Taylor Swift performed the first show of her final leg of the Eras Tour in Toronto last night, and took a minute to address her six (6) Grammy nominations—giving fans all the credit for making it happen.
"You guys did something so amazing over the course of the last few months," she said. "I just mean what you did with embracing The Tortured Poets Department, the album. It's truly blown my mind because it's really emotional for me that this album, I wrote it during the Eras Tour, right?"
"I wrote that album, made that album, all trying to keep it a secret from you guys," Taylor continued. "And then announced the album, and then we basically were, like, working really hard to secretly put together a new chapter in the Eras Tour of The Tortured Poets Department, and we wanted to surprise you with it, and we did. And you guys have been so wonderful about digging into this album and really understanding where I was coming from with it. You made it by far the biggest debut week I've ever had with an album and you kept that album at number one for nearly four months."
She added, "And the most recent thing that you did, because everything that happens is a direct reflection of the passion that you show, is you guys got this album nominated for six Grammys. It's so unbelievable, so thank you."
FYI, Taylor is nominated for Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Pop Duo/Group Performance, Best Pop Vocal Album, and Best Music Video. The Grammys take place on February 2, 2025, so tune in to see how many of these she takes home.
