Taylor Swift Known for Dropping ‘Easter Eggs’
The term “Easter eggs” has been used in pop culture for quite some time. It references hidden messages artists leave in their projects. Since the beginning of her career, Taylor has dropped hints in her songs, music videos, and social media posts.
From her red scarf in All Too Well to her liner notes in capital letters on her albums, there are countless “Easter eggs” for Taylor’s fans to uncover. In fact, many Swifties feel like every release is like an Easter egg hunt.
According to People magazine, “More recently, [Taylor] teased the release of her upcoming album, The Tortured Poet’s Department, before announcing its existence and release date at the 2024 Grammy Awards on Feb. 4.”
“In the music video for her song ‘Bejeweled’ from the album Midnights, Swift held a clock in her hands that said ‘Exile ends’ with the numbers two and three on it. Looking back, fans realized that 2/3 marked the day before she announced her new Era.”
Happy belated Easter, Swifties!
