In This Article:

n May 8, 2018, Taylor Swift began her fifth major concert tour, the Reputation Stadium Tour, which changed the lives of Swifties worldwide. Everyone wanted to be there, and those who couldn't get tickets flocked to social media sites like Tumblr and Instagram to find videos of the magic Swift was creating in each stadium she performed in.

At the time of writing this, only a few shows have been performed, with dozens left to go. However, each night has received rave reviews from both critics and fans. If you are unable to make it to the tour, or if you plan on attending and want to know what to expect, here are 10 highlights from Taylor Swift's Reputation Stadium Tour.

1. The stage

Look at the fireworks!

The first thing you have to know is, there are three stages. Yes, THREE. The main stage is HUGE, with a video screen that covers the wall AND floor! And the two B-stages are out on the floor, close to the fans. The two smaller stages each featured giant snake as she performed on them, and the snake for the main stage makes an appearance during "Look What You Made Me Do."


2. The setlist

There are old favorites, new hits, and everything in between!


3. The surprise songs

Taylor performing "The Best Day" on the Reputation Stadium Tour

Each show features a different song between "Dancing With Our Hands Tied" and "Blank Space." So far, the surprise songs have been "All Too Well," "Wildest Dreams," "The Best Day," "Red," "Holy Ground," Teardrops on My Guitar," "Our Song," "22," "I Knew You Were Trouble," and " I Don't Want To Live Forever."


4. The mashups

The "Long Live"/"New Years Day" mashup is one of the most emotional moments of the show

Oh my GOD, the mashups are brilliant! They're unexpected, but completely make sense (Like "Bad Blood" and "Should've Said No").


5. The outfits

The "Dress" dress!

Taylor Swift is QUEEN when it comes to stage costumes! The outfits on every tour have been amazing, but this one is definitely the hottest!


6. The talent

There is SO MUCH TALENT on this tour! The dancers are incredible, the set designs are amazing, the costumes are gorgeous, and of course, Taylor herself is completely brilliant.


7. The speeches

Pre-"Delicate" Pride Month-inspired speech at the 2nd Chicago show.

One thing Swifty is known for is the heartfelt speeches she gives between songs on tour, and this one definitely does not disappoint.


8. The opening acts

Charli XCX, Camila Cabello, and Taylor Swift.

This is a serious girl-power tour, and having Charli XCX and Camila Cabello open definitely reinforces that idea!


9. The visuals

They're all incredible, but the on-screen visuals for the poem "Why She Disappeared" and the performance of "Getaway Car" are AMAZING! And the sparkling orb she floated to the other stages on? GORGEOUS!


10. The overwhelming joy of being in a stadium full of other fans celebrating you love for Taylor Swift together

It really, truly is one of the greatest feelings ever.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
