Taylor Swift’s About To Go Showgirl

And baby, that's showbusiness for you.

POSTED BY ZOE TYLER

Taylor Swift just dropped the ultimate tease for her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, in true chaotic-good fashion—blurred cover art, orange-coded chaos, and a podcast cameo with her tight end bae’s bro. Welcome to the Swift multiverse, where every glittery crumb leads to an explosion.

A Pod, A Blur, A Bombshell

Tay casually broke the internet with a New Heights teaser, the Travis and Jason Kelce podcast, flaunting the (blurred out) album art for The Life of a Showgirl. The full ep drops August 13 at 7PM ET, and yes, Swifties are already foaming at the mouth.

This title’s a major switch-up from her recent one-word girlies (Lover, folklore, Midnights)—but hey, The Tortured Poets Department (2024) walked so this drama queen could high-kick. No official release date yet, because duh, it’s Taylor. But pre-order vinyls are live on her site, promising delivery before October 13. The Swift-verse is betting big on an October drop—possibly the 13th or 17th. Fridays. Halloween vibes. You get the picture.

Taylor’s been throwing hints like confetti. Literal orange confetti. From Eras Tour fits to a very citrus-coded Insta dump (12 pics, hello 12th album), the orange aesthetic is screaming new era. Even Travis Kelce's teaser had a tangerine-tinted background. Subtle? Absolutely not. This is Swift-coded algebra.

No song titles, no track count, no sonic direction. Could be pop. Could be burlesque-folk. Could be jazzercise-core. We’re in the dark, babe—but the Showgirl title hints at camp, glamour, and maybe even a little Las Vegas fever dream.
