Taylor Swift Latest News, Photos, and Videos

It’s a very, very big weekend for Taylor Swift with the surprise release of her ninth studio album and her 31st birthday tomorrow.

Now, the almost 31-year-old singer will be giving her first TV interview for support the new album Evermore. She will appear on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Monday night, December 14.

Also, the initial sales figures for Evermore‘s first week have been revealed.

Hits Daily Double is reporting that the album is on track to move between 300,000 to 350,000 total units for its first week of release. That number includes 150,000 to 170,000 copies of pure album sales.

In comparison, Folklore opened with 846,000 units for the first week with 615,000 pure album sales. The Evermore numbers are still very early predictions and the total could still go up or down depending on how the next few days go.

Whatever happens, it’s pretty clear that Taylor is on track to earning her eighth number one album!

Kid Cudi‘s new album will likely debut in the number two slot this coming week with around 150,000 to 175,000 total units.

It’s out!!

Just a few hours after making the announcement, Taylor Swift dropped her new album evermore – and you can stream it here now!

evermore is the 30-year-old entertainer’s ninth studio album, and the “sister record” for folklore – which is the album she released back in July.

“To put it plainly, we just couldn’t stop writing songs,” Taylor said in her evermore announcement. “To try and put it more poetically, it feels like we were standing on the edge of the folklorian woods and had a choice: to turn and go back or to travel further into the forest of this music. We chose to wander deeper in.”

Taylor Swift is keeping the 2020 surprises coming!

In celebration of her upcoming birthday, the almost 31-year-old singer/songwriter announced that her next album evermore will be out at midnight on Friday (December 11).

Taylor shared the news on Instagram, and revealed that it’s a continuation after folklore, because they couldn’t stop writing songs.

“I’m elated to tell you that my 9th studio album, and folklore’s sister record, will be out tonight at midnight eastern. It’s called evermore,” Taylor wrote. “To put it plainly, we just couldn’t stop writing songs. To try and put it more poetically, it feels like we were standing on the edge of the folklorian woods and had a choice: to turn and go back or to travel further into the forest of this music. We chose to wander deeper in.”

“I’ve never done this before. In the past I’ve always treated albums as one-off eras and moved onto planning the next one after an album was released. There was something different with folklore,” she continued. “In making it, I felt less like I was departing and more like I was returning. I loved the escapism I found in these imaginary/not imaginary tales. I loved the ways you welcomed the dreamscapes and tragedies and epic tales of love lost and found into your lives. So I just kept writing them.”

“And I loved creating these songs with Aaron Dessner, Jack Antonoff, WB, and Justin Vernon. We’ve also welcomed some new (and longtime) friends to our musical kitchen table this time around…”

Taylor revealed more in a couple of follow up posts, including the full tracklist, and bonus tracks. Check out her posts below…

Taylor Swift has blessed us with a little sneak peek at the re-recorded version of her song “Love Story“!

The 30-year-old’s track appears in a new commercial that her friend Ryan Reynolds wrote for the dating app Match.

“Okay so while my new re-records are NOT done, my friend @VancityReynolds asked me if he could use a snippet of one for a LOLsome commercial he wrote so…here’s a sneak peak of Love Story! Working hard to get the music to you soon!!” she wrote on Twitter. Check it out below!

If you missed it, Taylor recently opened up about the re-recording process and shared that so far, “Love Story” has actually been her favorite one to do!

Taylor also just won an Icon Award at a recent awards show, and her “Thank You” speech was amazing.

Taylor Swift has another trophy to add to her mantle!

The almost 31-year-old singer won the Attitude Icon Award at the 2020 Virgin Atlantic Attitude Awards, which were held on Tuesday (December 1) in London.

“First of all, Todrick, thank you for that amazing introduction. I’m really, really grateful for this,” Taylor says in her speech. “This is so amazing. I want to say thank you to anyone who had a hand in deciding that I should deserve this.”

“Mostly, I want to say thank you to the fans for giving me a platform to make music and to be vocal about the things that I think are right and wrong. I just believe very firmly that everyone should be able to live out their love story without the fear of discrimination, and the way for that to happen is for us to continue to keep pushing governments to put protections in place for members of the LGBTQ community,” she continued.

“And I promise to always advocate for that, and I’m just so grateful for this amazing award. Thank you so, so, so, so, so, so much!”

Taylor Swift is dishing on the process of re-recording her old songs!

The 30-year-old appeared on Good Morning America to talk about her new folklore music film on Disney+ and talked about re-recording.

“I’ve been having a really good time re-recording my older music,” Taylor said. “So far of the ones that I’ve recorded, I think it’s been the most fun doing ‘Love Story,’ because the older music, my voice was so teenaged and I, sometimes when I hear my older music and my older young teenage voice, it makes me feel like I’m a different singer now. So it’s been the most fun to go back and re-record ones that I feel like I could actually possibly improve upon the song. So that’s been a really amazing, fun adventure.”

Taylor recently accepted her American Music Award from the recording studio where she originally recorded her older songs.

She also recently dished that the re-recording has been “both exciting and creatively fulfilling,” and she has some surprises in store!
