Are Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter Collaborating? These Fan Theories Think So
If Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter's music tops your Spotify Wrapped at the end of each year, you're probably hoping for the day the singer-songwriters jump on a song together. The Tortured Poets Department artist has previously dropped music with Gracie Abrams, another Eras Tour opener who works with one of Tay's go-to producers, Aaron Dessner. On top of being good friends and past tourmates, Taylor and Sabrina have also found a frequent collaborator in Jack Antonoff. That being said, the concept isn't entirely far-fetched. While neither of the Grammy winners has explicitly hinted or confirmed anything, Swifties and Carpenters have already started sharing their guesses across social media. Could a Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter collaboration finally be on the way? These fan theories make quite the case... Taybrina truthers, rise! A lot of fans pointed out similarities in recent social posts from the stars, which could potentially point to a collab. We all know Tay loves her Easter eggs, and as Sabrina's star rises, she's started employing them, too... That's that me, separate, unrelated announcements from the pop stars. When Taylor revealed that she officially owns her entire music catalog on May 31, there were small coffee-stained details on a social post promoting her letter. Aaand when Sabrina announced her Short n' Sweet follow-up, Man's Best Friend, on June 11, her newsletter also included a coffee-stained ring: It could simply be a there's a slim chance that it's not. Dare we say it's giving 'five holes in the fence'? The same day Sabrina dropped the news about her upcoming album, Taylor Nation shared that Tay released a new merch collection inspired by her catalog. Eagle-eyed fans pointed out that both stars have new logos on their websites—Sabrina for her new era, and Taylor for her merch drop. However, another Swiftie shared that Taylor has been using the cursive 'S' in design elements since 2023. It may be June, but Taylor's official fan account used her song 'August' in the above announcement. Some fans figured it could point to a collaboration with Sabrina, as the 'Manchild' singer shared that Man's Best Friend is set to drop on August 29. Neither Taylor nor Sabrina has weighed in on whether they're collaborating yet, but we'll be waiting here and holding out for a joint effort from the blondies.

Travis Kelce's mom Donna Kelce joins The Traitors Season 4 with a Taylor Swift nod; Swifties are already cheering her on
Donna Kelce is stepping into the ultimate game of deception at an ancient Scottish castle as a cast member on The Traitors Season 4, and the NFL mom already has a fan following backing her up after she showed up with a not-so-subtle wink to her son Travis Kelce's girlfriend, Taylor Swift. Several eagle-eyed Swifties spotted a Tortured Poets Department bracelet in her promo photos, and let's just say she has already won the internet. Donna Kelce joins The Traitors Season 4 Donna Kelce has often been spotted in the stands cheering for her sons, Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce, but now she's ready to take centre stage. She's joining a star-studded lineup of competitors for the fourth installment of Peacock's hit series The Traitors, hosted by the ever-iconic Alan Cumming. The game is a twisted mix of trust and betrayal, where contestants must outwit secret 'traitors' among them in hopes of taking home a chunk of the $250,000 prize. Honestly, if surviving two NFL sons under one roof doesn't prep you for this, what does? Who else will be joining Donna Kelce for Traitors Season 4? On June 13, host Alan Cumming dramatically unveiled the full cast in a now-viral TikTok video posted by Peacock. Dressed in one of his signature plaid ensembles, Cumming teased the chaos to come with lines like, 'The fates whisper of betrayal, backstabbing, and the occasional dagger in the dark.' Along with Donna Kelce, the cast lineup features a mix of reality TV royalty, Olympians, and surprise additions. Check out the complete list below: Lisa Rinna (Real Housewives of Beverly Hills) Donna Kelce (NFL mom, Glamour Woman of the Year) Tiffany Mitchell (Big Brother) Stephen Colletti (Laguna Beach, One Tree Hill) Tara Lipinski (Olympic figure skater) Johnny Weir (Olympic figure skater) Rob Rausch (Love Island USA) Kristen Kish (Top Chef) Michael Rapaport (actor and comedian) Porsha Williams (Real Housewives of Atlanta) Rob Cesternino (Survivor) Ron Funches (comedian) Maura Higgins (Love Island UK) Candiace Dillard Bassett (Real Housewives of Potomac) Yamil 'Yam Yam' Arocho (Survivor) Eric Nam (singer-songwriter and host) Monét X Change (RuPaul's Drag Race) Natalie Anderson (The Amazing Race, Survivor) Mark Ballas (Dancing with the Stars) Colton Underwood (The Bachelor) Caroline Stanbury (Real Housewives of Dubai) Ian Terry (Big Brother) Dorinda Medley (Real Housewives of New York City) 🚨 The Traitors US Season 4 Cast Reveal 🚨 As for the premiere date, Peacock hasn't dropped the exact release yet, but if tradition holds, the show is expected to return in early 2026, likely in January, as previous seasons have followed that same winter schedule. That Taylor Swift bracelet wasn't just for show While Donna Kelce's appearance in itself was a surprise to fans, what really has the internet talking is the gold 'TTPD' bracelet on Donna's wrist in her Traitors promo shots. It's official merch from Swift's The Tortured Poets Department album, and fans who have been following the singer's romance with her NFL beau would know how supportive Donna has been of them. Is Donna Kelce wearing the TTPD bracelet 😭 More about Donna Kelce Donna Kelce became America's Football Mom during the 2023 Super Bowl when both her sons went head-to-head, and she handled it with pure class. But since then, her profile has skyrocketed. She's done late-night appearances, has fans of her own, and her pop culture cred only doubled once Taylor Swift entered the picture.

Fans Search ‘Did Taylor Swift Win Any AMAs 2025?' After the Event
Wondering if Taylor Swift won big at the 2025 American Music Awards (AMAs)? The pop icon was nominated in multiple major categories at this year's American Music Awards, sparking widespread buzz among fans and speculation about a possible sweep. With six nods tied to her Tortured Poets Department era, anticipation ran high ahead of the Las Vegas ceremony. Here's what we know so far about Taylor Swift's AMAs 2025 performance, her nominations, and how the night unfolded. Taylor Swift did not win any awards at the 2025 American Music Awards despite receiving six nominations. She was nominated for Artist of the Year, Favorite Female Pop Artist, Favorite Touring Artist, Album of the Year, Favorite Pop Album, and Collaboration of the Year. Billie Eilish won all five pop and touring-related categories. Her wins included Artist of the Year and Album of the Year for Hit Me Hard and Soft. Collaboration of the Year went to Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars for 'Die With A Smile.' Swift did not attend the May 26 event at Fontainebleau Las Vegas. She has not made any public statement about the snub. In the lead-up to the show, fans promoted voting efforts online. Many pointed to Easter eggs on her official store site that hinted at AMAs-related announcements. Before 2025, Swift had earned a record 40 AMAs, making her the most-awarded artist in the show's history. Her last appearance at the ceremony was in 2022, where she won six trophies. The AMAs did not take place in 2023 or 2024. In 2025, Swift has mostly stayed away from public events. She skipped the iHeartRadio Music Awards in March but shared a video message after winning nine awards. These included Tour of the Century and Favorite Pop Album. Her last major appearances were at the 2025 Grammy Awards in February and the Super Bowl, where she supported her partner Travis Kelce. Originally reported by Anubhav Chaudhry on ComingSoon.

Taylor Swift dropping new album on Memorial Day? Fans pick up ‘hidden' clues
Taylor Swift has sent her loyal fans buzzing once again with her hidden clues, many of which they believe to be pointing towards a big announcement at the American Music Awards on May 26 this year. After finishing her record-breaking Eras tour in Vancouver last year, Swift has carefully kept herself hidden from the public eye, apart from a few appearances here and there with her boyfriend Travis Kelce. However, ever-eager 'Swifties' have been working overtime to decipher the string of Easter eggs left by Swift, which may be pointing to the re-release of previous music or maybe even a new album. Read More: Taylor Swift song used during rebellion in The Handmaid's Tale episode; internet calls it dystopia's 'revenge anthem' Dedicated fans of Swift have long been on the wait for her to re-record her two remaining 'masters'- Reputation and her debut album. Her last re-recorded album, 1989 (Taylor's Version), came out in October 2023 and it's been well over a year since she dropped the Tortured Poets Department as well. This and the fact that Taylor's last six-month trademark extension to re-record these two remaining albums has given many the hope that Swift will drop these covers before losing the rights to do so. Eagle-eyed fans have noted a recent change in Swift's merch website. On scrolling down, her clickable links have been arranged in the order of apparel, music, accessories, sale- an obvious acronym for AMAS. Previously, it was organised in the manner of sale, music, and accessories, followed by home. Additionally, the website has also introduced a 26% discount on 12 items. Since Swift's next release will be her twelfth album, many fans speculate that this could also be pointing towards the release of new music altogether. Read More: Travis Kelce is fuming over Trump's Taylor Swift dig: 'He is so mad that...' Swift has built a reputation for using her website to tease new releases in the past as well, when she used a phrase from her song 'Willow' as a coupon code about a month before the 'Evermore' album was dropped. Her merchandise pricing for signed CDs of Fearless (Taylor's Version) was $19.89 two years before 1989 (Taylor's Version) came out. Swift's codes go beyond just her website into her award-show fashion as well. Swift accepted her 2023 Grammy for 'Album of the Year' in a blue dress- the signature colour of 'Midnights'. She then opted for a white dress the year after that, where she announced 'The Tortured Poets Department' at the ceremony. This year, Swift opted for a red dres,s which doesn't match the theme of any of her previous albums. Fans speculate that Swift planned to wear these three colours, representing the American flag- red, white, and blue- beforehand so that she could make a huge announcement at the AMAs this year, which also happens to be on Memorial Day. However, certain people are also willing to bet their money on July 4 for the release of new music, given Taylor's previous regard for this date. To add to the swirl of upending excitement, recently a re-recorded version of the track 'Look What You Made Me Do' from the 'Reputation' album was played in an episode of The Handmaid's Tale. Swift hasn't performed at the AMAS since 2019 when she had a major public falling out with Scooter Braun. Fans are hopeful that a big announcement on the same day, six years later, would be symbolic of her fight to reclaim the rights to her 'masters' albums. Despite being nominated for six awards this year, it's unclear whether Swift is scheduled to perform at the event as well.

Travis Kelce Goes Husband Mode for Taylor Swift's Guitar with 15,000 USD Bid Creating Enviable Moment; Watch
Travis Kelce made headlines at the Patrick Mahomes 15 and the Mahomies Foundation Vegas Golf Classic charity gala on Thursday, May 15, when he placed a USD 15,000 bid on a Taylor Swift-signed Tortured Poets Department guitar, only to jokingly bow out with a husband-like quip that had the audience laughing. The signed guitar, donated by Swift herself, was one of the top auction items at the event held in Las Vegas. In a video posted by Instagram user Lauren Door, Kelce was seen holding up his auction paddle as the bid on the guitar climbed from USD 10,000 to USD 15,000. Standing beside him at the table was Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, seemingly ready to support the moment. Just as the bidding reached USD 15,000, Kelce sat down and was heard joking, 'I just realized I have that already,' drawing laughter from the crowd. The playful moment quickly made the rounds on social media, with fans reacting warmly. One fan on X (formerly Twitter) wrote, 'Aww, his comment is soooo cute!' Another added, 'He's flexing. I'm so jealous of him.' Others chimed in with reactions like 'just cute as heck,' and 'He's the biggest Swiftie ever.' Some even speculated Kelce's bid was meant to boost interest in the auction item. 'Bet on it to raise the offer then bowed out,' one person commented. Although Taylor Swift was not in attendance this year, she did join Kelce at last year's event, where she was seen smiling and enjoying his antics. This time, her presence was still felt, especially with the guitar from her latest album The Tortured Poets Department, which was a direct donation for the auction. Travis Kelce has been open about being a longtime Swiftie and often supports Swift both publicly and privately. This lighthearted auction moment further cemented his image as a supportive partner, with fans affectionately calling it a 'husband move.' In the end, the signed Taylor Swift guitar went to another bidder, but Kelce's sweet and funny moment stole the show.
