Taylor Swift Wore a $9,000 'Reputation'-Coded Necklace in iHeartRadio Music Awards Speech

Taylor Swift is once again doing what she does best—winning awards and dropping Easter eggs for fans.

The "Fortnight" singer achieved yet another major milestone and accepted the Tour of the Century Award at the 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards on March 17. While the pop star was not in attendance, she used her outfit—and one particular item of jewelry—to hint that one of her Taylor's Version re-recorded albums might be on the way.

For her speech, Swift wore a very Reputation-coded outfit consisting of a fitted black crew neck long sleeved shirt, a black-and-white plaid Miu Miu skirt and, of course, her signature bold red lip in a recorded video.

“I’ve been doing a lot of processing since I’ve been off the road these last few months,” Swift said in the video. “And, you know, people often say that sometimes the greatest challenges in life end up being something you’re so proud of, or end up being the most gratifying feeling in the end, if you can rise to the occasion. And this tour was absolutely the most challenging thing I’ve ever done in my life. Three and a half hour shows, more shows than I’ve ever done on a tour, and it really was the most gratifying thing I’ve ever done."

“I think about that tour constantly,” she continued. “I’m so proud of it. And the only reason I was able to take on those challenges, among others, the ambition of the production, the length of the show, the amount of shows, all the different countries we played in, that’s all because of the fans. You made the songs for the last couple decades into what they became so that we could do a three and a half hour setlist. You had the passion and the generosity to care about traveling to see us on tour in all these places all over the world. It blows my mind. I’m never going to stop being grateful for it, and I appreciate this more than you know.”

The 35-year-old's gold award wasn't the only bling present during the video—Swift also wore a $9,000 Jacquie Aiche snake necklace in a 14 karat yellow gold, which ties in perfectly with Reputation's aesthetic.

Fans understandably saw the snake jewelry as a hint that Swift will release Reputation (Taylor's Version) sometime in the coming months—the album is one of two left she to re-record (alongside her self-titled, 2006 debut). "Please please please reputation taylor's version i need you i need you so bad no one understands you like i do," one Swiftie wrote on X.

"Now this is a taylor swift easter egg (i hope pls i want reputation tv so bad)," a second fan remarked, while another joked that Swift is "pregnant with reputation tv, Taylor Swift tv, AND TS12 IM 100% sure."
