Taylor Swift fans waited over five hours on Tuesday to attend a pop-up poetry library in Los Angeles to celebrate the release week of the 34-year-old 'Karma' hitmaker's upcoming album, The Tortured Poet's Department.
Swifties were lining up around the block for the Spotify-sponsored special event, which started at five in the morning, giving them a sneak peek at Swift's upcoming 11th studio album.
The album Swift previously revealed at the Grammy Awards two months ago will be available on Friday, April 19.
The exhibit was located at the Grove's Cheesecake Factory, across the street from where Kanye West—Swift's longtime rival—and his wife, Bianca Censori, regularly dine.
A tambourine, a perpetual calendar set to Friday, December 13, a notebook with the words "US" scrawled on the back, a fountain pen, and a clock stuck on "2:00 PM" were among the carefully curated items that fans went through and then spoke about on social media.
There was also a small statue of Diana of Ephesus, the moon goddess and goddess of childbirth and fertility.
"After years of neglect, the original statue of Diana succumbed to the passage of time and the elements and crumbled while waiting to be shipped to London in the 6th century," one fan wrote.
Some Swifties saw this as a jab at Swift's 33-year-old ex, British actor Joe Alwyn.
Swift released the album's tracklist in February, which features collaborations with Florence & The Machine and Post Malone.
One item seen on a small bookshelf was an antique typewriter that had Swift's tracklist printed on one of its pages.
Furthermore, a section of the bookshelf had an hourglass, a jar containing puzzle pieces, and several books.
A gold birdcage was also positioned among the books, and one of the books was titled Fresh Out The Slammer. A tiny filing drawer with Swift's name can also be seen, and some half-open drawers have dried flowers sticking out of them.
