Los Angeles, California – Taylor Swift made a virtual appearance at the iHeartRadio Music Awards 2025, where her Eras Tour was celebrated as the tour of the century. The superstar, known for her iconic fashion choices, donned a black sweater and plaid miniskirt accessorized with a sleek snake-shaped choker, a nod to her “Reputation” album era.
Swift has always been known for her ability to reclaim negative narratives, as seen with her embrace of the snake motif following a social media altercation with Kim Kardashian in 2016. The Grammy winner used snakes as a symbol of empowerment during her “Reputation” era, incorporating snake prints and jewelry into her tour performances.
During her iHeartRadio Music Awards acceptance speech, Swift expressed gratitude for her Eras Tour, describing it as the most challenging yet rewarding experience of her career. She introduced a taped performance of “Mirrorball,” filmed during the acoustic set of her first Eras Tour show in Glendale, Arizona.
Swift dominated this year’s iHeartRadio Music Awards nominations with 10 nods, including artist of the year and best music video. Her virtual appearance at the event marked her first since the conclusion of the NFL season and the end of her groundbreaking Eras Tour.
Known for her fashion statements, Swift has previously stunned audiences at the Grammys and Super Bowl with custom-designed jewelry and eye-catching outfits. Despite enjoying some downtime post-tour, Swift continues to captivate fans with her attention to detail in her fashion choices, ensuring that every accessory tells a story.
