FROM THE
Why hello! It’s June! June happens to be my favorite month for a couple of reasons. One of them is because it’s summertime here in the US! Second, my birthday is in June! This year I turn 26. WHOA, RIGHT? Something special also happened on my birthday in 2006. Do you happen to know what it is? Taylor released her first single, Tim McGraw on the 19th! Which is also my birthday. :) So, thank you Taylor for giving me the best gift of all, your music and for being the greatest role model I could ever ask for. Forever will be grateful for you! :) Wow, that is 12 years since Tim McGraw came out...can you believe it?! Time really does fly by. Anyway, this issue covers a lot www.issuu.com/zinethirteen
of the reputation tour, like you might have guessed. :P There are many photos of Taylor on tour, along with photos from fans that they took at thier concert! Another cool thing in the tour section are photos of swifties in their outfits they wore to see Taylor! It a;ways makes me smile seeing the different outfits and vairous creativity each person has. You guys put so much love and energy into your outfits and it really shows! Thank you to everyone who shared them. I’m sure everyone will love them just as much as I do! Wow. Taylor once again surprised fans! Not only did she meet fans in Chicago before and after the show...she even held a special event for a few very lucky
fans to meet her one on one! How sweet! Photos are found in that particular section. The joy on the faces of those fans is absolutely the most adorable and amazing thing you could ever see! Taylor is just too wonderful. :) We also got to experience watching the music video for “Babe” which featured Taylor. She looked so fierce while playing the “bad girl” role. Hope you guys have seen the video, if not, be sure to check it out on YouTube when you get a chance...you will not regret it! Lastly, I’d like to once again thank you all for reading or taking a look through this zine. It really means a lot to me that anyone looks at it. I do spend quite a bit of time collecting information
and putting it all together, so the fact you guys like it makes me smile a whole lot. :) It may not be perfect, but I do have a lot of fun making it & talking with all of you in the process! You guys are amazing and I hope you guys continue to send in photos and stories like you have been! That’s the best part! Love you all!
Stay Beautiful, Tanya @tanyaxoh ZINE THIRTEEN ISSUE 11 june 2018

Billboard awards Swifties Make Taylor Feel Understood Again TANYA OHNMEISS
5.23.18
This was a HUGE night for both Taylor & fans alike! This was the first award show that Taylor has been to in YEARS. Which was a huge “YAY!” for swifties to see her again! Plus, on top of that excitement...she came out a winner of two awards. Another “YAY!” Taylor graced the red carpet wearing a gorgeous, delicate dress made by Versace. It’s been said that this dress took 800 hours to make. WOW! This dress gave us all such Speak Now feels with the color and style. Same with how Taylor wore her hair. So elegant! However, it had a mix of reputation since she wore a gold snake ring. Sneaky, Taylor! ;) Taylor’s first win of the night was for Top Female Artist. I don’t know about you, but I always look forward to Taylor’s award speeches because they are always meaningful and inspiring. “I want to thank all the female artists who paved the way for us to get to do what we do the way we get to do it,” Swift said. “All the new female artists who are killing

major role models just like herself. The second award that Taylor won was Top Selling Album for reputation. Which, in all honesty, there really was no doubt in all of our minds that she would win this with the record breaking sales that she had in the first week! We are so proud of you Taylor! The speech she made after winning Top Selling Album hit us all SO HARD. It personally made me cry, which while I was live tweeting, so many of you said the same thing! “When I started writing songs when I was 12, I started writing songs because it made me feel more understood. When I was making Reputation, this album, for a while there, I felt really, really misunderstood by a lot of people. So I just want to say to the fans, thank you for continuing to show up. We just started our tour last week, and the ways that you have cared Taylor sitting with Shawn Mendes & Camila Cabello about me and the ways that you’ve

it out there right now, we’re so inspired by you. And I don’t know, shout-out to the future female artists who just picked up a guitar or learned how to play the piano. And to the fans who care about the music that we make, thank you so much.” I love that she spoke about female artists who are all doing amazing as well. She doesn’t just think about herself, she thinks about others too. It’s wonderful when she is also on tour with such strong female singers who are
treated me have, just — thank you for making me feel understood again. I love you so much to the fans, you’re incredible.” WE MAKE HER FEEL UNDERSTOOD AGAIN. WHAT EVEN. Taylor, thank YOU for everything you have done for us. You have always been there for me when people weren’t. You truly have made me feel understood through your music for the past 12 years! I honestly don’t think I can thank you enough for all the times you have gotten me through rough patches in my life. Along with happy moments too! With your music, no matter what emotion I am feeling, there is a song for it that so perfectly describes how I’m feeling as if you wrote it just for me. You have always been so relate-able and will forever write the soundtrack to my life. I love you! Swifties will ALWAYS be here for you!

behind the scenes Living the Dream with a Caticorn! TANYA OHNMEISS
5.18.18
Remember that absolutely adorable commercial for AT&T that starred Taylor and Olivia as a magical caticorn?! Well, we got a short behind the scenes video on what it was like for Taylor to shoot the commercial along with the idea behind it all. Originally, the idea was to have Taylor riding a white horse in the commercial. However, Taylor came up with the idea herself to transform Olivia into not only a giant cat that she can ride, but a caticorn! Which, this is a mix between a cat and a unicorn. Why was I not surprised at all when it was Taylor who came up with this idea? Haha. It’s such a Taylor thing to come up with and I love it so, so much! The mechanical device that she is riding reminds me of those mechanical bulls that you can ride, but obviously a lot calmer and controlled. They coated the riding apparatus in white fur, which is similar to Olivia’s. Taylor mentioned it had always been a dream of hers to ride her cat like a horse. Me too, Taylor. Me too.

biggest Weekend Taylor Performs at the Biggest Weekend! TANYA OHNMEISS
5.29.18
Taylor Swift took the stage at BBC Radio 1’s Biggest Weekend in Swansea on Sunday, May 27th. Taylor has already been really busy with the reputation stadium tour and flew to the U.K. after a show in Denver, Colorado. In an interview, Taylor had said, “We pretty much had no time to rehearse for this ... This was kind of like, on the fly.” Luckily, Taylor and her crew were able to use an abbriviated version of what she does on tour, since that’s what they’ve been rehearsing and performing for over the past month. Taylor’s six song setlist included her major hits, such as, ...Ready For It?, Gorgeous, Look What You Made Me Do, Delicate (Acoustic), Blank Space & Shake It Off.

taylor swift now Chicago Fans Weren’t Ready For It! TANYA OHNMEISS
6.7.18
Taylor hosted a special event in Chicago after her second show at Soldier Field on June 2nd. This event was invite only to a select few fans, who Taylor herself wanted to meet. Taylor mentioned that these have been longtime fans who have been supporting her for years, going to many shows, but never got the opportunity to meet her...until now! In the sneak peek video, it looks as though fans are getting interviewed as to why they are fans of Taylor, what their favorite songs are etc. Little do they know, Taylor is standing directly behind them as they are talking in their interview! Taylor comes right up behind the fans to surprise each of them and the reaction is absolutely PRICELESS from each of the fans! SO CUTE! According to various social media posts, Taylor knew each of the fans names, took selfies on her phone with them and gave them a swag bag! How sweet! Taylor never ceases to amaze me with how kind and thoughtful she is towards all of her fans. She mentioned before that she wants to meet all of us...she truly does and is trying SO HARD to meet as many fans as possible. There is no other artist out there like that! SO THANK FUL FOR YOU, TAYLOR! The full episode will be coming to Taylor Swift Now on DirecTV!

babe The Music Video is Out! TANYA OHNMEISS
6.10.18
Remember how excited we all were to hear Babe for the first time? Well, time to get excited all over again to watch the music video! :) The video paints a picture of the story that is being told in Babe. In the video, it looks as though an afluent married couple are the main characters of this story. The husband seems to be the money maker in this situation, who is the boss at an office type job, where he met his mistress, who is played by Taylor! Taylor, looking gorgeous as ever, is shown as a redhead secretary who works in the same office, where she fools around with her boss. The wife in this story, played by Jennifer Nettles, finds out about her husband cheating on her and is strong enough in the end to lock him out and leave him.
www.issuu.com/zinethirteen
The overall aestetci of this video has quite the vintage 1950s feel to it, which is great. The outfits worn by everyone and the overall style is just fantastic! I personally enjoy the style from this era. We know that this was written during the Red era by Taylor, so I
am curious if she had a hand in the direction of the video? Or, if she didn’t give this song to Sugarland and used it herself back in the day, I wonder what the video would be like? As it is, it’s a very wonderful video and portrays the imagery very well. I’m just always curious of the
“what could have been” scenearios. Overall, I definitely recommend watching the video if you haven’t seen it yet! And if you have seen it, be sure to watch it again and again. :) Always happy to support our girl and other artists who support Taylor too!

REputation tour Projects You May Want to Join tanya ohnmeiss
Want to take part in some fan projects during reputation tour? Look no further! Here are some projects you might want to participate in! REPUTATION PROJECT: For this project, a group of swifties came together to unite the fandom during the song, Gorgeous on tour. The project involves printing and cutting out pink hearts that will then be held up to your phone’s flashlight, causing the light to glow pink. The hope is to get the audience to glow pink as much as possible during the song. You can follow @reputation project for more details and to find the template to print your own hearts at home! PROJECT REPUTATION: This project is meant to avoid any spoilers while on tour. There are some fans out there who would like to be completely surprised when they see Taylor on tour, so this account is trying to spread awareness of that. They aren’t saying to not post tour photos at all, but to respect other fans by posting with multiple photos and use a cover photo with text reading, “SPOILERS” or “PROTECTING REPUTATION’S REPUTATION.” This way, fans can still post photos and spoilers from the tour without ruining it for those who haven’t seen Taylor yet. For more information, please follow @protect.rep on Instagram. REP GIVE BACK: They are trying to help send swifties to see Taylor on tour who might not be able to afford to themselves. This account on Twitter, @RepGiveBack, is trying to collect donations to help pay for tickets for fans. The fans that get these tickets have been nominated by other fans. I love that us as a fandom www.issuu.com/zinethirteen
like to help out each other in every way that we can. This is a beautiful account that has already helped fans with ticket purchases from their own money as well as donations. Please be sure to check out their Twitter page for more information. RAINBOW REPUGAYTION: Inspired by Taylor’s rainbow dresses in the reputation album shoot and the End Game video, Project Rainbow RepuGAYtion wants to bring gay pride to the reputation stadium tour, during Pride Month and beyond! On the day you attend your reputation stadium tour
show, you can wear rainbow clothes, rainbow accessories, or anything else that you feel fits the theme. For more information, please check out @rainbowrepugaytion on Tumblr or @rainbowrepugay on Twitter. REP LONDON PROJECT: Swifties in London would like to get everyone together to hold up a “PROUD” sign during Long Live/New Year’s Day to surprise Taylor! They have “PROUD” papers that you can find in a link on their Instagram page. They are looking to accomplish this on June 22nd if you are attending
that particular concert! For more information be sure to follow them on Instagram (@replondonproject) or Twitter (@Repldnproject)! Now, I understand that not everyone is going to see Taylor on tour in order to directly participate in these projects. However, even if you might not be going, please consider spreading the word about these projects on social media. The more these projects are shared and talked about online, the more people could potentially join in and help out. Just the smallest thing as posting about it, tagging the account ZINE THIRTEEN ISSUE 11 june 2018

REputation tour Taylor’s Pride Speech Special Guests I happen to feel that being vulnerable and honest about how you feel and saying how you feel is really brave. And, uh, guys, June is Pride month and I think a lot about how it is very brave to be vulnerable about your feelings in any sense, in any situation. But it’s even more brave to be honest about your feelings and who you love and that you know that that might be met with adversity from society. So this month and every month I want to send out my love and respect to everybody who has been brave enough to be honest about the way they feel, to live their lives as they are, as they feel they should be, as they identify. And this is a month where I think we need to celebrate how far we’ve come but we also need to acknowledge how far we still have left to go. And I want to send my love and respect out to everybody who in their journey hasn’t yet felt comfortable enough to come out and may you do that in your own time. May we end up in a world where everyone can live and love equally and no one has to be afraid to be vulnerable and say how they feel. When it comes to feelings and when it comes to love and searching for someone to spend your whole life with... it’s all just really really delicate. You know?”

Selena’s Adorable Speech to Taylor Are you guys having a good night? I have to say thank you to my best friend of about 12 years, almost 13, and the reason why she has been one of my best friends is because this person has never ever judged a single decision I’ve made. She’s always met me where I’ve been. She’s encouraged me when I’ve had nothing to be encouraged about, and I don’t know if I would be as strong as I am if I didn’t have you and your family because you’ve changed my life. And—she’s going to kill me after—but honestly, thank you for the bottom of my heart for supporting someone who I know is the most beautiful, strong, independent woman I’ve ever met. So thank you as a best friend.

Just Laugfor hs!
Ok, so we all remember the whole “No, it’s Becky.” thing from Tumblr, right? Which, then once Taylor joined Tumblr, she discovered it and thought it was super funny, just like we did! Well, the saga continues! This time, with her mom, Andrea. There has been a post where Andrea is referred to as Debbie according to an online article. Which, is obviously a mistake on their part. But, once this was found within the fandom, Tumblr fans instantly connected the joke to “No, it’s Becky.” Now saying, “No, it’s Debbie.” Guess what else? Taylor herself saw this! She and her mom both laughed at it according to the comment she left on a fan’s Tumblr page. I love the random funiness of this fandom, OMG. Haha! Check out the screenshots from Tumblr in the photos! :)
