Nobody is going to like this but I know exactly when and how Taylor swift is going to come out. Is she gay in this scenario where she comes out? Not necessarily. Okay. 20-35 years from now america elects its first gay president. Taylor swift is a spry 54-69. Probably it’s Pete if he plays his cards right. IMMEDIATELY on the heels of this Taylor swift comes out. The point: the ONLY world where Taylor swift has a Coming Out is a world under the rule of a gay American president. Now for the details. Here’s what happens. President elect Pete butigieg wins the general election. Posts victory photos on his Instagram. Taylor reposts them with a snip of miss Americana playing (we paint the town blue)
With a text overlay that says proud to be a voter today 🌈. No further context. After this. She starts promoting re-records of early albums, definitely lover at least, she uses the word retrospective in interviews about this, talks about how young she was and the pressure she was under and the massive PR machine etc, and how she feels she’s at a good point in her life to revisit these in a more authentic way. When she tours all of these old albums there are 1-3 songs per set list where she changes he pronouns to she. Is she gay when she does this? Odds are 50/50

Different Paths | Jack Hughes
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
summary: 5 times Jack and your paths ran parallel to each other and the one time they finally became perpendicular.
song: Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince
request: yes/no
warnings: none.
word count: 1.61k
authors note: this is officially the end of the 150 celly! I struggled to write this one but I’m very happy with where it ended up. Thanks for all of the love and support that it’s been given and we’ve only just gotten started.
Tumblr media
His brother’s best friend was all Jack was never meant to see you as.
Luke had always been your best friend, you were like tweedle-dee and tweedle-dumb whenever you were around each other. The friendship started when you were four and it was around a similar time that your feelings for Jack begun.
Of course though at that age they were simply because a pretty boy looked at you.
1.
Luke and you were in the kitchen as you ate the berries that Ellen had cut up for you two. Jack walked in with some of his friends from hockey as it caused you to grow nervous “hey Luke,” the middle Hughes boy had a grin on his face as he realised that he could screw with his brother. You turned pink as Jack locked eyes with you, it shouldn’t have been something you were okay with but the older Hughes boy always caused your heart rate to increase.
You smiled “h-hi Jack,” the boy sent you a wink as he stuck his hand into Luke’s container “mom!” Luke groaned as he watched his brother take half of his fruit.
Jack laughed as he shoved the sweet fruit into his mouth “get your own fruit!” The youngest Hughes boy added as he wasn’t impressed.
A soft voice left your lips “you can have some of mine Jack.” You offered as you held out your container with a smile.
The middle Hughes boy couldn’t help it when his heart felt warm, you were always just so sweet “no thanks sweets.” He shook his head as he ruffled his hand in your hair,
For now Luke was going to have to sit there and watch the way his best friend looked at his brother.
2.
Quinn was like the big brother you never had, he always knew what to say and when to say it to you.
That’s what brought you on the couch as you told him about all of your life worries.
You should have felt stupid as jealously coarsed through your veins at the thought of Jack with that girl from down the road. It was stupid, yes you knew it was but as you could hear her laughs from the other room you almost wanted to scream “I know it’s crazy,” you mumbled as you crossed your arms slouching back into the couch cushions.
It was tough trying to remain calm “it’s not crazy at all,” Quinn shook his head as he placed a kiss on your temple.
Jack had seen the whole thing go down as he was meant to get himself and his new friend a drink. As much as he appreciated how comfortable you felt with Quinn he just wished that you’d be like that with him.
The way you were an open book with his older brother made him long for a day when he could be like that with you, even with something a little more.
3.
You must have fifteen at the time, everyone was back in the lake house just how they were every summer “you coming or what?” Quinn called out as you had been soaking in the sunshine as you lay in your swimsuit “where to?” You furrowed your eyebrows as you got up and held your hand up to your forehead to block the sunlight.
Trevor let out a low whistle as he saw yours bounce in the bikini top that you were in “stop looking at her like that,” Jack sent the older boy a glare as he joined in the watch party.
Puberty had truly hit you like a truck over the last year. Your breasts had gone up two cup sizes, your waist was now more pronounced as your ass was rounded.
Jack knew it was wrong of him to see you in the light that he was, but he simply couldn’t help it “don’t be jealous cause you didn’t say it first.” Trevor warned as he shrugged smirking as you walked onto the boat “got a space next to me for ya sweets,” he offered as he patted the cushion next to him.
Luke gagged as he heard the shameless flirting come from his lips “I’ll sit with Luke.” You shook your head “thanks though Trev,” Jack felt like the Cheshire Cat when you sat in between the two boys.
The middle Hughes smiled as you looked at him “hi,” your own smile was now clear as you had also just lost your braces just weeks before the lake house.
His hand danced over your knee “hey sweets.” Jack had given you the nickname because you always had a sweet tooth, Trevor was the first one who chose to steal it.
4.
Just like always you were dragged along to watch Jack play hockey, it was your families Friday night tradition as you were always in the crowd to watch him play.
Luke had his arm around your shoulder as the two of you made your way into the players area “I’m gonna go say hi to them,” Luke explained as he gave you a soft squeeze before he walked over to his coaches.
You weren’t left for long though as Jack found you “hey sweets,” he smiled as he held his arms out.
He was still sweaty as he was in his gear and still in his skates “like seeing you this tall,” you joked as you let out a laugh.
The boy scoffed “I’m always tall,” he mumbled as he furrowed his eyebrows.
Everyone watched on with a sense of curiosity as you reached up to brush some of the hair out of his face “keep telling yourself that,” an amused smirk spread across your face.
Ellen knew all about your crush on her son, it was hard not to. The way your eyes lit up when you saw him, or how your cheeks would grow hot whenever he’d touch you. She also knew that her son felt similar to you because of the lingering glances that were always sent to and from each of you. It was amusing how clueless Luke was as he never seemed to notice how this was the worst kept secret that you two had.
5.
The big day for you and Luke had finally come. You two were officially graduates from high school. Since you arrived at school that morning you hadn’t seen Luke because you were both so apart from each other in terms of your last name.
So naturally when the ceremony ended you both ran back to your families who had been sat together “woah there sweets,” Jack smiled as you bumped into his back.
Your cheeks turned pink “sorry Jack,” you were quick to apologise as you brushed your hair out of your face,
The boy hooked his fingers under your jaw “I’m proud of you,” he confessed as he softly pinched your chin “high honours and all,” he added as his fingers brushed over the scarfs that you had gotten.
A toothy grin formed on your face “‘m more than just a pretty face,” you joked as a soft laugh fell from your lips.
His reaction mimicked yours “you have been,” Jack mumbled as you practically melted into his touch.
“Y/n!” Luke called out totally unaware of the sight in front of him as you whipped your head around.
It was like clockwork, you ran into Luke’s arms as you tackled him in a hug.
That was a constant reminder that Luke was always going to be first in your life.
+1
You always enjoyed laying on the boat as it was still docked. It gave you place to simply just think, and the boat rocking in the water was always soothing “thought I’d find you here.” Jack smiled as he jumped onto the boat.
The quietness that you loved was now gone, not that you were complaining though as you patted the cushion next to you “didn’t know you were looking for me,” you mumbled as you had almost fallen asleep so you let out a yawn.
It brought a chuckle from his lips “don’t tell me I’m boring you already?” He joked as he watched you shake your head.
Jack grew comfortable in his seat next to you “you’d never bore me,” you confessed as you shook your head.
His hand moved to your knee as he grew nervous. It was a feeling that Jack wasn’t used to usually, it was something he only grew to know about when it came to you.
It would have made you melt if you knew the way he thought about you. Your heart was full in that very moment, despite the fact that Luke was so far away. In fact maybe that’s what made you feel at ease, it made you not feel as guilty about your feelings for the boy in front of you.
The air around you two was dense as the tension could have been cut “what are you thinking about?” You asked as you turned to face him, your lips dangerously close to his.
He smiled “thinking about kissing you,” Jack confessed as he let his filter get thrown out of the window.
You giggled as a grin came across your face “thinking you should do it then,” you could barely get that statement out of your mouth before Jacks lips were on your own. Your sweet cherry lipgloss invaded his taste buds as he let his hand move to the back of your neck not wanting to lose you just yet as he let out a groan pulling you onto his lap.
“Always knew my sweets would taste so good.”

You grin when you hear the loud bass of music coming from the Charger as it pulls onto the field. Grayson, your boyfriend hops out of the car, wide smile on his perfect face.
You giggle and take off, dropping your pom poms and running into his strong arms, as he lifts you up.
“What’s up baby?” He asks against your ear, and you giggle again before pouting.
“Missed you these last couple of days…how’s your training going?” You ask as he puts you down and he crosses his arms with a cocky grin.
“I mean, it’s going fucking good! Just can’t wait for the damn season to start.” He says, excited and you smile.
“We have a long summer before then.” You say simply and he nods.
“A long, hard summer. How’s your pom pom throwing and girl catching practice going?” He asks with a goofy grin, and you playfully push him.
“You’re so silly! But it was going well until you showed up and started distracting me.” You say, grinning up at him and he shrugs his shoulders.
Your best friend, Olivia, walks up behind you two with her hands on her hips.
“What are you even here for anyways?” She asks and he dramatically leans against his car.
“Well, since I’m the all-powerful, very famous and talented future quarterback for the biggest college in the state…I just thought I should invite my very pretty and talented girlfriend to this super awesome college party tonight.” He says, voice tinted with a drawl in a dramatic way, and you squeal.
It’s not like you haven’t been to a couple of small-town college parties before, but Grayson wasn’t lying- he truly is the one of the most famous football players in the state, already on the road for college football fame before his first official college game could even start. Not to mention, the university was huge and super freaking famous because of sports, so you definitely had a reason to be excited.
“Wow, that’s so cool! Thanks for inviting me.” You chirp, happily hugging him and he chuckles.
“I couldn’t show up to the hottest party of the year without the hottest girl by my side.” He says and you smile at him before turning to Olivia.
“Okay…practice is so canceled.” You say and she gasps, putting her pom poms on the ground.
“You can’t be serious! We need to whip these girls into shape or they’re gonna be a mess when we leave for college…you can’t cancel the rest of practice!” Olivia complains with a whine, and you fold your arms in fake annoyance.
“I mean, we need time to get ready since it’s almost six already.” You say and her jaw drops.
“What do you mean ‘we’?” She asks and you smile coyly at her.
“There’s no way I’m going to that party without you…girl let’s ditch this practice.” You say, pleading a little bit and she rolls her eyes. 
“Fine, I can never say no to you. Losers, go home, the rest of practice is canceled!” She calls out, and the rest of the cheerleaders begin to disperse, grabbing their things.
You both walk back towards Grayson, who’s still leaning against his car.
“Fancy giving us a ride?”
Tumblr media
Your hair is put up into a pretty ponytail, a few misplaced hair gracing your forehead. Your lips are pronounced from the cherry red lipstick, and when the car finally parks, you turn to the back where Olivia and another friend of Grayson’s sits.
“Do I look pretty?” You ask, a shy smile on your face when Olivia gives you a thumbs up.
“Always! Come on girl, let's go.” She says, and you both get out of the car. 
The warm, summer air hits your skin like a kiss, and you pull down your mini skirt and slightly cropped t-shirt. Grayson and his friend, Jack finally get out of the car, and Grayson wraps his arm around your shoulders as you begin to walk towards the steps of the frat house. Outside, there’s crowds of people outside, smoking, drinking and talking, and Grayson notices a few familiar faces as he stops to talk to them.
“Gray…I’m gonna head inside, get a soda or something.” You inform him, and he barely even nods at you. You walk inside by yourself, the loud music, sounds and smells hitting you. You immediately try to push your way into the kitchen, trying to find something other than shitty alcohol. In the corner of your eye, there’s a girl leaning up against the counter, red solo cup in her hand. She’s…pretty, in a masculine way; sporting a short, mullet-like haircut. She’s wearing a wife beater and a red button up, the sleeves rolled up to show off her toned arms and intricate tattoo.
As you survey her, her eyes meet yours, and a weird feeling flows over you. You break eye contact and bend down, dipping your hand into a cooler to pull out a cold water. As you start to stand up straight, you feel a presence behind you, and you whip around, startled as your face to face with an unknown guy.
“Nice panties.” The guy snickers, and your face heats up. You start to speak, but your words come out in a jumbled mess, so you just ignore him and push past the guy, but his hand yanks your arm back.
“Hey, bitch, I’m talking to you, don’t walk away from me.” He says, and your body grows cold as you try to yank your arm back.
“I don’t want to talk, I have a boyfriend, please let go!” You whimper in pain, and the guy grips harder, before stepping closer to you.
“Yeah? And where’s he at? ‘Cause he’s pretty fuckin’ stupid for leaving his pretty little girlfriend here all by herself.” He mutters and you yelp and try to yank back again. “Want me to take you home? I’ll treat you so good.” He whispers, and you don’t notice the pretty girl move from her place on the counter because you’re so fucking terrified.
“Back the fuck off, dude. She said she’s gotta boyfriend.” A raspy, low, but feminine voice says, jolting you out of your fear.
“And what are you? The boyfriend? Get the fuck outta here, we’re talking.” The guy says, voice gruff and the girl comes from around the Island, leaning against the counter. As she leans against the counter, you can see a small metallic glint peeking out of her pocket.
“Don’t be fucking stupid, asshole. Leave the girl alone.” She says lowly, a dangerous tilt in her voice and the guy finally let's go of your arm, to your relief and you back up against the wall as you watch him step to the girl.
“Or what? You gonna hit me?” He asks sarcastically and she smoothly reaches into her pocket and flips out a switchblade and your eyes widen.
“C’mon, dude. It wasn’t even that serious.” The guy says frantically and the girl chuckles, before closing the blade.
“Hmm, yeah, that’s what I thought. You better get out of here…” She says, and the threat hangs in the air, even as she slips the knife back in her pocket. The asshole walks away tensely, sneaking another gross look at you before stepping away finally.
You exhale heavily, feeling the anxiety melt off of you as he leaves, and you finally meet the girl’s eyes again.
“Thanks…for that.” You utter softly and she smiles, a crooked smile, before tilting her head at you.
“It’s nothin’, the dude was a creep.” She says simply and you nod, twiddling with your perfectly manicured fingers.
“You alright?” She questions and you sigh and shake your head. There are a million things running through your head right now, and you’re completely perturbed by that creepy ass guy so you’re definitely not feeling the party anymore.
“Do you wanna…do you want to get some air with me? I came here with my boyfriend, but I haven’t seen him since we came and…I feel weird.” You ramble nervously, and she brushes one of the many stray auburn hairs from her face, face unreadable.
“Yeah, why not.” She says, shrugging her shoulders, walking past you and you follow behind her like a little puppy.
Once you're outside, she props herself against the hot brick wall, and you watch her as she reaches into the pocket of her button up to pull out a joint. She wordlessly lights it and places it between her scarred, pink lips; you watch her as if you’re under a spell, looking away when she finally exhales the smoke and glances at you.
“Wanna hit?” She offers and you awkwardly chuckle and look down, embarrassed.
“I don’t- I’ve never…smoked before or anything like that. I wouldn’t know how.” You say, voice quiet and she walks over to where you’re standing and holds the joint out. 
“It’s okay, I’ll tell you how to do it. It’ll calm you down.” She says and you blink up at her. She gently moves your chin up, before tapping on it. “Open…and you just breathe it in, real easy. Then you hold it, like you’re taking a deep breath, and exhale it out.” She whispers, placing the joint in your open mouth, to which you struggle, but manage to follow her instructions, successfully taking a hit of the joint.
“Atta girl…” She smiles, before taking the joint from your lips and putting it between her own again, looking in your eyes as she does so, and for some reason, it makes you feel dizzy; or maybe that’s just the weed talking.
Then, the back door opens, revealing Grayson, who’s eyes widen.
“Shit, Ellie, you got my girlfriend high?” He complains and Ellie (?) shrugs her shoulders.
“We were just talking dude, can’t have just anybody smoking my shit.” Ellie says casually, blowing smoke out and Grayson has a look on his face that you can’t decipher.
“Talking about what?” He questions, coming to pull your arm gently, his body and jaw tense.
“Just small talk. I came out here for a smoke, and she came out here for some fresh air…nothing deep or serious. Anyways, I’m heading out, I got some shit to handle.” Ellie says, meeting your eyes and giving you a small smile before heading out of the door. When she’s finally gone, Grayson drops your hand and turns to face you, eyebrows furrowed.
“You shouldn’t hang around people like her, Y/n. Ellie’s not good company to keep.” He says hardly and you stare at him in confusion.
“It was just one small conversation…and why not? She’s just some girl.” You say, a little irritated but intrigued.
“She’s a low life drug dealer, that’s what she is…and she’s a freak and I don’t want to catch you hanging around her anymore, got it?” He mutters angrily and your lips move into a hard line.
“Yeah, got it, Grayson...fine. Can we go now, please?” You ask, voice tired, and he swings his arm over your shoulders.
“What? No, are you insane? The party just freaking started.” He says with a chuckle, leading you back into the party, much to your dismay.
This was going to be a long night.

pairing : julien baker x popstar!reader
cw : all fluff! one sexual reference but that’s all
Tumblr media
you and julien first met and an award show a few years ago. she and lucy were invited by phoebe to attend with her. you had just won a bunch of awards for your latest album, reputation. phoebe dragged them to go talk to you while she congratulated you. julien was just standing there, starstruck and staring at you. you noticed her state and were confused, but still introduced yourself to her
julien was standing a bit behind lucy, who was also a bit shocked but not as much as julien, to try to hide herself. you noticed her stare and turned your attention to the other two. you were taken aback because julien was even more gorgeous in person. utterly handsome.
“oh my god, i’m so sorry i haven’t introduced myself yet. i’m y/n!” you exclaimed excitedly and went to give lucy a hug. the tall woman laughed and congratulated you on your awards just won. you thanked her and turned to give julien a hug next.
you embraced her warmly, “it’s great to finally met you, julien. i’ve loved your music for so long.” she stiffened into the hug when you said that, not even expecting you to know who she was.
you both pulled away and she said, “oh god— thank you so much. you’re like… fucking amazing. i can’t believe you even know who i am.” you laughed like she just said something hilarious. “how could i not know who you are? phoebe never shuts up about you two and, well, your lyricism is amazing. i’ve actually taken a lot of inspiration from it. i’m a huge fan.” she could have died right there.
you four talk for a couple more minutes before you have to get back to your table. before you leave, you get both lucy and julien’s phone numbers and hug them both one last time. but not before kissing julien’s cheek and winking at her. she just stands there with your lipstick stain on her face while her friends are laughing at her.
after that night, julien couldn’t get you out of her head. you couldn’t get her out of yours either. about a week after you first met, you texted her and asked if she wanted to get coffee. she responded in like 0.2 seconds and said she’d loved to
you both went to a small coffee shop with hats and sunglasses to protect your identifies, you more than her. you guys talked for hours and the romance progressed from there <3
now into the actual relationship! she’s so supportive of your music and you are of hers. you both bounce lyric ideas off of each other all the time
writing an album dedicated to her <33 (*cough* lover *cough*). she literally tears up when you play her the songs. like just imagine sitting on your bed while you strum your guitar and sing love songs softly to her in the middle of the night :(( the ultimate dream
she makes multiple appearances in your documentary, 'miss americana.' you talk all about how she was such a breath of fresh air and how you were so honored to have the opportunity to love her. she gets so flustered behind the camera when you said that and gave you a giant kiss after
you were supposed to go on a tour for lover, but it ended up being canceled due to covid. instead, julien helps you write folklore and evermore (taylor and joe vibesss). you obviously give her writing credits so when folklore wins a grammy, she does too. it's her first grammy and she's so happy it was because of your work
when you win the grammy for folklore you extensively thank her in your acceptance speech and go on a whole rant about how much you love her. she's just sitting at your table giving you air kisses. you almost want to pull her on the stage with you, but you don't want to embarrass her
imagine just being holed up in the house during the pandemic and just writing songs with her for months. you would have thought you would have gotten bored, but she could never bore you. every day was special if it was spent with her
writing 'invisible string' about her <333 and her being a feature on 'exile' and 'evermore' (sorry bon iver). her voice just works so well with those songs
now onto your eras tour! midnights was a huge success and so naturally you were going to go on tour for the album. julien gave you the idea to go on tour for all of your albums since midnights was your 10th one. you loved the idea and so did your team, so the plan was put into place
you had originally asked her to be one of your openers, but she suggested you ask phoebe instead. you didn't know why she declined but she was secretly too nervous to play in front of that many people 😭 phoebe took you up on your offer with so much excitement! and of course asking muna too!! they're quickly become some of your closest friends. also going on their podcast, gayotic, and just talking about julien the whole time <3
julien helps you decide what songs to put on the setlist. you take literally all of her suggestions. she also watches you practice your chorography for all the different songs and says it's all amazing (everything you do is amazing in her opinion)
when the start of the tour comes around, she's at every show possible. even with boygenius's tour going on, she still makes the maximum effort to go see you perform. through jet lag or sickness, it doesn't matter
singing directly to her during lover when she's in the vip section. she gives you literal heart eyes back and fans love to film her reaction
she blushes so hard when you perform 'vigilante shit'... you make sure to give her a private performance that night ;)
she goes with you to every award show and event possible. at some point, no one even had to guess who your plus one was going to be. it was always her. and matching your dress to her suit is so cute
you are known to be quite the schemer when it comes to your music, dropping hints and easter eggs in almost everything you do. julien quickly becomes part of the fun and also teases your fans during interviews, etc
she just thinks it's so amazing that a queer artist can hold so much fame and love throughout the world <3 and she's definitely not biased because she's your girlfriend...

JAMES POTTER X SWIFTIE!READER
When you first start dating he is so fucking confused
Poor baby
Obviously he knew who Taylor Swift was, but he always thought she was just a popular singer
For a good month he thought she was actually a cult leader
Was planning how to get you out of said cult
You had to explain to him that you where in fact NOT part of a cult after he set up an intervention for you and Sirius
because Sirius is definitely your swiftie bestie which just confuses James to no end
"Y/N, I love you b-"
"I love you too Jamie 🥰"
"Thank you love, but I cannot sit back and let you and my best mate, my brother, let yourselfs be consumed by this cult"
"Cult?"
"I know you probably don't realise it now but this is for your own good. I will NOT let Taylor Swift control you like this!"
You and Sirius have a good laugh because....
He actually thought you where in a cult
You explain that you are not in a cult, you just really really like Taylor Swift
He isn't fully convinced it isn't a cult because you literally seem to know everything about this women
You point out that he knows basically everything about his favourite quidditch player
Moment of realization.......
After that slight mistake he trys to learn about Taylor for you
His favourite song? Shake It off
Is he aware that it's literally her most popular song?
Yes
Does he care?
Not even a little bit, he likes dancing to it so it's his favourite
Spent like a year trying to find a folklore cardigan for you ❤️
He got it......
His favourite ex is Taylor Lautner and his favourite era is 1989
Is signed up to the Taylor Swift store updates/newsletter and checks his email religiously
New special edition of a vinyl you already own?
Consider it yours
New Cardigan dropped?
Ready to be unpacked when you get home
Era's tour tickets?
This man was in that Ticketmaster line for HOURS
Him & Remus where both trying to get tickets for you & Sirius
Good boyfriends
He felt like he was going into WWIII
Him & Remus where both at the dining table with enough water and snack to last them all day
They where not leaving that dining table until they had tickets
And they got them!
When he told you he got you tickets? He would go through that Ticketmaster line all over again just to see you that happy
When he found out he could DRESS UP for the show?
He was planning basically everyday for MONTHS
Wanted you and him and Remus and Sirius to match but Taylor only has 3 cats.....
So instead you two where Miss Americana and The Heartbreak prince
Did he think it was a bit basic? Kinda but you both looked nice and he got to trade bracelets with loads of people so he was happy
He happily listens to you talk about everything happening to Taylor currently
Disgusted that people showed up at Jack Antonoffs wedding just to see Taylor?
He's right there with you, muttering and scoffing about how awful they are
Complaining about Ashley?
He doesn't know who that is but he will LEARN GODDAMNIT AND HE WILL COMPLAIN ABOUT HER TOO
Overall when he gets over his thoughts of it being a cult he is a super supportive swiftie boyfriend

miss americana & the heartbreak prince // james potter
⋆ ࣪.      ⁺⑅     ⋰˚     *.゚    .˳⁺⁎˚     ˚⁎⁺˳ .    ༺ ˖
james potter x fem! reader, royalty au, fluff
wc: 1.2k
in which prince james finds his princess at the ball
it's you and me, that's my whole world, they whisper in the hallways she's a bad, bad girl
a/n: this is rushed as usual but i really wanted to write this idea cause i haven't seen anyone do a royalty!au with james yet! hope you all like it<3 also this is not proofread as usual so i'm sorry for mistakes :)
⋆ ࣪.      ⁺⑅     ⋰˚     *.゚    .˳⁺⁎˚     ˚⁎⁺˳ .    ༺ ˖
the ballroom is as beautiful as it is boring. it's only once a year that the royal family opens the doors to the palace for a ball, and the aristocracy goes mad for it every single time without fail. this year, the celebration marks the spring equinox- magnolia petals scattered across the marble floor, peonies blooming in the palace gardens. gossamer drapes the architecture, the chandelier glinting. the bluebirds in the castle aviary have been singing cheerfully all week. the royal family, typically frugal and stoic, has gone all out for the celebration- and yet not everyone is enjoying it.
 it is not quite midnight, yet the dance floor is pure chaos. so busy, so bustling, that some of society’s most eligible bachelorettes are hiding away. one, to be exact- the most competent of them all. pale half moons in her hair, gown reflecting starlight, lady y/n stands on the balcony, looking out at the night sky. her reputation as the daughter of one of the country’s most esteemed families precedes her- she has not yet received a dance invitation tonight, nor does she hope for one. instead, she she wishes she had brought a book- it would have been most enjoyable. but the balcony will have to do.
the breeze is a nice contrast from the stuffy ballroom, the night air tickling her skin. the pearls adorning her collarbone are cool against her body, and it takes everything in her not to fidget with them nervously. she didn’t want to come- crowds are never fun, but it is her duty, or so her father, the lord, had said in the days leading up to this. but at least she is not a princess, enslaved in societal expectations. what a nightmare that would be.
a commotion arises from the ballroom behind her, but she ignores it, instead focusing on the constellations she's tracing with her fingertip. it’s sure to be the king and queen arriving- fashionably late, of course, to their own party. but she is in the middle of connecting orion’s belt with her fingertip, reaching for the stars when the french doors to the balcony creak open and-
“may i have this dance?”
there he stands. prince james, known for his angelic smile and claim to the crown. the heir to the throne, the rascal of the royal family. y/n’s jaw drops, and she rushes to shut it. “i-”
the prince grins, arching a regal brow. his brown eyes are deep, his skin glowing in the candlelight spilling out of the french door back to the ballroom. she sinks down into a deep curtsy, unsure of the protocol. he laughs a bit, but not unkindly. “you don’t have to do that. curtsy, i mean.”
she stands up quickly, the satin skirt of her gown rustling, awkward and embarrassed. a rosy blush spreads across her cheeks. james thinks she looks beautiful. “i just-” she blurts out at the same time as he says, “don’t worry about it.”
she colors again. he meets her eyes, curious and kind. she’s shy, and even though he’s a prince, james’s social cues are good enough to realize that. “what’s your name?” he asks, his smile accentuating the dimple in his lovely cheek. he might be the prettiest boy she’s ever seen.
she looks the prince up and down, swallowing the nerves. butterflies in her stomach flutter, beating their precious wings, stirring up a whirlwind of thoughts, a warm feeling creeping to her heart. “i’m y/n. pleasure to meet you.”
“i’m james,” he replies, extending a hand. she grasps it, and it’s warm and solid and lovely and she can feel calluses on his palms.
“i know,” she says, voice soft and light. he lets out an exaggerated gasp. “i didn’t know i had a stalker. how on earth did you know my name?”
she smiles, the first genuine one of the night. “must be your ravishing good looks.”
she’s not wrong. he’s known for his glorious curly hair - the lovely smile teasing his lips - and consequently, all the heartbreak that’s ensued from his previous relationships. he’s a prince after all- he can have his pick of the draw, so why is he talking to her? the doubt must be palpable in her eyes, and the prince steps back a bit, sensing the shift in tone. but then he plucks a gardenia from an ornate planter by the balcony railing, sniffing it and offering it up to her, coming closer to her again. carefully, she takes it, stroking the petals delicately. they’re so close he can smell her perfume, sweet vanilla and enchanted roses and water lilies. “thank you,” she breathes, and in that moment it is as if the rest of the world has fallen from her feet, and she is floating on air.
the tension melts from the atmosphere. he is not a prince anymore, just a boy at a ball giving a girl flowers. a sparkle appears in his eye, and the prince- james- gestures towards the interior of the palace.
“i was just wondering if you wanted to dance,” he says, voice husky. “you looked lonely out here. plus, all of those girls are too obsessed with the crown. my mother would highly disapprove if i were to waltz with any of them.”
if he were any other prince, perhaps she might’ve felt pressured to say yes. but he’s warm and comfortable, so why not? she ducks her head in another sort of mock curtsy, letting ringlets of hair cascade over her shoulder. “of course, your majesty.”
“no,” he says firmly, and she recoils a bit at the harshness of the word. but his tone becomes more gentle. “just james. please.”
it’s funny he’s so insistent at this. any other boy would probably jump at the chance to be called things such as sir, your majesty, your royal highness. but not him, apparently. he seems almost uncomfortable with the terms. perhaps being an heir isn’t all it’s cracked up to be- and maybe he’s only known as the heartbreak prince because of the so-called girls chasing after his crown.
“okay, james,” she says finally, and the name tastes good on her tongue. “but- your parents- they’re okay with you dancing? with me, i mean.”
james shrugs, grinning. “my mother’s the one who wanted me to come ask you. she thinks you’re pretty- and so do i.”
surprised, she casts a glance into the ballroom. the queen and king, casually sipping cocktails and chatting with a duke and duchess, are indeed keeping a watchful eye on their son, queen euphemia especially. the star-jewels on her dress glitter, reflecting light from the chandelier, and her aura of regalness is blinding. the king, on the other hand, is simply enjoying the appetizers, glancing around every once in a while.
and so she accepts, taking james’s proffered hand and basking in a glow of happiness as he leads her onto the dance floor. all eyes on them, classical violins begin to play a traditional waltz, and in his sturdy arms, she feels safe. it’s her and him, there’s nothing like this. and who knows? maybe the heartbreak prince isn’t too much of a heartbreaker after all.

Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince
Tumblr media
eddie munson x fem!reader
word count: [2.4k]
warnings: no use of y/n, pure fluff!!!!, crush confessions, pining (not too much discussed), cursing, and mentions of smoking. all credits for taylor swift for writing such an amazing song <3
summary: you and eddie are two very different people...or so it seems so for everyone else. but only you and eddie really know the love you two share, even if it's out of the ordinary. so as you look through the crowd while you're being crowded homecoming queen, it's nice to see the love of your life waiting there...after all, it's been a long time coming.
You’d rather be anywhere but here at this very moment. The distinct sound of the student body talking and cheering amongst themselves at tonight’s annual homecoming game. The marching band playing their instruments while the cheerleaders performed their halftime routine on the outer track field, red dirt flying through the air with every foot stomp. Then suddenly the whistle blew, and the speakers sounded.
They would announce homecoming court .
And here you were, heels sinking into the football turf as the floodlights beamed brightly across the field. Your arms linked with Jason Carvers’, who was crowned homecoming king this year, having won homecoming prince in his freshman year of high school.
On paper, you and Jason would’ve been the perfect couple. He was the star of the Hawkins basketball team, a part of the winning squad that took home this year’s national Indiana High School Basketball league trophy. You were the “good girl,” keeping up your grades, highly involved in extracurricular activities and even becoming vice president of your class year.
But you didn’t like perfect on paper.
You preferred surprisingly simple yet complex to the eyes.
“You look beautiful,” Jason whispered, turning his head to stare at your side profile.
You darted over at him, not bothering to hide your revulsion as you rolled your eyes begrudgingly.
“You shouldn’t be complimenting me when your girlfriend is sitting on the stands…and need I remind you I have a boyfriend?”
Nodding your chin up to the bleachers, you saw Chrissy, pom-poms resting in her lap as she wistfully watched on, the love of her life Jason cozying up in the cold summers’ breeze next to a girl who was clearly disinterested in him.
He scoffed lightly, “She’s not the one standing up here tonight, is she? And if I stand correctly, your boyfriend is nowhere to be found.”
God, he was disgusting, but right about one thing.
Eddie wasn’t here.
He hated big school events like this one. Thought they were totally useless and took away the spotlight from things that mattered like arts, which you definitely agreed with. But you’d hope that since his girlfriend won homecoming court, he’d actually show up, but he didn’t.
“Just keep your hands and comments to yourself, alright?” You snarled through your smiling teeth as you watched some people from the yearbook club approach you with cameras in hand.
A voice from the student body now echoed through the speakers, firstly introducing the underclassmen homecoming court who stepped up. Waving to the crowd of students sat on the bleaches, cheering as they whistled and blew their hand held horns in the air.
You honestly didn’t know how you even won in the first place. It all started as a joke, your friends daring you to run for queen and you’d thought that someone had rigged the voting when the results came in. You had miraculously swept the entire thing.
But you were sure your metal head and his friend Robin in student union had something to do with it. Though you weren’t complaining…school tricks were fun in this case.
“Now please welcome the senior homecoming king and queen!”
You stepped up, right hand coming to wave to the same crowd spotting a few of your friends cheering you on, but you could never miss Eddie, even if he was feet away, watching from the fences with a cigarette hanging from his lips as his hands clapped for you.
“Son of a bitch.” You muttered to yourself with a smitten smile, watching as he winked towards you, knowing he had been caught.
You paid Jason no mind, simply bowing down a bit to allow the poorly made plastic crown, bejeweled with dollar general gemstones, to be rested on your head as one of the volunteers did the same for the jock.
“Congratulations to this year's homecoming court! Please feel free to share a kiss or not with the—”
As Jason was trying to be some sort of fucking comedian, bending down to try to kiss you, you scoffed, dropping his arm and instead, picking up the length of your dress, jogging through the rough ground towards Eddie.
“Hey! Where the hell are you going!” You could hear the whiny voice of Jason’s faltering behind you as all you could do was giggle, getting closer to Eddie, where he hollered loudly.
His arms were held out, immediately hugging you despite the fence that sandwiches the bottom half of your bodies, “There’s my girl,” he whispered against your hair until he pulled away.
You smirked, lightly pushing at his shoulder with a closed fist, “I thought homecoming was for losers?”
He failed to hold back his cheeky smile. “Yeah, but you’re my favorite loser, so I just had to come.” Eddie responded shrewdly as you rolled your eyes, undoing your fists and wrapping them around his back.
“Oh, you’re so clever, aren’t you?” You imitated with an offended tone but couldn’t help the smile continually seeping into your face.
He nodded, giving you a small peck that made up for his half absence.
Neither of you could feel the eyes of everyone staring, but they were. Practically watching every movement between the odd couple, as they shared another sweet kiss and watched the freak hoist his girl up and over the fence. Giggling at how her dress caught onto one of the metal rings, causing it to rip, but paying no real concern as they left the fabric there, blowing against the breeze as they ran off hand in hand into the night sky.
All the while, the king complained in the middle of the football field.
“Where are we off to, my knight in shining leather?” You pestered, kicking your feet up on his dash as he smirked, starting up the engine, keeping his brown orbs on you.
“I was thinking I take you to my castle, we smoke a joint, and I show you how much I adore you.”
Your eyes rolled, but your cheeks couldn’t hide the heat of a red blush and your pearly whites flashing him that smile he loved to see every day.
“You know I’m crazier for you than I was at sixteen.”
He whistled lowly, sending you a wink, “Oh, how could I forget? You had a big fat crush on me back in sophomore year and I practically had to beg you to tell me—”
“Stop!” you yelped it out, trying to forget about your pathetic confession that ultimately led to the start of your and Eddie’s romance.
“Oh, don’t be like that, sweetheart. It was romantic!”
“Stupid Stacy Burke! Does she really think she’s going to win against me?!”
You had thought you were alone in the computer room, using the device to work on your campaign posters so you could hang them up around school tomorrow. You were desperate to win in order to keep your seat as Vice President. Last year it was an easy win for you, but now all of a sudden the dumb Stacy Burke wanted to take your seat just for notoriety.
It made you fume.
“If she thinks she can just buy her votes with cupcakes and muffins, she has got another thing coming!”
You were seething as you pressed print, pushing yourself out of the seat and heading over to the printers in order to get your posters and head back home for the day to prepare for your speech when
“Ohmygod!”
Your scream took Eddie aback, causing him to jump back, holding out his hands as you clasped yours over your heart and mouth.
“Jesus Christ! What the hell are you doing in here!” you ordered loudly, watching as Eddie held something up.
Posters. Specifically for Hellfire.
“I was making recruitment posters for Hellfire.” He shook them, watching as you rose your brow and tilted your head to get a better look at the words printed.
“Hellfire? Never heard of it.”
He sighed, rolling them back up. “It’s new. Finally, got enough members to have an official club.”
“Cool,” you sighed, nodding your head calmly as you attempted to push past him, yet he held his arm out, stopping you.
“Eddie, let me through.” You spoke, moving his arm.
He sighed, reaching into his pocket, pulling out a piece of crumpled paper that he held out. “Stacy really wants your spot, huh?”
Your brows creased together, deliberately taking it from him and unfolding the sheet. And that’s when your blood really started bubbling. Her senseless campaign posters were basically a jab towards you, with a photo of her smiling and a poorly drawn stick figure of you, accentuated with,
“Don’t put a nerd into council! Vote Stacy Burke for Vice President for a tubular Sophomore Year.”
Crumpling the paper once again, you forced past Eddie, going towards the door to tear down all her stupid posters before anyone else could see them, but the metal head called back out to you before you could make it out of the room.
“I already took them all down.” He declared, making you stop in your path, turning back around to see him pointing at the rubbish can right beside you.
There they were, a pile of the crumpled up posters in the bin. There had to be about fifty wads of them in there.
“T-thanks.” You peered back at him as he bowed nonchalantly, the silence being too much to bear in this small room.
You cursed to yourself, crossing your arms across your chest as you stared sharply, “Why did you do that for me?”
“Because it’s the right thing to do?” He snickered obviously, scratching the back of his neck while you didn’t look too convinced.
Eddie was…different than most.
He wasn’t necessarily a loser. Yet he wasn’t a part of the cool clique.
He was just him.
Something that intrigued you since you heard his name and memorized his face. A sort of intrigue which had slowly snowballed itself into an innocent crush. One that had you stealing glances at him in the cafeteria and peering past your lockers to see him saunter through the hallways.
“Well, I appreciate it.” You nodded, giving him a lipped smile, rocking on your soles, focusing your sights on the floor instead of him.
His chuck covered feet slowly entered your view, the heartbeat in your chest beating faster by the minute that it should’ve been a crime.
“I see the way you look at me.” He admitted, nibbling back a smirk, knowing it would only make you embarrassed, and he didn’t want to make you feel that way.
Somehow you caught Eddie’s eyes too.
You were similar in that sense that you weren’t in the cool circle, yet still not a loser that supposedly Stacy Burke thought you were. He knew that people loved to send glares and eye rolls his way, so he got used to the looks.
But yours were different.
He knew it the first time he caught you staring at him during lunch. Eyes soft like pearls with your lip caught between your teeth as you…appreciated the sight before you.
He hated the glares, but he loved the way you looked at him.
“T-the what?”
You tried to seem puzzled, to act as if you didn’t scurry your eyes back to your sad lunch tray once he caught your eyes on him on that random Friday.
“It’s cool,” Eddie assured you, with a grin on his face, like an actual sincere smile that wasn’t to be perceived as cocky. “It’s nice being looked at…by you.”
That made you blush. Immediately giving you away.
“Cool.” You muttered, gawking up at him through your lashes, pulling your hair forward to attempt to crowd your reddening cheeks.
Eddie let out a relaxed huff of breath. “You’re not going to ask if I have a crush on you too?”
“What!” You said it a little too vociferously as he chortled. “I know you like me…it isn’t a bad thing if you do.”
You folded your arms across your chest once more, a little defensive, “Well I didn’t say that…do you like me?”
He shrugged his shoulders, now a smirk plastered on his face, “You tell me if you like me first, then I’ll let you know.”
“How do I know you’re not just trying to embarrass me?” You raised your brows skeptically, and he grinned shrugging his shoulders once more as he stepped closer to you if it was even possible.
“I don’t gain anything from embarrassing you…and I wouldn’t do that, anyway.” He answered, stopping just inches away from you as you met his eyes that looked down at yours.
You took a deep breath, letting the air leave your mouth as you confessed, “I like you.”
He smiled, a blush covering his cheeks now that he didn’t care to hide as he nodded his head and looked behind him out the door, then back to you.
“I like you too…soooo what do you say we hang our posters together, then we can get some ice cream at Scoops and brainstorm how to destroy Stacy Burke’s campaign?”
You couldn’t hide the smile, nor did you try to as you nodded, dashing over to the printer to grab your freshly made posters before trading yours with Eddie’s.
He graciously took them, commending your attention to detail and the photo of your smack dab in the center of the poster. You reached for the roll of tape before jutting your chin out the door.
“C’mon dungeon master, you owe me chocolate cone with extra sprinkles.” You hailed out, already down the hallway as Eddie trailed behind you with a whistle.
“Coming right up, sweets.”
From that day forward, it was you and Eddie against the town of Hawkins, Indiana. The two of you not caring if you were scrutinized or called a crazy for dating the town freak or him being accused of corrupting the vice president of the class.
You and Eddie didn’t play their stupid games.
If anything, you two lived in your own little world. Enjoying the peace on your side while the bad guys always tried to let themselves into the gates that you and Eddie kept locked up just for the two of you to ever know.
If there was one thing that this sad town had right about you and Eddie, it was that you two would runaway together, leaving behind everyone and everything that had ever done you wrong.
So sure, maybe you were the bad bad girl and maybe he was the whispers in the hallways, but it had been a long time coming.
It was just you and him lost in the light.
Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince.

Sorry if this question has been answered a thousand times! But yes, I do really want to know where T was April 29th!!! Can you give more information on this story?
There are previous posts on it in 2016 timeline, song analysis' for I did something bad, and @tameimpala222's post on Calvin Harris' Ole.
Do you really want to know where I was April 29? 
This high infidelity line could be as much to fans as to Calvin. Like Dear Reader, it says to fans how some see Taylor in a narrow idealised way
OK, but what happened?
Set up:
Harry and Kendall started the year with Yachtgate 6 January. Kendall was in Europe and didn’t go to Harry’s birthday party on the 21st and they arrived and left separately Jeff’s birthday 23 January do hendall was over by then. They weren’t seen together for months apart from a pap walk that promoted KUWTK.
Taylor and Calvin had been on pretty rocky ground. There has been rumours that he had been unfaithful, that Taylor was jealous of yachtgate and that Calvin was jealous of that jealousy.
Taylor won Album of the Year on 16 February and in Miss Americana said she felt alone and had no one she could call. (21 Minutes)
Harry was in LA at the same time. He wore this blue Hawaii st Laurent shirt on his 22nd birthday, also the day of the feeling 22 tweet which went viral, Taylor was in LA but not seen. 2 weeks later he wrote Sweet Creature which is a love song, but also references seeding doubt in a love interests' partners mind.
At this time, Calvin also started writing a diss track (Ole) about a guy (Harry) who ignores his GF (Kendall) for someone else (Taylor) who is a fake girlfriend to the subject (Calvin), the video shades Hendall and Haylor.

28 February - 29 April
Harry and Taylor then started hinting at hooking up, or wanting to. On 28 February Taylor looks stunning and alone at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, Harry tweets Elvis lyrics about not being over an ex and posted a colour photo to instagram (it had been B&W since OOTW came out unless he saw Taylor).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Taylor and Calvin posted about the 1 year anniversary a week later and spent 3 days with backgrid in the Bahamas. Harry went back to London and looked grumpy getting a parking ticket that week. :/

But then it seemed back on 25 March when Taylor and Harry return to LA the same day 👀 and are seen around LA separately.
On the 3rd April Taylor and Calvin are hostile at the iHeartRadio awards, blinds they fought in the pap walk.
The end for Tayvin was at Coachella/Bleachella/TIWYCF when Calvin didn't give Taylor credit for This is What you Came for. A year later there was a blind item that TIWYCF was about who Taylor was having an affair with (in hindsight it’s really Haylor), to me this helps explain why it went so bad over it.
Tumblr media
Harry again tweeted Cars lyrics about being with an ex that you love no matter what And then finally, as well known Taylor went to Gigi's birthday party on the 28th, and did not show up for promo for TIWYCF, neither Harry or Taylor are seen on the 29th.
The next Day Harry is still in LA in a walk of shame to a Gym and Calvin goes on Radio to say she isn't working.
Alas it didn't work out for either couple, Tayvis imploded. Harry went to Europe to shoot Dunkirk then record HS1 and Taylor was looking for someone to be with her all the time and publicly move on from the Tayvin disaster. You know the rest.
Tumblr media
For bonus the promo Taylor was a no show was possible this interview with Calvin had Nick Grimshaw, AKA Harry's close friend and long term maker of lighthearted Haylor jokes, in Calvins house on April 29 2016!

Later references
What makes this and interesting comment on Taylors fans thinking they know everything is that it wasn't known.... Were it not for Ole and Kiwi's videos that is!
Later in 2016 Calvin released Ole that references outfits Taylor, Kendall and Harry all wore in this period and Calvin posted to instagram wearing Harry's exact shirt from February.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Harry recreated Taylors look from this party in the protagonist of the Kiwi music video, which refers to when Taylor said at 2015 Oscar’s she was “going home to the cats” and Calvin (prick) "When she's alone, she goes home to a cactus (Uh) In a black dress, she's such an actress"
Tumblr media
And finally, for irony and lols:
On 29 April 2017 (the 1 year anniversary of this high infidelity) Harry got papped wearing the same shirt.
In September Capital FM used the photo Calvin's used to troll Harry and Taylor in an article calling him a 'baller'. Harry has a leaked song from this era, Super Pretty with the line "Said you're happier with that big baller that we both knew growing up"

And it still continues in when Harry's friend Roman Kemp presented Calvin with Harry Styles Bathwater at the 2024 Brits.

Joe Alwyn, the Bowery Gastropub & Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk "reshoots"
A Reddit and Toe-Tumber version of this story is:
Joe was in LA for BLLHW reshoots and was with co-star Garrett Hedlund, who's friends with Caleb Followill who is married to Lily Aldridge who was at Gigi's party where we know Taylor was. There is a pub named the Bowery Gastropub on Sunset and Vine so of course Taylor met Joe there because 6 degrees of separation. It somehow makes sense that Tayvin continued and Hiddleswift happened and that she wrote in the lover journal that Toe started dating 3 months before January.
Issues with this story:
This story hinges on a screenshot from an office assistants LinkedIn claiming to have worked freelance on reshoots for the film for 2 months March and April 2016. If you search the words in the screenshot the Linkedin profile does say that. However if you look at profiles for editors, videographers and producers on the film they all ended mid-2015. Perhaps the freelance office assistant was working on a different film, or listed the wrong task.
Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk had no reshoots. They had no budget for them and shot specifically to avoid them. It was also not shot in LA.
Footage for the film had already been debuted on 16 April 2016. They were definitely not still shooting a low budget film 2 weeks later when it was being screened and was released in November
Joe was in London on 20 March 2016. There is no reason to think Joe was in LA.
Joe and Garrett Hedlund did attend the Met Gala - however as a C/B lister Garrett would not have a plus one, more likely he was Lily's plus one!
Caleb Followill, and his brother and bandmate Nathan Followill go way back with Harry - Nathan has a matching tattoo of the other half of Harry's broken heart tattoo! Harry (and Taylor) were at a Calab Followill's 2015 birthday party when they were last seen together. If the Followill connect/ Bowery gastropub is true at all, it was not a no-name friend of a friend who was in London! 😂 It was a BFF who was in LA and flirting with his ex-GF.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This mental gymnastics to fit Joe into a story that three artists have described is a good example of how swifties want to keep Taylor in a defined perfect box, which she wants out of. It reminds me of this quote she gave Rolling Stone in 2014, about the snowboarding accident and OOTW:
"People think they know the whole narrative of my life, I think maybe that line is there to remind people that there are really big things they don’t know about."

HOW DO WE measure the impact of a musician in 2023? Streams can be bought. Awards can be finessed. Is it when demand for show tickets leads to a congressional hearing about Ticketmaster’s policies? Or when flight attendants shout out a fanbase making a pilgrimage to see a tour opener? Or when TikToks of merch inspirations and setlist predictions rack up millions of views? Nearly a decade ago, a headline ran declaring ‘Taylor Swift Is The Music Industry’ and those with even the slightest pulse on pop culture can tell she’s only grown more omnipresent since. It all led to a warm evening in Glendale, Arizona where months after delivering her most commercially-successful album to date, Midnights, Swift debuted a discography-spanning setlist that lasted over three hours and kicked off an aptly-named stadium run. The Eras Tour has arrived.
The sheer length of the set is a feat, but not completely surprising considering the breadth of catalog at Swift’s disposal. Watching the 12-time Grammy winner take the stage right at 8pm, and continue past 11pm triggers the often overused cliché: Who’s doing it like her?
After night had fallen and GAYLE and Paramore revved the crowd up with a mix of recent chart-toppers (GAYLE’s “abcdefu”) and cultural anthems (Paramore’s “Misery Business”), it was time for the main event. At 7:57pm, a timer appeared on a massive screen prompting screams from all corners of State Farm Stadium. Lesley Gore’s “You Don’t Own Me” played as fans braced themselves for the arrival of Swift. When the timer hit 0:00, the house we’d seen in the “Lover” music video assembled on the screen, indicating that this evening was first and foremost about reviving the feelings each era evoked.
“So tonight, we’re going to be going through an adventure, one era at a time,” Swift said. “We’re going to be exploring the last seventeen years of music that I’ve been lucky enough to make and you’ve been kind enough to care about.”
It’s easy to compare one of Swift’s stadium shows to something you’d see on Broadway — never has that been more true than for The Eras Tour. The setlist is cut up into acts, grouped together by eras for each of Swift’s ten studio albums. For each era/act, Swift went full-send into that album’s look, feel, costume, color blocking, and more.
Many eras got a few songs. At one moment, it seemed like Swift’s soft spot for Folklore would mean we’d hear the entire album. On the opposite end, Speak Now’s part of the show was short but impactful. Swift played only one song from her third studio album, “Enchanted,” while wearing a stunning floor-length ballroom gown designed by Nicole + Derr. Hopping from act to act, Swift made it extremely clear when she’s taking the audience out of one era and into another. This isn’t a hastily put together setlist with a vague thread of connective tissue — Swift is taking her audience on a nostalgic extravaganza.
For both Swift and her fans, it’s been a long road to get to The Eras Tour kickoff. Friday night’s opener was four projects, millions of record sales, and over 1,500 days removed from the last tour stop on the Reputation stadium tour in 2018. Plus, who can forget the Ticketmaster fiasco in handling the sale of The Eras Tour tickets, which not only prompted an apology to Swift from the ticketing monopoly but also for Congress to investigate.
In perhaps a sympathetic nod to the canceled Lover Fest, Swift began the festivities with the Lover era. Wearing a jaw-dropping Versace bodysuit, Swift launched into “Miss Americana & the Heartbreak Prince” for the opening number. Swifties eager to see “Cruel Summer” live weren’t disappointed, as Swift strutted down the catwalk towards the stadium’s center, belting out the fast-paced bridge eager to deliver what stans had snatched away from them due to pandemic-related cancellations.
For “The Man,” Swift completed her Versace look with a blazer and made sure everyone could see the red bottoms when she kicked her feet up on a conference room table as she delivered the masterfully written and scathing assessment of gender inequality in pop culture. Swift closed out the Lover era act with “You Need to Calm Down” and “The Archer,” the latter getting a beautifully stripped down rendition so Swift’s vocals echoed across the stadium: “Because all of my enemies started out friends / Help me hold onto you.”
At one point, as Swift ran through hits from her Fearless era, she flashed a smile and announced to the crowd that she was taking us back to high school with her. The nostalgia seeped into the show, resulting in some of the loudest crowd participation yet, especially from those old enough to have grown up with Swift and were in high school at the same time she was. The singer ran through “Fearless,” “You Belong With Me,” and “Love Story,” reminding us of a time when we discovered the pop phenomenon unbeknownst to the level of celebrity she’d achieve.
Something about Swift — she’s online. If the fact that she decided to end last night with the TikTok-friendly “Karma” doesn’t make that obvious enough, her joke about disliking Evermore hammers home the point.
“We’re currently in the middle of the Evermore album, which is an album I absolutely love despite what some of you say on TikTok,” Swift said with a grin.
Later on in the act reserved for her ninth studio album, in line with how theatrical the event was, Swift set up a beautiful dinner setting only to deliver a heart-wrenching rendition of “Tolerate It.” She also performed “Tis the Damn Season,” “Willow,” “Marjorie,” and “Champagne Problems,” giving fans a sizable taste of the Evermore live experience they weren’t able to receive when the project came out in 2020.
For the acts dedicated to Reputation and Red, fans were treated to a masterclass in visuals and hitmaking, two key elements that has assured Swift prolonged success for as long as she’s had it. The powerful, striking, snake motifs were an awesome callback for fans who attended the Reputation tour.
For Red, Swift went through “22,” “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together,” and “I Knew You Were Trouble. She closed out the act with a beautiful performance of the 10-minute “Taylor’s Version” of “All Too Well.” In the evening’s most ethereal moment, small white confetti made to look like snow blanketed the State Farm Stadium as she neared the end of her magnum opus, singing “Because in this city’s barren cold/I still remember the first fall of snow/And how it glistened how it fell/I remember it all too well.” Not only is Swift a savant for world-building, but she’s perfected the ability to translate those worlds into the live experience.
Swift wasn’t shy about making sure people got the full Folklore live experience. A makeshift cabin, not unlike the one made during Swift’s 2021 Grammys performance, sat on the stage with Swift perched on it during “Invisible String.” The star also discussed how she finally got comfortable crafting narratives for purely fictional characters, rather than ripping them from the headlines about her life.
“Folklore was such a different album for me. I start writing it about two seconds into the pandemic. I was just so very aware of how much time I was going to have to spend away from you,” Swift explained before launching into “Betty,” “The Last Great American Dynasty,” “August,” “Illicit Affairs,” “My Tears Ricochet,” and “Cardigan.” “With this album, I thought it would be so fun to create characters, and storylines, and they can live in different times, and then can do all of these things, and they could fall in love and hurt each other and go to war…”
1989’s era act turned the party up and restored the energy, with Swift donning a Roberto Cavalli top and skirt and going through “Style,” “Blank Space,” “Shake It Off,” “Wildest Dreams,” and “Bad Blood.”
To cap off the evening, Swift returned to Midnights, performing album highlights “Lavender Haze,” “Mastermind,” and more. It was hard to ignore the immense gratitude the singer continued to exude throughout the evening, with the “thank yous” coming more and more often the closer she got to the end.
Eventually, the singer asked the crowd if they had time for one more and launched into her finale, “Karma,” a track with a passionate chorus that’s begging to be scream-sung in a room of about 60,000 who’ve been waiting for this exact moment for years. Maybe it’s fitting that an artist who’s had more than her fair share of ups and downs, and at times has been the most polarizing musician alive, ends her stadium tour opener with a song about how she can finally protect her peace. Karma’s a relaxing thought, indeed.
The Eras Tour is a feat. It’s live music at its highest spectacle and greatest excess. And for most, without the catalog and showmanship of Swift, it’d be too much. But 17 years into her career, maybe we ought to stop being surprised when she finds a way to top her own efforts year after year. Towards the end of Paramore’s set, Swift’s good friend Hayley Williams said we had gathered that evening to celebrate Swift’s incredible career. There’s something funny about a greatest hits concert for someone who’s never been more in her prime, isn’t there?
