Swiftie couple recreates Taylor Swift album covers
CBSN
Two married Swifties embarked on a mission to recreate all of Taylor Swift's album covers after the singer announced her new record "The Tortured Poets Department" at the Grammys in February.
Charlie Bird — the "major Swiftie" of the two, according to husband Ryan Clifford — had the idea after Swift made the surprise announcement while accepting the Grammy for best pop vocal album.
The project is a continuation of what the couple had done for Halloween last year — dressing up as Swift and her boyfriend Travis Kelce. Charlie shaved his head and Ryan had painstakingly recreated the red "Reputation" costume Swift wore during her Eras Tour in four days' time — with sequins galore.
