Taylor's last moment on stage. Behind her the mysterious door that came from above during "Karma". This reddit user points out that the moment is similar to The Truman show ending!
Truman is begged not to leave his life in the "fishbowl" behind - he's brought people joy and hope, and he has millions of fans counting on him. But he says his catchphrase one last time, stretches out his arms, and takes a final bow.
Taylor stands in front of the door and stretches out her arms to take a final bow before disappearing into the stage.
Truman makes the choice to leave behind the only life he's ever known -a life of comfort and safety, but ultimately a life of inauthenticity. He leaves for the unknown, for the unpredictable, for the chance at a real life. IF THAT WASN'T ENOUGH, before finding the door, Truman finds stairs leading up into the clouds. Sound familiar?
(Many have already pointed out that the ascent into the clouds also mirrors the cover for the lesbian magazine The Ladder - but perhaps there's a bit of both?)

I saw this tweet earlier today saying Karlie is now being shown under the cast of Miss Americana with (voice) beside her name. Note: shes the only one that says (voice). And considering that Karlie’s voice in CIWYW is THE Kaylor lore for the documentary… 👀
So, I checked myself and sure enough, she is!
I also checked the FAQ’s to see if just anyone (aka fans) can change or add someone and that doesn’t seem to be the case, especially with how widely used IMDb is in the industry.
(For some personal context, I’m a massive Kate McKinnon fan, so I saw the Ghostbusters 2016 release and the reactions from the dude bros in real time. Not one person changed anything there. But they did brigade the scoring with 1 star reviews before the movie even came out.)
Now, here’s something even more interesting. I copied the full cast IMDb link into the Wayback Machine website and the last capture was June 16th of this year. Karlie is not listed there.
Which means this was added some time between then and now… and guess what happened in the middle of that? Oh, yeah. Karlie showing up to the eras tour. 🤭
Here’s some videos that show why we 100% believe it’s Karlie’s voice:
Champagne problems Mother’s Day speech
there truly are many ways you can be a mother
Taylor Swift really said “oh, this private life you’ve been watching? Yeah, its never not a performance from inside my fish bowl!” when she blew this popsicle stand.
“The only way for me to disappear (even while in said endless fishbowl that my life has become) is for me to envelop myself in this lavender haze.”
(Which she tells us is synonymous with her melancholia… so, sometimes that haze can loom over her as persistent sadness and ill-founded fears…)
But Taylor has been telling us that despite the sadness, fear, and sense of doom that comes with it, being with her star-crossed lover is the only shade of blue for her.
And gang, she recently framed this singular blue for us. It’s a “midnight blue,” according to Taylor.
Everyone lost their minds after she said the glitter puke and blood in the “Anti-hero” music video is “midnight blue,” but it wasn’t exactly just gaslighting.
It’s Taylor meditating on a theme in her life and art—a blue, a sadness,a melancholia that she feels most deeply in the dead of night, lying awake wondering about love, life, and who she is.
It’s also a blue in which she is submerged, in a fishbowl, in a haze, that is the only thing she really believes in despite the big hoax surrounding her (the idea that her lover’s love is faithless being the “Hoax”).
It’s the “true blue” of someone who knows her for her, is loyal, and dives into this life with her despite it all.
It’s the true blue she bleeds and the true blue that pours out when she spills her guts or the walls come down.
And it’s lavender.
Grab some tissues. It hits different 😭 ____________________________________
In May 2015, a blind item came out that said Karlie was moving things out from Taylor's apartment.
2020: Five years later in the song EXILE, Taylor referred to this fight that they supposedly had in the same way.
in 2019, Taylor on the album LOVER made it clear that her muse is from the USA, that New York screams her muse's name and that her muse has a garden gate in the West Village Karlie is from the USA, New York screams her name and she had a garden gate in the West Village.
That place was very special for their relationship because Taylor was seen there very often and she moved to New York and bought an apartment near there to hang out with Karlie in her apartment.
2019: A month after the album LOVER came out, Karlie sold her apartment in the West Village which has a garden gate.
And a year later (2020), in EXILE Taylor refers to this by saying that this person was her town, but that she is now in exile watching this person out (??selling their special place and moving out??)
I think I've seen this film before. And I didn't like the ending. You're not my homeland anymore. So what am I defending now? You were my town. Now I'm in exile, seein' you out. I think I've seen this film before.
YOU NEED TO CALM DOWN single was released on June 14, 2019
On June 25, 2019 a blind items came out saying that if Taylor wanted to come out, she couldn't mention Karlie:
And also Karlie did an interview about how much she enjoyed her new life and Taylor is briefly mentioned in it as one of her "friends", as if she was just a wrinkle
And a year later - 2020 - Taylor would refer to this in CLOSURE saying that her lover is now enjoying a new life and how Taylor feels that she is a wrinkle or something that could ruin the new life that person has built without her
RIGHT WHERE YOU LEFT ME (2020): I could feel the mascara run. You told me that you met someone. Glass shattered on the white cloth. Everybody moved on. I, I stayed there.
In 2018 and 2019, Karlie had two weddings and even though Taylor was invited, she didn't attend, she said absolutely nothing about it and Taylor's team just said she was too busy
October 2018: But the same day or the next (it's confusing because of the time zones) of the first wedding Taylor sang I KNEW YOU WERE TROUBLE completely sad as a surprise song. Taylor and Karlie met when Taylor was performing that song
Two years later - 2020 - Taylor would refer to these weddings in EVERMORE. In RIGHT WHERE YOU LEFT ME Taylor sings about how the person she used to love left her and shortly there after married and built a new life without her
In this song there is a clear reference to a tradition in Jewish Weddings. Karlie converted to Judaism and had a Jewish Wedding
"Hair pin drop": We all know that this line is gay and what it means in this context is that Taylor's silence and her not attending Karlie's two weddings was something that confirmed that there was something more than a friendship between them
Did you ever hear about the girl who got frozen? Time went on for everybody else, she won't know it. She's still 23 inside her fantasy. How it was supposed to be. Did you hear about the girl who lives in delusion? Break-ups happen every day, you don't have to lose it. She's still 23 inside her fantasy. And you're sitting in front of me.
Taylor was 23 when she became Karlie's bff.
CHAMPAGNE PROBLEMS (2020) is about how Taylor lost her golden muse because she wasn't ready to get married and how she watched this person walk away not knowing what to do
"One for the money two for the show" Karlie had two weddings and this phrase appears in the photoshoot they did together in 2014
In HAPPINESS (2020), Taylor tells how she spent seven years with this person and how she felt like she was in heaven. Taylor wrote this song a month after it was seven years since she met Karlie
This is a clear reference to Karlie because in REPUTATION and LOVER, Taylor relates heaven and religion to this person. Karlie was a Victoria's Secret Angel
HITS DIFFERENT (2022): Dreams of your hair and your stare and sense of belief. In the good in the world, you once believed in me. And I felt you and I held you for a while. Bet I could still melt your world. Argumentative, antithetical dream girl. // Movin' on was always easy for me to do. It hits different (Yeah). It hits different 'cause it's you.
Are all the Eras tour BETTY stories true? Taylor already said Betty is the love of James' life. James had to fight to get Betty back! And she believes in a Happy End. (SEE THIS LINK)
Are we getting a Kaylor reunion or was that it...?! Anything to add?
(most parts by lavenderfishboy!)
Snow on the beach for a third time??! We get it Tay, you’re in love with Karlie Kloss 🥰
Her smile is like she won a contest, and to hide that would be so dishonest / And it's fine to fake it 'til you make it / 'Til you do, 'til it's true 🥹
Ahhh so now we know why Mariska specifically looked for a photo with Karlie in it to post 🥰 kk's warmth! 😍
Mariska (talking about the day they were filming Bad Blood mv) : The day we got to the video.. you know I met a lot of them before but like, Karlie Kloss just grabbed my hand she's like 'I'm staying with you'. And it's one of those things where you just go, like I felt like I was in seventh grade and the cool girl picked me!
