Taylor Swift Announces Upcoming Album "The Life of a Showgirl"
Pop superstar Taylor Swift has announced her highly anticipated 12th studio album, titled "The Life of a Showgirl." The album is set to be released on October 3, 2025[1][3][4].
The announcement was made on Travis Kelce's podcast, New Heights, with the help of Travis Kelce and his brother Jason Kelce. The news came as a surprise to fans who had been speculating about the release of Swift's new album, following hints from Taylor Nation, an official branch of Swift's marketing team[1][2].
The album's cover art was first teased in a blurred form on a podcast episode with Travis and Jason Kelce[1]. The album is produced by Swift alongside Max Martin and Shellback, known for their collaborations with the singer[4].
The album follows Swift's 2024 Grammy announcement and aligns with the theme of the number 12 often appearing in her promotions. The release timing is also close to Travis Kelce's birthday (October 5), which may be a notable connection for fans[1].
In a clip shared on Instagram at 12:12 a.m. ET on Tuesday, Swift revealed the album. The album's vinyl edition will be available in a special Portofino orange glitter color, and a special cassette edition is also available for pre-order[3][4].
Interestingly, Taylor Swift wore orange in every image of a TikTok slide show posted by Taylor Nation on Monday. This could be a hint at the album's colour theme.
"The Life of a Showgirl" is the fifth re-recorded album, following Fearless (Taylor's Version), Red (Taylor's Version), and 1989 (Taylor's Version). Swift has been re-recording and releasing her albums to regain control of her music, with four re-recorded albums so far. Each re-recorded album has debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
No release date for the album has been announced yet, but fans can expect an exciting journey with the release of "The Life of a Showgirl." The vinyl edition of the album is expected to ship before October 13th[3][4].
Taylor Swift's album "The Life of a Showgirl" is set to bring a new wave of entertainment, as it features music productions by Max Martin and Shellback. Fans might find the album's color theme hinted in the orange outfits Taylor Swift wore in recent promotional images.
