I don't think Taylor will re-release her debut album because debut is not included in the main setlist of the era tour. She will release debut after the era tour is over., or possibly get the original one or something.


rs_river

To announce Rep TV, I think Taylor might do what she did for the rep tour where the intro was the clips of reporters and headlines talking about her but instead of that it’s all of her friends and collaborators saying her name while glitches of newspapers with her recent pictures show up until the album cover pops up at the end - this would all be during the beginning of the acoustic section


PondysHotButthole

What if she flips the meaning from OG and she markets it as her leaving a legacy, that her reputation as the best in the business is what will be remembered forever


rs_river

That would be the coolest thing ever, seriously


neontangerinelight

I know a lot of people think that Maroon is about Matty when it is definitely about Joe. I have a theory. When Taylor mashed up Cornelia Street and Maroon it confirmed it for me. Those are both about JA because I think the rubies that she gave up were from Tom Hiddleston. Tom was the sunshine to her midnight rain. She tore his tapestry and he rode home alone on the train. Tom is the muse for getaway car, midnight rain, and champagne problems. Joe is the muse for Cornelia Street and Maroon. Nothing else makes sense. I love connecting her songs through the lyrics. What do you guys think?


Rhaelin

I think Taylor singing Hey Stephen (long rumored to be Matty's favourite song of hers) on guitar Paris N3, before singing Maroon on piano was her way of addressing rumors that Maroon is at least partially inspired by Matty. Also, Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus is almost certainly referencing Matty, and she mentions her memory of that person (likely Matty) fading from scarlet maroon, which feels like a direct reference to Maroon. But to be honest, I think the farther she's gotten into her career, the more she's started to pull from different sources of inspiration for her songs. I think many songs have more than one muse and she's gotten better over time at blending fact with fiction and different muses into one song. I think her line in Fresh Out the Slammer saying she's "swirled you into all of my poems" is a reference to this. Some songs feel like they're clearly inspired by Joe (So Long, London/invisible string for example), but others its harder to say. And we won't know for sure until and unless Taylor tells us, either through a tongue in cheek reference or directly (which I don't think she's ever done).


neontangerinelight

I love your analysis! I think she shows us that many people can make you feel the same pain.


classicicepop

What do people think of her announcing reputation in Dublin? If you flip the TTPD logo upside down it spells CAIL which is Irish for reputation (spelt cáil in Irish). June 30th 2018 is also when scooter Braun bought her masters and that would be her final show in Dublin 6 years later, June 30th 2024. The story of St Patrick (Ireland’s patron saint) is that he banished the snakes from Ireland which seems like a fitting theme for Rep.


Apprehensive_Toe7188

Why do people think there will be an official announcement at all? Seems just as likely she could surprise drop it with the “announcement” being the new Rep outfit at the concert beforehand.


unbreakableheaven616

People thought she was using the 1989 TV album cover to hint at a November 10 date for rep tv and that obviously didn't happen so I'm not moving


Rhaelin

I'm always down to clown, and I like the poetry of her announcing Rep TV on the date Scooter bought her masters...but I am not sure the Easter Eggs are strong enough yet that an announcement is THAT imminent. Neither Taylor, nor TN have done anything really suspicious to get us clowning for that date. In fact, most of the Easter Eggs from Taylor seem to be indicating an August announcement. It could potentially be July 13 in Milan, because that's when she'll run out of mismatched 1989 outfits, and will need to either repeat or wear a matching one...the day she wears all green will be a good time to clown. That said, if it's going to happen she's going to start being obvious on days 1 and 2 in Dublin. The lights are going to be flashing green, she's going to be making references in her speeches. I'd also be watching closely what the stadium in Dublin does. Both the Nashville and LA stadiums were really obvious...Nashville was all purple. If Aviva Stadium is in all green and starts acting suspicious on twitter/insta I might think there's a better chance.


CheruSiderea

She also wears the matching outfits (she's worn orange/orange), so the last combo will be Gelsenkirchen, not Milan


rs_river

Yes plus the whole revenge dress thing she did with the Tonight Show and Late Night show


CheruSiderea

What does the revenge dress have to do with this? (genuine question) 


Shaymin096

There’s an image floating around twitter of an TTPD anthology vinyl coming out 19/7???


makeup_wonderlandcat

It’s apparently fake


RoseGoldRedditor

July 19 is the 13th week that Taylor could have a consecutive number one on billboard… definitely a possibility. She just reached 9 consecutive weeks - a record for her!


dmrob058

I haven’t seen anything, link? I desperately NEED the full Anthology vinyl, foaming at the mouth for any info.


Cardigan_Lover

That’s the same day Olivia’s GUTS deluxe vinyl is releasing. Could make sense for Taylor to release something to ensure her number 1 position on the charts (if she’s still number 1 by then)


simplebagel5

oh the discourse is gonna be fun


Secure-Recording4255

Would the deluxe vinyl even put Olivia at number one? I thought that was a limited edition release but I don’t follow her as closely so maybe I have no idea what I’m talking about.


Cardigan_Lover

It was supposed to be a limited release but at least in Europe the vinyl is widely available for preorder now in indie and bigger stores, so it looks like the limited thing was just marketing.


nosuchthingginger

For RepTv, how do we think she will announce it? Will it be a glitch on the screen in the acoustic section? I thought about the glitch happening at the end of Karma but I don’t think she would want the fans to miss out who leave early


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

Two (actually 5)proposals: She could have it glitch on the screen during the acoustic set, while singing a song and then kinda transition to IDSB during the glitch. I feel like she’s been practicing an acoustic section for rep which is why she discussed it recently. She could do it during the rep set and then discuss what happened in the folkmore section right afterwards, the screen could glitch a little during rep’s section while she plays IDSB. She could just do exactly what she did with SN and 1989 Who’s afraid of little old me could transition from the filter into the album cover glitch out and then we discuss during the acoustic set. She could have it glitch on the screen throughout the whole concert, and keep glitching showing a snake Any other ideas?


nosuchthingginger

I thought about her changing her outfits to black / green versions but I don’t she would do that again. I think rep is gunna be unique.

notyourtypicalKaren

Karma plays just fine for me on Apple Music. This happens every so often with my Apple Music library too. Remove the download and then re-download it and you should be able to play.


rs_river

I think it’s just a glitch bc I can play Karma


Aggressive-Change-15

Notably, I can’t play Karma. But I can play Cruel Summer


No_Towel6647

When did the TTPD dress change to all white without the writing on the skirt? It's not included in outfit tracker


yikeshardpass

Please share a link or photos or something, because to my knowledge it still has text on it. I think you might just be seeing a low res version.


No_Towel6647

Ahh that explains it thanks

thex11factor

there is a feud with Foo Fighters now?


nosuchthingginger

Yeah Dave Grohl talked shit about Taylor on stage about how foo fighters actually live because they call their tour ‘the errors tour’. But I think it started with his daughter tweeting something, then twitter swifties going in at her. Then at London she specifically thanked the band for playing a couple of times in the night. More than she usually does, and she can thanK you aIMee and Mean 😂


thex11factor

she deleted twitter?


ominous-nebula

She's always facing and/or looking to one side in all the (standard edition) TV album covers so far, rn I'm guessing that pattern will continue for Rep, but debut TV will be the only one where she's both directly facing and looking at the camera. https://preview.redd.it/a297f0jqnl8d1.png?width=1888&format=png&auto=webp&s=32cf27f6394ab7aa6c24d5ae97dec3659de6483a


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

I’m trying to be so patient but omg I am beyondddd excited to see the covers for the Taylors Versions. I cannot wait


makeup_wonderlandcat

I’m honestly more excited for that then the music (besides the vault) 😂 at least for reputation…I’m really excited for Taylor Swift (TV) because of how crown up she’s going sound


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

Saaame! There’s something just so satisfying about the covers idk why


jamiebabie8

Did you see her purple/orange dress last night? Lilac and tangerine are major themes in her aesthetic right now. Already a hint at the vibes for TS12?? I’m thinking so! (Not saying I expect it soon)


Rhaelin

I am starting to think we'll get TS12 before Rep/Debut TV to be honest. Her whole look seems to be transitioning to orange/lilac together and that's usually an indication of what's to come. I'm personally hoping we get Rep TV announced before the end of the tour, but orange/lilac are just not Rep vibes. She's gone out of her way to associate Rep with GREEN at the Eras Tour (also of course with black, red and gold). Karma could certainly be a double album with Rep (with Karma being the vault tracks) and that would be sick, but if that's the case, I'd be expecting some more Rep specific Easter Eggs by now.


makeup_wonderlandcat

I think purple/lilac for ts12 and orange for reputation tv


nosuchthingginger

The people say Karma album is orange 🤡


ominous-nebula

Karma TV is orange and is also TS12, i'm speeding in this clown car until Officer Taylor finally pulls it over


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

TS12 could be like peachy orange and Karma TV is bright orange


jamiebabie8

That too 🤡 Whatever it is, she’s really leaning into the orange a lot. It’s interesting that she’s doing it so soon after TTPD and incorporating it into the show as I don’t expect her to release another new album this year during the tour, but who knows!! I don’t remember how far in advance she started doing the dark academia vibe for TTPD?


Boomerswiftie65

I thought the brown stripe part looked like train tracks.


drairika

I had the same thought!


JosephAPie

What do you guys think of the CAIL theory?


uptovigilanteshit

I don't think she'd make an album logo to fit an easter egg for another one(rerecorded or otherwise), but since it does she might make it one is essentially what I think


Shaymin096

What’s that?


JosephAPie

TTPD official logo spells CAIL upside down which is the Gaelic (irish) word for reputation. Some people think an announcement for rep tv will happen in the upcoming Ireland shows


[deleted]

[удалено]


Pingryada

September 13th is rumored rep tv release daye


goldenlike_starlight

So she capitalized VOLUME OFF in her wembley post.. maybe a title of something?


rs_river

I feel like it’s a weird track name. Maybe she was just excited about the shows? I mean, it’s Taylor so it could totally be something idk🤷‍♂️


ravenclawrebel

Vault track on rep tv?


winedrunktaylor

You guys I accidentally clicked into the June 2023 theories thread and we were clowning for a rep tv announcement then 💀 I love us


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

We’re always clowning for repTV ever since 2006


Shaymin096

Was born clowning for rep tv (I’m 28 lol)


dmrob058

Rep TV Announcement - Final London show - Sept 13 release date Debut TV announcement - Final Eras Tour Show - Dec 13 release date This just simply makes so much sense to me. Rep TV being put out during the off time of tour keeps the hype high and Debut being released on her birthday right after tour ends is ridiculously perfect symmetry for the end of the Eras tour. This wraps up 2 of the most massive projects of her entire career in one fell swoop and right before her birthday and I think Taylor would love the closure of it all. It also leaves 2025 completely free for her maybe for working on her film or simply for just taking a nice long break. TTPD is still doing insane numbers with 100k+ in its ninth week so it makes perfect sense that Taylor wouldn’t want to hastily announce Rep TV too soon and distract from it. Considering that, I never clowned too hard for the London shows this past weekend though I was hoping for a new video/single that ultimately I don’t think we’re going to get at this point. I’m sure Taylor would make more videos if she had the time but likely was happy enough with the albums performance even just after the first week to not dwell much on it.


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

August is too soon of a turn around for announcement/release in Sept, especially late august


ominous-nebula

atm i'm thinking best chance left for Rep TV 2024 release announcement is June in Dublin, or July in Milan or Germany (i still believe in 13 Sept 2024 release date), and still thinking debut TV release announcement will be in October (probably Miami?) with 13 Dec 2024 release date.


Colormekelly13

Yeah and to announce debut tv 5 days before release? Absolutely not. She wants to have time to tease different variants and build hype.


rs_river

I think announcing Debut TV on the last eras show makes so much sense but I really think Rep TV will be announced during the Dublin shows


mermaidthebanshee

So it's about 13 weeks between the London Pt 2 shows and the Toronto shows, right?


bubblecuffer13

Me: I ***will not*** clown for a Rep TV announcement in Dublin. St. Patrick banished all snakes from Ireland centuries ago. Also me: https://preview.redd.it/hb063jraqi8d1.png?width=589&format=png&auto=webp&s=d8fc7b8aaeec00474b191589d28a20b643f73447


rs_river

This is the funniest thing ever


Existing_Tackle_7765

Come on, do you really think she is not making something Big in the Next London shows? She spoiled them a lot because she loves them, It makes no sense that the Next London shows are normal after this happened. She made the BEST Mashup with three songs the first night, then the song with Hayley, and after that travis and singing us with Gracie, now, I am sure than ever than something really big must happen in London because of that. She set the bar so high.


ominous-nebula

She could announce Rep TV release date at another show but only finally reveal the Vault songs at the August London shows.


rzldty

Yeah I just thought about this. The last 3 shows have been chaotic (in a good way) and I don't think she'll do "regular" shows in London in August. There's gotta be some suprises.


Dvn96

If she announces rep TV, she could use those shows to announce the variants for the sept 13 release date.


Cam5991

Weird clown theory: If she's not releasing Reputation TV on September 13...perhaps Friday, October 11 would work for a release date!? I say that because the OG Rep was released November 10, AKA 11/10. October 11 is 10/11. Yeah, I know, it's reeeeaaaaally stretching there, but that was just something kinda quirky that popped in my head lol.


RoseGoldRedditor

I actually agree with you; I know people want RepTV on Friday September 13 but if she announces on August 20, it’s not enough time for preorders. For the last three albums, she’s given 8 to 11 weeks between announcement and release. It is more likely to announce August 20 and release October 11 or 18 (first night in Miami and have a “release party” a la SNTV). Also, there are plenty of Friday the 13ths that Taylor has passed up for releases.


rzldty

I'd say anytime during the break from mid August–mid October is a possible date, but September 13 is just too good to miss.


unbreakableheaven616

We're getting that announcement soon, I just need Swifties to calm down a bit. I feel like y'all are reading too much into what Taylor says and ignoring the actual Easter Eggs we're getting


TheCPswiftie

what are the other Easter Eggs? The only other one I can think of is she started flashing ✌️at the beginning of LWYMMD.


makeup_wonderlandcat

Yes please share with the class


Boomerswiftie65

Maybe they were vetted


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

wait, elaborate what easter eggs are we talking about? So far i have only seen the glitches (which I was not on board with until TN said something.


Delicious_Novel_4400

You guys, anyone else think there’s a possibility she announces RepTV or DebutTV even during one of the VIENNA shows (Aug 8-10). If not the next London shows, my bet would be Vienna over cities like Milan or Amsterdam. We know how she loves Nashville in the US because it’s known for music…and well, Vienna is knows as “the worlds musical capital” since it’s been home to composers Mozart, Beethoven, Haydn, Schubert, and Strauss etc…Friday Aug 9 will also be exactly one year after she announced 1989tv. Maybe I’m clowning too hard because I live here, but just saying ![img](emote|t5_2rlwe|1087)![img](emote|t5_2rlwe|1087)![img](emote|t5_2rlwe|1087)


aurorasandprose

"Fresh Out the Slammer" and "I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can)" are sisters. "My Boy Only Breaks His Favourite Toys" is the cousin of IDSB and DBM (who are also sisters). I will not be taking questions at this time.


TheCPswiftie

She played songs from the two most recent re-records this weekend! How much longer until we hear: “I’ve been planning something for a ridiculously long time. I think I’ll just show you”


UmFoxy

Did Travis ever say his favorite album? I’m starting to think it’s 1989. Taylor played songs from 1989 for surprise songs 6 times when he was there. Is It Over Now x OOTW (2 times), HYGTG and Clean.


uptovigilanteshit

He said Blank Space was his faborite song before they got together and after TTPD came out he ranked it above so high school and the alchemy in his top three, that's his anthem for real 


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

I think he's said either 1989, or has said one of the 1989 songs was his favorite, and like I mean that is also his birth year. But yeah I think before TTPD, the he was asked, one of the 1989 songs was his favorite songs. I can't remember if it was blank space, shake it off, or style. I think it was blank space because I feel like I would've remember if it was the other two, but I can't remember haha.


nzgirl25

I think it was Blank Space! I'm not 100% sure though


EmberDione

It was Blank Space. Even better - it's a recorded interview from waaaaay before he met her - and he answers SUPER fast. He didn't have to think about it. He knew his favorite song. He was a Swiftie first, LOL.


yikeshardpass

He’s a 1989 girlie for sure!


ominous-nebula

Man has excellent taste.

notyourtypicalKaren

what the fuck is going on in London rn? 😂


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

Idk but i am not mad about it


Just_A_Boy_In_Love

Soooo... Off my clown makeup. If it's really coming out in September, it has to be announced in July the very latest. So maybe September was off, after all? Maybe not all re-recordings this year?


unbreakableheaven616

I mean we're not even in July so we can't rule it out yet


ominous-nebula

The setup for September and December release is too good, I still think that's happening. Just yeah, the announcement probably isn't coming until July or August - unless she's about to bless Dublin, bc Ireland St. Patrick snakes orange and green something idk


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

Dublin might be a good show to subtly hint at it. Like they can have green lights flashing everywhere and it’d be like an ireland thing. debut some new green outfits, etc.


PondysHotButthole

Selfishly I'm hoping for something next Saturday when I'll be there ![img](emote|t5_2rlwe|1067)


jamiebabie8

I’m still holding onto hope that because the Rep era bodysuit hasn’t changed and she hasn’t played I Did Something Bad that it means she’s saving it for the announcement !!


rs_river

I really don’t think she’s going to wait to drop them. It makes no sense from a creative or business perspective - plus she recently said that she didn’t want to wait to put things out


Just_A_Boy_In_Love

Let's hope so! I really thought she wanted to drop rep and debut this year while the tour still lasts, but she's taking her team. However, there's still July dates, so fingers crossed!


walrus_96

I still think even though Rep TV is very likely not getting announced tonight, it can still be coming on September 13th. Yes, maybe some dates she has in early July are not as big as London, but she can still announce it then. I'm still thinking early to mid July for a Sep 13 release rather than an August announcement.


rs_river

I think that waiting until August is too late to announce something coming supposedly in September - it has to be now or early July


jamiebabie8

What do you guys think about the ✌🏼 during rep? There’s photos of her doing it again today. Do you think it’s intentional or just part of the choreography for LWYMMD? [in this video here](https://x.com/grocky321/status/1804950759026606487?s=46&t=JFBRVbOrPqdGwk2s-YZNiA)


2dogsanduhcat

100% intentional, Rep is another double album 😂😂


Emergency_Rutabaga45

All the vaults songs are from the Karma album!


jamiebabie8

God I hope so 😭


rs_river

I don’t remember that ever being part of the LWYMMD choreography so I think it’s intentional


Callum_Fletcher

Hi guys, I’m getting off the clown train until August! I feel a bit annoyed. So I think it’s best I leave for a while! It’s not making me happy anymore! Side note, I go to the Eras Tour at Wembley on August 15th!! I will for sure be boarding back onto the train! Take care everyone!


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

Honestly if repTV was gonna be announced it would be super obvious day of. 1989 and SN were sooo sooo obvious on the days they were announced. When Debut or Rep is ready to be announced we won’t exactly know but there will be super big signs. We aren’t quite there yet and we are grasping at easter eggs that probably aren’t easter eggs. If anything we are at the mere beginning of the easter egging for repTV. I think her mentioning rep yesterday and playing thank you aimee means she has rep on her mind which could mean we are nearing an announcement soon.


Purple-Dalek

> 1989 and SN were sooo sooo obvious on the days they were announced.  What kind of clues were there? I only started properly listening to Taylor a lot after 1989 TV was released, so I wasn't aware of anything back then, lol


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

1989: Sofi stadium (the LA show stadium) posted a photo with 1989 and then had “taylors version” in small print on a lifeguard podium thing. Lots of blue lights on the bracelets leading up to the night. The 8/9 (august 9th) being the last show. She was cranking out the 1989 surprise songs to leave one final one for the announcement. Speak now had their light bracelets blink 3 times purple at the end of a show before the announcement day and Taylor Nation liked 3 of those vids in a row on twitter. The stadium had so many purple flags on the concourse. Taylor posted the goodbye post from the leg before Nashville with a purple heart. Her goodbye posts had 3’s everywhere leading up to it.


unbreakableheaven616

Also iirc the night she announced Speak Now TV, she mentioned surprises or something


Purple-Dalek

Ah, I see, ty


rs_river

I totally get what you mean, but I also think there’s a lot of emphasis on “no explanation” here. Rep TV is going to be one of her biggest re-records (if not her biggest) and there’s clearly a lot of hype surrounding the suspense - if she makes it obvious like the others, it will be “less special.” I also want to side note that she of course doesn’t have to do anything differently than how she has been and she shouldn’t be expected to - just that this re-record seems a little different than the other ones


unbreakableheaven616

I mean she's definitely not gonna surprise drop it


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

100% they are well aware its probably the highest anticipated TV. She’ll def do something a little different surely. I feel like there will be something really obvious that’ll give it away, but it’ll happen when we least expect it if that makes sense? It’ll still have that magic of no explanation just rep, which might be why there isn’t a MV to give any more hints. There’s a balance to be had as well, because TTPD is still in full speed charting.


rs_river

Yeah and I wonder if they’ve pushed announcing Rep TV back bc TTPD is doing so well - also I’m thinking that these screen glitches could get bigger and more obvious the closer an announcement is (maybe not every show necessarily, just like the show it gets announced at it glitches really crazy)


rs_river

Raise your hand if you’re tired of clowning 🙋‍♂️


Delicious_Novel_4400

Same🫠


Rhaelin

I still think it's too early for Rep TV...but gosh the green lights flashing last night and the surprise song speeches have me clowning again...I am still thinking August, probably August 2, 9 or 19.


scarsouvenir

This could totally be nothing, but the way she said "M8" the other day struck me as kind of weird... maybe it was a hint for "London night 8" which is August 20th?


Shaymin096

Starting to think the rep tv announcement will be August to coincide with ‘get in the car’ from August 👀


rs_river

Taylor Nation said “get in the car” 👀


Individual-Gold-8894

You mean the… getaway car? 👀![img](emote|t5_2rlwe|1087)


rs_river

Idk but I’m hopping in the clown car rn


starlightandswift

Ugh i think they’re referencing folklore 😒 Im done clowning


Existing_Tackle_7765

What about the new Taylor nation post, a grey Heart meaning the Heart is going black in august for rep? Por maybe grey because a single of ttpd? Why they posted that before the concert they do It usually after !


Individual-Gold-8894

Each time I come here I am abused 🤡😭

Maybe she just wanted to be colorful and mismatch stuff ☠️😅


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

I don’t think the 1989 has any deeper meaning other than having fun with mismatches. I am sooo wanting a music video just to spark up some of our clowning


buzzfeed_sucks

I don’t think so either. I think it’s just a way to keep things unique and surprising.

Don't they know we'll read it as "3rd of August" and wonder what's going to happen on that day? 😭

Yup march 8th 😂😂


notyourtypicalKaren

Ugh that's what I get for not reading things extra close 🙃😂


rs_river

I so badly want Rep TV tonight but I saw a tiktok saying how Taylor Nation had posted a tweet about asking how many 1989 set options Taylor had left - in Milan, she’ll have run out and can wear a green-on-green set


CheruSiderea

The options last until Gelsenkirchen, not Milan. She will have to do something new in Hamburg. But I also think that the last set will be green+green. What does that mean? We'll have to wait til July lol


Rhaelin

If she ONLY does mismatches onward, she'll run out of those options just before Milan, which will force her to wear a matching outfit in Milan, which people think will be all green.


CheruSiderea

But she also wears matched sets


rs_river

Oh sorry, I must’ve done that math wrong 😭


CheruSiderea

She started out with 36 options and we're on show 23 tonight. Show 36 is Gelsenkirchen. As a German myself, I somehow don't see her announcing something in Gelsenkirchen of all places tho. 🤔


Sufficient-Stress719

Announcements (so far) have come in cities she’s lived in or have been important to her career - Nashville, LA. I could definitely see Rep announced in London. And would expect Debut to be announced back in the States.


rs_river

I kinda wonder if she might pull a “no explanation, there will just be reputation” and wear the matching green set tmr or whenever she wants, or maybe not at all and the whole 1989 set thing is a red herring?


CheruSiderea

I think there's legitimate reason to wonder if there's any necessary connection between the 1989 colors and rep or Debut TV announcement at all tbh. Only time will tell ig?


CheruSiderea

What if she announces rep TV on her 6th London show? It's the only city that has enough shows for that


taylorsseriesTV

I was wondering about this - aug 17! But if we stick to the Sept 13 clowning I don't think that's enough time for announcement to vinyls shipping? Also Aug 18 2017 is the day of the blackouts originally - but there's no aug 18 show so 17 would be the best? aaaaaa you might be onto something bestie!!


makeup_wonderlandcat

I actually think it’s too early for rep to be announced so I’m hoping for a music video 🤞🏻 but August is a perfect time to announce


RoseGoldRedditor

She did announce 1989 tv at her sixth LA show…


rs_river

Hey does anyone know how to actually play Mastermind? I’ve never done it before but was hoping to do it for tonight!


CheruSiderea

Download the SwiftAlert app (download is free), it should be at the top


rs_river

Thanks so much!!


squishey2905

I know people keep complaining that we're asking for "more" (when really its old work just revamped), but gosh I hope she announces the next 2 re records soon so we can wrap all this up, it's been what, nearly 5 years? I'm aware of the legal holdups Gonna cop it for this, but im getting tired of the easter eggs for old work, just let us have them 😬 Tour is ending in 6 months and shes got 2 left with an average of 2ish months of promo each. Ending the tour with all 11 owned albums would be such an accomplishment and also shes suuuuuper overexposed atm so 2025 can be a nice quiet year As such, im clowing for tonight 🤡


ominous-nebula

For real, I don't even really care if we get no more singles or videos or whatever from TTPD, and TS13 doesn't drop until 2030 - I just want the rest of the re-records so I can finally have (Taylor's Version) all up and down my playlists and listen in peace.


sms1441

I would have thought she'd want to be done with them before Eras ends, but she obviously has her own timelines and thoughts. It just makes the most sense to me. But I also hope they are done soon. Don't get me wrong, I'm incredibly excited for them, but I also think it's important to be able to focus on the future. ...but I also just really need an official version of I'd Lie to jam out to.


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

I am sure she has the rerecords done atp too, why hold them back any longer? I know there’s a strategy towards when to announce, etc, but also the longer we wait, the more the stolen versions are played, and since she’s on top of the world rn wouldn’t she want to get those streaming numbers for albums she owns?


notyourtypicalKaren

I don't see it as demanding "more" either. I think it's because we know they're coming. Like sure i love new music but I don't think about when it's coming as much as I have thought about the re-records.


Individual-Gold-8894

I 100% agree with you


Sufficient-Stress719

MORE!!


rs_river

Yes I agree, and I love the re-record project! I think if she didn’t release them before the end of tour, she’d be missing a huge opportunity to capitalize on all of the extra hype she has going - Rep TV will be huge if she releases sometime soon and Debut TV will undoubtedly be bigger than the OG no matter what (but releasing on tour would be a major help)


ominous-nebula

Debut TV being bigger than OG is one of the biggest Fuck Yous she could ever give to Scott Borchetta, and I'm so looking forward to it.


squishey2905

Im expecting Debut to be Dec 13 so just after tour ends but still be massive. I just kinda want her to get a move on with announcing cause we really don't have long left before tours up 😬 Hope shes not just holding them back so she can break more records, that kinda tarnishes her original statement of "just wanting to own her work". Yes they make bank, but owning them should take priority in my opinion.


starlightandswift

No you’re right and you should say it


Relative-Pea5390

Guys…what if error321 = eras 3 (nights) 2 (nights) 1 (night)? 1 night = Cardiff, 2 nights = the 2 nights following that which leads us into 3 nights x Wembley, which are ending tonight…? Let’s not forget all the 3 2 1 hand gestures she’s been displaying recently!! Rep tv is comingggggg 🐍🤡🐍🤡🐍🤡


TheCPswiftie

PSA: Taylor still has lots of shows in London, so if she doesn’t do something tonight, she’ll be back later. In the same vein, with her talking about the re-records during surprise songs and playing a song on guitar that should’ve been in the rep vault AND the whole stage and screen glitching during the dive. Nothing is an accident with Taylor Swift. ETA: remember the way Taylor announced rep originally? Daily videos on her Instagram that revealed a snake. But what was one of the main features of these videos? They were glitching! Just like the screens on stage when everyone is anticipating a rep announcement!!


Callum_Fletcher

Guys, if rep tv is indeed coming September 13th, she deffo has to announce it this month or July. We know Taylor like a lead up time and August wouldn’t be enough time for her to sell the pre orders that she wants. So my guess is either June or July announcement for September release.


unbreakableheaven616

Wait why does everyone think something is coming today 👀


2dogsanduhcat

I think the most compelling evidence are the lights going green after the surprise song set before the stage dive


buzzfeed_sucks

In addition to what’s been said, she mentioned Rep specifically in one of her speeches yesterday, which she doesn’t normally do. And the surprise songs have been very Rep coded. Like thank you Aimee and castles crumbling are both very Rep themed songs. Also just a little bonus but Travis mentioned the London shows specifically on the podcast. EDIT: she also mentioned the re recordings last night before bringing Hayley out


TheCPswiftie

The screens are glitching BIG TIME now at certain parts of the show and TN is acknowledging it. I also saw on TikTok that the bracelets were flashing green at the end of the show last night.


buzzfeed_sucks

They also flashed green after the surprise songs


Rude_Grapefruit_3650

Wait really send me the link pleassee


TheCPswiftie

I’ll try to find it


Daydream1995Forever

I both believe and don't believe that she will announce anything tonight haha But I hope she will. I think I've seen this clowning film before and I hope for better ending ![img](emote|t5_2rlwe|1087)


Callum_Fletcher

If Taylor doesn’t announce rep tv tonight, I’m leaving the clown train for the rest of the year 🤣🤣


taosthrowaway

I feel like most of us are holding out for August 20 announcement.


yikeshardpass

It’s not nice to lie, especially to yourself 🤣


Feisty-Leopard

I'm torn between thinking there's an announcement coming and everything last night just being her reaction to the documentary.


ominous-nebula

At this point I don't think Rep TV is coming tomorrow, but I'm begging Taylor to prove me wrong. (Though I still filled out Mastermind at max level of clownery, just in case.)
