We finally know what Taylor Swift has been plotting: her new Reputation. Swift’s absence from the public eye has been conspicuous over the past few months. She apparently skipped hosting her annual Fourth of July party, which she usually celebrates by posting a blast of carefully posed photographs all over Instagram. Her presence in paparazzi rags has dropped to near invisibility. She’s been so invisible that it seemed plausible to multiple people that her staff was sneaking her in and out of her apartment in a giant box. But this week, Swift started making moves . She wiped all of her social media profiles clean — no profile pictures, even. She deleted her old posts. On Monday, she posted a grainy video of a snake on every account she owned. Rumors flew that she was planning to make an announcement at 2 pm Eastern, just as the solar eclipse was reaching its peak in New York, in what would have been the ultimate power move .

Songstress Taylor Swift is about to sing in a whole different way. Swift appeared in court in Denver for jury selection in a trial to settle opposing lawsuits filed over whether she was groped by disc jockey David Mueller in 2013. Wearing a white dress under a black jacket, she looked on as lawyers and a judge tried to whittle down a pool of 60 potential jurors to an eight-member jury. Potential jurors had to answer dozens of questions, according to a pre- trial survey obtained by TMZ.com. They were asked if they’d ever purchased a Swift album, attended one of her concerts or watched one of her videos. Speculation swirled Monday around a photo the gossip site says Swift tried to keep from public view, arguing that it would prejudice the jury pool. A judge ruled in her favor months ago .

The greatest Chief Marketing Officer in a generation launched it with a dark social media post that, much like Monday’s solar eclipse, could have caused blindness if you stared at it for too long.

She deleted every post from her Twitter and Instagram accounts — even her profile pictures! — a Friday news event that was surpassed only by Steve Bannon’s White House departure . And yet, the accounts themselves remained active, a not-quite-full blackout that served as a harbinger of things to come. The Taylor Eclipse was coming. In re...
