Taylor Swift is finally taking a breath after the whirlwind that was the Eras Tour and a monumental year in her personal and professional life. During a candid appearance on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” the global superstar reflected on longevity, advice from mentors, and the unexpected ways she decompresses when the stadium lights fade.
Taylor Swift says she orders the ‘most amount of room service possible’
After performing to millions across five continents and wrapping a nearly two-year tour — while also navigating major life milestones, including her engagement to Travis Kelce — Taylor Swift admitted that coming down from the adrenaline of a three-hour show is anything but simple.
She compared the post-concert feeling to a “flickering lightbulb,” buzzing with energy long after she exits the stage. Her solution? A ritual that is both soothing and indulgent.
Swift told Colbert that she heads straight for a bath the moment she gets back to her hotel room. She jokingly referred to this phase as “mermaid time,” describing it as an essential reset after hours of non-stop movement, singing, and costume changes.
However, it’s what comes after the bath that surprised fans. The singer orders as much room service as she can get her hands on.
“Yes, everything, everything I want on that given night,” she said when asked if that includes French fries. She went on to explain that the feast isn’t just comfort eating, but a way to “power up” from the physical toll of performing night after night.
The “Wildest Dreams” singer admitted that shutting off her creative brain is one of the hardest parts of winding down. To quiet the constant flow of ideas, she typically turns to true crime — specifically “Dateline” — or an audiobook filled with dark twists, gothic settings, or unreliable narrators.
What’s more, her at-home life stands in stark contrast to her stadium persona. Swift joked that if someone saw her through a window at home — often dressed in a Victorian-style nightgown — they might think they’d spotted a “ghost.” She prefers her living space to be simple and cozy, without signs of her massive career scattered across the walls.
