How early is too early for Taylor Swift to start dropping Easter eggs? The limit does not exist.

Yesterday, a brand new countdown showed up on Tay’s website, leading to the reveal of The Life of a Showgirl: The Shiny Bug Edition. The limited run features two new vinyl colors—one in “violet shimmer” marble and one in “wintergreen and onyx” marble. And it looks like Taylor teased them literal years ago in her circa 2022 “The Making of Midnights” TikTok.



I mean. HER MIND.

Taylor revealed how her Easter eggs work just a few days ago on New Heights, saying “I have parameters. There’s dos and donts. I don’t do an Easter egg that ties to my personal life. It points to my music…it’s something you don’t know why I’m saying for a specific reason, but then you’ll look back and go ‘oh my god.’”

She went on to give the example of her NYU honorary doctorate speech, saying “My favorite one of those was when I was giving an honorary doctorate from NYU and I made the commencement speech. And I put so many lyrical easter eggs in that speech that when the Midnights album came out after that, the fans were like ‘The whole speech was an easter egg.’ And that for me is really fun because they find it fun. I love numerology, I love math stuff, I love dates, that stuff I find really fun.”
