Taylor Swift fans can’t seem to shake off the feeling that a major announcement is coming tonight at the Grammys 2024.
And Swifties everywhere are collectively asking, “Are you ready for it?”
The 34-year-old pop star is up for six awards. Her nominations are: Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album for “Midnights;” Best Pop Solo Performance, Song of the Year, Record of the Year, and Record of the Year for “Anti-Hero;” and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for her frosty remix of “Karma,” featuring Ice Spice.
If Swift wins Album of the Year, she will make history as the first artist to win the award four times.
But if that wasn’t enough reason to celebrate, the singer/songwriter’s fandom is convinced that Swift is finally ready to announce her long-awaited new project: “Reputation (Taylor’s Version).”
On February 4, fans noticed a change to Swift’s social media accounts, with her profile photo on Instagram, Facebook and X (the platform formerly known as Twitter) switched to a black and white image reminiscent of the original “Reputation” album art, though the picture itself was from the “Midnights” album photoshoot.
After further analysis of the profile picture, one fan pondered if the picture alluded to a specific time for the album drop: “BLACK AND WHITE PIC FROM MIDNIGHTS = REP TV OUT AT MIDNIGHT ??????”

“Y’all this is an Easter egg,” TikToker Jake Deyton says in a video, referring to the singer’s bad habit (lol) of hiding Easter eggs for her fans to find. He continues, “This a Taylor Swift Easter egg. This is clear as day. This is actually happening. This is going to be an insane night. I am not sure if she is going to wait to win a specific award but this is big.”
Another fan on TikTok, Alex Antonides, called a “Swiftie emergency,” saying, “We all know what this means. ‘Reputation (Taylor’s Version)’ is imminent … I’m shaking, beyond belief. It’s happening.”
“I THOUGHT I WAS READY BUT NOW I’M SCARED,” said a nervous fan. Another wrote in all caps, “NO EXPLANATION, JUST REPUTATION.”
Fans are so ready for a big announcement at the Grammys tonight that “Rep TV” is trending.
“If she ends her damn acceptance speech with ‘There will be no explanation, there will just be reputation’ and just walks off. Like, what do we do? What’s the protocol?” one fan tweeted.
“REPUTATION STANS RISE IT’S OUR TIME TO SHINE,” another Swiftie wrote on X.
Adding more gasoline to the fandom’s fire, on Sunday, Swift’s website appeared to be down, but the error code itself raised some red flag, as it was a custom “321” error code with the message: “hneriergrd.”
Fans will have to wait until the Grammys 2024 tonight to see if their theories are true, but there’s no doubt they are ready for it indeed.
