Taylor Swift has opened up about the “actual amnesia” fans experienced after attending her mega stadium shows during the Eras Tour. The singer addressed the phenemonenon with her husband to be Travis Kelce ahead of the release of her 12th album The Life of a Showgirl.
Ahead of her latest reinvention, Taylor reflected on her multi-year record-breaking Eras Tour.
After hearing some fans claim they ‘couldn’t remember a thing’ following her show, the Fate of Ophelia singer seemed happy that she was able to generate such a “genuine” response.
“I think we did it. Nailed it. That’s genuine. I wasn’t even shooting for that goal when they’re like, ‘ I saw so many things and I experienced a state of euphoria that I now don’t remember what happened to me. ‘ I was like, oh my god”, Taylor said.
She added that she made the tour so high intensity for younger fans. “I wanted to show fans and especially younger fans, visuals and performance art that was important to me as a kid and inspired me to want to do this]be a singer]”.
Taylor said: “So wanted elements of musical theatre, Broadway, ballet, things you would see in an opera”. To which her fiance Travis responded: “Who thinks like this”?

His brother Jason Kelce added: “I just watched the whole tour. I thought it was amazing but I didn’t know all of this”. Taylor stated that she wanted the experience of “scrolling through an algorithm.”
“I wanted it to be references that I believed would be high concept, high value, and performed simultaneously.” However, I wanted to use rapid fire, the highest level of intensity.
Every 15 to 30 seconds, you’re seeing something new, and it feels like you’re scrolling through an algorithm. And so I thought, “Oh, I think we did it,” when I heard reports of people complaining about getting actual amnesia after the performances. “
Some Swifties who went on the Eras Tour claimed to be having “post-concert amnesia,” in which they struggled to recall specific show details. It is most likely caused by rapid sensory overload and intense emotional responses.

Taylor Swift dropped another lot of bombshells and clues as she released her brand new album The Life of a Showgirl, where she detailed more about her bedroom antics with Travis and standing up to ‘The Man’

Taylor Swift has revealed all about her life in coded messages
Taylor Swift has released her brand new album The Life of a Showgirl. The singer details her love for Travis on The Fate of Ophelia and Opalite and details her struggle with ‘The Man’ in her track Father Figure.
The singer’s new album comes off the back of a string of successful re-releases of her previous LPs including Speak Now, 1989 and Red under her Taylor’s Version re-records. In 2024, Taylor released her hotly anticipated album The Tortured Poets Department, which formed the basis of the second leg of her record breaking Eras Tour.
Taylor recently got engaged to Kansas Chiefs star Travis Kelce in a romantic proposal at his home. The NFL star had been dreaming to meet Taylor for years, and finally the pair came face to face, where they struck up a great bond and are now set to say I do.
Here’s the biggest bombshells from Taylor’s new album including a dig at a fellow pop star, an explicit track about her husband-to-be Travis Kelce and the terrible loss of a good friend.
X-rated confession
Taylor certainly isn’t hiding her romance with Travis Kelce, including some rather explicit references to their time in the bedroom.
Wood is the raciest song on the album and features lyrics referencing manhood and New Heights, Travis’ podcast he has with his brother Jason Kelce. It is a playful song full of word play and double entendres.
She sings: “Forgive me, it sounds cocky / He ah-matized me and opened my еyes / Redwood tree, it ain’t hard to see / His love was thе key that opened my thighs,” amongst other references to sex and their bedroom antics.
Charli XCX feud
Taylor doesn’t mince her words on the track Actually Romantic, where she seemingly references her feud with Charli XCX.
In the track, she sings: “I heard you call me “Boring Barbie” when the coke’s got you brave / High-fived my ex and then you said you’re glad he ghosted me / Wrote me a song saying it makes you sick to see my face / Some people might be offended.”
The song also references that the person it’s about “doesn’t wanna see her backstage at my boyfriend’s show”, which seemingly fits as both pop stars were dating members of The 1975 at the time.
Charli also has a song called Everything is Romantic, which makes the song of Taylor’s track even more telling.
Tragic loss
Taylor has seemingly referenced the devastating loss of her former school friend in a new track. In Ruin The Friendship, she sings: “When I left school, I lost track of you / Abigail called me with the bad news / Goodbye, and we’ll never know why,” and later says: “But I flew home anyway / With so much left to say … But I whispered at the grave / Should’ve kissed you anyway.”
The song is believed to be about Jeff Lang, a friend from high school who died at the age of 21. Taylor also paid tribute to him at the 2010 BMI Country Music Awards, where she said: “Yesterday, I sang at the funeral of one of my best friends. And he was 21, and I used to play my songs for him first. So I would like to thank Jeff Lang.”
Hitting back
Taylor might be the owner of her master recordings now after buying them back from her former management, but she wants one more opportunity to hit back at them in a new song.
Her famous fall out with her former record label is well documented, and she references this when she sings about how the men who helped with her career only wanted to see her “rise” rather than “reign”.
At the end of the song she shows herself getting the power back as she sings “this empire belongs to me”, referencing that she now owns her masters once again and was able to purchase them back with the money she got from The Eras Tour.
Baby bombshell
Taylor is entering her new era with this new album – but could a baby be on the cards for the singer? In Wi$h Li$t, she speaks of her desire to have kids and settle down with the love of her life.

“I just want you / Have a couple kids, got the whole block looking like you / We tell the world to leave us thе f*** alone, and they do,” she sings, adding: “Got me drеaming about a driveway with a basketball hoop / Boss up, settle down.”
Just weeks before the Keeping Up Appearances icon, sadly passed away in her sleep, surrounded by love, Dame Patricia Routledge made an extremely rare public appearance.
Assistant Celebrity and Entertainment Editor, Daniel Bird
Dame Patricia Routledge made a public appearance in the weeks before her death. The legendary actress became a household name for her portrayal of Hyacinth Bucket in the BBC sitcom, Keeping Up Appearances. Patricia was beloved as the scheming Hyacinth who went to great lengths to shake off her ‘working-class’ roots.
After the final episode of the television series, which aired three decades ago, Dame Patricia returned to do television work, appearing in Hetty Wainthropp, appearing in Talking Heads 2, and starring in a number of documentaries. The Tranmere-born actress then resumed her first love, the stage, despite not having any television work on her plate.
She joined the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School and later joined the University of Liverpool to pursue a degree in English Language and Literature, with her final acting debut seeing her play Lady Markby in 2014’s An Ideal Husband.
In her final years, Dame Patricia made a few public appearances, but her last one was just weeks before she passed away. Dame Patricia and her former co-star Dominic Monaghan joined them for dinner 27 years after the conclusion of Hetty Wainthropp Investigates.
While dining out with Dame Patricia, Dominic posted a picture of himself and Dame Patricia. “25 YEARS AGO!” he wrote next to his image. It’s so lovely to see Dame Patricia.
“We always shared a love of acting, of actors, of the natural world and all of the curiosities of life, it was fantastic to spend a couple of hours doing the same! She still tells fantastic stories, loves great food and wine, and as always is sharp as a tack, with fantastic skin and style.
She teaches me a lot, and she continues to do so while maintaining my exemplary class and quality as she ages. Hetty Wainthropinvestigates forever! #becurious”. Dame Patricia and chef and restaurateur Michael Newton-Young posed for photos several months prior to this at Chez Moi, his restaurant in Bognor Regis.
She was brilliant, lovely, and brilliant as a button. She is “clear as a tack,” Michael claimed in an interview with The Argus. A Dame Patricia spokesperson confirmed her death by saying, “We are deeply saddened by her passing, who peacefully passed away peacefully in her sleep this morning, surrounded by love.”
Dame Patricia’s enthusiasm for her work and her ability to connect with live audiences remained constant even at the age of 96, just as viewers have remained a part of her beloved television roles. She will be dearly missed by her devoted fans and close friends all over the world.
In addition to her roles in Darling Of The Day and the Old Lady in Leonard Bernstein’s opera Candide, Dame Patricia has received numerous awards over the past 60 years for her roles in these roles.
She was born on February 17, 1929, in Birkenhead, Merseyside, where her father, a wealthy gents’ outfitter, said “keeping up appearances” was the name of the game.
She made her professional debut at the Liverpool Playhouse in 1952 as Hippolyta in A Midsummer Night’s Dream after graduating from Liverpool University and appearing in student shows there.
Two years later, she made her Broadway debut in London with the play How’s The World Treats You, which she co-starred in.

She rose to fame in Victoria Wood: As Seen on TV in the mid-1980s, before taking the role of Hyacinth in the BBC’s Keeping Up Appearances, and made her mark on television as well.
In 2017, she was honoured at Buckingham Palace as she was made a Dame Commander of the British Empire for her services to the theatre and charity.
Fans are convinced the Princess of Wales, along with King Charles and Princess Anne, have made a subtle swipe at the Duke of Sussex and his recent claims about his meeting with his father

Many senior royals were out in force this week for various events and engagements, with some eagle-eyed royal fans convinced that the likes of Princess Kate and King Charles were sending a subtle message to Prince Harry.
In the weeks after the Duke of Sussex’s meeting with his estranged father, sources close to Harry say he was left “infuriated” and that he thought senior Palace aides were trying to torpedo his attempts at reconciliation with the Firm , urging “the men in grey suits to stay out of it.”
Now, fans online have noticed the monochrome colour palette of grey suits worn by senior royals this week, and believe their outfit choices could be a subtle yet hilarious dig at Harry’s comments.

The Princess of Wales travelled to Lincolnshire where she visited RAF Coningsby yesterday, stepping out in a coordinated grey suit, while King Charles also donned a grey suit for an event in Scotland to celebrate the King’s Foundation’s ’35 under 35 network’.
During an engagement in the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, Princess Anne also opted for a grey suit as she spoke with Ukraine’s First Lady Olena Zelenska before talking with children who have lived under occupation in a children’s rights protection centre.
The unified colour palette immediately set tongues wagging among royal fans online, with many suggesting it was more than just a coincidence. Taking to X, royal fans quipped: “Oh well played. Grey suits galore today.”
“All senior royals in grey. Cough cough! This is the shade of the century,” chimed in a second. A third added: “The senior Royals in grey suits is hilarious. Their humour is great, showing they call the shots.”
During his recent visit to the UK, last month, Harry had a private tea with his father lasting just under an hour – a meeting widely seen as a tentative step towards rebuilding their relationship.
However, after reports surfaced suggesting their reunion at Clarence House was “distinctly formal” with Harry feeling like an “official visitor,” the narrative of their reunion turned sour.
The Duke was reportedly furious at what he viewed as a concerted campaign by unnamed Palace officials to sabotage his attempts at reconciliation following their fall out. He was reportedly particularly infuriated by their hostile briefings to newspapers.
A source close to Prince Harry told the Mail On Sunday: “The relationship between the Duke and His Majesty The King is a matter for the two of them and the two of them only. The men in grey suits should stay out of it.”
One comment in particular appeared to hint Harry had overestimated a meeting with Charles, claiming the Duke had “mistaken a brief tea and a slice of cake for the Treaty of Versailles.” The Sun also claimed Harry’s meeting with the King had been “distinctly formal” and that the Duke later described the meeting as “very official, like an official visit.”
The outlet then reported there were no further plans for them to be seen together in public. It also declined to retract the statement with the Duke’s spokesperson issuing a statement, adding: “Recent reporting of the Duke’s view of the tone of the meeting is categorically false.
“The quotes attributed to him are pure invention fed, one can only assume, by sources intent on sabotaging any reconciliation between father and son.”
