Long live Taylena! Selena Gomez is just like Us — listening to Taylor Swift’s Midnights the moment it dropped.“That she is,” the Only Murders in the Building star, 30, captioned a Friday, October 21, screenshot of her Apple Music account, in which “Mastermind” was playing.Swift, 32, released her 10th studio album — chock full of cryptic Easter eggs — at midnight on Friday to much fan excitement.“Midnights is a wild ride of an album, and I couldn’t be happier that my co-pilot on this adventure was @jackantonoff.

He’s my friend for life (presumptuous I know but I stand by it) and we’ve been making music together for nearly a decade HOWEVER… this is our first album we’ve done with just the two of us as main collaborators,” the “Christmas Tree Farm” songstress captioned an Instagram post at the time. “We’d been toying with ideas and had written a few things we loved, but Midnights actually really coalesced and flowed out of us when our partners [Joe Alwyn and Margaret Qualley, respectively] did a film together in Panama.

Jack and I found ourselves back in New York, alone, recording every night, staying up late and exploring old memories and midnights past.”She added: “Midnights is a collage of intensity, highs and lows and ebbs and flows.

Life can be dark, starry, cloudy, terrifying, electrifying, hot, cold, romantic or lonely. Just like Midnights.”Midnights features 13 powerful songs, including “Mastermind.” Swift also released a “3 a.m.” bonus version with seven additional “from the vault” tracks.
