Breaking News:Taylor Swift fans invade the Chelsea Hotel: ‘My favorite cocktail spot is going to be overrun’

Published

Some people visit the Chelsea Hotel because they want to be in the vicinity of the rooms where Bob Dylan wrote “Sara,” Sid Vicious stabbed Nancy Spungen, Arthur Miller recovered from his divorce from Marilyn Monroe and Janis Joplin pleasured Leonard Cohen.

But, Taylor Swift fans are flocking to the counterculture landmark because she sings “You’re not Dylan Thomas, I’m not Patti Smith/ This ain’t the Chelsea Hotel/ We’re modern idiots” on the title track of her chart-topping new album, “The Tortured Poets Department.”

Swift’s latest dropped on April 19 in two parts, at midnight and 2 a.m. Later that morning, a hotel staffer said he began to see groups of people who appeared to be Swifties descend upon his workplace — and they’ve kept coming. (Hotel PR declined to participate in this story or offer any comment on the phenomenon.)

“I knew I had to pay some kind of homage to the Chelsea Hotel,” Amanda Rykoff, a 53-year-old Taylor fanatic who works in non-profits, told The Post.

Rykoff lives in West Hollywood, Calif., but she just happened to have her annual trip to New York planned for a week after the album’s release. There was no question that she would go to the hotel, in addition to heading to Central Park and seeing Billy Joel play at Madison Square Garden.
