Kardashian's footage shows the rapper reading Swift the original line, "I feel like Taylor Swift might owe me sex," which she approvingly described as "obviously very tongue-in-cheek."

"Happiness" also seems to reference Gatsby, Daisy, and the infamous green light. Swift said it's about "the realization that maybe the only path to healing is to wish happiness on the one who took it away from you." Also in verse two, Swift sings pointedly, "I hope she'll be a beautiful fool / Who takes my spot next to you." Finally, Swift makes Gatsby's influence clear by using the book's most famous symbol. In "The Great Gatsby," the green light at the end of Daisy's dock represents Gatsby's undying love (or obsession, depending on how you look at it).

However, you may still owe taxes if you made a profit on resold Taylor Swift tickets, experts say.

Despite placing her previous documentaries and concert films on streaming services in the past, the iconic pop star opted to deliver her Eras Tour film directly to cinemagoers this October. Of course, the theater company will generate significantly more than that in concession sales, perhaps the real upside to Swift's film release. "Taylor Swift, being a cultural powerhouse and shaper of new business models, may have a hand in bringing back the old-school style concert film."
