Swifties Break the Internet — Again
Taylor Swift is redefining fan mania with her upcoming 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl. Just a week after selling out three deluxe CD editions, the singer’s newly released vinyl variants vanished from her online store in less than an hour on August 18, despite being scheduled for a 48-hour sale.
The two collectible variants, part of the Shiny Bug Collection, included “Violet Shimmer Marbled” and “Wintergreen & Onyx Marbled.” Both sold out almost instantly, highlighting the unmatched demand for Swift’s music and merchandise.
The Album Announcement
Swift first teased the project with a mysterious countdown on her website on August 12 at 12:12 a.m. ET, sparking speculation across social media. She later confirmed The Life of a Showgirl during an appearance on the New Heights podcast alongside boyfriend and NFL star Travis Kelce.
“This is my brand-new album, The Life of a Showgirl,” Swift said in a teaser clip, revealing that the record will feature 12 tracks and is set for release on October 3, 2025.
More Than Just Music
The deluxe CD versions launched earlier gave fans a deeper look into her personal reflections, professional journey, and Eras Tour experiences. Meanwhile, her latest podcast appearance sparked buzz about a potential Super Bowl 2025 performance, especially since it coincides with Kelce’s 13th NFL season — a number Swift famously considers lucky.
