According to Taylor Swift‘s fans, what appeared to be a technical glitch during her Liverpool concert was actually a deliberate move.
Her devoted followers, known as Swifties, believe that the glitch was a clue hinting at Swift’s upcoming project.
The Grammy Award-winning singer performed at Anfield Stadium in Liverpool as part of her Eras tour, featuring ten acts inspired by different periods of her career.
A giant screen projected a live performance of Swift to the 62,000-strong audience.
During her performance of the song “Mastermind” from her 2022 album of the same name, the screen briefly went black before returning to normal.
A fan account on X (formerly Twitter) shared a video of this moment, which has garnered over 630,000 views.
The flickering on the screen coincided with the phrase “none of it was accidental,” igniting speculation among Swifties about a potential ‘Reputation TV’ teaser.
Swift has been re-recording her first six albums as part of reclaiming her music rights from her previous label, which have been released as ‘Taylor’s Versions’ over the past five years.
Following the release of her eleventh studio album, ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ at the Grammy Awards, fans were surprised as they expected an announcement about ‘Reputation TV’.
Swift’s fans enjoy hunting for Easter eggs in her music and promotional materials, speculating on potential hints and clues.
In the buildup to the release of ‘The Tortured Poets Department’, fans correctly predicted its drop on April 19, with the album teaser featuring a mural in Chicago with QR codes.
The anticipation for ‘Reputation TV’ continues to grow as Swifties dissect every detail, from fonts to outfit choices in Swift’s teasers and performances.
