Taylor Swift fans were convinced that the singer was somehow connected to "Toy Story 5" for weeks. It started as a mysterious countdown clock, and a series of cryptic clues quickly turned into one of the internet’s biggest fan theories.
The mystery has been solved! The speculation surrounding a Taylor Swift and "Toy Story 5" collaboration turned out to be true, with the singer officially announcing a brand-new song created for the upcoming Pixar film.
Taylor Swift finally put weeks of speculation to rest on June 1 when she confirmed that she has written and recorded a song for "Toy Story 5."
The announcement arrived through a new countdown featured on TaylorSwift.com. Visitors were greeted by imagery centered around Jessie, one of the franchise’s most beloved characters, along with a "Toy Story 5" billboard displayed on a hillside in the background. The timer eventually counted down to the reveal that many fans had been predicting for weeks, as per reports by The Wrap and The Rolling Stone.
How did the Toy Story 5 rumors begin?
The road to the announcement began back on April 30 when Swift’s website briefly displayed a countdown featuring visuals that reminded fans of the iconic wallpaper from Andy’s bedroom in the "Toy Story" films.
The countdown disappeared shortly after appearing, but it was enough to send Swifties into detective mode.
The theories gained even more momentum when mysterious billboards started appearing across cities in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. The signs featured the letters "TS" beneath a Disney Pixar banner and included the familiar cloud-filled design associated with the franchise.
Fans quickly noticed another detail: the billboards contained 13 clouds, a number famously connected to Swift, as per reports by The Wrap and The Rolling Stone.
