Gypsy Rose Blanchard is a Swiftie — and right now, the song that she's queuing up the most is "Karma."
Blanchard spoke with The Hollywood Reporter following her December 2023 release from prison, where she'd served eight years after being convicted of second-degree murder in the 2015 killing of her mother, Dee Dee Blanchard, and ahead of the upcoming Lifetime documentary series "The Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard." In the interview, she spoke about how she plans to live her life after her release — and the music she's been listening to.
"I am a Swiftie," Blanchard told the publication. "All of her songs are really, really good. I really like the song 'Eyes Open,' and I'm really digging 'Karma' right now. 'Karma' has been what I have been playing on my playlist a lot. So I'm jamming out to that."
"Karma" is the 11th track from Swift's October 2022 album "Midnights." In the song, Swift sings about how her good karma manifests in a variety of pleasures: a "cat purring in my lap 'cause it loves me," or "a breeze in my hair on the weekend."
Swift has previously altered the lyrics of "Karma" to shout out her boyfriend, Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs. At a concert in Buenos Aires, Argentina in December 2023, she sang, "Karma is the guy on the Chiefs, coming straight home to me."
TMZ reported in November 2023, prior to Blanchard's release, that Blanchard and her husband Ryan Scott Anderson had tickets to the Chiefs' home game on December 31, 2023. According to TMZ, Blanchard hoped to meet Swift at the game, if Swift was also in attendance — and if that didn't work out, she planned to purchase tickets to Swift's October tour stop in New Orleans.
However, Blanchard doesn't appear to have been able to attend the Kansas City, Missouri game, posting a video from her home in Louisiana on December 31, 2023, and thanking people for their support.
"Everyone has been really, really nice and supportive, and I really appreciate that," Blanchard said in the video. "It's nice to be home, I'm back home in Louisiana, enjoying a beautiful day outside, and I've got a lot of great things happening really soon."
