Taylor Swift heads straight for her fans as she leaves her hotel in New York City on Wednesday afternoon.

Taylor Swift signed autographs and snapped pics with waiting fans before heading off to an awaiting car for her concert in Newark, New Jersey.

“It’s such an amazing experience being surrounded by fifty thousand people who are all singing the same thing,” Taylor recently shared with press. “You look out and it’s just this never-ending sea of people for as far as you can see and I just felt so lucky to get to have that life experience and that memory forever in my head.”
