Late Night with Seth Meyers

[loisebertulfo]

I love that he doesn't interrupt her

[jul]

“I haven’t thought about their experience” PERIOD TAYLOR AS U SHLD

[katiem]

I really appreciate how Seth just sits back and lets her talk, not trying to interrupt - it's much easier to watch than some interviews where the interviewer is always cutting in

[catherinemurphy]

One of the few talk show hosts who didn't cut across her. She genuinely looks so delighted to be there and in awe of the fan response!

[mridulanaukarkar]

I love how she is explaining her decision, its not because she needs approval, its because more people need to know about the wrongs done, and continue to be done against singers, who have a goddamn right to own their music.

[dillonvalencia]

“They let me know which songs did not get videos and should’ve gotten videos” instantly think of All Too Well, Getaway Car, and Speak Now.

[leokimvideo]

Thank God she's making right remaking her classic works and serving that toxic ex manager a big life lesson. NEVER MESS WITH TAY TAY

[autumnbailey]

Seth is an incredibly respectful host unlike Jimmy. He doesn't interrupt, let's her speak her thoughts regardless of the questions he has, and doesn't make awkward comments ever. Just a genuine dude.

[marinaweibel]

Taylor is living and enjoying her 30s the way we all should.

[Ariel_dorsey]

I’ve never forgotten their interview years ago where she told him “on SNL you were really cool to me and you didn’t have to be. You always remember people who were really nice to you when they didn’t have to be”

[abdulkarimaminu]

Ok I’m slowly becoming a big Taylor fan. She’s so adorable I’m crying

[clairelundin]

Taylor really said "here's the ten minute version of All Too Well and, oh, here's also a short film of it, sorry we didn't do that 10 years ago" SHE IS AN ICON

[AnneettaLife]

idk how this woman does it? Every time she gets screwed over she manages to come out on top. Even though this album is a re-record, it somehow has everyone feeling like their listening to a whole new era. Even i thought i wouldn't care about these re-records, but damn I'm so invested.

[elisha]

Does this mean we’ll be getting a getaway car MV during Rep TV????

[hilton]

The difference from her and other artist is she’s genuinely a sweetheart and knows how to connect with fans and host . It’s like a bunch of friends together having wine

[simplysimply]

She is a smart person. Judging by the way she thinks and talks, she is a truly smart person. Maybe that's why she wasn't blinded by light and fame. Queen!

[flickamiracle]

“those people are unicorn special.” is literally the best thing anyone could say to you, especially if taylor says it.

[camilarodriguez]

She’s glowing. She’s at a point of her life where she’s fully herself and truly found happiness. Couldn’t be more happy for her 🥺

[izeize]

"It's really nice to be able to put this album out and not be sad, and not taking breaks in between interviews to cry..." aww Taylor 🥺❤

[milliepantaloons]

She's so well spoken and thoughtful. And obviously talented. It's refreshing.
