December 13th 2024.
It's been a monumental year for the talented musician, Taylor Swift. The past few days alone have seen her wrap up her highly successful Eras Tour, celebrate her 35th birthday, and make a heartwarming visit to a children's hospital in Kansas City. While this might seem like an overwhelming feat for the average person, for Taylor, who is known for her incredible productivity, it's just another week. Although, perhaps a slightly more eventful one than usual.
But now, with the conclusion of her record-breaking 149 date tour, Taylor finally has some time to relax and recharge. After a year filled with non-stop traveling, a new album release, and numerous broken records, she's ready to swap her hectic schedule for a more laid-back and well-deserved break. With multiple homes to choose from, including her stunning $150 million penthouse in Manhattan's TriBeCa neighborhood and a sprawling historical landmark in California, it's uncertain where the popstar and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, will settle down for the winter season.
But with no obligations or commitments, and Christmas just around the corner, Taylor can finally enjoy the freedom of doing whatever she wants. According to a source close to the singer who spoke to People magazine, that means taking some time to rest and rejuvenate. She's eagerly looking forward to a holiday break, although it won't last for too long. As hinted in her recently released book, she'll be back in action and ready to see her fans in the next era.
As we eagerly wait to see what Taylor has in store for us, let's take a look back at some of her top moments from the past year. From her new-found love for PDA with boyfriend Travis Kelce, to her highly-anticipated album announcement at the Grammys, to her record-breaking achievements, it's been a truly sensational year for the singer.
It all started with Taylor's newfound love for public displays of affection, or as fans like to call it, her PDA era. After being spotted locking lips with her beau, Travis Kelce, on the football field in January, the couple has been no strangers to showing off their love for each other. This might not be unusual for most couples, but for Taylor, who kept her previous relationship with British actor Joe Alwyn very private, it was a huge and significant moment for her and her fans.
But that was just the beginning. At the Grammy Awards, where Miley Cyrus, Victoria Monét, and SZA all had their own share of memorable wins, it was Taylor who stole the show. Dressed in a stunning white gown, she caused a buzz among her fans on social media, who were eagerly speculating about her possible album announcement. Although that didn't come true, Taylor did surprise us all by announcing her eleventh studio album, "The Tortured Poets Department," during her acceptance speech for winning the Album of the Year award for the fourth time in her career.
And the record-breaking streak continued for Taylor throughout the year. From her highly successful Eras Tour, which is projected to become the highest-grossing tour of all time, to her numerous award wins, including two Billboard honours and seven MTV Video Music Awards, it was clear from the beginning that 2024 was going to be an exceptional year for the singer. She even outdid the legendary Michael Jackson by having eight shows at Wembley Stadium, the most by any artist, although that record might soon be taken off her as Coldplay is set to play ten shows at the venue next year.
And let's not forget the special guests at Taylor's London shows, including Ed Sheeran, Florence Welch, and the Duke of Cambridge, Prince William, who chose to celebrate his 42nd birthday at one of her concerts. Along with Prince George and Princess Charlotte, the royal family danced the night away before meeting Taylor backstage. The singer even shared some photos on her Instagram, expressing her joy at having them at her show.
Another huge milestone for Taylor this year was the release of her Eras Tour book, which featured over 500 images, personal reflections written by Taylor, and never-before-seen performance shots. The book was a huge hit among fans, selling over 814,000 copies in the first weekend alone, and becoming the second-biggest nonfiction debut after President Barack Obama's "A Promised Land."
Now, as the year comes to a close and the Eras Tour is officially over, everyone is wondering, "What's next for Taylor?" While we may not know the answer just yet, one thing is for sure, we can't wait to see what she has in store for us. So, stay tuned, because we'll be here to report on all of Taylor's future endeavors. And who knows, maybe 2025 will be an even bigger year for the talented musician.
