Taylor Swift has returned from her post-Eras tour hiatus with the announcement of her twelfth album, The Life of a Showgirl.
The official release date has not yet been revealed, but the pre-order vinyls or cassette tapes will ship before October 13, according to Swift’s website.
The vinyl is a glittery orange color with a green sleeve over it. The mint green cover has the cutout of a lock symbol over the disc. Not many more details are available at this time, but the album artwork is to be revealed at a later date
The songstress had a glittery orange background up on her website counting down to 12:12 ET or 9:12 PT. At 9 p.m. ET and 7 p.m. PT, Travis and Jason Kelce’s New Heights podcast announced that Swift would, indeed, be the special guest on Wednesday’s new episode, which drops at 7 p.m. ET. Fans had been speculating, some even going so far as to photoshop a picture of Swift into the mystery guest silhouette cutout on the promo shot for the episode.
Swift confirmed that it is her brand new album, The Life of a Showgirl, in the promo video for the New Heights episode arriving Wednesday, holding up a blurred out cover of the vinyl.
“Such a nice color on you,” Swift says to her beau in a different preview clip for the podcast as they sit next to each other, him wearing a blue sweatshirt.
“Yesss, I know. It’s the color of your eyes, sweetie,” Kelce said in reply to Swift. “It’s why we match so well.”
Then Swift excitedly says “We’re about to do a f*cking podcast!”
