It’s the first album in Spotify history to have over 300 million streams in a single day; it’s the biggest pop album of all time by first-day streams on Apple Music; and on the day of its release, became the most streamed album on Amazon Music — ever.

One of the most enchanting discoveries in Taylor’s home was the library, a room straight out of a fairy tale. Adorned with towering bookshelves filled with an impressive collection of literature, the library exudes an aura of elegance and charm. However, what made it truly magical were the secret doors concealed within the bookcases.
“Taylor showed me how some of the bookcases swung open to reveal hidden passageways,” the fan revealed. “It was like stepping into a mystery novel. She’s clearly a fan of the whimsical and fantastical.”
Throughout the house, personal touches and memorabilia from Taylor’s illustrious career were on display. From Grammy awards to framed lyrics of her hit songs, every corner of her home reflected her journey and achievements. The fan noted that despite the grandeur, there was a comforting and relatable ambiance.
“Her home is filled with reminders of her hard work and success, but it’s also incredibly cozy and personal. There are photos of her family and friends, and even little notes and drawings from fans.”
THE BATHROOM SURPRISE
Perhaps the most surprising discovery was in the bathroom. Instead of the usual toiletries, Taylor keeps a collection of amusing and quirky items. “Her bathroom has these whimsical trinkets and vintage decorations,” the fan said. “But the funniest thing was finding a basket of cat-themed items – everything from cat-shaped soaps to little cat figurines. It’s clear she adores her cats.”
