Taylor Swift is now a worldwide sensation and her influence on pop culture is unprecedented. She has always been a committed artist and is also a very jolly and fun-loving person at heart. These qualities of hers resonated with Swifties all around the world.
However, Swift was left dumbfounded when she was pranked by Justin Bieber way back in 2012 when the latter had her believe that she had ruined a wedding nearby. Swift’s reaction to the prank left everyone in splits and became a great episode for MTV’s Punk’d series.
Justin Bieber’s Well-Orchestrated Prank Traumatized Taylor Swift
In 2012, Justin Bieber hosted some episodes of MTV’s Punk’d series where carefully planned pranks were carried out on celebrities. In one of Bieber’s episodes, Taylor Swift was the guest, and the makers and Bieber planned an elaborate prank on the singer which left Swift in a state of shock.
In the episode (via YouTube), Bieber invited Swift to his Malibu beach house where they set off fireworks. Bieber and the team behind the episode make Swift believe that the fireworks she set off landed on a yacht where a wedding is supposed to take place. The yacht can be seen engulfed in flames and Swift is shocked and traumatized to see what she has done.
She is seen extremely nervous and exclaiming, “I just feel like we’re gonna die, I feel like I’m gonna die”. The tension is escalated in such a real way as people from the boat are also taken out, much to Swift’s disbelief. However, later on, Bieber reveals that she has been “punk’d” and Swift is seen calling Bieber “the worst” as the two embrace and laugh at the whole situation.
Taylor Swift Teases Goth-Punk Aesthetic to Her Version of 2017’s Reputation
Taylor Swift is set to re-release her version of her 2017 album Reputation very soon. While talking to Time Magazine, she revealed what to expect from the re-tooled record and the overall aesthetic of the album. She compared re-recording the album to ‘collecting the infinity stones’.
Swift claimed that the album is a goth-punk statement piece against the social structure. She also promised that the album’s vault tracks will be something that fans will absolutely love. She said
“It’s a goth-punk moment of female rage at being gaslit by an entire social structure. I think a lot of people see it and they’re just like, Sick snakes and strobe lights. “I’m collecting horcruxes,” she says. “I’m collecting infinity stones. Gandalf’s voice is in my head every time I put out a new one. For me, it is a movie now.”
A release date has not yet been revealed about the album. The album may come out sometime towards the end of the year. Swifties are desperately waiting for her version of one of her most beloved albums.
