THE “TIME GLITCH” THAT BROKE THE RED CARPET?! — Taylor Swift at iHeartRadio 2026 has fans convinced she just stepped out of 2015… and no one can explain it.

From the shimmering corset to the soft glam and signature hairstyle, everything felt like a real-life rewind.

Taylor Swift shines in showgirl-worthy corset on iHeartRadio Music Awards 2026 red carpet

This showgirl’s ready for her stage.

Taylor Swift made her first awards show appearance of the year at Thursday’s iHeartRadio Music Awards 2026, hitting the red carpet at LA’s Dolby Theatre wearing a mint green corset and matching miniskirt by Wiederhoeft, along with Jimmy Choo sandals in the same soft shade.

Her bustier top included visible boning, shimmering beadwork and playful fringe that were perfectly in line with the aesthetic of her latest album, “The Life of a Showgirl.”

Swift wore her hair in a half-up style and swapped her signature red lipstick for a soft, glossy pink. She finished her look with dazzling Dena Kemp earrings set with bi-color tourmalines, a Nak Armstrong ear cuff, rings from Selim Mouzannar and L’Dezen — and her massive engagement ring from fiancé Travis Kelce, who joined her at the show.

She’s this year’s most-nominated artist with a total of nine nods, including for artist of the year, pop artist of the year, favorite tour style (for the Eras Tour) and song of the year for “The Fate of Ophelia.”

Swift has attended the iHeartRadio Music Awards a number of times over the years — most recently in 2023, when she accepted the Innovator Award in a crystal-covered hooded jacket, pants and boots from Alexandre Vauthier Couture that lent the look of a jumpsuit.

In 2019, she embodied her “Lover” aesthetic in an iridescent sequined Rosa Bloom romper paired with butterfly-adorned Sophia Webster sandals. She took home two awards during the ceremony: tour of the year (for her “Reputation” stadium tour) and best music video (for “Delicate”).

She also attended the show in 2016, sporting a sleek black sequined Saint Laurent and a blunt-cut bob and taking home the awards for artist of the year, song of the year (for “Shake It Off”) and best lyrics (for “Blank Space”).

And Swift made her iHeartRadio Music Awards debut in 2015, hitting the step-and-repeat in a shimmering black cutout minidress from Kaufman Franco before performing alongside Madonna and scooping up three statuettes during the show.

More than a decade later, the superstar still knows how to make a dramatic entrance.

50 YEARS AGO, 7 COLLEGE KIDS STARTED ACTING IN AN 88-SEAT CHURCH BASEMENT. LAST NIGHT, ONE OF THEM HELD HER 3RD TONY. Laurie Metcalf just won Best Featured Actress in a Play at the 79th Tony Awards for her role as Linda Loman in Death of a Salesman — alongside Nathan Lane, directed by Joe Mantello. This is her 3rd Tony. Her 7th nomination. But what she did at Radio City Music Hall wasn’t about the numbers. She stood up there and named 6 people. Not agents. Not producers. Six college friends from Illinois State University who started Steppenwolf Theatre together — in a church basement. Gary Sinise. John Malkovich. Jeff Perry. Terry Kinney. Moira Harris. Al Wilder. “I still consider them family,” she said. “I still draw on lessons I learned from them.” After everything — the Emmys, the Oscar nomination, decades on Roseanne — the first people she thanked were the ones who knew her before any of it mattered. Some things don’t change, even after 50 years.

THEY FIRED HIM ON A TUESDAY. BY SATURDAY, HE WAS SMILING ON A SAILBOAT. Scott Pelley spent 37 years at CBS News. He anchored the Evening News. He reported from war zones. He won dozens of Emmys. And last week, on his new boss’s very first day, he stood up in a staff meeting and said what nobody else would. He told executive producer Nick Bilton he’d “never be welcome here.” He accused CBS chief Bari Weiss of “murdering” 60 Minutes. But what Pelley claimed they asked him to do behind the scenes — that part changes everything. Within 24 hours, he was handed a termination letter. Fired “for cause.” 37 years, gone in a single page. Then Saturday morning, he posted a photo on Instagram. No anger. Just him at the helm of a sailboat, hands on the wheel, American flag behind him, looking out at open water. His only words: “You are the wind in my sails. So deeply grateful.”
