Stephen Colbert, whose show will end in May 2026, asked Taylor Swift for advice on how to navigate major life transitions.

Swift, who recently completed her 21-month Eras Tour, offered some wise advice, by channeling creative energy into new hobbies and spending more time with loved ones.

Swift even joked about her current hobby of baking sourdough bread.

Furthermore, Taylor Swift responded to critics who want her to "disappear" or "give someone else their turn."

She firmly stated that she values ​​longevity in her career, friendships, and relationships.

Swift doesn't want to "just disappear" from the music industry or public life, while believing that consistency and dedication are key to maintaining relevance.

One of the most anticipated moments in the interview was when Taylor Swift discussed her engagement to NFL star Travis Kelce.

With a beaming smile, she called Kelce "the love of my life" and expressed her deep gratitude for the engagement.

These two major achievements, she said, might never have happened without the overwhelming support of her fans and the fantastic revenue from the Eras Tour.

Her latest album, "Life of a Showgirl," released in October 2025, also became a hot topic since it became the best-selling album of 2025.

Taylor Swift's fight to regain her music master rights is an inspiring story for many artists.

Taylor Swift is also promoting her six-part documentary series on Disney+, titled "The End of an Era."

The series will detail the creation and execution of the phenomenal Eras Tour, which the first two episodes are scheduled for release on December 12, 2025.

Swift describes the Eras Tour as "a lifetime of my life."

When asked to choose her five favorite songs, Taylor Swift quickly named "All Too Well (10-Minute Version)" as number one and also added "Mirrorball" as one of her favorites.

In the interview, Taylor Swift also revealed three people who are her most trusted sources of advice, such as music legend Stevie Nicks, accomplished producer and songwriter Max Martin, and her fiancé, Travis Kelce.

Swift credits Stevie Nicks with paving the way for many female artists.

Meanwhile, Max Martin is recognized as one of the greatest composers, producers, and songwriters in the industry.

Beyond the interview, Taylor Swift's appearance at the Ed Sullivan Theater also stole the show.

She arrived in a cream Max Mara teddy bear coat, a plaid Miu Miu miniskirt, an AGOLDE bodysuit, and Christian Louboutin knee-high boots.

During the interview, she changed into a $1,695 burgundy velvet David Koma minidress, paired with matching Aquazzura heels.

Her accessories included a vintage 18-karat gold necklace with rubies and diamonds, and her signature red lipstick.

Her engagement ring from Travis Kelce was also clearly visible.

Observant fans even noticed the opal bracelet she was wearing, thought to be a tribute to Kelce, as opal is her fiancé's birthstone and appears in Swift's song "Opalite."

Swift and Colbert also joked about the idea of ​​a mystery novel Colbert could write after the show ended.

Swift pitched a unique plot idea, involving a mossy house off the coast of Maine, a mistress who turns out to be a relative, and a cliff-fall involving a ghost.
