We are less than a fortnight absent from Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour arriving throughout the pond in Paris, France. We are also in the middle of Swift’s latest era The Tortured Poets Section, which is filled with 31 model spanking new tunes. How is she likely to in shape them into the future concerts? That is way much too numerous only to be performed all through Swift’s surprise track established, exactly where she sings two tracks acoustically on piano and guitar. She only has fifty shows in Europe, so it would just take up 31% of the acoustic set if she resolved to savor them all for the latter 50 % of the exhibit. But Swift’s far too considerably of a mastermind for that. This leg of the tour only experienced 1 opener, Paramore, this means more achievable stage time for Swift. Could she insert her most recent period to an previously 3-hour and 15-moment live performance? Here’s all the evidence we’ve collected as to why Tortured Poets could be extra to the Eras Tour.
Ah, YouTube shorts. Possibly just one of the most annoying capabilities included to the platform as it floods the subscription feed with short-type movies on a website that thrives in lengthy type material. But it is now our initially piece of proof. Wanting closer at the 15 next movie of Swift rehearsing the live performance, you can see her leaning against a railing that appears to be like… The Torture Poets Department logo?

She’s sporting what we can suppose to be a lilac skirt, which is also noticed in a different YouTube Shorts video and described in “imgonnagetyouback.” Down below is a closer seem at her heels, which are really comparable to the similar footwear she wears in the “Fortnight” new music movie. Now, why would she require to exercise in distinct shoes if not for a new set?
Our past piece of Shorts evidence shows dancers carrying black hats and holding canes. Now, immediately after what feels like numerous viewings of the Eras Tour movie, I do not recall observing Swift’s dancers with possibly of individuals items, nor performing any of individuals moves with Swift at the middle.

In March 2023, Swift, in the same way to the “Fortnight” challenge, shared bits and items of her life in a TikTok, where by she showed unique coloured mics from the Eras Tour, such as a white one particular, which we have not witnessed on tour yet.
Over a year afterwards, the white microphone has manufactured its way back again into Swift’s hand, probably for a Tortured Poets overall look.

The Anthology announcement echos a identical message that Swift shares on the Eras tour. Suitable in advance of she plays “Lover,” she tells the crowd some variation: “These tunes perhaps started off out currently being about my everyday living, but my intention, my dream is that by the end of the night, they’ll be about your existence.” And now for her most recent album launch, Swift writes, “And now the story isn’t mine anymore… it is all yours.” Swift loves to create parallels among her new songs and her past do the job. Can this be an Easter Egg for what’s to come?
