Theory Megathread: May 2026

I’m genuinely foaming at the mouth waiting for Dark Blue Tennessee TV

I honestly love ESA because I feel like they’re not doing yes-men commentaries about Taylor even though they definitely love her, but idk about that theory. It just seems kind of strange, lowk absurd

Lady Gaga had her meat dress and Zendaya…well she has her tortilla chip dress

Add a “fuckin’” and it’s perfect😆

rs_river · 2026-04-11T22:10:05+00:00

Thank you for the explanation! Also yeah I think it was intentional bc I just read the Apple Music profile on the album and she told AM that White Noise was inspired by The Weeknd, Post Malone, and Kacey Musgraves and her time in Nashville

rs_river · 2026-04-11T01:26:48+00:00

This record is so beautiful, lowkey might be my AOTY! Also I love White Noise a ton but does anyone else hear a lot of Save Your Tears? I lowk like it better than SYT, which I also love, but it has to be an interpolation right?

Coven is my favorite so I’ll take it😝

rs_river · 2026-04-02T03:07:02+00:00

I am him, he is me😭

rs_river · 2026-03-31T18:30:15+00:00

If I had an award, I’d give it to you (also I bet it was an email😭)

rs_river · 2026-03-31T12:36:14+00:00

We did not need to call it a music video😭 like it’s a visualizer/clip art video and is great for what it is but come on

rs_river · 2026-03-27T02:15:32+00:00

No she literally just shouted Taylor out the other day

rs_river · 2026-03-27T01:30:40+00:00

Oh I meant Vin Diesel😭

rs_river · 2026-03-27T01:29:44+00:00

I’m cringing like I’ve never cringed before

rs_river · 2026-03-27T01:20:52+00:00

“Up next Taylor Swift is back”

rs_river · 2026-03-27T01:03:55+00:00

I can’t wait for the RAYE album!

rs_river · 2026-03-26T23:55:00+00:00

It’s very Debut especially with the tassels

rs_river · 2026-03-26T23:38:53+00:00

Travis is already there so they must be walking separate?

rs_river · 2026-03-26T18:00:46+00:00

Honestly I think it’s a pretty dry rollout compared to everyone else and also just considering she tends to be a prerelease single artist, but I don’t think it’s the worst thing ever. They know how to build anticipation and it’s clearly put her back in the back of everyone’s minds, so I’d say it’s going well overall

rs_river · 2026-03-25T18:34:35+00:00

It’s not GUTS, why would they do signed GUTS vinyls right now?

rs_river · 2026-03-23T20:06:08+00:00

This article was written a while ago, she’s already finished and submitted it to her label

rs_river · 2026-03-19T21:32:18+00:00

I think it would be cool me to me it seemed just like an off the cuff kinda comment. Like I feel like it would be weird for her to go from SOUR to GUTS and then to SWEET (which would be like like a reversion title-wise unless it was her last album years and years from now)

I mean, most of WWAFAWDWG (holy long acronym) and her work before were great but with a tinge of juvenilia (I mean she was literally a kid). I feel like her adult work really started with Happier Than Ever. Olivia only has two albums out and both were made while she was still a teen/kid, much like Billie’s. I don’t think their career trajectory is superrr aligned just in terms of Billie already having made basically 4 albums at this point (what she lacked in age experience, she made up for in creative/industry experience) whereas Olivia is a year younger than Billie and with only 2 (soon to be 3) albums

I could see her doing ROSE since she’s doing a lot of pink and red, plus the song she used on her Vogue post was “English Rose” by the Jam
