Taylor Swift is preparing for “Female Rage: The Musical.”
On May 11, the pop superstar’s TAS Rights Management company filed an application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to trademark “Female Rage: The Musical,” a term Swift recently used to describe the newly added Eras Tour set for her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department.
While the office accepted the application for meeting requirements, an examining attorney hasn’t been assigned to the filing, per the organization’s website. However, Swifties are already wondering — and predicting — what the phrase could meаn.
“‘Female Rage: The Musical’ will be a film that will include her performances of the TTPD section on The Eras, the behind the scenes, rehearsals and preparation of her and her dancers, and a large-scale visual package to promote the album, with narration by Taylor Swift,” predicted one fan on X (formerly Twitter).
“now what if she releases another eras tour movie called « female rage : The Musical » with the new setlist and costumes,” wrote another user on the social media platform.
According to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the application for “Female Rage: The Musical” seeks the right to use the term in relation to musical sound recordings, jewelry, clothing, live performances and additional merchandise. Swift often files such applications ahead of the release of new batches of logoed merch and other paraphernalia.
After referring to the TTPD section of the Eras Tour as “Female Rage: the Musical” on stage during one of her recent Paris concerts, Swift used the phrase once again in an Instagram post about the shows on May 12.
“This post is dedicated to the new Tortured Poets section of the Eras Tour (aka Female Rage The Musical!) and everyone who made these memories so magical,” wrote the “Karma” singer.
“To my crew, fellow performers, and band who worked tirelessly in their break to concoct this surprise for you – but mostly for the fans in Paris,” continued Swift. “I’m so thankful that it was you we got to show this to for the first time because you gave us so much excitement, passion, and love. I’m SO fired up to play this for every crowd on the tour. See you very soon, Stockholm!”
