Taylor Swift confirms October album release for The Life of A Showgirl
Unveiling a copy of the new record, the singer said: 'This is my new album, The Life Of A Showgirl. It's something I was working on while I was in Europe on the Eras tour.'
A post shared by Taylor Swift (@taylorswift)
Travis Kelce said the fact that Swift recorded the album while simultaneously travelling the world for her sold-out tour was 'still blowing my mind'.
Swift said: 'I just love music. I would be playing shows three nights in a row then I would have three days off.
'I would fly to Sweden. Working on this, I was physically exhausted at this point in the tour, but I was so mentally stimulated and so excited to be creating.'
In an Instagram post, the 35-year-old revealed the album's artwork and 12-track listing – with Sabrina Carpenter featuring on the title song and only collaboration.
The Life Of A Showgirl is Swift's first album since regaining control over her back catalogue and purchasing the rights to all of her concert films, music videos, album art and photography, as well as her unreleased songs.
The US popstar re-recorded her first six albums and released them as Taylor's Version, following a dispute with retired talent manager Scooter Braun.
Braun acquired the back catalogue when he bought Swift's former label.
Her master copies were then sold in a deal with Shamrock Capital, before Swift purchased them from the company in May.
Swift has released new versions of Fearless (2008), Red (2012), Speak Now (2010) and 1989 (2014).
Her 12th album follows 2024's The Tortured Poets Department, and comes after Swift's billion-dollar, record-breaking Eras Tour ended in December.
She made history last summer when the tour became the highest-grossing of all time, and Swift became the first solo artist to perform at London's Wembley Stadium eight times on a single tour.
Swift has had four UK number one singles and 13 UK number one albums, and some of her best-known songs include Love Story, Shake It Off and 22.

Peter Andre shares united family snap as Katie Price hits back with 'sinners' statement
The Mysterious Girl singer has posted an image of his family on social media after hitting out at Katie Price's claims that he is a "fake saint" during their public feud Peter Andre has broken his silence on social media with a telling family photo just days after his explosive fallout with ex-wife Katie Price. The Mysterious Girl singer, 52, posted the snap on Instagram after a turbulent week where Katie, 47, branded him a "fake saint" in a public swipe. The former couple, who share children Junior and Princess, have been locked in a fresh feud over their daughter's new reality TV series. Katie recently accused Peter and his management team of cutting her out of Princess' career and even claimed she was banned from her daughter's 18th birthday party. It comes after Princess Andre says she's 'independent' from parents as she breaks silence after Katie Price row. READ MORE: Katie Price's cryptic response to Peter Andre statement in full as she calls herself a 'sinner' But Peter responded fiercely with a lengthy Instagram statement in which he said he would no longer remain silent. He wrote: "For sixteen years, I have stayed silent in the face of repeated lies from my ex-wife and her family, out of respect for my children and loved ones, but staying silent has been incredibly frustrating. That ends today." He added: "The latest comments about my children's welfare and living arrangements compel me to set the record straight. For well-documented reasons, and for their safety, Junior and Princess came into my care in 2018 and remained with me until they reached adulthood. In 2019, the family courts issued a legally binding order to enforce this arrangement. I have never made this public before, out of respect for my children." The singer went on to accuse Katie of repeating false claims that were already dismissed in earlier court cases, adding: "Unfortunately, there are many more lies and baseless accusations I have yet to address. Those will now be dealt with in the coming months." Katie later responded through her spokesperson, insisting she was "at peace" and had handed the matter to her lawyers. She also denied wanting a tit-for-tat exchange, saying she would "no longer be gaslit and bullied as she once was". In his first upload since the feud erupted, Peter has shared a family snap with his wife Emily and the three children they have together. He posted the photo of his family walking hand in hand along the beach with their backs to the camera on his Instagram story, captioning it "Cyprus". Peter and Katie first met on I'm A Celebrity in 2004 and quickly became one of the UK's most famous couples. They got married just one year later, but after four years together, their marriage broke down. Katie has repeatedly accused Peter and his management team of freezing her out of decisions about Princess' career. The 18-year-old has just launched her first reality series, in which she is seen spending time with her father, while her mother is barely featured. Katie has said she feels sidelined from big milestones in her daughter's life, claiming she was banned from Princess' 18th birthday party and excluded from filming. On her podcast Katie admitted she was "very, very upset" about the situation, alleging that Peter's team consider her "trash" and didn't want her involved in the show. She also voiced her disappointment at missing Princess' big day, saying: "Princess was like 'I'm having a party'. And I wasn't invited because it was for 'filming'."

Carly went on to say she and David "took several measures" in terms of contraception to ensure they stayed "at an even dozen kiddos". And while "it worked for almost three years", it was when her hormones went "whacky" around two years ago that she made the decision to try and balance them naturally. "Well, it never dawned on me that balancing my hormones not only effected how I felt, but also my fertility!" she added.

Molly-Mae raves about her current go-to Adidas trainers that are ‘so comfy'
Molly-Mae swears by her current favourite Adidas trainers, calling them 'so comfy', and fans are rushing to get their hands on a pair before they sell out Molly-Mae has firmly established herself as a modern style icon, not only through her time as Creative Director at PrettyLittleThing but also with the recent launch of her own fashion label, Maebe. So it's no wonder that whenever she shares an outfit on Instagram, it quickly sells out, a phenomenon now dubbed the ' Molly-Mae effect'. She recently shared with her followers her current go-to pair of trainers, and luckily for us, they're still in stock in all sizes (although we're sure this won't last for much longer). The trainers Molly has raved about being "so comfy" are the adidas Originals Gazelle Lo Pro trainers in black and white, priced at £90. Adidas trainers have been trending over the past few years, mostly the popular Gazelles, Sambas, and Spezials. And we love that this new style of Gazelle takes on an A/W 2025 update with the flatter gumsole. This coming season is really all about flat, sporty-looking, retro trainers, and with the recent Oasis revival, it's no surprise to see that adidas are still leading the trends. Molly mentioned she struggled with finding a pair of black trainers that slot into her wardrobe, but has luckily found a winning pair with the Gazelle Lo Pro trainers. Crafted with a mix of synthetic leather and suede, these trainers feature the signature T-toe support and an ultra-low sole with a Gum 3 rubber tread for a sturdy grip. Finished with the iconic 3-Stripes, they're a timeless style that have been reimagined a modern look. What we love about Molly's style is how she mixes in more affordable, high street buys in with designer, and her most recent sunglasses caught our attention. The sunglasses, named the Outta Love sunglasses, hail from the cool-girl French eyewear brand Le Specs. Priced at £55, they are pretty wallet-friendly compared to Molly's previously worn £300 to £400 YSL and Gucci specs. Another favourite sunglass brand of Molly-Mae's is Vehla, who also have a similar alternative to the sold-out Saint Laurent pair. The Dixie Sunglasses are on the pricier side at £170, but are a go-to brand for so many celebrities thanks to their quality, fit and unique styles.
