Tonight’s the night Swifties have been waiting for — another Taylor Swift album is about to drop.
“The Life of a Showgirl” is Swift’s 12th studio album, with an orange and teal theme, and it will be available at midnight.
The new album was announced via a countdown on Swift’s website that ended at 12:12 a.m. on Aug. 12.
Swift revealed the title of the album in a collaborative post with the New Heights podcast hosted by Swift’s now-fiancé, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, and his brother, retired fellow footballer Jason Kelce.
“So, I wanted to show you something,” she tells the Kelce brothers in the video, NPR said, opening up a vinyl record case with her initials in orange. She pulled out a record with the cover blurred out. “This is my brand new album, ‘The Life of a Showgirl.’”
There are 12 tracks on the album, People reported:
1. “The Fate of Ophelia”
2. “Elizabeth Taylor”
3. “Opalite”
4. “Father Figure”
5. “Eldest Daughter”
6. “Ruin The Friendship”
7. “Actually Romantic”
8. “Wi$h Li$t”
9. “Wood”
10. “CANCELLED!”
11. “Honey”
12. “The Life of a Showgirl” (ft. Sabrina Carpenter)
“This is the record I’ve been wanting to make for a very long time,” she said of the album, which she recorded in Sweden amid her Eras Tour, collaborating with Max Martin and Shellback, according to People.
At midnight, Swifties will be able to stream the album on all major music platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon Music.
For fans who want easy access to the album, they can pre-save it ahead of time, which will ensure it will automatically appear in their library the moment it is available, the outlet said.
Spotify announced that “The Life of Showgirl” album has surpassed 5 million pre-saves on its platform to become the most pre-saved album in its history. The previous title holder was Swift’s 2024 album “The Tortured Poets Department.”
The new album will also have a digital-download variant available via iTunes — featuring a new cover image and a nearly three-minute “exclusive video from Taylor herself detailing inspirations behind the album” labeled “A Look Behind the Curtain.”
