Sam Lansky has such a wondrous way with words, and I’ve loved reading his pieces for over a decade. If you’ve ever been around him, you know he’s just the best type of person: Curious. Interested. Hilarious. Intriguing and intrigued. I have tRuSt iSSueS when it comes to interviews but I couldn’t be happier that I did this one with him. I was blown away to see quotes from people I adore and admire like Stevie Nicks, Greta Gerwig, Shonda Rhimes, Phoebe Bridgers, Natalie Maines, Kenny Chesney, and Lucian Grainge. I was so happy he spoke to fans Madison and McCall who were so eloquent, loyal, and kind. I’m really reflecting on this year, and all the years that led up to it. Can’t say thank you enough times. 🥲

Epic. One for this history books. 💜💜💜

WELL. SO. I’ve been counting down for months and finally the ‘I Can See You’ video is out. I wrote this video treatment over a year ago and really wanted to play out symbolically how it’s felt for me to have the fans helping me reclaim my music. I had my heart set on Joey King, Taylor Lautner and Presley Cash starring in it. Joey and Presley had been in the video for ‘Mean’ when they were 9 and 13 and they are back and so ridiculously bad ass!! Taytay is INCREDIBLE in this (didn’t have a stunt double!) and shout out to Tay Lautner for being so awesome to hang with on set. The Tale of 3 Taylors 😆 I always wanted to direct fight scenes/a heist storyline and had the most incredible time plotting this out with my amazing DP Jonathan Sela. So proud of this one.

It’s here. It’s yours, it’s mine, it’s ours. It’s an album I wrote alone about the whims, fantasies, heartaches, dramas and tragedies I lived out as a young woman between 18 and 20. I remember making tracklist after tracklist, obsessing over the right way to tell the story. I had to be ruthless with my choices, and I left behind some songs I am still unfailingly proud of now. Therefore, you have 6 From The Vault tracks! I recorded this album when I was 32 (and still growing up, now) and the memories it brought back filled me with nostalgia and appreciation. For life, for you, for the fact that I get to reclaim my work. Thank you a million times, for the memories that break our fall. 💥🐉🏰  Speak Now (MY VERSION!) is out now.

We know Rep is going to be epic and I can’t wait for vault tracks, but after the eras acoustic Cold As You I realized how amazing it will be to hear her sing Debut songs as an adult. A Place in This World, Tied Together with a Smile… no one is prepared.

A New Years Eve Reputation TV release would be epic! Maybe this is what she’s referring to when referencing counting down.

[book-strings]

Iconic.

[book-strings]

No, for real. Elon, you’re not my mom. Stop telling me to go outside.

cackling

[book-strings]

I am a to-do list person and I need this.

[book-strings]

He better get this fixed before Thursday/Friday. Speak Now TV release deserves it!

okay so apparently elon musk wasn’t intending to limit how many tweets you can read but this was in fact the only cover-up he could think of for the fact that he accidentally made his own website DDOS itself because of how poorly implemented their attempts to make it so you can only view tweets when logged in were. it does mean that this is probably temporary (as elon himself said) but REALLY fucking funny
