Taylor Swift clapped back at critics who think her presence is a bit excessive.
During a recent appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on December 10, to promote her new Disney+ docuseries The End of an Era, she shared a message to people who want her to "just go away."
"I think what I look up to most in people is career longevity— career longevity, friendship longevity, longevity in their relationships, how do you keep a good thing going? I think there are certain corners of our society that really love that and look up to longevity," Taylor articulated her views on longevity.
But this is not the case for everyone, she noted, adding, "There are also corners that are like, 'Give someone else a turn. Can't you just go away so we can talk about how good you were?' And I'm like, I don't want to, you know?"
The popstar concluded her Eras tour in 2024 and has been releasing or rereleasing at least one album every year.
She further opened up about her career-spanning tour, calling it something special.
"I think what I thought in the beginning was... we were seeing all this insane demand for the tour, but I kind of just chalked it up to I've put out like five albums, I haven't gotten to tour any of them, there's just built up demand," she noted.
"I didn't realize it was gonna be this until you started hearing about people's experiences at the show, because my whole life I've been trying to study how do you not like just entertain people, but really transport them out of their problems, their life, their stresses? How do you really create a sense of escape?"
She soon realized her Eras tour was different than her previous ones when she was "reading articles where medical professionals are diagnosing ... all these fans who came to the Eras Tour with post-concert amnesia, they were getting, like, joy blackouts and I was like, 'Oh man, I think this one is different."
The End of an Era docuseries' first two parts are all set to release on December 12 on Disney+.
