Taylor Swift Drops 12th Studio Album ‘The Life of a Showgirl’, Breaks Spotify Record
Taylor Swift has released her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, and it has already made history as the most pre-saved album ever on Spotify, surpassing the record set by her 2024 release, The Tortured Poets Department.
The 35-year-old superstar reunited with Swedish hitmakers Max Martin and Shellback for the highly anticipated project, a collection of upbeat, glittery pop tracks.
“Tonight all these lives converge here, the mosaics of laughter and cocktails of tears … I can’t tell you how proud I am to share this with you, an album that just feels so right,” Swift wrote on Instagram, posting photos of herself in dazzling showgirl outfits.
Describing the album as a “self-portrait,” she thanked her longtime collaborators while hinting at parallels with her record-breaking Eras Tour: “If you thought the big show was wild, perhaps you should come and take a look behind the curtain.”
The 12-track record presents a lighter, more joyful Swift, inspired by her relationship with NFL Super Bowl champion fiancé Travis Kelce and her triumph in reclaiming ownership of her music catalogue.
Ahead of its release, Swift said the album was born from “the most infectiously joyful, wild, dramatic place I was in in my life.” As always, fans are now eagerly dissecting lyrics and liner notes for hidden “Easter eggs” that could signal future projects or revelations from the singer’s personal life.
