Taylor Swift attends Toy Story 5 LA world premiere

moviesJun 10, 2026321,081

Toy Story 5's Los Angeles world premiere brought Taylor Swift to the red carpet as she promoted her original end-credits song for the film. Onstage Swift performed "I Knew It, I Knew You" and surprised the audience with a duet of "You've Got a Friend in Me" alongside composer Randy Newman. Creators are turning those moments into quick illustrations, short performance clips and edits, cosplay with Jessie dolls, and fashion breakdowns of Swift's Easter-egg Erdem dress. Recurring subjects include Jessie, the Newman duet, and Swift getting her childhood Toy Story VHS signed by Tom Hanks and Tim Allen.

Taylor at the world premiere of T*a*y Story 5 in Erdem.
Her original song for the film, "I Knew It, I Knew You", broke records upon release as the biggest soundtrack single based on first-day plays.
Among my surface-level takeaways was what a playful homage the dress is to the landscape of Toy Story. It's a little Western (perhaps a nod to Jessie, the character who inspired "I Knew It") and a little whimsical yet sweet
- fitting for a family film. There's also a nod to Taylor's magpie tendencies; has she ever met a sequin she didn't love? Styling-wise, I'm a sucker for a bow and a minimalist sandal. A half-updo - including a cute braid - keeps things relaxed.
Diving deeper, Taylor's dress comes from Erdem's FW26 presentation titled "The Imaginary Conversation." Created for the house's 20th anniversary, Erdem Moralioglu conceived the collection as a "dialogue" between Erdem's muses that gets woven into the looks through richly textured brocades, florals, and frayed edges. Moralioglu described the concept as a "mashup", thoughtfully revisiting Erdem house codes through his signature romantic lens.
Several parallels caught my attention. Wearing a dress celebrating 20 years of Erdem to an event positioning Taylor's return to her country roots feels like an apt bookend as her career approaches the 20th anniversary of her debut album this fall. It's the second time she's recently nodded to a 20th anniversary, following the Stella McCartney x H&M top she wore to a Cavaliers game last month. Toy Story 5 also arrives in theatres on June 19 - the 20th anniversary of her first single, "Tim

Apart from the fact that Randy's still got it, it is beyond wholesome seeing him and Taylor Swift singing the same song together on stage! I thought Taylor would sing it like Robert Goulet before her, but this is incredible! It's like seeing two natural wonders at the same time!

If Disney puts their Oscar push behind a Randy Newman song from Toy Story 5 instead of Taylor Swift’s that would be legitimately one of the funniest things in recent memory.

Let's not forget that Taylor Swift is not the only one who wrote a song for Toy Story. The main writer is still Randy Newman and I don't think that her song will stands out enough to compete with the soundtrack of Random Newman.

Thanks Taylor but you know we’re just gonna stick with what works and go with Randy’s “My Plastic Pal (Theme from Toy Story 5)”
