Why Is Taylor Swift's New Era Orange?
We're still coming down from Taylor Swift's almost two hour appearance on New Heights, and honestly there's a lot to parse through. The top notes? Taylor gushed about Travis Kelce, revealed The Life of a Showgirl tracklist, chatted about buying her masters, and exposed her easter egg secrets. But she also explained why she chose orange—specifically "Portofino Orange" as the official color for her new era. "I've just always liked it, Jason," Tay told Jason Kelce. "It feels like kind of energetically how my life has felt. And this album is about what was going on behind the scenes in my inner life during this tour, which was so exuberant and electric and vibrant." The Grammy-winner also spoke about THE orange door she left through during the final Eras Tour show, which fans have been speculating about forever. "I would leave the stage every night going down the elevator lift. That's how every single Eras Show ended, except for one, except for the last one, where I exited through a door, an orange door to be specific," Taylor said. "And that actually was an Easter egg. Basically, the reason why I chose to exit that way is because I kind of wanted to give a little subliminal hint to the fans that I may be leaving the Eras Tour era, but I was also entering a new era... I was pretty happy that they noticed that. I was like, trained them well." More from Tay's debut podcast episode below!

Taylor Swift Explains Why She Chose Orange for Her 'The Life of a Showgirl' Era
THE RUNDOWN Taylor Swift revealed the release date and 12-song tracklist for The Life of a Showgirl during her New Heights appearance this evening. She also demystified one other choice she made for her new era: its color. Jason Kelce, Travis Kelce's the older brother and New Heights co-host, asked Swift why she picked orange. 'I've just always liked it, Jason,' she responded. 'It feels like kind of energetically how my life has felt. And this album is about what was going on behind the scenes in my inner life during this [Eras] Tour, which was so exuberant and electric and vibrant.' She told Jason and her boyfriend, Travis, that she started hinting at her new era during her final concert when she exited through an orange door. 'I was pretty happy that [my fans] noticed that,' she said. 'I was like, trained them well.' She explained the symbolism of that choice: 'I would leave the stage every night going down the elevator lift. That's how every single Eras Show ended, except for one, except for the last one, where I exited through a door, an orange door to be specific. And that actually was an Easter egg. Basically, the reason why I chose to exit that way is because I kind of wanted to give a little subliminal hint to the fans that I may be leaving the Eras Tour era, but I was also entering a new era.' Earlier in the episode, Swift explained how she approaches Easter eggs—and why they never point to her life outside of work. 'The art of the Easter egg is that there's do's and don'ts, right?' she said. 'Like, I'm never going to plant an Easter egg that ties back to my personal life. It's always going to be towards music I'm coming up with, something I have coming up, a plan I have coming together. Something that you don't know I'm saying for a specific reason that you'll hear later, and you'll go back and be like, 'Oh my god.'' She added that she's drawn to numerology, saying, 'I love math stuff. I love dates.' She pointed out that even she and Travis, whose jersey number is 87, have a special numeric connection: her favorite number, 13, and 87 add up to 100. They're 'numbers that have a specific significance,' she said. Watch the full episode below:
