Taylor Swift Announces New Album ‘The Tortured Poets Department’

Taylor Swift surprise-announced a brand new album during the 2024 Grammy Awards Sunday night (Feb. 4) and fans couldn’t contain themselves online.

Swift casually announced the upcoming release of her new original album, The Tortured Poets Department, while accepting the Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album for her 2022 record Midnights.

After her announcement, her official fan club released a new graphic with a note that read, “And so I enter into evidence / My tarnished coat of arms / My muses acquired like bruises / My talismans and charms / The tick, tick, tick, of love bombs / My veins of pitch black ink.”

The end of the letter signed off with the message, “All’s fair in love and poetry… Sincerely, The Chairman of the Tortured Poets Department.”

Ahead of the awards ceremony, eagle-eyed Swifties were first to notice that people in Swift’s inner circle had changed their profile pictures to black-and-white images, while Swift had similarly overhauled her social media profile photos.

The pop star’s website also seemingly “crashed” ahead of the Grammys, with Swift’s official website turning all black sans a bizarre error message that sparked all kinds of theories among fans. Clearly, they had the right idea with a big announcement coming just hours later.
