*REACTION* Taylor Swift - Reputation Tour - Intro + Ready For It

[@brittanyfields2794]

Best part about that opener is that every reporter you hear was invited by her to the tour opening show to sit VIP and watch it all

[@Lindy98]

Did they all show up?

[@Flixtex]

​@@Lindy98ofcourse who wouldn't

[@bronwyn117]

What? I did not know that! I hoped they all cringed at their absurdity!

[@kathyditlevson5085]

So badass! Love it!

[@shannonoconnell3146]

Savage. It's my favorite

[@kristinmiller3715]

There was the Kim/Kanye drama how they recorded and edited a phone call about his song famous and they got the public/media to turn on her and call her a liar and a snake. She went into hiding and wasn’t seen out about for a whole year. But during that time she was writing this album and took the whole snake name calling and embraced it into the theme for this and blacked out her social medias and took fans by surprise dropping the album. And when she announced the tour lots of people didn’t think it would do well or sell out. Which can figure out now it did the opposite and killed it. Definitely do more REPUTATION!!!! Especially from the Stadiums Tour!!! There’s a good mix of album songs, old discography hits, mashups, and she does some guitar/piano ones as well!!!

[@kristinmiller3715]

Later in the concert a giant snake comes out that got named Karyn 😂

[@MoyaoftheMist]

Since they don't have the additional context: It later turned out the phone call was misleadingly edited and Taylor Swift was telling the truth the whole time. Just so y'all don't think that Kanye and Kim were in the right here. (A lot of people never heard the full phone call and never changed their opinion of Taylor after the #TaylorSwiftIsOverParty ...I was there in the thick of things when all that went down, and it was a fuckin' bloodbath on Twitter and Tumblr. Even though, like, it was obvious to me that the illegally recorded call was edited? I don't think 80% of the people involved even listened to the misleading soundbyte.) (Hope the extra context on your post is okay!)

[@kellyprang611]

The deal with the phonecall- Kanye called Taylor to ask her to drop his new song Famous on her Instagram, and said he had a line that said "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex" she sounded pretty uncomfortable but told him she didn't want to use her Instagram to deliver a misogynistic message. She also said - I thought you would call me a bitch, thank goodness you didn't. The song came out and said "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex- Why? I made that bitch famous!" She said she didn't approve his use of that line, Kim K and Kanye said she approved it and dropped an edited recording of the phonecall that Kim had filmed. Then, Kanye dropped thr video for the song and it had a wax figure of Taylor naked and in bed with Kanye, along with other famous people wax figures- including Rhianna next to Chris Brown (who had severely beaten Rhianna when they were dating). Kim K went on Twitter and said "It's national snake day today? They have days for everybody-- I mean everything now!" With a ton of snake emojis, then lots of people went on Taylor's twitter/instagram and posted #Taylor is over, and tons of snake emojis. The hashtag was the global #1 trending hashtag on Twitter for days. Taylor went into hiding and wasn't seen by paparazzi for weeks, and she fell in love with a British actor named Joe, who she wrote Reputation about while they were living in the UK for almost a year. They dated from 2016-2023, then announced their breakup in April 2023. In 2020, someone hacked Kim K's phone and released the unedited phonecall showing that Kanye never told Taylor he was gonna call her a bitch in the song, like she had said back in 2016. When that happened, Kim K posted about how they had all moved past it and why was anyone concerned about what was said so long ago and during a pandemic that there were more important things to worry about. So, Reputation came out in late 2017, with lots of images of snakes in her new music videos and on her Instagram. Before the stuff in 2016, Taylor actually allowed comments on her profiles on social media, and interacted with fans on Tumblr, but she wiped all her socials clean and started over when Reputation dropped. All the clips of the media at the beginning of the intro were from the time she was in "disgrace", and she actually invited all of those media people to opening night of the Reputation tour, not telling them she was using their words for the intro. Many media people had said she was "playing the victim" when she said she hadn't approved Kanye calling her a bitch in his song.

[@cputrbug]

@@kellyprang611 Taylor comes out with a rap/hard edge album that makes more money than Kanye's. Now she is on top of the world. Revenge, thy name is Taylor Swift.

[@bkirstie]

because trash takes the trash out itself

[@annietrahan7322]

I heard she invited The press to this concert. The ones that were making all the statements at the beginning and played this at the concert now that’s savage.

[@m1zzone723]

This is true

[@ruffboiALT]

The fact that she can carry that much presence and confidence when she's all alone on a stage THAT BIG for a stadium THAT LARGE is just mind-blowing to me. She's amazing.

[@TRex799]

Here’s the lore: The whole Kanye stage thing happened, then him and Taylor made up and became friendly. Then sometime after that He called her up, asking her if he could use her name in a song, she said yes. The song dropped and the lyric actually said “Taylor Swift… I made that bitch famous” Taylor was obviously very upset about this bc this was not the lyric they’d agreed on. However she didn’t know that Kim and Kanye had recorded their phone call, and they edited it to sound like Taylor had approved that lyric when she didn’t. Then Kanye came out and accused her of trying to stir up drama on purpose and turn people against him and being a “lying snake”. It was a major betrayal from someone she had begun to consider to a friend. The media, celebrities, and social media sided with Kanye. Taylor hid herself away until she was like, “Fuck it, if they’re gonna ruin my reputation like this, I’m gonna own it.” And sure enough in 2020 the actual unedited video was leaked confirming that Taylor had been telling the truth all along. Which honestly it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see through Kanye’s lie but people always seem to jump on the chance to have a reason to hate Taylor.

[@argentinaangel]

Yes, I cried when Taylor came out on stage during her Reputation tour. AND my boyfriend at the time got scared bc 75,000 girls screamed at the same time 😂

[@TAHBofficial]

That’s so funny!! 😂

[@Debbie-m7f]

I would of cried too👍🏻❤️

[@HazelScott-ze8dc]

Loads of boys and men went to the tour lmao, but I get you

[@rachaelsmith190]

Reputation is truly truly that bitch. Being there felt like you knew you were seeing something special in real-time. It’s hard to imagine now with how beloved and famous she is at the moment, but she was vilified beyond being the butt of the joke. People actually hated her. So seeing this comeback tour where she was so dominant and better than ever was sooo emotional for me as a lifelong fan. Also, she invited all of the media from that intro video snippets to opening night so they were in the crowd to watch her completely kill it on stage. Such a boss move 😂

[@elioharrington]

7:25 EXACTLY! I've always thought that female performers are held to a much higher standard. No one gets mad at a guy for just singing with his guitar, but people call female singers lazy if they don't do a whole dance routine whilst singing perfectly.

[@MsBitchqueen123]

You guys crack me up. I watch your reaction videos partly because of the way you torture tease each other. And I am rediscovering my appreciation for Taylor Swift .

[@SouthernArtist77]

So true.

[@joshikawale25]

So true! It's like you gotta prove yourself 10 times over just for a pat on the back.

[@HRHDMKYT]

RIGHT?!! Did the Beatles do elaborate (or any) dance numbers while singing? Bruce Springsteen? Eric Clapton? Kurt Cobain? Elton John? Total DOUBLE STANDARD- Women have to work three times as hard to get half the credit, always. I Love 💕 Taylor. How can anyone not?❤

[@silasfenchel2200]

Billie Eilish has already given some performances where she is just singing accompanied by her brother on piano. No one got mad at her or called her lazy. Why is that? Because her music doesn’t need to be performed with a great dance routine, her music can stand on its own. The standard aren’t defined by the gender, it’s defined by the music you perform. „Ready for it“, on the other hand, is a dance song. Thus needs a dance performance. If Taylor Swift would just perform this song by accompanying herself on guitar, it would just be boring.

[@judeless77]

I’ve met her twice and she’s one of the kindest people you will ever meet. She’s incredible and an amazing role model for…. Everyone

[@jenniferbullett7254]

You met her twice😢 I would love to meet her at least once in my lifetime. 😊😊

[@thedrunksaiyan2227]

[@cherylcugno7208]

I was there. I laughed, cried, danced and sang the entire time! I was ready for it at 57 years old. I've seen, McCartney, Floyd and many more. She's excellent!

[@TAHBofficial]

Thats awesome!! I can only imagine! Thanks for watching! -J

[@IvyCowboy]

I was so excited to see this on my feed! I knew you would be blown away. I would do I Did Something Bad next, and then *Don't Blame Me*. This tour is INSANE. She does do the acoustic sets too, where it's just her and a guitar or piano. The piano version of Clean and Long Live/New Year's Day from this tour are also amazing. As for the lore - Taylor was 19 and Kanye was 32 when he ripped the microphone from her hand (2009). He's done a lot of horrible things to her as well. Reputation was a response to her being "cancelled" in 2016, after a different incident - Taylor clapped back at Kanye for taking credit for her fame and for calling her a bitch in his new song. KimYe released a video of what seemed like Taylor approving lyrics in Kanye's song (years later it was revealed that the video was edited and that Taylor had been telling the truth). She disappeared from the public for a year, and then came back like a bat outta hell with the Reputation album and tour. Her concerts have always been theatre-type productions, but this one was huge.

[@wildly_heather]

And thus Jacob was totally right! Kim went off with a bunch of snake emojis and her fans swarmed Tswift's socials with them as well.

[@JHeyworth1]

Exactly. So please be really careful using the B word for anybody but especially for Taylor.

Taylor is the Disney of performers… the attention to detail… she ensures that no matter where ur sitting ur view will have something special! I was at the Rep Tour in LA at the Rose Bowl and the way she demands your attention… it’s AMAZING!!!… great show… great performer… great production.. I’ve seen her 4 times and she is definitely evolving and growing musically… there is nothing this woman can’t do… this Woman has my respect and my support…

[@inmyReputation-Era]

She absolutely took the criticism of “she can’t dance” and worked her ass off to prove them wrong. She hired Tyce D’Orio to choreograph the whole thing and worked her ass off to learn it. She did the same thing for Eras only she used Mandy Murphy. Both Tyce and Mandy are incredibly well known choreographers who have won Emmy awards for their work on So You Think You Can Dance. I got to see this concert live in St. Louis and the only way to describe it is an experience like no other.

[@KLP4]

I absolutely love that you all are diving into different eras of her music and seeing how talented she is!

[@Carolina_Girl_]

Hell yeah!!! And she sold out 3 nights there!! It was INSANE!!! You need “I did something bad” live from the same tour! It was her next song right after this one! I mean she walked in that piece LIKE THIS!! So glad you guys enjoyed this! Let’s go with “I did something bad” PS. The Reputation Stadium Tour was after the kanye kim shit! This is how Taylor came back! Everyone was talking about her “reputation” so what does she do? She named the tour “Reputation” and there were snakes everywhere! She IS THE MUSIC INDUSTRY! Ima shut up now!😂 Remember : “I did something bad” PLEASE! Thanks guys. Keep shining✨

[@rlm4874]

Nearly a decade after Kanye went up on stage, he writes a song where he says he may still sleep with Taylor & says he made that B famous. He and Kim K edited a tape of him seemingly show he was getting her permission & released it. It was later proven that the edits misrepresented the conversation but in the meantime everyone was calling her a snake 🐍 and posting these emojis all over her social media w Kim K leading the charge. She went away with nobody seeing her for over a year and she wrote this album. Throughout the tour she used giant snakes & broke every record out there for sold out stadium tours. Meanwhile Kanye went o. Tour and sand that song on his crooked stage but was unable to finish the tour. She used a reference to the crooked stage in look what you made me do and so many of these songs throw shade at he and his wife. It’s brilliant. Don’t come for Taylor because she kicks ass every time.

[@audrey5451]

I am the girl at 12:01 and the clip of me they played was actually from when Taylor was at the b-stage giving a speech (editors must have chopped it)! she was literally right in front of me with no one in between us it was insane (and no she does not look real its crazy how perfect she looks in person)

[@audrey5451]

She had two smaller stages for this tour and anyone on the floor could GA move closer, so i got a front-row view for two songs and then went back to my seat for only $200, she really cares about the fan experience

[@TAHBofficial]

Thats actually insane!!! How cool! -J

I’m not a Swiftie, but i absolutely LOVE the Reputation era of Taylor, she was such a badass for doing what she did musically and the comeback she had during that time was fire. I suggest you checking her other live performances from that tour - they’re honestly mindblowing, it was definitely a statement to all music world! I really really enjoyed your TS and TOP videos! Always happy to see them on my feed, thank you so much!❤️

[@angiehh516]

TOP is my fave but I’m enjoying becoming a swiftie while Tyler is busy writing the next album.

[@ashtonreads]

I went to Eras Tour in Philly and my friend asked if she could record my reaction when Taylor took the stage. I said sure because I was convinced I’d just be excited and yelling a bit…instead I totally started crying during the intro before she even came out, and absolutely lost my shit when she appeared 😂 After being a fan for 17 years, seeing her live for the first time was so overwhelming in the best way.

[@londonsmoker]

I remember watching this on Netflix and being blown away. I had no idea she was like this live.

[@lostandfawned]

I went to the Eras Tour at AT&T stadium in April. We were in the nosebleed but my brain was still a slushie for the entire first song. It was completely unreal. The experience of being in the stadium with everyone and Taylor was completely infectious. Even up in the worst seats everyone was just happy to be there, dressed up, joyful, kind… like I’m not a fan of crowds but I felt so safe and welcome with my fellow fans. But I completely blacked out for the first song. Hahaha. You have to do I Did Something Bad from the Rep tour. It’s the next song in the set list after Ready for It. Context for this tour, it was after she went dark for about a year. The first kanye thing was way back during her Fearless Era. But kanye and Kim screwed her over before rep, claiming she lied about giving kanye permission to call her a (I don’t know the comment filtering, but a nasty word for a female) in his song and released this edited version of the phone call and stuff. They started a campaign on social media calling Taylor a Snake. So you’ll see a lot of snake imagery in this tour. If your an Ed fan, she did a collab with Ed and Future on the reputation album too.

[@lostandfawned]

Also check out some of the behind the scenes footage of her writing the songs for Reputation. It’s so cool to watch her in writing mode.

[@TrinaHartshorne]

Glendale, AZ attended here. Also nosebleed seats. Also THRILLED just to be there. Her 2nd show. Non-Swifties didn't believe how stunning it was. Until the video clips hit the internet 😳🤣 Now you can't escape her ... 😉🙃❤️❤️

[@nickyG1212]

I recently watched the Miss Americana doc on Netflix. It’s really good to watch as a non Swifty and gave me some new found appreciation for Taylor's career. And then I followed it up with watching the whole Reputation Tour film. Great stuff!

[@stacyfrazierbauer8811]

After being gone for 2 years no interviews nothing...POOF! She wrote this album and did no press for it at all all she said was this famous quote.."There will be no explanation, There will just be Reputation." ❤

[@julianadavila344]

I’m a “noob” Swiftie, started like really following every step she takes after folklore, but seeing the reputation era on The Eras Tour last weekend, here in Brazil, was insaaaane! Goosebumps and scream 😂

[@F1Swiftie]

Taylor's concerts are more Broadway show production than just a regular concert. Totally worth it. Took my daughter to The Eras Tour in April in Arlington, TX. It's the same stadium that the Reputation Tour movie was done. She sold out 3 back-to-back nights for The Eras Tour here ~75k people each night. Capacity: she doesn't sell tickets behind the stage (of course), so it's not the complete capacity of the stadium for a football game, but considered sold-out for the concert.

[@SwiftieXinfinity]

Yes, it played live at the concert. This was the most amazing concert I’ve ever seen and it is definitely worth the money. This concert/album was her comeback and take control of her music & life again. A bunch of dirty deeds were done to her by Kanye and Kim, even to the point that Taylor disappeared from pubic view for over a year. People were spamming twitter and social media with snake emojis after Kim called her a “snake in the grass”. She fully embraced the snake 🐍 imagery in this album and makes references to it in songs that are even new releases now. She’s THE queen! 🥰❤️🥰

[@shelbylee242]

I didn't faint, but after being a fan since her debut, I did cry when I went to the eras tour and first saw her on stage. It was so surreal to see her in person and have fufilled my wish that she be my first ever concert 🩷 It was incredible by the way. Ive gone to concerts after that now and there was nothing like hers

[@jamiespeese2062]

Great reaction as always ☺️ Don’t Blame Me and I Did Something Bad are both amazing live from that tour as well. Highly recommend checking them out! Her stage presence is second to none

[@judeless77]

The Reputation tour was the highest grossing tour in history… and now the Eras tour is.

[@mrjeremydizon]

You guys were right on the money, this album came out after the Kanye phone call where he called Taylor if he could include her in his song “Famous” but didnt mention that he would be calling her bitch on it and Kim recorded the call and spliced it to make it seem that Taylor agreed to it then the internet turned on to Taylor and called her a snake (which Kim started) and so she disappeared from the public for a year and emerged with Reputation. You guys should react to Look What You Made Me Do which is all about this controversy.

[@mxame01]

She is truly an impressive performer that deserves all the accolades. He latest tour is unbelievable.

[@fredyross7972]

Yes reputation album happened bcs of the hate that she received during kim and kanye edited phone call situation. She was hated so much during that time, tayloswiftisoverparty was trending worldwide. She disappeared from the media for like a year. It was bad. She was called a snake, that's why in reputation album the whole theme was snake and dark. You guys definitely should check out "Don't blame me" live performance reputation tour.

[@Lindy98]

I'm repeating this reply because I came late to this party: Historically, serpents and snakes represent fertility or a creative life force. As snakes shed their skin through sloughing, they are symbols of rebirth, transformation, immortality, and healing. The ouroboros is a symbol of eternity and continual renewal of life.

[@musicfangirl7403]

I was in practically the very last row of 80,000 people at the Rose Bowl in LA and I nearly lost my mind at this show. It was a perfect seat honestly. I just looked back at my video from 2018 and I don’t think that press intro played but maybe I just missed filming it. I do remember that the last song on the preshow playlist was Bad Reputation by Joan Jett which was so rad. This tour was one of my favorite live experiences ever. It was big and loud and had everything from the light up bracelets to fireworks. My 10 year old son and I just jumped up and down and sang the whole time. I enjoyed it so much more than her current Eras tour.

[@musicfangirl7403]

Also meant to say that it’s hard to overstate how huge that stage was. It was so many stories tall and the band (she always has a live band) was up high in the middle somewhere. Then there were 2 smaller stages deeper into the stadium, closer to us. She flew through the air in these little baskets to and from the stages while singing. And there were massive snakes everywhere. It was mental 😂

[@adamwassim9666]

Y'all need to also see the "i did something bad" & "don't blame me" performances from the same show

I’ve got my first ever panic attack at her Speak Now tour (didn’t realize why) but then again at the Eras tour. It’s so overstimulating and overwhelming in the best way, my brain is like HELP TOO MUCH!

[@Pushindazees]

You guys really have to check out All Too Well, The Short Film. Taylor actually wrote AND directed the film/video for the song. I dare you not to cry! It's flipping amazing, she is an incredible lyricist. And if that isn't enough the actors in the short film are Sadie Sink (Stranger Things) and Dylan O'Brien (Maze Runner), and they act their butts off.

7:33 - Okay, I’ll get back to the video in a sec, but I gotta correct something here-she’d been doing unbelievable performances since at least Speak Now. (I haven’t seen Fearless, her first headlining tour-maybe that went super hard, too?) I think youse should check out “Haunted” from Speak Now if you think she just played guitar before this, hahaha. And there were two tours between Speak Now and Reputation (Red and 1989), too. Like… I don’t know where this image of her coming out and playing guitar comes from, actually. I’ve heard it from a lot of reactors, but I can’t figure out the source… Is it the acoustic set? She does do an acoustic set… But that’s only a small part of the concert. Anyway, I’ll watch the rest, honest, I was just like nooooooo don’t dismiss her older concerts YOULL MISS OUT ON SO MUCH (for real, check out “Haunted” and other Speak Now performances. It’s great!)

So glad you guys made another video listening to Taylor!! I love new seeing fans diving into her stuff. Once you've made it through the iconic Reputation performances you should listen to "Never Grow Up" from Speak Now and "Ronan" from Red. They will both bring tears but they're beautiful and show how introspective, empathetic and talented Taylor has been since the start of her career. I would also recommend looking into Ronan a little either before or after you listen... she wrote it for a very special reason.

Taylor swift was 19 when Kanye ran up on the stage. But there were a lot of people spreading fake news about her so she had enough and she disappeared from the public eye for some time and when she came back she dropped this album which is about her reputation

[@JHeyworth1]

I attended this concert live. I absolutely amazing and worth every penny. The concert you put on after returning to performing after having removed herself from social media, and the public eye we’re almost 2 years because of all the hate. As she said, “there will be no explanation, just. “reputation” (the tour/ songs/ performance). This is just the video of the intro (played on the stadium… those clips of the hateful talk.. played before she started this opening number. It was amazing to experience in person

[@DieHard0]

You were right about her dancers coming up from the floor. Just before they went on stage, they lined up along the sides of the X catwalk wings that shot out from the stage on the same level as the crowd, right in front of us in the pit. (The stage was higher than the crowd was.) There were stairs on each side that led up onto the stage. I was actually in the pit right in front of the steps, so many of the dancers actually slapped my hand as they went on stage. It was incredibly cool. Tay also stopped and sang down to me a few times during the show, (I've been to 4 of her different concerts: Speak Now, RED, 1989 and Reputation,) and she has done that every time, (I would LIKE to think she recognized me, but I highly doubt it,) and the first concert, (Speak Now,) she hugged me as she made her way through the crowd from the main stage to the b-stage, which doesn't happen the same way it used to due to her popularity and security concerns obviously. She also stopped right in front of me, letting me get one of my favorite pictures of her I've ever taken during the song, "Don't Blame Me", for her iconic 'moment'. Trust me, you will know the moment I'm talking about if you watch the live version of the song, although it doesn't capture her from the angle I got, which amplified the entire thing ten-fold. Unfortunately with these videos they only capture brief pieces of what was actually going on. There were a lot more fireworks, fire, etc, that happened and aren't captured on the recording. What you actually see is only a brief glimpse into just how epic the concert truly was. PS: Yes, all the 'video packages' played on the massive screens at different points in the concert. And although you can't see it, there is a large, full band up on platforms behind those screens. There is a point in the concert where it opens up, and you can see all the musicians.

i couldn’t pick a favorite brother this time bc y’all had me laughing so hard. the shock on your faces is hilarious 😅

[@TAHBofficial]

That’s crazy it’s not me! -E

[@MayvPH11]

Reputation album was a come back album because she was gone for a year and came back with this. Amidst kanye and Kim's drama. Anyway love your reaction. it gives me joy seeing the notif that you drop a Taylor's reaction. Can you please react to "I did something bad" from that reputation tour too. Thank you!

[@heathercochrane2207]

Reputation was "you wanted a bad guy, well, I'll give you one". Stan this album/Era forever.

[@lauraguerrero1324]

Something iconic about the intro is she invited all those media people that said those things about her to the opening night and they had no clue that was going to be played and was shocked with everyone else! She’s so iconic !!!

[@cate3399]

I was at the Dallas show where this was recorded. It was absolutely amazing and hands down the best show I have ever been to.

[@lyric-dawn]

That’s the way you start a show!

[@tambij]

YES THIS IS PLAYING LIVE IN THE ARENA & IT WAS SHAKING THE ENTIRE STADIUM IN L.A. 🔥🔥

[@ashleykinney4294]

Okay so just to give a recap of the Kanye drama… after the VMA’s incident, Taylor forgave Kanye, she even wrote a song about forgiving him. Then, he put out a song that had a few lines about Taylor, including calling her a b*tch, and she was publicly upset by it. Kanye said he got her permission for the lines and Taylor said that wasn’t true. Kim then leaked an EDITED video of a phone call between Taylor and Kanye where it appears like he told her what lines are about her and she gave permission. Because of this video, she got so much hate. People and the media were calling her a liar, a snake, telling her to disappear, etc. Taylor Swift is over party was even trending on Twitter. So then she did disappear, no one saw her for like a year. There are rumors she was going to put out an album because she was putting one out every 2 years at that point, and even that got cancelled. So then a year later, she returned with the album Reputation as a big f you to all the haters. And eventually the unedited version of the phone call came out showing that Taylor didn’t lie and she never gave permission for Kanye to call her a b*tch. Tried to make that as short as possible, but there’s the lore for you lol

[@Augustine0899]

This is the lore you guys, do read it to get additional context

[@LightingInvoker]

Taylor is banana bread at work, dude. Hell yeah.

[@evatjeeee3060]

omg you guys need to listen to 'I did something bad' at the Reputation tour or AMA's (i don' t really care). its sooooo good

[@southernbelle2675]

I was there and to this day the reputation tour is the best concert I have ever seen. Of anyone-including the Era's tour. Not even close.

[@nmswjm]

After Kanye released “Famous”. Taylor was pissed because he had pretended to be apologetic. Swore he got her permission in a phone call for how he used her in the song and video. Kim lashed out and released a heavily edited phone call which made it look like Taylor was fine with it. Somehow, somebody got the original recording of the call, showing TS was NOT okay with it being misogynistic and Kanye never said he was going to call her a bitch in the lyrics. The media took sides and it was a whole big thing. T basically disappeared for about a year and a half and came back with this album. The woman knows how to reclaim the narrative! Bam.

[@heatherkingston1445]

She's the Queen of Flipping Your Sh*t Back On You. Using music. Which is so cool. She's gonna make you men fall in love with her with this album...lol

[@Kat00133]

Best music performer worldwide

[@KarenMonneau]

That’s so hilarious when people realize that she’s dope all the way 🖤🤍

[@btp55106]

So I didn’t get to see reputation when it was live but I was at eras and I can say that the anticipation before she comes in like while you’re waiting during the intro is insane. I’m talking like the whole place was vibrating and the emotions I was feeling were insane. If I would have been up front I would have cried the whole show I know it, as it was I managed to keep myself under control for most of it, but yeah I’m just saying she is incredible live and just the feelings omg

[@clarkbarrett6274]

So, I'm a 53 yr old Dad. Been a fan of TS since Debut. Took my 12 yr old to Rep as her first concert. (Got free floor tix in 11th row). She blew my ears out during the Intro and Ready for it. Still have it on my phone. She's become a mega fan since. And I am always impressed with Ms Swift. We saw her again for Eras. It was also awesome but I feel like Reputation tour was better. There's no fan base like the Swifites. And no artist quite like Taylor. No one does what she does. No one. No one can generate 3 new albums and 4 re-releases in 3 years - w/ 2 during pandemic. No one plays in the rain like she does for 3.5 hrs. No one directs videos and short films. She's a professional in all she does. Yeah, I'm a fan.

[@clarkbarrett6274]

Should also say. I've been to plenty of shows with other bands including the Stones in Prague with 100,000 people. Rep was the best production I had seen until Eras. And Eras was amazing with 3.5 hrs of content, costumes, stage changes. But I still like Rep better. It was less overwhelming than Eras too. How Taylor can do it for 3 5 hrs I do not know. She's just crazy good at what she does.

[@TheSarahKay31]

Thank you for being an amazing swiftie dad. As a a grown up swiftie whose dad is still her best friend, i'm telling you those daddy/daughter memories she will never forget!

[@clarkbarrett6274]

@@TheSarahKay31 You're very kind. Thank you. They're great kids.

[@theConquerersMama]

The first time I saw Taylor she was doing concerts in the Target parking lot county fair style. I won tickets on the radio. I was pregnant at the time. I have been a Swiftie ever since. I saw this tour and two other shows. One basically an acoustic storytellers show which was so interesting and captivating in a different way. And yeah, people were dropping in excitement. Fast forward to this Era tour. I moved heaven and earth to have this experience with my now 17 year old. Yes, it was expensive. But it was also history and bonding with my kid in a way that a trip to Disney or a cruise or skiing wouldn't be.

[@MIrwin-wf9xo]

I have never laughed so hard during a reaction. You guys are great! 😂

[@TAHBofficial]

Thank you!! 😂

[@compositionoct]

i remember going to rep tour when she came to atlanta. she’s a great performer, great stage presence, SUPER entertaining, and the pyrotechnics were no joke. fire everywhere. it was hot in there LMAO. such a great environment to. the swifties are so sweet!

[@alaina7250]

my favorite part about this performance is the fact that she had a cold. later in the concert she stops to blow her nose hahaha

[@nikkiiiim]

I think that you guys would definitely love the "I did something bad" performance from the Reputation tour! :)

[@ingobordewick6480]

She is such a great songwriter.... "You can be my jailor, Burton to this Taylor..." (like in Richard Burton & Elizabeth Taylor) Such a clever line.

[@maciedixon3983]

Taylor can do any genre. I’d recommend her rock version of we are never ever getting back together live

[@hickchick112]

I know I’m late to the party, but I was there at AT&T Stadium. I didn’t cry or pass out, but it was a PHENOMENAL show! Saying she commanded the stadium is an understatement.

[@Ahh773]

Omg this brings me back man , me and my sister went to this concert I will never ever forget it. Nothings so far has topped this concert for me and in this past year alone I’ve been to 20+ (still going to more)

[@rafaelainda3801]

Omg guys I LOVE YOUR REACTIONS!!! Greetings from Brazil, please do the Reputation Tour reaction, SHE'S INSANE!

[@TAHBofficial]

Thank you!

[@elizatoscano3610]

“look what you made me do” is a great clip for you to react to, lots of good layers!! and hoast and sad songs: “would've could've should've” and “exile” pleasss…

[@Amberrrr213]

I was at this tour. Which I’m forever thankful I got to see this show in person because it is my favorite album. When she came out I had happy tears for a good couple seconds. It was AMAZING to see this. Seeing her live makes the songs even better. She is amazing every single damn time. Also I got to see Ed Sheeran too. He was one of her opening acts for her Red Tour in 2012. My cousin is a big Ed Sheeran fan so she was more excited than me, I was super excited because it was my first Taylor Swift concert. I got to attend the Res Tour, 1989 tour & Reputation tour.

[@alyssajosette]

can confirm, as someone who's loved taylor since i was 4, i BAWLED my eyes out at the eras tour with my best friend. she's been the soundtrack to whole life truly, and she's responsible for a lot of happy memories for me. she also has an insane ability to write girlhood into her songs, and knowing that she has also experienced things like sexual assault, grooming, manipulative exes etc, she is the only artist i can truly turn to that i know will be able to put my thoughts and pain into words. love watching new swifties being born haha. thanks for these videos, they're really great :)

[@annietrahan7322]

They tell Taylor Swift she can’t do something she’s going to prove them wrong every time you guys should react to I Did Something Bad live

[@r-ln5xw]

If you're into Ed Sheeran, he and Taylor have a couple of songs together you could check out. One song is from Red, called Everything has changed - more of a slow vibe. Endgame is on Reputation and has the same hip hop vibes as Ready For It does. This one also has a Future feature.

[@minyaungsone9614]

The joy I feel when you guys post a video about Taylor Swift 🥹💖

[@clairemannion2]

Guys…Kanye has given Taylor shit for YEARS. In fact she recently said the way she was treated by Kanye and Kim almost destroyed her. And she would be depressed…couldn’t get out of bed but she’s over it now. Listen to ThanK you aIMee by Taylor on her new album and she goes into detail. She is PHENOMENAL and so glad that in the end, she didn’t let them destroy her

[@ellaelizabeth22]

I remember all of this best concert ive ever been too hands down this was the coolest intro ever

[@sirsimonthesentry4787]

You really need to watch I Did Something Bad from Rep Tour or the AMA performance (iconic); Miss Americana documentary for sure.

[@halmond8713]

I vote the rep tour version. While the AMA is good I think there is something more in the rep tour version. And the camera work is better in there imo.

[@krissy4187]

You are partially right about the Kanye thing. Reputation was after Kanye round two that included Kim K

[@TaterCot]

That was a fun one to watch! You honestly had to live through everything that led up to this tour to really comprehend just how epic it was! You mentioned how the die-hard Swifties must have gone crazy to see their favorite artist live, but you have to know that the crazy was amplified by the fact that she had been bullied and ridiculed in the press and on social media after the Kimye drama (and so too were Swifties in genera) to the point of going into hiding so that we did not see her or hear from her for a year. For fans that had been so used to her being so open and connected with her supporters, it was a shock to the system. You can't even comprehend the "mind-blowingness" of the Rep album drop unless you go back and see Taylor's work up until that point and learn about all the drama that took place. Then try to watch the Look What You Made Me Do video with fresh eyes from the perspective of a die-hard. It was a MOMENT!!!! And this concert in person was another MOMENT!!! I often say in these comments that I kind of feel badly for new Swiftie's who will never get to experience it. But I think it's kind of awesome that those of us who didn't buy into the hate and who stuck by Taylor and loved on Rep and bought the tickets to this show get to have that experience all to ourselves. Cause it really was her die-hards that were the ones showing up for Rep. Everyone's a Swiftie now. And everyone wants in on the Eras Tour, even if you don't consider yourself a huge fan. But that Rep tour was for the die-hards who had her back when the rest of the world had jumped aboard the hate train. Happy to have everyone on the Swiftie train now! But the Rep tour will forever be just ours and we will forever be the lucky ones. 😊

[@rociomontero7657]

You should do ‘I did something bad’ or ‘dancing with our hands tied’ from this tour and check out all the NPR tiny desk but specially ‘death by a thousand cuts’. Just binge watched all your TS reactions!!

[@yanigonzalezf]

The Rep tour is so iconic

[@thisisbillgates]

I was at her first Australian eras concert, which was her biggest, at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. I didn't faint, BUT the stadium was shaking A LOT and it was a bit concerning lol
