Swifties can count Gypsy Rose Blanchard as one of their own.
In a new interview with The Hollywood Reporterthe Munchausen by proxy victim, who was released from prison on December 28, opened up about her love for Taylor Swift and revealed her favorite songs from the Grammy winner’s catalog.
“I’m a Swiftie. All of her songs are really, really good,” Blanchard, 32, told the paper before releasing her two current songs for Swift.
“I really like the song ‘Eyes Open,'” she continued, naming the uplifting anthem Swift, 34, recorded for the 2012 film’s soundtrack. Hunger Gameswhich contains the lyrics: “Everybody’s waiting for you to break / Everybody’s watching to see the fallout / Even when you’re sleeping / Keep your eyes open.”
“And I’m loving ‘Karma’ right now,” Blanchard added, referring to the single from Swift’s 2022. Midnight album. “‘Karma’ was what I played a lot on my playlist. So I’m getting into it.”
“Karma” contains lyrics about looking at the positive elements of life so as not to dwell on the negative. “Karma is my boyfriend / Karma is god / Karma is the breeze in my hair on the weekends / Karma is a relaxing thought / Aren’t you envious that you don’t?” sings Swift in the song’s chorus.
Gypsy was released early Thursday after serving eight years of a 10-year sentence. In 2016, she pleaded guilty to the second-degree murder of her mother Dee Dee Blanchard. Her boyfriend at the time, Nicholas “Nick” Godejohn, with whom she was scheming, was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison.
Dee Dee subjected Gypsy to unnecessary medical treatment and convinced her daughter and others that Gypsy had a number of childhood illnesses. It was claimed in court that Gypsy was a victim of Munchausen syndrome by proxy.
In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE before her release, Gypsy revealed that she would change her past if she could.

“If I had the chance to do it all over again, I don’t know if I would go back to when I was a kid and tell my aunts and uncles that I’m not sick and that my mom is making me sick, or would I travel Let’s just go back to the point of that conversation with Nick and say to him: ‘You know what, I’m going to tell everything to the police,’ she said.
However, Gypsy also clarified, “No one will ever hear me say that I’m glad she’s dead or that I’m proud of what I did. I regret that every day.”
