“You guys, I’m just so proud of what we made and I know with every second of this moment that we wouldn’t have been able to make this short film if it weren’t for you the fans. I wouldn’t be able to re-record my albums if it weren’t for you, you emboldened me to do that.”
Swift said that the decision to reveal she was releasing a new album in the coming months was due to the generosity of her fans voting for her to win the Video of the year award.
