Taylor Swift took a moment during one of her Grammy Awards acceptance speeches to announce a new album. Surprisingly, it’s not Reputation (Taylor’s Version). This is something new entirely.
Taylor Swift is now a 13-time Grammy Award winner. During the 66th awards ceremony, the pop singer took home Pop Vocal Album for her 2022 released album, Midnights, which features the smash single “Anti-Hero.”
“Ok, this is my 13th Grammy,” she began her speech, “which is my lucky number. I don’t know if I’ve ever told you that. I want to say thank you to the members of the Recording Academy for voting this way. But I know the way that the Recording Academy voted is a direct reflection of the passion of the fans.”

On a handwritten note, Swift wrote, “And so I enter into evidence, my tarnished coat of arms. My muses, acquired like bruises, my talismans and charms. Tick, tick of love bombs, my veins of pitch black ink.”
