As Memorial Day approaches, one question has Swifties in a frenzy: Will Taylor Swift be at the 2025 American Music Awards (AMAs)? With cryptic clues surfacing online and fan theories gaining momentum, many believe Taylor is not only attending—but also planning a major announcement during the broadcast. From mysterious website updates to potential Reputation re-release hints, the Swift-sleuthing has reached peak intensity.

🔍 Will Taylor Swift Be at the 2025 American Music Awards

Taylor Swift fans are no strangers to decoding secret messages, and this time they’re convinced the pop megastar is making a surprise appearance at the 2025 AMAs on May 26. The spark? Several intriguing clues hidden in plain sight.

First, Swift’s official online store quietly updated a category section labeled “AMAs”—listing Clothing, Music, Accessories, and Sales. While this could seem ordinary, fans quickly pointed out that 12 items are discounted by 26%—a double reference Swifties interpret as:

• “12” possibly indicating TS12, her yet-to-be-announced 12th album, or the sixth re-recording (Reputation).

• “26” lining up with May 26, the date of the AMAs.

Additionally, the Taylor Nation fan account reposted a tweet about AMAs voting with the caption: “And our people, it looks so small from up here.” The capitalized letters spell “AMAs”, and the post featured a snippet from “thanK you aIMee”—a track already rumored to contain hidden meanings about past feuds and empowerment.

For die-hard fans, these clues are anything but accidental. Swift is known for her love of numerology and secret codes. Often tying album drops and announcements to carefully placed Easter eggs.

🖤 Reputation (Taylor’s Version) Could Finally Be Revealed

Much of the excitement surrounding Swift’s potential AMAs appearance stems from the belief that Reputation (Taylor’s Version)—the sixth in her re-recording project—is ready to drop. The strongest piece of evidence came when Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale aired a preview of “Look What You Made Me Do (Taylor’s Version)”, sending fans into a frenzy.

Additionally, Reputation was originally released in November 2017, and the AMAs fall nearly seven years later, a symbolic moment in Swift’s timeline. Notably, the date 5/26 adds up to 13 (Taylor’s favorite number). And May 13—dubbed “Swift Day” by fans—falls exactly 13 days before the awards show.

With six AMA nominations this year, including Artist of the Year, Favorite Female Pop Artist, and Favorite Touring Artist, Swift’s presence would be fitting. She last performed at the AMAs in 2019 during her Artist of the Decade tribute. It’s a show filled with re-recording symbolism, long before the project was announced.

🎤 A New Era, Tour Film, or Album? Fans Sound Off

While many fans hope for a Reputation re-record announcement, others believe Swift could debut a new album (TS12). Or announce a tour documentary tied to The Eras Tour. A tour which continues to dominate charts and global stadiums.

Fan accounts on X have become buzzing hives of speculation:

• “Swift clown report 11/25/5: The AMAs are on May 26 – 5+2+6=13 – Swift Day in May is 13 days before the AMAs… Honey, I’m scared.”

• “TS12? REP TV? TOUR DOCUMENTARY?!!!!! Is it all happening?!!!!!”

One viral tweet put it plainly: “Do we think something is coming? Oh my God, it’s real!”

For Swifties, every detail feels intentional. Whether it’s a new release, a re-recording, or a surprise performance, Taylor Swift showing up at the 2025 American Music Awards is shaping up to be more than just a possibility. It’s a full-blown fan theory with receipts.

Conclusion
While Taylor Swift’s AMAs appearance hasn’t been officially confirmed, clues from her website, social media, and even Hulu’s Handmaid’s Tale suggest something big is on the horizon. Whether it’s the long-awaited Reputation (Taylor’s Version). Her mysterious TS12, Swift has fans counting down to May 26 with anticipation. And possibly decoding every capital letter along the way.
