Taylor Swift Is Doing Things Differently On New Album The Life Of A Showgirl

Taylor Swift on stage in London last year during her Eras TourTaylor Swift is switching things up when it comes to her new album The Life Of A Showgirl.On Monday evening, the chart-topping singer announced that her 12th studio album was coming – and while no release date has been given, fans who have pre-ordered the vinyl version noted that it would be shipped before 13 October, suggesting her new music is less than two months away.Interestingly, while Taylor announced her previous two albums, Midnights and The Tortured Poets Department, during acceptance speeches at the MTV VMAs and Grammys, respectively, The Life Of A Showgirl was announced on her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s podcast New Heights.Posted at 12:12 on the 12th. ❤️🔥 Tay’s 12th album is called…………pre pre-order now at https://t.co/oGYV230otfpic.twitter.com/gUAIEEDZmm— New Heights (@newheightshow) August 12, 2025But her announcement strategy isn’t the only way the Love Story singer is seemingly shaking things up on her next release.The title The Life Of A Showgirl conjures up the idea of more grand and theatrical music than some of the more subdued, sombre cuts on The Tortured Poets Department – and there’s another major clue that Taylor is heading in a different direction musically, too.To coincide with the announcement, Taylor unveiled a new Spotify playlist titled “and baby, that’s show business for you…” featuring only songs of hers produced by Max Martin, suggesting a reunion between the two musical behemoths may be on the cards.For the last 30 years, Max Martin has been one of the biggest names in global pop music, writing and/or producing massive hits like Britney Spears’ …Baby One More Time, The Weeknd’s Blinding Lights, Katy Perry’s Teenage Dream, Pink’s So What and Ariana Grande’s No Tears Left To Cry, among countless others.His and Taylor’s collaborative efforts include I Knew You Were Trouble, We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together, Shake It Off, Blank Space, Style, Blank Space and …Ready For It?.If he and Shellback, another popular Swedish record producer and songwriter, are the sole producers on The Life Of A Showgirl, as is the rumour, the album will be Taylor’s first since 2012’s Red not to feature her regular collaborator Jack Antonoff.Taylor Swift's new Spotify playlist features 22 songs, all of which have been produced by Max Martin and Shellback.Her upcoming album ‘The Life of a Showgirl’ is rumored to be produced by the duo. pic.twitter.com/dScQhyUBbZ— Pop Crave (@PopCrave) August 12, 2025A lot has gone on in Taylor’s life since she wrote her most recent album The Tortured Poets Department.For one thing, she’s now in the most prolific relationship of her public life with NFL star Travis Kelce, and just last year completed her record-breaking Eras Tour, which showcased hits from across her career.More recently, she also settled the legal dispute surrounding her first six albums when she finally acquired their masters, having previously embarked on a project to re-record them all as “Taylor’s versions”.READ MORE:Denise Welch Shares The 1 Reason She's Not Losing Sleep Over Taylor Swift And Matty Healy's SplitSelena Gomez Throws Playful Shade At Her And Taylor Swift's Famous ExesAlexander Skarsgård Addresses Whether Taylor Swift Song Is About Him
