Is Taylor Swift about to drop TS12? Mysterious countdown stirs fan theories

Is Taylor Swift about to drop TS12? Mysterious countdown stirs fan theories

Express Tribune2 days ago
Taylor Swift has ignited a frenzy of speculation among fans, as her team, Taylor Nation, posts what many believe is a cryptic countdown hinting at a major announcement.
Beginning on July 18, Taylor Nation began spotlighting Swift's previous albums in order, starting with her 2006 self-titled debut, followed by Fearless, Speak Now, and Red, each accompanied by coordinated listening parties.
Swifties, known for decoding the singer's famous 'Easter eggs,' are confident this marks a countdown to her highly anticipated 12th studio album—tentatively dubbed TS12—or possibly an Eras Tour documentary. Taylor Nation's use of a mysterious new crest in promotional graphics and unreleased merchandise has only fueled rumors of a new era.
Some believe Swift may be preparing to release Reputation (Taylor's Version) or drop unreleased 'vault tracks' tied to the original album. Subtle color edits to tribute images and the timing of upcoming listening parties also align with the theory that a Reputation-centric announcement is imminent.
Others are more skeptical, suspecting a merch drop rather than a music release. Given past experiences of fan disappointment, some are bracing for a simpler reveal, like a new cardigan or collector's item.
Still, with the countdown steadily progressing and Swift's history of strategic rollouts, many are convinced something major is brewing. Whether it's a new album, a re-release, or a behind-the-scenes film, fans are watching closely—refreshing feeds, decoding clues, and preparing for Swift's next move.

Taylor Swift sends homemade sourdough bread with handwritten note to Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco

Taylor Swift marked Selena Gomez's 33rd birthday with a personal gift — a basket featuring homemade sourdough bread and a scented candle. The thoughtful gesture was shared by Benny Blanco on Instagram, capturing attention for its warm and playful details. Photo: Instagarm The basket included a sticker that read 'Homemade sourdough' and a handwritten note addressed 'For Selena + Benny,' signed 'Love, Taylor.' Another note added a clever touch: 'It's a loaf story,' a nod to Swift's well-known 2008 hit 'Love Story.' Swift, 35, has been friends with Gomez for years. The two were recently seen together in an Instagram photo Gomez posted on July 20, reflecting on what she called 'the most beautiful year' of her life. The image showed them sitting together in a room filled with balloons, celebrating the milestone. Known for her love of baking, Swift has previously shared treats with those around her. In May, she made Pop-Tarts for Travis Kelce's photo shoot team. Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid also revealed in 2024 that Swift once baked for the team's offensive linemen, making pastries to help her bond with the group. Blanco, Gomez's fiancé since December 2024, is also known for food-themed gestures. Earlier this year, he surprised Gomez with a Valentine's Day gift involving a bathtub filled with queso and a chip trail leading to a message that read 'I heart you.' Swift's bread and message offer a quieter moment of affection and creativity, fitting for a birthday celebration rooted in genuine friendship.

Taylor Swift celebrates Selena Gomez's birthday as Francia Raisa fuels feud rumors

Pop superstar Taylor Swift made a surprise appearance at Selena Gomez's 33rd birthday celebration in Los Angeles, turning heads with a throwback-themed look. The intimate event, held at the historic Roosevelt Hotel, also included Gomez's fiancé Benny Blanco and a few close friends. The birthday bash comes just weeks after Swift and Travis Kelce made their red carpet debut at Tight End University. Swift, who's remained close to Gomez since their early double-date days with the Jonas brothers, flew in from Nashville to attend the celebration. Fans quickly flooded social media with photos of the duo — affectionately nicknamed 'Taylena' — praising their enduring friendship. The Instagram post by Gomez featuring Swift sparked viral buzz, especially given the timing. Just hours earlier, Gomez's former best friend and kidney donor, Francia Raisa, posted a behind-the-scenes video from 'Celebrity Family Feud' with Justin Bieber's new love song 'Daisies' playing in the background. Bieber later reshared it to his stories, causing fans to speculate about the state of Raisa and Gomez's once-close relationship. While Raisa insisted the song choice was unintentional and focused her caption on the charity she supported, online sleuths saw it as subtle shade — especially since 'Daisies' is dedicated to Hailey Bieber. The contrast between Swift's public support and Raisa's potentially pointed post has reignited feud rumors, adding drama to an otherwise joyful occasion.
