While performing her Evermore set, she revealed that she had been working on her upcoming new album The Tortured Poets Department ‘since right after’ she ‘turned in Midnights.’

‘I’ve been working on it for about two years, I worked on it throughout the US tour. And when it was perfect, in my opinion, when it was good enough for you, I finished it,’ the performer teased. ‘I’m so so so excited that soon you’ll get to hear it and we’ll get to experience that together.’

She continued: ‘I’m over the moon that you guys care about my music. It still blows my mind.’

Additionally, the Cats actress revealed that she nearly announced her upcoming record in Tokyo.

As she spoke to the crowd, she recalled having a ‘plan’ that if she was ‘lucky enough’ to ‘win one thing’ at this year’s Grammys, she would ‘announce Tortured Poets.’

‘And, it ended up happening,’ she gushed. ‘My back-up plan was I going to do it tonight in Tokyo.’

Last week, the Japanese embassy confirmed that Swift would be able to see her ‘guy on the Chiefs’ play at the Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday, February 11 at 6:30pm ET.

In a statement released today, the Embassy of Japan in Washington DC said that if Swift hops on to a plane immediately after the concert, she will ‘comfortably’ reach Las Vegas.

The statement, which incorporated three of Swift’s album names, added that she could easily ‘wow Japanese audiences and make it to Las Vegas.’

The statement read: ‘The Embassy of Japan in the United States is aware of recent media reports concerning the steps Taylor Swift will need to take to travel from Tokyo after her concert on February 10 to Las Vegas in time to watch the Kansas City Chiefs play in Super Bowl LVIII.

‘Despite the 12-hour flight and 17-hour time difference, the Embassy can confidently Speak Now to say that if she departs Tokyo in the evening after her concert, she should comfortably arrive in Las Vegas before the Super Bowl begins.

‘We know that many people in Japan are excited to see Taylor Swift’s Eras Tours and we wanted to confirm that anyone concerned can be Fearless in knowing that this talented performer can wow Japanese audiences and still make it to Las Vegas to support the Chiefs when they take the field for the Super Bowl wearing Red.’

This marks her first concert since announced a surprise new album during her acceptance speech at the Grammys on Sunday at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
