Could we FINALLY be getting Reputation (Taylor's Version)?! Of course, no one knows for sure, but there are signs, and the latest one comes via the necklace that Taylor Swift was wearing at the Kansas City Chiefs game in Missouri on Sunday, January 26.
Taylor looked amazing while on the way to watch her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and his team defeat the Buffalo Bills, earning them their AFC title and advancing on to the Super Bowl. Swift wore a black and gold Louis Vuitton jacket with matching beanie, but that's not what had fans talking — it was the piece of jewelry around her neck.
On social media, fans pointed out that Taylor was wearing a snake necklace, more specifically an ancient Greek coin necklace with intertwined snakes. And snakes are an obvious representation of Swift's Reputation era. However, Sarah Chapelle, who runs the @taylorswiftstyled account on Instagram, suggested that the coin necklace was actually a warrior, and shared of the jewelry, "embodying a fighting / warrior mindset to fit in with the 'go fight win' of sports."
A closeup of Taylor's outfit, and the necklace:
A snake necklace would be rather timely, as Chinese New Year is just a few days away June 29th, and 2025 just happens to the year of the snake. What better year to release Reputation (Taylor's Version)? And what's more, a previous year of the snake was 1989 — the year Taylor was born.
Swifties are also speculating the Chinese New Year theory:
year of the snake… taylor swift hear me out

So did nobody notice that it’s the year of the snake and Taylor Swift was born in the year of the snake? 🐍 I feel like this is the biggest Easter egg to indicate Rep would be released this year and nobody is talking about it lol pic.twitter.com/xaQ0h97ak1
