00:00you got your music and i just like very dramatically hit the floor for real like
00:07honestly just started a long time welcome to ms mojo and today we're counting down our picks for
00:13the most memorable exciting and perhaps even unexpected taylor swift moments in 2025 which
00:19was inarguably a huge year for the iconic artist showgirl herself taylor swift
00:25number 10 the fate of ophelia video i heard you calling on the megaphone you want to see me all
00:39along taylor swift's new album has several bona fide hits but this one is definitely a fan
00:46favorite as the first song on the track list the fate of ophelia sets the stage for the album the
00:51life of a showgirl with fun and poetic vocals nuanced with literary references it was the
01:04perfect song for a cinematic music video premiering the weekend of the album release the music video
01:09which was written and directed by taylor swift herself became instantly iconic it shows the
01:15different eras of showgirls complete with picture perfect production design and choreography
01:20it's truly a masterpiece number nine the grammys they say you never forget where you came from
01:34and i will never forget standing here right on this spot almost exactly 15 years ago accepting the
01:41grammy award for best country album taylor swift may not have walked away with any awards at the 2025
01:48grammys but her look was the talk of the town looking as gorgeous as ever after the finale of her
01:54eras tour she dazzled in a sparkly red mini dress the little garter style t jewel detail on her leg
02:00brought the outfit together whether it stands for taylor or travis we may never know
02:05this outfit also followed her pattern of wearing dresses to the grammys that foreshadow her next album
02:17aesthetic and this one was perfect to represent the life of a showgirl
02:21number eight billboards top artist of the 21st century and i want to thank all the artists all
02:35the female artists who paved the way for us to get to do what we do the way we get to do it
02:40all the new artists the new female artists who are killing it out there right now when we reflect back
02:45on the last few decades there are several iconic artists who are staples of the 2000s but few have
02:51made the same impact in blending genres selling out stadiums and breaking the internet as taylor swift
02:57has so we think the fact that she earned the honor of being named billboards top artist of the 21st
03:09century is completely fitting the only question after this accolade is how can she possibly top
03:14this we're not sure where she's going to go from here but we bet we'll be finding her at the top of
03:19the billboard charts for a long time
03:21number seven collaboration with sabrina carpenter so she waited by the stage door asked the club promoter
03:33arrived she said i'd sell my soul to have a taste of a magnificent life swift's 12th album was highly
03:39anticipated and was the subject of plenty of speculation people were thrilled to see an iconic collaboration
03:45with sabrina carpenter on the title track after these two appeared together on stage during the
03:50era's tour swifties everywhere were excited to see them together again their vocals blended seamlessly
03:56in this fun storytelling tune
03:58since swift and carpenter are both showgirls to their core it made perfect sense that they would
04:11both be featured on this song with it being featured at the end of the album and the ending being the
04:15era's tour finale we can't help but wonder if this is taylor swift's symbolic passing of the showgirl torch
04:21number six announcing the life of a showgirl this is my brand new album
04:31while celebrity podcasts seem to be a dime a dozen these days travis and jason kelsey's podcast
04:46new heights does seem to stand out from the crowd furthermore taylor swift is not a podcast girly
04:52and this was her first appearance on the platform what took you so long to jump on podcasts you know
04:57what i i just i was waiting for you guys to invite me this is my favorite podcast and boy oh boy was it a
05:04memorable one full of nuanced chats and shared glances between taylor and travis her appearance went viral
05:11but it was the announcement of her new album that really brought the house down
05:15she told the world about the life of a showgirl on the episode and considering so much of the album is inspired
05:20by travis this felt like the perfect way to spread the news i picked a good month it's gonna be a good week
05:25you know all these all these libras 10-3 13 the opal birthstone number five winning tour of the
05:34century award that's how good it was we have 75 years left in this century and they're like yeah
05:42no one's stopping this the era's tour was a phenomenon it felt like a fever dream that was a
05:47shared experience amongst swifties from around the globe so it's not a surprise that it won the i
05:52heart radio music award for tour of the century that might sound a bit presumptuous considering
05:57we're only a quarter of the way through this century but really we're not sure how anyone
06:01will top it does anyone here know the lyrics to this bridge
06:05with years of shows in countless countries not to mention record-breaking attendance and ticket sales
06:18we don't know if we'll see such an iconic tour again in our lifetime
06:22number four the end of an era
06:31speaking of the era's tour the day before taylor's 36th birthday marks the release of a six-part
06:44documentary that details the behind the scenes aspects of the tour while the tour has taylor
06:49swift's name face and reputation at the forefront it was a huge group effort the era's tour wasn't
06:55when all the pieces fell into place this tour was just when every single one of us who had done so
07:01much work pushing inch by inch
07:06to where we all clicked together we can't wait to see how they made this over three hour show come
07:13together seamlessly night after night along with a docu-series is the release of a new concert film
07:18where we get to relive or experience for the first time taylor's final show of the tour in vancouver
07:24we already know we're going to lose our voices singing along and we're so here for it
07:29number three dropping the life of a showgirl
07:39after the moody but fun songs on midnights and the absolute wordsmith mastery in the tortured poets
07:51department the life of a showgirl was exactly what the doctor ordered the songs detail swift's life as
07:57an artist on the road who is also navigating a thriving love life i wanted the album to feel
08:03the way my life felt and this completely matches the way that my life has felt from the double
08:08entons in wood to the love letter to the haters and actually romantic all the way to the shakespearean
08:13sonnet that is the fate of ophelia it's a musical journey we love to ride
08:18the eldest daughter of a nobleman ophelia lived in fantasy also releasing the album in the form of a
08:28theatrical film that goes through the inspo for her songs legendary with a loaf of bread

08:44achieved that now with travis 100 i mean like look what i got taylor swift's love life has been the
08:49focus of media attention and fan speculation for quite some time so seeing her happy in her adorable
08:55relationship with nfl player travis kelsey has put a smile on every swifty's face i'd never just been
09:01so engulfed in the curiosity of who you were oh that's look at this i really i really have the best
09:07things about that last statement is you didn't even know what the word engulf meant before like you
09:10met taylor we've seen her cheer him on on the sidelines of his games and he's sung along to
09:15her music in the audience while she's been on tour making it clear that they are a perfect match

10:18i never was it is like an intrusive thought that i had every day in recent years taylor has taken to
10:24creating her versions of songs by re-recording them and having full ownership of them in anticipation
10:30of taylor's version of her reputation album fans thought for sure that her announcement of the
10:34album's release was on the horizon but instead she announced on instagram that she is now the proud
10:47owner of all of her masters she's a trailblazer for artists everywhere in many ways and now she
10:53represents the right to own your own catalog of work if i were to put the information out about what
10:58i went through at least it gets artists talking about this yeah to decide whether this is a priority
