Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, we
have a special guest today. She's been

performing for crowds since she was 8
years old. 12 -year -old Taylor Swift.

Hey, everybody. I'm Taylor.

I'm going to be doing some songs for you
guys tonight. I hope you guys are

having a great time.

Very early on, she just knew she was
going to have to work hard.

I mean,

it depends on how far back we want to
go.

But it escalated from school play,
theater group, karaoke nights.

I'm going to be doing some songs for you
guys, and I hope you guys are having a

great time because I sure am.

Calling around to festivals and
amusement parks to see if there was a

little kid with a guitar and a couple of
speakers.

It was as basic as you can possibly
imagine, dragging guitars through

Piling them into a rental car, hit
another city, another city, and just

going.

And she, from a very early age, always
knew exactly how she wanted things to

And she was always planning what her
headline tour would be like.

You know, I never heard her say the word
fame or money.

It was always just about the opportunity
to go sing her

songs and have everybody else singing
those same words back to her.

She would do these theaters, and they
kept getting bigger and bigger and sold

out faster and faster.

So it was a gradual thing.

I don't think that when you are doing
that, you ever for a split second

take the time to think, it will become
this.

The European tour was so intense that by
the end, I was exhausted

past a point that I can remember.

So we need the break after Wembley to
recharge not only our

bodies, our energy, but our passion for
giving that much every night.

So that by the time we got back to the U
.S., We were all just, like, fired up.

Since we finished the massive

European leg of the Heirs Tour, it's
really just been trying to get back up

speed, being home.

We have this two -month break.

We'll kind of regroup and catch our
breath a little bit.

I'm taking care of my home life, and
then we'll get ready for the final push.

I love traveling. I love my job. It's
the best.

And, like, everything's planned for us,
and then you get home and you're like,

what do I do?

And you have to learn how to schedule
things for yourself again.

So I'm really excited for this break so
that I can sit right here.

And practice.

I do live with my parents, my little
brother, and my grandma.

I love coming home to them, getting,
like, home -cooked meals and stuff.

I am eventually going to get my own
apartment in L .A.

Definitely,

for sure.

It's a long time to be away.

Rachel and I don't have children, but, I
mean, I went crazy how much I miss the

dog.

You know, just trying to get back into
being a normal human and having a

schedule and adulting. Trying to get
life back together.

Four months is a long time to just check
out and have fun, but come back to,

like, oh, reality, my car registration.

Yikes.

Love this, love this, love this, love
this, love this, love this, love this,

love this, love this, love this, love
this, love this.

Okay.

So we'll just start in show order. Yeah,
let's put on all the... You know, if

you want, we can take these for a spin
for the run -through.

Sunset. Hello, Miami.

Yeah, this should be first, probably.

So pretty.

Nostalgia is a huge part of the era's
tour.

If you were 12 years old during the Red
Era...

you're going to remember certain things
that you saw and certain things that you

felt. It's my job to bring those
feelings and those visuals back to you.

Wardrobe is one way to do that. Oh, I
love it.

Oh, I'm so excited.

The costume design for the Heiress Tour
was undertaken by my longtime stylist,

Joseph Cassell. He's been with me since
I was 16.

The Heiress Tour is...

All about the fans, you know.

The reason I'm able to do my job so well
is because I am a fan, too.

I love the organic way that Taylor and I
work. It's like the secret language

that we have.

She would send me images. She'll be
like, ooh, send me an image. And I'm

aha.

Tiffany last night, and I pulled about
50 different pictures from online for

acoustic set.

Awesome. I want it to be all 50 dresses.

For the tour, we chose to be a little
reflective and sentimental and tie in

the designers who had been with Taylor
from the beginning.

I mean, dancing all night. Yeah, my feet
ache, but I'm wearing Louboutins.

Like, it is a privilege for these feet
to ache like this.

This was designed by Roberto Cavalli.
She puts it on in the dark on stage.

The Magic of Velcro. The video for 22. I
remember it like it was yesterday.

Reputation. These strips are all
sequined by hand.

Cavalli, 1989.

I remember meeting with Versace and
Milan.

And I was like, oh my gosh.

When you see the Versace bodysuit just
made of all these crystals and the

light hits it and it's a...

Oh, so obsessed with this. This is my
new favorite for sure. It somehow like

heals me from having the stomach flu.

It can take me from being utterly
exhausted.

I'm just like, nope, if I'm wearing
this, I got to level up. I got to be on

level of this outfit.

So here's another option of the coat.

It's less overtly military, you know?

When I start working on something with
tea... You want to try the white one?

I'm only thinking about the effect that
it has on her. Oh, my God.

That's amazing.

Until I step into a stadium, and I'm,
like, blown away.

Thousands of people dressed in a way
that reflects one of Taylor's looks.

They use tape, they use stones, they use
whatever.

I love her. She has an outfit with a lot
of rainbow fringe.

That's kind of where this came in.

The commitment the fans have is beyond
the music.

There's a connection on a deep...

Soul level with Taylor. During her New
Jersey concert, Taylor debuted a new

dress in this beautiful burgundy. Again,
like the jacket.

I really love this one.

The costumes generally mean a lot, but
reputation was

monumental.

My favorite part of the show is the
reputation set. My mom made this outfit

scratch. I have like a reputation
bodysuit inside.

I love it. It tears into a bodysuit.

I'm a reputation girl, of course.

Taylor Swift's most iconic outfit on the
Heiress Tour is, of course, this never

-changing reputation bodysuit. Which
we've only gotten one the entire 131

What we're waiting for right now is to
see if Taylor Swift is going to come out

with a new reputation outfit. What's the
theme?

Same outfit, yeah. We were clowning.

We keep waiting for a new reputation
bodysuit just for funsies. If you were

have a new reputation bodysuit, what
would you want it to look like?

This is the new one.

This is the new one? Yeah.

Oh,

it doesn't look bad at all. No, it does.

It does.

See this?

It's got to come up. It has to come up
because they think my boobs are here,

they're here, you know? The original
catsuit was made from a different

That was all the fabric that there was
in the world, so we had to recreate the

fabric for the second one and for this
one. I know what you mean. Yeah, it's

just really annoying, and I have to do
really athletic shit in this. We thought

we could fix it because there was no
time for them to actually recreate a new

one in time for Miami.

They couldn't do it.

tour gift wall where at the end of each
tour we get a plaque thanking us for

participating in the tour.

This was my first tour with her.

I started with Taylor in 2009.

In the trajectory of my professional
life and career, yeah, that's probably

zero to 60 right there.

Strapped onto that rocket and have been
able to do all of this with her, which

is great.

Remember this? Oh.

It was her first birthday present from
Taylor.

It's got a little photo of Mommy and
Sophie, Daddy and Sophie, and then Miss

Taylor, as she calls her. Yes, Miss
Taylor.

We had both our kids while I was working
for her, so she was kind of around both

of the births, and I think that this was
the first child. Yeah, it was the first

kid born while in the band.

And so, yeah, I think it was a special
moment. Yeah.

Yeah.

It's so wonderful being able to carry a
professional family with you

as you go through phases of life, as you
go through ups and downs and

heartbreaks.

There is such a special bond among the
touring family.

It's like having another family.

They're the only other people really in
the world who know what this is like.

Before the show, after the show, on the
off days, we are like this.

And that's not normal.

It's like she's handpicked these
incredible people to be a part of this

Most of the people I'm out here on the
road with have known me since high

school.

But also, there are people that I just
got to know in this phase of my

life. Jeslyn is one of the most
talented, resilient, loving people I've

ever been around.

She was the newest addition to our
backup singers.

I started with her reputation.

I had never done a stadium tour before.
And so the first show was just like,

whoa, this is a lot of people.

We've been singing together for a couple
of years.

And when Jessalyn got sick, it was the
first blow

that the tour family experienced
emotionally.

It was like completely unfathomable to
us.

Sucks.

While on tour, I was diagnosed with
breast cancer.

And obviously it was devastating.

But every weekend we had a show, so I
still flew to the next city, did a show

with everyone, and in the middle of the
week when we weren't doing shows, I

would fly back to L .A. and just have
biopsies and just poked and prodded to

learn really what I had to do treatment
-wise, and then hopped back on stage and

pretended like... Nothing was happening.

I'll never forget when she told us.

Everyone was just in shambles.

And it's the not knowing.

When I let Taylor know, she came
storming in with hugs and crying and

saying, I'm so sorry. And her mom said,
you just take care of you and we'll be

here when you're ready.

So six months, I had to, like, take off
and go through chemo, surgery.

I had edema. I had, like, skin issues.

I usually have all this curly hair.

I lost about 75 % of my hair. I felt and
looked completely different.

And just kind of watched my friends on
live streams in the show.

It was a hard one because we got to come
be together for months.

She was home by herself, isolated from

the family.

We just wanted her to know that no
matter what, under any circumstances, if

wanted to come back, she could.

Goodbye treatment.

I said, how quickly can I get back on
tour after I'm done with radiation?

My doctor said, that night.

But you have to get back into shape.

She literally finished radiation and got
on a plane.

I actually have a video of when we saw
each other at the hotel.

Just coming back to this joy -filled
show and these people just emphasize

even more how much we're a family.

I cannot believe that she was back in a
few months.

The will to come back and do the hardest
show ever.

None of us could believe it.

I still can't.

blacked out right you just keep your
body still in no way do i ever apply

to my at any point in the show just want
to flag that as i

do every time i have to pull ups and 12
strong

dislike two thumbs down You have gotten
stronger on

those throughout the years.

It's from all the pent -up rage and
resentment I have for them.

Do you leave on Thursday night?

Thursday morning, go there, do a full
run -through in the stadium, which I'm

really excited about, with costumes.

I want to be, like, back in it so much
that I can, like, not be so, like,

remember your stuff that you don't want
to forget, like, you know?

You don't want to see me do this without
rehearsal.

That's what you don't want. Yeah.

There are a lot of things that we pulled
off on this tour that I've never even

attempted on past tours.

I think the longest show I ever did
before was two hours and 15 minutes.

I never would have believed you if you
would have told me we would be doing a

three and a half hour show.

Now, saying that is one thing.

Doing that physically is another.

I've never worked out this much in my
life. It's horrible.

I really had to up my game in terms of
physical training.

Six months ahead of my first rehearsal,
running on the treadmill every single

day at the tempo of the songs that I was
playing while singing them.

out loud.

You just don't want them to see you
panting.

1989 and reputation are very high
cardio.

Anything's hard when you're scaling a
stage that goes the entire length of an

NFL stadium.

I think I run like eight miles in the
show.

Once we get to Miami, the turnaround
time from landing and performing will be

very short.

We leave in six days.

Haven't played the show in a couple
months. And there are some things I want

make sure that I don't mess up.

Shake,

shake, shake.

Oh, we are so back.

Can I do a video, like, out in the
stadium with my cat?

We'll find a place out in the stadium,
but it'll be, like, me walking in with

cat, just, like, take my sunglasses off.

And, like, so it would be behind me, and
then once I stop, start going around me

like this.

It's basically like we're back in the
office. You know? And I've got my most

well -behaved cat for it.

She is my best one.

What an idiot.

Shirt's going backwards.

I knew something looked weird.

It's wild being back. So it's lots of
hugging, telling the same story like 50

times as far as what you've been up to
over the break. It's awesome. It's

awesome to be back. It doesn't feel like
work.

We are starting our last leg of this
tour.

We have 18 more shows left, which is
very bittersweet. It's very sad.

We're cramming.

Yeah, cramming for the test.

at miami stadium i'm a little nervous
but but you know because we want it to

good oh man well okay let's see what i
remember

i keep thinking today is a show day huh
i keep

thinking today is a show day it is a
show day it is a show day in my brain it

has to be a show day i have got to like
i need to do a full run through because

my brain just It's like I can't remember
a single part of the show.

We should all treat tonight like a show
day. Show day.

Fitting time.

Oh,

when are you bringing out new reps?

That's what I was about to say. Are we
actually going to get new reps? I know.

I'm like, I got really excited all of a
sudden. I got to see if this can even

happen because they put my boob cup on
my rib cage.

Either way, I want to see it.

It's not that beautiful the way it fits
me now.

Wow.

Oh,

my God.

I don't know how you guys managed this.

Oh, wait.

How does it fit so well?

This is beautiful.

Nothing's gonna pop out and look it's
like it's in this how does in the right

spot because you guys took the cups out
what happened?

Oh It's now my favorite I didn't I'm
shocked

I don't know. I don't know. I don't know
I

don't know how you feel.

I truly don't. When I tell you guys that
the bra was in a corset here.

Like a second row of others.

I'm so excited. I'm so excited.

I've never had an alternate outfit for
the reputation section. Not once.

People are going to lose their minds.

As we were getting ready to go back into
the shows again, Taylor was like, Mom,

I'm really worried.

I'm trying to go back in my mind and run
through the show.

And I get to certain spots and it just
stops.

And I said, don't worry about it.

You're going to get back on that stage
and everything will come flooding back.

I guarantee it.

And I hoped that I was right, but I
didn't know.

Performing that show.

It's incredibly technical and hard.

This tour isn't kind of like, oh, we
just fly by the seat of our pants around

here. No, like we stage manage the shit
out of this show.

We're dealing with lots of production
elements, lighting, screen content,

pyro, moving floors, confetti, costumes,
choreography.

There's so many moving parts and it has
to be.

No mistakes.

Perfect timing.

There's a lot going on that happens
really fast. A lot of fast cues from

one end of the stage to the other.

CP and a lift up.

Go. It's nerve -wracking.

3 .3.

It takes a lot taking the right stuff
out at the right times, so we all have

communicate well. We're always moving.

The wings can be challenging.

We have had instances where they broke.

If there's high winds, it gets really
hard for them because it's super heavy.

Q4301, go.

She's singing.

and having to engage, and having to
figure out what's coming next.

She has some flexibility in where she
might go, but there are sometimes when

it's very exact.

And if she's not standing in the right
place, it's actually dangerous.

I don't want to fall in a hole, and I
don't want to have, like, pyro go off on

my head. I legitimately celebrate, like,
every moment that something doesn't go

wrong.

Everybody is firing on all cylinders.

I work in the wardrobe department.

And I also am one of Taylor's dressers.
There's two of us.

Every outfit change is about a minute
and 15 or less.

Our fastest quick change, though, is 39
seconds with her in the room.

Those quick changes are like nothing
you've ever seen before.

It is like watching a NASCAR race.

How many quick changes does she have?

20 quick changes.

Our crew helped us build four quick
change booths. From there, we kind of

through the underworld of the stage.

It's all very, very fast.

We don't really have time for snags.
It's very choreographed. Every second

counts. Every millisecond counts.

There were moments where I thought, I
don't know if...

These costume changes are going to
happen in time.

I'm only off the stage for a maximum of
two minutes at a time.

Those transitions, it's like I'm going
under the stage. I'm getting on a weird

like pulley system.

I'm getting pulled over here.

Meanwhile, I'm unzipping my thing. I'm
running upstairs. I'm going into a

different quick change room on a whole
different floor.

I'm ripping this off. I'm putting this
on.

Stomp your feet three times. It's
literally the most complicated.

You have no idea the panic of worrying
you're not going to be dressed in time

for the song to start.

And it is that panic that drives me to
never be late.

I remember one time I was running from
the Evermore era.

I trip over the hem of my dress, bust my
knee.

I skid.

The palm of my hand off.

Hobble into the quick change room.

Blood's coming down my hand. I'm
changing into the reputation bodysuit.

that's slapping off, I just pull it off.
More blood. They don't have a band -aid

back there.

Dun, dun, dun. Wasn't late.

Wasn't late for the intro of that song.

The fans noticed it a couple days later.
They're like, oh, her palm's gone.

I was like, I am not acknowledging this.

Nothing's wrong.

It's always been like that.

It was

really good, but I made three mistakes,
and I'm so glad

I made it in a rehearsal.

You know what I mean?

Can I talk to the dancers real quick
about how I was supposed to fall off

thing? Because I've completely
forgotten.

Can you hold Valen for me?

Yeah, she'll just remind me and I'll do
it right.

Okay, going up.

Jazz hands.

Look at that full moon.

It's gorgeous.

Hi.

Three mistakes in three and a half
hours.

too bad it's been way worse before it's
way way better my first mistake was tell

me is it baby let the games begin let
the games begin let the games begin are

you ready for it that's it that's it
yeah i went i went too early that's okay

okay

What about your quiet trees?

Yes, yes, yes, yes. And for a fortnight
there, we were forever running to you

sometimes. Okay, and then... Do you need
me?

No, I really, really, really do for this
next part, because I still cannot

remember what happens for my fall for
Midnight Rain.

Which hand? I know that I go... It was
sunshine, I was midnight. I think it's

this one. I reach out, I can't remember.

Yeah, that's right.

Do you want to try that one tomorrow?

Day was sunshine, I was midnight.

Yeah. I do want to try it. Yeah, yeah,
just for good luck.

Just so that I can confidently fall.

Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

Or just sometimes I get like a cat stuck
in a tree.

Yeah, but you haven't done it for two
months.

Yeah, it's going to be great.

Good morning, South Florida. We have
that full moon.

It is going to cause coastal flooding.
We're also under wind advisory. We have

winds expected to gust up to 35 miles
per hour. And around 7 p .m. Swifties,

heads up if you're headed to the
concert, hang on to your umbrella. Even

potential for downpours headed through
the evening and tonight.

Doug, it's Ryan here. Good to see you
again. Good to see you again. Hey, Ryan.

Hey, Ryan. Good to meet you.

Can we do a quick review on what we're
seeing for weather for these next few

days? All right. Sounds good.

The main concern pretty much for every
day this weekend is going to be the

winds. Today we've already had gusts to
around 30 across the area.

Chances of wind gusts to around 35 miles
per hour.

I don't know what you guys have been
seeing in the stadium itself down in the

bowl. We haven't seen anything over 20
in the last 24 hours. That's good to

because it has been higher outside the
bowl.

The weather element of playing outdoor
stadiums is...

At times, delightful and exciting.

At times, it is frustrating. At times,
it feels really,

really horrific.

Looking at precipitation right now, it
looks like as you go on later in the

the chances for showers start to
increase.

Like, that's how much crazy weather
we've run into on this tour.

This is the rainiest rain show that ever
rain showed.

Weather components I don't enjoy.

Extreme winds. Do not like it. Do not
love it. Do not like to see the speakers

doing this. Hate that.

Don't want it. When you hear the word
lightning, that's when we start having

really worry about postponement.

We also have the lightning detection
system.

You can come in here, monitor it. Come
and go as you please.

All right?

We're good. Thank you.

Then you get situations where sometimes
it's kind of wonderful.

Just cinema.

Just drama.

Just it adds to it. It adds to the show
if there aren't other weather situations

at play.

Do they want to go straight up stage for
the fall? Yeah, let's go.

Erica's with us.

Hi, hi.

Hi, guys.

Hey. All you do is you twist, and then
they'll catch you.

Okay. Easy. And no matter which way you
go, they're going to catch you. So if by

chance you happen to lift your left,

they're still going to get you. Okay.
Yeah.

I will definitely do that. I always
remember to mic out.

Yep. Okay.

Want to try again?

Yeah. Okay.

Okay.

Because he was sunshine, I was midnight.

Beautiful. Yeah.

That's what it was.

Thanks, guys. Yeah. Sorry about that. No
worries.

See you later.

See you later.

First song I'm going to do is...

This is me trying and then I'm going
into daylight

I've been having a hard time adjusting
Had the shiniest wheels, now they're

rusting Didn't know if you'd care if I
came back Have a lot of regrets about

that Pulled the car off the road to the
lookout Could've followed my fears all

the way down Maybe I don't quite know
what to say But I'm here in your

I just want

sleeping so long.

And I feel heard and seen and loved.

And there's one thing I admire many
things about you. But there's one thing

I'll never forget.

I came to your birthday last year.

And I actually tripped on the sidewalk.

I fell on my face, like, in front of
paparazzi that were outside.

I was dealing with side effects and
stuff.

But when you introduced me to everyone,
you said, Guys, this is Jessalyn.

We sing together.

I said, that's the way to put it.

That's exactly what it is. It is.

No one says that.

And I think that it just says something
about who you are and how humble you are

and how you like to shed light on
people.

Like make them feel bigger than they
think they are and in that moment. I

that It's never me.

It's always a we and I think that It
just makes me feel like like we are the

only we that will ever be on the biggest
fucking tour in the world

That's my whole world. They whisper down
my heart. She's a bad, bad girl. The

whole school is rolling fake time. You
play stupid games. Stupid prizes.

very well aware of mysterious forces at
play that I will never have any control

of.

So all I can ever do is say to myself,
I'm going to use every tool in my

toolkit.

I'm going to paint with every single
brush I've got. I'm going to be as

-oriented as possible. I'm going to try
as hard as I possibly can to give these

people everything that they want.

But sometimes there's something that
happens that's amazing that's

not something you can plan for and not
something that you can manufacture.

You know, like... There's

still got to be some, like, magical,
beautiful mystery to life.
