Swift has also been highly interactive with fans ahead of the release, using social media to stay in touch, tease music, release music videos and more, to the point she's even creating her own social media platform Swift Life.
The app is described as "a creative, inclusive and community-driven place for users to better connect with each other . . . and Taylor," and promises exclusive content and interactions from the pop star as well as themed emojis and access to Swift's music. The NYC fan experience is similarly interactive, promising an "immersive experience" for the ultimate Taylor Swift fans.
Obviously tickets are very limited, but Universal Music is giving away tickets for two lucky Kiwis to attend the Reputation celebration, as well as return flights to New York and accommodation in the Big Apple. In honour of the album's title
Reputation
, all you have to do to enter is "Rep Your Friend".
Just post a photo of yourself and your friend on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter with the hashtag #RepYourFriendNZ, explaining why they deserve to go to the NYC fan event.
Entries are open now until November 5, and we'll announce the winner at nzherald.co.nz on November 6.
