It is a big day for Taylor Swift. May 8th, 2018 will forever be marked on the musical calendar as Taylor Swift launched one of the biggest tours of her career and also ended a four-year running feud with Katy Perry. The ‘Reputation’ World Tour kicked off today at University of Phoenix stadium in Glendale, Arizona, with a record-breaking attendance of over 59,000 Swifties. And those who attended were in for a treat.
Taylor Swift took the stage with a warm “I missed you guys” which was met by a loud roar from the crowd. The she went on to explain the ‘snakes‘ which has been a theme throughout her ‘Reputation’ album.
“So you’re wondering why there are so many snakes on stage, right? Someone called me a snake on social media and it caught on. And then a lot of people were calling me a lot of things on social media. And I went through some really low times for a while because of it. I went through some times when I didn’t know if I was gonna get to do this anymore. And I guess with the snakes, I wanted to send a message to you guys that if someone uses name-calling to bully you on social media, and even if a lot of people jump on board with it, that doesn’t have to defeat you. It can strengthen you instead.“
Wise words from Taylor to everybody!
We guessed the entire ‘Reputation’ album was about taking a stand against her haters-especially the Kanye West kind. If the society throws bricks at you, why not build a castle out of it?
