At the Grammy awards on Sunday, Taylor actually brought up her love for the digit after winning Album of the Year. ‘This is my 13th Grammy. 13 is my lucky number, I don’t know if I ever told you that,’ she joked
‘The stars are aligned,’ one person wrote while discussing all of the coincidences.

Taylor first made her love for the number public back in 2009, after she started painting it on her hand before hitting the stage.
When asked about it by MTV News later that year, she explained, ‘I paint this on my hand before every show because 13 is my lucky number for a lot of reasons.
‘It’s really weird. I was born on the 13th. I turned 13 on Friday the 13th. My first album went gold in 13 weeks.
‘My first number one song had a 13-second intro. Every time I’ve won an award I’ve been seated in either the 13th seat, the 13th row, the 13th section or row M, which is the 13th letter.
Taylor (seen in 2011) previously said of the number, ‘I was born on the 13th. My first album went gold in 13 weeks. Every time I’ve won an award I’ve been seated in the 13th row’

‘Basically whenever a 13 comes up in my life, it’s a good thing.’

She released her recent Eras Tour concert movie on October 13, and charged $13.13 for children’s tickets to it.
Not to mention that at the Grammy awards on Sunday, she actually brought up her love for the digit after winning Album of the Year.
‘This is my 13th Grammy. 13 is my lucky number, I don’t know if I ever told you that,’ she joked on stage during her acceptance speech.
