Rumours of Taylor Swift‘s involvement in Toy Story 5 have been revived once again. Speculation was first sparked last month, after the pop star posted a cryptic countdown on her website, which was taken down before it had a chance to be completed on May 2. While it was never mentioned what the countdown was for, some fans became convinced that it signalled a collaboration between the singer and the upcoming Toy Story film. This was largely due to the colour scheme of the website and its inclusion of Toy Story-esque clouds. Others took to dissecting Swift’s outfits for clues, noting that she’d worn a horseshoe necklace, and dressing primarily in sky blue, white, yellow, and red – colours frequently seen across the franchise. With Toy Story 5 set to arrive in cinemas on June 19, creators recently addressed the viral rumours, confirming that the singer has not contributed to the soundtrack. However, just a day afterwards, a cryptic billboard bearing the initials “TS” was unveiled against the film’s iconic blue sky and white cloud backdrop. Swifties counted all 13 clouds on display, and traded theories that it was a nod to Swift’s famously lucky number. Speculation then intensified over the weekend (Saturday May 30) when Pixar d an image of said billboard on social media, accompanied ’s Jessie dancing. “She’s making those moves up as she goes!” they captioned the Instagram post, a line that many fans took as as a reference to lyrics in Swift’s 2014 hit ‘Shake It Off’, in which she singings: “I’m dancin’ on my own (Dancin’ on my own)/ I make the moves up as I go (Moves up as I go).” As noted ‘1989 (Taylor’s Version)’ has been updated across Apple Music, Spotify and other streaming platforms, with its original seagulls replaced director McKenna Harris and producer Lindsey Collins said in May. They’d all said they were “surprised” to see the rumours getting so much momentum and added that they were “honoured” that people were convinced that the pop star would want to write new music for the movie (via USA Today). “It would be pretty amazing,” Collins said, before Stanton clarified that Swift has not contributed to the ending song. “The sad truth is we watched the movie being mixed last week, and the song on the end was not Taylor Swift,” he said. The film is produced 4. Since then, there has been a spin off film called Lightyear, which arrived in cinemas four years ago and traced Buzz’s backstory. Swift’s last album was 2025′ ‘The Life of a Showgirl‘, which was inspired ‘Eras’ tour. It soon became the best-selling album of that year in the UK – making Swift the first artist to have the top seller in consecutive years for different albums since ABBA in 1977.
