Taylor Swift threw everything into perfecting her dancing after years of getting a “bad rap”.
Taylor Swift got “really in her head” after getting a “bad rap” for her dancing.
The 35-year-old pop megastar’s choreographer, Mandy Moore, who was behind the moves for the record-breaking Eras Tour, has praised the singer for her work ethic and the hours she put in perfecting her choreography after years of being insecure about her performances.
She told the New York Times: “She’d gotten a bad rap for a long time about her dancing, so she was really in her head.
“We shifted the focus to how movement was already manifesting in her body — the way she naturally wanted to move. And then we fine-tuned that: ‘OK, that looks a little weird with your shoulders,’ or, ‘Let’s straighten your knee here.’”
Praising the Grammy winner, she went on: “I really admire Taylor’s tenacity. She works so hard. Whatever I was putting down, she was picking up. And she’s very clear about what she wants, which I love. I find I can’t create unless I have some parameters. The ‘do whatever you want’ thing, for me, it just feels like chaos.”
Meanwhile, it was recently revealed that Taylor will release a docuseries about her Eras Tour in December.
The Fate of Ophelia singer has revealed the six-part Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour: The End of an Era will premiere on Disney+ on December 12, and on the same day, a new concert film, Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour: The Final Show – which was shot at the end of the record-breaking concert series in Vancouver – will also be released.
As announced on Good Morning America, the series will take an “an intimate look at Taylor’s life as her tour made headlines and thrilled fans around the world,” and feature “performers, family members, and friends” including tour opening acts Gracie Abrams and Sabrina Carpenter, and guests Ed Sheeran and Florence Welch.
The first two episodes will be released on December 12, with two more appearing the following week and the final two the week after that.
The concert film will give fans a glimpse of the Tortured Poets Department material that was added during the tour, as the album of the same name, which sparked a tweaking of the Eras Tour show, hadn’t been released before Taylor’s previous concert film hit cinemas.
A teaser trailer for the documentary lasting 99 seconds was released after the announcement, and the Cruel Summer hitmaker also formally announced the projects on her social media channels.
She wrote: “It was the End of an Era and we knew it.
“We wanted to remember every moment leading up to the culmination of the most important and intense chapter of our lives, so we allowed filmmakers to capture this tour and all the stories woven throughout it as it wound down. And to film the final show in its entirety.
“Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The End of an Era” is directed by Don Argott, co-directed by Sheena M. Joyce and produced by Object + Animal.
“Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | The Final Show,” meanwhile, is directed by Glenn Weiss and produced by Taylor Swift Productions in association with Silent House Productions. (sic)”
