I was 16 and couldn’t even fathom that that many people would care enough about my music to invest their time and energy into it. Since then, I’ve tried to meet and thank as many people as I could who have given me the chance to chase this insane dream,&quot; she recounted.The global pop star added. &quot;Here we are all these years later and a hundred times that many people showed up for me this week.&quot;Celebrating the milestone, Taylor expressed her heartfelt gratitude to fans who supported the album.&quot;I have 4 million thank you’s I want to send to the fans, and 4 million reasons to feel even more proud of this album than I already was. Thank you for going out to celebrate this project in the movie theaters, investing in vinyl, streaming, watching the video, buying CDs, reading the poems I wrote inside the packaging, and immersing yourselves in The Life of a Showgirl. I’ll cherish this feeling forever. Just wow. Thank you for the lovely bouquet 💐,&quot; she remarked.
