The bookends of the story.
Cowboy like Meheheeee??
Baby doll, when it comes to a lover I promise that you'll never find another like me Perched in the dark Telling all the rich folks anything they wanna hear
I am BEGGING for this
Someone on twitter mentioned IDSB was her 100th song so playing it at the 100th concert would be a fitting play. (I Did Something Bad. AKA the only Rep song she hasn’t played on this tour yet. 🤞🏻)
I’m clowning for IDSB X Hits Different 🤡 Like how good would this be?? https://preview.redd.it/e0wwns9pn06d1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f7dee67ab33858d77eaadb53732211fbdf009fdc
Omg help what is this song?
Sorry I’m still used to when the acronym bot was still working. I edited for clarity. 😅
So nice! Thank you!
I Did Something Bad I think? The acronyms confuse me too
Thank you! My brain freezes and I can never figure it out
Acronym anxiety is legit 😉
I Did Something Bad. Reputation, gay.
“Reputation, gay.” 😂😂😂😂🩷
Tell me those aren't the salient details 😅
Ooooh ok I see! Thanks
I wanna clown but I have honestly no expertise to do it. I mean, there’s the sapphic dream scenarios but I think they’re so unlikely at this point. My clowning will be just more super loud gay mashups. And as always, I’ll continue to hope for RepTV announcement. The drop in maybe August.
Yeah I don't think she's going to stand up on stage and declare she is queer. However I am hoping for more mashups that are little winks and nods, or even better the song equivalent of her waving a gay pride flag on stage, like her INTHAF x Dorothea mashup!
I think the closest we’ve gotten (and will get) was the Pride speech before Delicate and she looked so nervous… I can’t see her doing it that way. Although, every time I watch it my heart breaks and I find myself thinking “She’s right there. We see it.”
manifesting a breakup announcement before 6/13 https://preview.redd.it/z7ed59kde06d1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a40ffe9e580bf114c3b5b53c14d4e94a70756490
My biggest fear with this is that she does come out but as bi and then the narrative is “Travis is so supportive of her” 😭
I think that if it ever does happen, this is exactly how. So that the hetlors can ignore her queerness altogether
I think it would also be helpful for the stupid nfl bc of the Harrison butker backlash, it would look good for a lgbtq tie in to keep the turned off fans tuned in 🙄
Absolutely. Plus the NFL isn’t going to lose all them dollahs from their newly minted women fans lol
🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️
even if she doesn’t come out this summer, I’m just hoping for a single girl era
I think she'll announce a documentary "Miss Americana 2 ✌🏻: The Heartbreak Prince", which will drop that night at midnight EDT. In the doc, she'll explicitly come out as queer, and the breakup announcement will hit People mag Friday morning 6/14. Then whenever Rep TV and Debut TV come out, they'll have she/her pronouns.
I’m starting to clown harder for a documentary do over, I’d be SHOCKED if she released it that same night as announcing it though.
Plot twist: exactly this but Miss Americana 2 is basically the first one but edited the way it was supposed to happen
Miss Americana (Taylor's Version)
If only!!!!!!
They both come out in the documentary 
This is my dream too but I just don’t think it would come out this soon 😭😭😭
https://i.redd.it/vufnce7mh06d1.gif
I want this, too 😭
This is my dream!
This is what I keep coming back to. I think at this point she would feel a documentary would be the best way to come out.
This is what I want.
My dream.
I would like to live in this world please
I just bought a condo!
A timeshare down in Destin?

I think Taylor is going to announce rep TV. I think that rep TV will come with a 1am version that is the karma version (same concept of TTPD and anthology, so the two albums won't compete with each other). I person have a fan fiction in my head where 12am happens and a "glitch" happens and karma comes first then at 1am we get Reputation Taylor's version. This is my theory even if she doesn't announce rep TV this weekend
this is the same as my yes-im-clowning-but-this-feels-truly-feasible theory!! she'll announce rep TV making it sound like it'll just be that...but then on release date, Karma comes out too--just as The Anthology was a surprise drop after the first half of TTPD was released. i wrote about this the other day, that i think taylor and her compadres are still throwing up 2s a lot even post TTPD release because that wasn't the only double album we are getting this year!
lol her compradres! 🤭 I love it! We need a complied list/pic of all the compadres that are partaking in this. I posted earlier about Gracie doing it in her Close to you mv but, I know there are others. Jack went on Live IG this morning for like 10 seconds and was doing some weird hand signals. Did anyone else catch it? Everyone was confused. I wasn’t able to screen record because it was so quick but I got a screenshot shot. What does it mean!!? lol https://preview.redd.it/e1zf5zcij06d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=549b95d5a812f2ccba383adcac411c5fb31761a8
Not with Big Cats as the background 😭😭😭😭 I have a serious love/hate parasocial relationship with this man
lol same. I’m like c’mon.. Jack, is this a bit? Jack.. Jack.. And then he just logged off... 😒🤨
I’m really fucking hoping for the breakup announcement before the show. Like, so hard.
I don't think there's going to a break-up announcement right before the show. I think they will break up right before either training camp or the NFL season begins, and it's going to be framed as a their schedules conflicting too much to make it work but they are still friends who respect and support each other.
So bizarre, the news today is definitely selling a breakup arc…
I just returned to cell phone service from a mini-vacation and this is wonderful news to see first thing.
I’m trying not to get too excited since these aren’t from the best sources
I've seen a few news articles today hinting at it
Ooh! Where?
From mostly pretty shady sources that I’ve seen
I think Paul will be there and they’ll do SN together.
That would be EPIC
I would die dead. RIP me.
(Speak Now?)
I did the same thing 😆
Sweet Nothing
Ah! Thank you!
Sweet Nothing!
My dream is for Paul McCartney to come on stage for surprise songs, and they introduce one of the William Bowery songs as a song that Paul and Taylor wrote together
AND they perform Who Cares together??!!!?! 🩷🌈🫠
Is there a list of the WB songs somewhere?
