Fans track every move that Taylor Swift makes \u2013 but what happens when she makes no move and doesn\u2019t show up to the AMAs?<\/em><\/p>\n

Ever since an extended version of \u2018Look What You Made Me Do\u2019 aired on the penultimate episode of The Handmaid\u2019s Tale, hopes had been renewed that Taylor Swift was about to announce Reputation (Taylor\u2019s Version).<\/p>\n

The album is next in line to be re-recorded, in the musician\u2019s efforts to reclaim her back catalogue.<\/p>\n

Other clues that Swifties had analysed included Swift\u2019s online store being newly categorised into apparel, music, accessories, sale, which spells out AMAs, and various clues pointing to the number 26 \u2013 the date of the AMAs in America.<\/p>\n

However, while some people had hoped that the AMAs would be the perfect time to announce the new album, Taylor Swift dashed those hopes by not showing up at all.<\/p>\n

That breaks from tradition, with Swift having attended 10 times now and often taking home awards at the annual award show.<\/p>\n

This year, despite being nominated for six awards, including Artist of the Year, Album of the Year and Favorite Pop Album for \u2018The Tortured Poets Department,\u2019 Collaboration of the Year for \u2018Fortnight (featuring Post Malone),\u2019 Favorite Touring Artist for her \u2018Eras Tour,\u2019 and Favorite Female Pop Artist, Swift didn\u2019t take home any awards.<\/p>\n

Swifties have immediately begun speculating that 26 now refers to 26 for reputation (Taylor\u2019s Version) \u2013 but only time will tell.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Why wasn\u2019t Taylor Swift at the AMAs?<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

Although Swifties were shocked by her not appearing, it perhaps shouldn\u2019t come as a surprise.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Swift has increasingly been passing up red carpet events, having only attended two such public showings in 2025, the Grammy Awards and the Super Bowl.<\/p>\n

Although Swift and her team haven\u2019t directly addressed her absences, the fever pitch of attention on the singer might have something to do with it.<\/p>\n

Wherever Swift goes, attention follows and she might simply be trying to have a lower profile in the aftermath of her Eras Tour.<\/p>\n

Indeed, sources recently suggested that she is staying out of the Blake Lively versus Justin Baldoni legal case, another sign that she\u2019s attempting to fly under the radar for the time being.<\/p>\n

Could she be looking for peace and quiet as she works on reputation (Taylor\u2019s Version)? We\u2019ll have to wait and see.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
