Love her or hate her, Taylor Swift is one of the most ubiquitous pop stars. Everything from who she dates to what she wears winds up splattered across headlines. Most recently, the world wanted to know why Taylor Swift missed the 2020 Grammys despite being nominated for three awards. Some publications speculated that the singer skipped the show to spend time with her mother Andrea, who is battling cancer, but the singer herself hasn’t confirmed the reason.
Before sitting out on the Grammys, Swift shook Sundance with the premiere of her Netflix documentary, Miss Americana. Hundreds of Swifties clustered outside the theatre, hoping to catch a peek of the revealing new film, which was officially released on January 31.
The Taylor Swift documentary discusses her transformative past few years. The mega star opens up about her eating disorder, sexual assault trial and decision to speak up about politics. Swift has been pretty hush-hush about her boyfriend Joe Alwyn and continues her tight-lipped attitude throughout the documentary, but attentive viewers can catch glimpses of Swift hugging Alwyn or mouthing “I love you.” Some Taylor Swift fans also excitedly noticed a potential diamond engagement ring on the singer’s hand.
Fans aren’t the only ones raving about the intimate look Taylor Swift: Miss Americana provides into the life of the celebrated star: The documentary received a standing ovation at Sundance. Critics are calling it genuine, vulnerable, self-aware and inspiring. Watch Miss Americana now on Netflix to see what all the hype’s about for yourself.
