FROM THE
Hello & welcome to the March issue of ZINEthirteen! :) We have only heard from Taylor a little bit here and there over the past month, which is absolute TORTURE when we want to get sneak previews of what is possibly going on during tour rehearsals! YOU’RE TEARING US APART, TAYLOR! (If you got that reference, you’re awesome) Luckily, when we did hear from her, it was BIG news! Which makes all the waiting totally worth it! We finally found out who the opening acts are, CHARLI XCX and Camila Cabello! AHHHH!! We are going to be experiencing some really amazing and strong female performances while on tour this year! I am beyond excited about that! And when I
took a poll on Instagram to see if people were into the openers or not, it seemed like a vast majority were SUPER THRILLED about this announcement. Glad to hear that so many of you are happy about this! I am too. :) Another big announcement from Taylor was for her music video of Delicate. Now, at first I was skeptical about this being the next single. It’s like, our baby. Is the world deserving of this masterpiece? Will they be prepared for this?! Be sure to flip through the zine to find the section on the Delicate music video to find out more of my thoughts and other’s thoughts as well! :) In this issue there are some tour projects that you may want to participate in and help spread
the word about, even if you aren’t going to the tour yourself. It’s always nice to help spread the word in order to help the swifties who are running the projects! So, please consider reading what they have to say and determine if you would like to be a part of it! Thank you! As always, one of my favorite features in the zine is the beautiful artwork that many swifties post on social media. There are SO MANY talented artists out there that are fans of Taylor. It amazes me each day when I find something new I would like to showcase on the artist page. You guys are awesome! Thank you to those who have sent in their artwork. I appreciate it so, so much that you want to be part
of the zine and help beautify the pages with your artwork. You are wonderful beyond words! A new feature I will be adding each month are random Taylor related polls, just for fun. I will post them in my Instagram story and reveal the results each month! I now have a “Polls” highlight on my profile for all the polls for the month if anyone misses them. :)
Stay Beautiful, Tanya

Taylor liked CHARLI XCX’s post on Instagram on Feb. 26th!

delicate video Is it Cool That I Said All That? tanya ohnmeiss
3.12.18
Another beautiful masterpiece by Taylor, Joseph Kahn and the rest of the crew! Thank you all for producing such a brilliant music video. I don’t even like to classify these as music videos, honestly. They are more of a short film, a work of art. The video starts out with Taylor, appearing quite sad. She has to fake a smile for the media, it’s as though nobody truly knows her. Nobody truly understands her. A mysterious man walks by and hands her a sparkling, golden note. Wonder who that could be? ;) Anyway...the media continues to want her attention, trying to get her in every way that they can. She smiles a TRUE, happy smile when stopping with a few fans to take photos. This shows that she can truly be happy with us as fans as well as show that she loves us; that she can be herself with us. Until an outsider tries to ruin it with a fierce attack. She continues on through her story by slowly becoming invisible to everyone around her. Nobody is listening to her. Nobody is paying any attention. This allows her to free herself and completely be who she really is. She starts to dance around and seems to be having the time of her life. :) The scene where she is dancing in the rain is truly so adorable and brings a big smile to my face! This scene takes me back to the 1989 tour speech for Clean. “I now believe that pain makes you stronger. And I know believe that walking through a lot of rainstorms gets ZINE THIRTEEN ISSUE 08 MARCH 2018

“Fearless Taylor” is the 5th in the lineup. Delicate is the 5th track. The video shows Taylor dancing in her best dress, fearless
you clean.” She may have had a lot of pain and rainstorms in her life, however, she is truly clean from what has hurt her. Whether it be the media or various drama in her life. She has found someone who likes her for her. She doesn’t feel invisible to him because he truly cares for her. Her happiness really shines through in this video and it then makes me happy just to watch it! I can’t even count the number of times I have seen this already, but
it will surely be more. :) There are a few fun surprises within the video that I’m sure some of you noticed. Items such as “Joe’s Deli” when she went outside to dance in the rain. There was a spray painted wall that read, “Echoes of your footsteps.” Taylor was wearing a snake ring in the video to continue on with the snake theme throughout this era. And more! Check out the photos & captions. :)
My 2 favorite faces in the video :)

new merch Isn’t It? Isn’t It? Isn’t It? tanya ohnmeiss
3.12.2018
Could you guess what the new merch is for just by reading the header? ;) If you guessed Delicate...YOU’RE RIGHT! There are two new muscle tees inspired by Delicate. One with text lyrics of “isn’t it?” and the other with an image of Taylor’s face from the music video along with lyrics, “cause I know that it’s delicate.” There was also a limited edition lithograph of Taylor doing a split in the rain. There were only 500 available and they sold out FAST! I’m not sure if this item will make an appearance again in the store. These lithographs are all hand numbered and very exclusive. I truly hope that true fans were able to get a hold of one! I always hate to see something like this end up on ebay for an outrageous price. :(
“White Muscle Tee with Delicate Lyrics” $45.00
Exclusive lithograph from the Delicate music video. 500 were made and all hand numbered. Priced at $40 and SOLD OUT!

“Black Muscle Tee with Delicate Lyrics” $45.00

what’s up, tay? Showing Love & Sympathy, Big Sur Falconry and Hikes with Joe tanya ohnmeiss
3.9.18
Although Taylor hasn’t been very social with the world lately, there have been a few instances where her presence has been known. First, a fan named Ryan Pickney sadly lost her father, Sgt. Del Pickney, who was a police officer. Taylor, being the beautiful soul that she is, sent a gorgeous floral wreath to honor Sgt. Pickney. Although this is a major tragedy in Ryan’s life, it is sweet to know that Taylor cares and is sending her love for Ryan and her family. Ryan, I am beyond sorry for your loss. From what it sounds like, your father was a great man who, I’m sure, loved you very much. It is so wonderful to see Taylor recognized this as well. I can only hope that you and your family stay strong through a difficult time such as this. It may never be ok, but please hold onto the happy memories that you and your family all share with your father. Taylor seems to be keeping busy, not only with tour rehearsals, but with outdoor adventures as well. She was spotted at Big Sur at the Ventana resort in California. Here, she spent time with falcons and even posed for a photo with a falcon resting on her outstretched arm! That’s awesome! She also took the time to take photos with fans, who then posted on social media about their experience at Big Sur and how exciting it was to meet Taylor too! Lastly, Taylor and Joe have been ZINE THIRTEEN ISSUE 08 MARCH 2018
Fan, Ryan Pickney, posting a thank you to Taylor for sending the wreath for her father’s passing
Beautiful, heart-shaped floral wreath sent to Sgt. Pickney’s family from Taylor
Fan, @ss_shans on Instagram, posted a photo of himself with a friend and Taylor (left) as well as a photo of Taylor holding a falcon, along with other photos of a falcon and owl (above)
seen going for a hike in the Santa Monica Mountains above Malibu, California. Taylor was seen holding onto Joe’s hand and his arm while hiking. You may notice that I did not include the photographs of Taylor and Joe within the zine. You could clearly tell that Taylor did not want to be photographed and
this is a Taylor magazine based on positivity and supporting Taylor. Although some candids are cute, the paparazzi are cruel people. I will not be posting these photos of Taylor and Joe, but I’m sure many of you have seen them all over social media. I also know that many of you were very excited
to see them, which is completely understandable. We hardly ever get a photo of Taylor anymore, so when we do, it’s awesome! But, to me, in this instance, she didn’t look thrilled about them being taken. Out of respect for her and her relationship, they won’t be here. :)

tour projects Gorgeous, Protect Rep & Give Back tanya ohnmeiss
3.5.18
Want to take part in some fan projects during reputation tour? Look no further! Here are 3 projects that I have come across that you might be interested in joining! First, you may have remembered the post about the Gorgeous Project in last month’s issue. Well, I am mentioning it once again! 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! The next project I would like to mention is Protect 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. Lastly, this account is trying to
@reputationproject @protect.rep
@RepGiveBack
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 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
Please Help By Joining or Spreading the Word About These Projects Today! :)
from their own money as well as donations. Please be sure to check out their Twitter page for more information. 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 with a shout out or retweeting about it on Twitter makes all the difference. I’m sure that each of these projects would be very grateful that you shared them. The more we unite as a fandom the closer we will be. :) ZINE THIRTEEN ISSUE 08 MARCH 2018
