Devoted fans of billionaire pop star Taylor Swift, known for planting clues to her upcoming music releases, have developed their latest theory: that Swift may announce the long-awaited re-recorded version of her 2017 album \u201cReputation\u201d at the American Music Awards on Monday night, though it\u2019s unclear whether she will attend.<\/em><\/p>\n

“Look What You Made Me Do” (Taylor’s Version) was featured in a trailer for “The Handmaid’s Tale”\u00a0… More<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

Key Facts<\/h2>\n
\n
\n

Swifties believe the singer has hidden the number \u201c26\u201d\u2014which they think is a reference to May 26, the date of the American Music Awards\u2014in various places to suggest she may announce new music during the awards ceremony.<\/p>\n

Fans have noticed some merchandise on Swift\u2019s\u00a0website\u00a0is discounted at 26% off, while the order of links\u2014Apparel, Music, Accessories, Sale\u2014spell out \u201cAMAs.\u201d<\/p>\n

Swifties have crunched the numbers, concluding Swift has posted photos from the \u201cReputation\u201d set of the Eras Tour 26 times, and they noticed her total\u00a0Instagram\u00a0post count, 676, is equal to 26 squared.<\/p>\n

Last week, the not-yet-released re-recorded version of \u201cLook What You Made Me Do,\u201d a song from \u201cReputation,\u201d was included in a\u00a0trailer\u00a0for an upcoming episode of \u201cThe Handmaid\u2019s Tale,\u201d though the trailer offered no indication of when the song or album would be released.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Swift is also known for using awards shows to announce her forthcoming releases: She announced \u201cMidnights\u201d at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2022 and \u201cThe Tortured Poets Department\u201d at the Grammy Awards in 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

When Are The American Music Awards?<\/h2>\n

The\u00a0American Music Awards\u00a0air Monday, May 26, at 8 p.m. EDT on CBS and Paramount+. This year\u2019s ceremony is hosted by Jennifer Lopez, who is also slated to perform, with other performers including Janet Jackson, Gwen Stefani, Benson Boone and Ren\u00e9e Rapp. Kendrick Lamar leads the nomination tally with 10, followed by Post Malone with eight. Swift, who has won the most AMAs of all time with 40, has six nominations this year.<\/p>\n

Why Is Swift Re-Recording Her Albums?<\/h2>\n

Swift announced in 2019 she would re-record her first six albums after her former label, Big Machine Records, was purchased by Scooter Braun, a record label executive and former artist manager, giving him the rights to Swift\u2019s master recordings. Swift accused Braun of bullying her and stripping her of the rights to her work, though Braun pushed back and claimed he offered her the opportunity to buy her masters back. Swift began releasing her re-recorded music, subtitled (Taylor\u2019s Version), in 2021, and to date she has re-released four of her first six albums, with only \u201cReputation\u201d and her debut album, \u201cTaylor Swift,\u201d left. All of her re-recorded albums have topped the charts, and they include previously unreleased songs.<\/p>\n

Key Background<\/h2>\n

Swift has long teased fans with clues and Easter eggs hidden in her social media posts, CD booklets, music videos and more. In 2017,\u00a0she said\u00a0the \u201cwhole video\u201d for \u201cLook What You Made Me Do\u201d was an Easter egg, and in 2019, she said she \u201ctrained\u201d her fans to scour her every move for clues. This has caused fans to generate wild theories that aren\u2019t true\u2014like a\u00a0rumor\u00a0she wrote the big-budget movie \u201cArgylle\u201d under a pen name, which was false\u2014though in recent years, she has directly\u00a0challenged\u00a0fans to unscramble the titles of upcoming songs.<\/p>\n

Forbes Valuation<\/h2>\n

Swift\u00a0is the wealthiest woman in music with a net worth of $1.6 billion, according to Forbes estimates. She joined the billionaire ranks in 2023 as the Eras Tour smashed records to become the highest-grossing tour of all time, at more than $2 billion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
