Taylor Swift is always five steps ahead of her fans, and we’re struggling to keep up, even when she hides clues in plain sight.
The latest fan theory to come out of the Swiftie universe involves her Instagram captions, because that’s really all the information we have to go on right now (besides all the posts the singer likes on Tumblr). As someone at BuzzFeed first recognized, when Taylor announced the first single off of Reputation, “Look What You Made Me Do,” she also blatantly gave us a clue about the second single “… Ready For It?“—we just didn’t know it at the time.
When announcing “Look What You Made Me Do,” Taylor captioned her Instagram announcement, “…ready for it? New single #LookWhatYouMadeMeDo out now. Pre-order #reputation (link in bio) and find out about tickets and merch at taylorswift.com.” So, obviously, the name of the second song was revealed a little over a week later, the world re-read her Instagrams a little closer. Now, some social media users think the third track will be called “A Second Glance,” says Buzzfeed, after she wrote, “A second glance into #reputation…ready for it? Link in bio,” on Instagram to reveal her second single.
This is hardly the first fan theory stemming from Taylor’s new album. Fans have jumped on everything from Kanye West and Kim Kardashian shade to Beyoncé references to hidden squad mentions, not to mention those theories that she liked on Tumblr. Fans have dissected the new song and video within an inch of its life, and we’re still as confused as ever, TBH.
November 10 seriously can not come soon enough.
