Every major update from Taylor Swift's 'New Heights' podcast appearance
Part of the rollout for Tuesday's announcement of The Life of a Showgirl involved the popular, typically football-focused podcast hosted by Travis Kelce - Swift's boyfriend and Kansas City Chiefs tight end - and his brother, Jason Kelce, the former Philadelphia Eagles centre.
Her episode, which ran just over two hours on audio streaming and an hour and 45 minutes via YouTube, was particularly revealing.
Here's everything you need to know about Swift's episode.
1. Swift partially announced her new album The Life of a Showgirl on the podcast, originally shared Tuesday in a preview clip. Swift told the Kelce brothers she wanted to show them something, revealing a mint-green briefcase that featured her initials in orange. Jason Kelce asked what's in it, prompting her to pull out a vinyl record. "This is my brand new album, The Life of a Showgirl," she said.
2. In the full episode, Swift revealed she worked on the album in Europe while she was on the Eras Tour - flying between dates to record, truly embodying the album's title, The Life of a Showgirl. Then she read the track list. The entire album was completed in Sweden with producers Max Martin and Shellback.
4. "Bangers", is how she describes the album. She also said, "There aren't other ones coming", referring to a surprising double album like in the case of 2024's The Tortured Poets Department. The release is 12 tracks - that's it. And it arrives Oct. 3. "I care about this record more than I can even overstate," she said. "It's a lot more upbeat," Travis Kelce said, describing it as a "180 from Tortured Poets". Swift agreed, adding, "Life is more upbeat".
5. The album's theme? "Everything that was going on behind the curtain," she said.
6. The album's goal? Infectious melodies and vivid lyrics, she explained.
7. The album's cover? Themed after "the end of my day", she said. "My day ends with me in a bathtub."
8. She also shared personal information on New Heights, arguably in a way she hasn't in years. For example: Her mum "got a new knee", she said. And her dad had quintuple bypass surgery this summer. He had "five blockages in his heart" discovered through a stress test. "This was the summer of my parental upgrades," she said.
9. She spent considerable time in Florida with Travis Kelce. She also said "our jobs are very similar", it is "to entertain people for three hours in NFL stadiums".
10. Jason Kelce asked his brother and Swift how they handle online chatter about their relationship. "We don't, really. I don't see a lot of things," she said. "My name can be in the actual headline, and it's none of my business."
11. She shared her favourite segments from New Heights, her self-described "favourite podcast". That is "new news". She credited the podcast as getting her "a boyfriend", and discussed how the pair started dating via friendship bracelet exchange. "If this guy isn't crazy," she joked, he's the kind of guy she's "been writing songs about".
12. Swift also discussed the Eras Tour, which Travis Kelce described as a catalyst for his interest in Swift. She mentioned exiting through an orange door at the last date of the tour, a "subliminal hint that I may be leaving the Eras Tour era", she said. It was an Easter egg for The Life of a Showgirl.
13. Swift is known for teasing her fans with Easter eggs. Her favourite use? Getting an honorary degree from NYU in 2022 and littering her speech with references to her then yet-to-be-announced Midnights album. "Fans were like, 'the whole speech was an easter egg!'," she said.
14. Swift listed her hobbies, which still include baking. Her current obsession? Making sourdough bread, specifically blueberry lemon, cinnamon swirl and Funfetti variations. She offered a few bread-related puns referencing her discography: "Are you bread-y for it?" "It's a loaf story, baby just say yeast", and "Loafing him was bread", among them.
15. Swift discussed regaining control over her entire body of work. In May, it was announced that the popstar purchased her catalogue of recordings - originally released through Big Machine Records - from their most recent owner, the private equity firm Shamrock Capital. She did not disclose the amount.
16. Swift said she loves all the rerecorded albums, but Red (Taylor's Version) is particularly special - for the fan-favourite All Too Well vault track, which spans ten minutes.
Swift's episode of the New Heights podcast premiered at 7 p.m. US Eastern time. It is available to stream in full on YouTube.
Fans who prefer to listen to the show instead can do so via most podcast-streaming platforms: Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, Audible, Spotify and Wondery, which produces the show.
The audio recording of the podcast is about 20 minutes longer in duration than YouTube and includes a rapid-fire question section, where the Kelce brothers and Swift discuss cats, pop tarts, Bad Bunny in Happy Gilmore 2, hiding in a cleaning cart at the Eras Tour and more.
Little was known about Swift's episode ahead of its airing.
On Tuesday and Wednesday, the podcast shared clips teasing the forthcoming episode.
"As we all know, you know, you guys have a lot of male sports fans that listen to your podcast," Swift joked in one cut.
Chiefs coach Andy Reid was supportive, though, saying Wednesday that he was happy for the pair.
"Both of them like each other, and what a plus that is. They care about each other, and I think that's the most important thing," he said.
"The older you get, you want these guys to have somebody they can settle down with and that whole deal. And so I think it's a neat deal for them - both of them."
Taylor Swift's latest era is almost upon us. The superstar isn't just releasing her 12th album in October - she also appeared on the New Heights podcast on Wednesday for the first time to discuss it at length.

'I almost joined a cult in Mexico City...' Euphoria star Colman Domingo reveals
Colman Domingo almost accidentally joined a cult based in Mexico City. The Four Seasons star found himself talking to a group of what he thought were "nice people" when he was in Mexico, but he ultimately realised that they were trying to convert him to their belief system. Colman came to his senses after sensing there was something very odd about the conversation. Appearing on Mythical Kitchen's Last Meals, host Josh Scherer jokingly said to Colman "You haven't joined a cult yet now that you moved to Malibu?" To which the 55-year-old actor answered: "I almost joined a cult in Mexico City, but that's another story. "I accidentally almost joined the call in Mexico City a couple months ago. It was just a group of nice people, and then I was like, 'Wait a minute, this is weird.' I was like, 'What's up with you guys?'" After the encounter, Euphoria star Colman then did some more research on the group and confirmed his gut feeling that he was indeed targeted by a cult. The Oscar nominee added: "There's always something a little off, and you just have to listen. "This is my first encounter. But as I did research and found out more about them, I'm like, 'Oh, that's a cult." YouTube celebrity Scherer - who is best known as the host of Mythical Kitchen on the video sharing platform - confessed to Colman that he also found himself being targeted by a cult whilst he was out skateboarding. Scherer, 33, said: "I was about to talk to a cult the other day, and then they tried to get me to join. "I said no, and they were just like, 'No, I think you really should.' And then I was like, 'Don't mess with cults, man. Don't be the person that talks to too many people.' "And so, I skateboarded away."

YG Entertainment confirms BLACKPINK's new album will arrive in November, 'at the latest'
BLACKPINK's label has confirmed the girl group is aiming to drop a new album by November. YG Entertainment recently responded to a report from My Daily Korea that claimed the mini-album will have a November release date by promising to reveal all at a later date. And now the agency's founder Yang Hyun Suk has vowed the team will "do our best" to get the record out "by November, at the latest". In an update on YG's YouTube channel, he said: 'A lot of fans are curious about BLACKPINK's album. I know that the BLACKPINK members and producers in charge of them are working very hard preparing the album. I'm hoping for BLACKPINK's album to be out by November, at the latest. That's what I'm pushing for – we'll do our best to get BLACKPINK's album out soon." In July, the K-pop group released the Diplo-produced single JUMP. It marked their first music since JENNIE, ROSÉ, LISA and JISOO embarked on successful solo careers. Their last EP was 2019's Kill This Love, with their album Born Pink following in 2022. BLACKPINK - comprising ROSÉ, JENNIE, JISOO and LISA - are currently on their Deadline World Tour, which saw the girls play two nights at London's Wembley Stadium on August 15 and 16. Meanwhile, ROSÉ was left "beyond shocked" and "speechless" over her eight MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) nominations. The star is in contention for Video of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Collaboration, Best Pop, Best Direction, Best Art Direction and Best Visual Effects for mega-hit APT. featuring Bruno Mars, as well as Best K-pop for Toxic Til the End from her solo LP Rosie. The elated star reacted on her Instagram Stories last week: "So I've just heard that I've received eight VMA nominations. "I am beyond shocked and I just don't know what to say. I'm absolutely speechless! This is a crazy day! Whoa! It's really, really wild! What's happening?!" In the Best K-pop category, the Messy singer will fend off competition from her BLACKPINK bandmates, with JENNIE's like JENNIE, JISOO's earthquake and LISA's Doja Cat and RAYE collaboration Born Again receiving nods. Lady Gaga leads the nominations, having scored an impressive 12 nods. The winners will be unveiled on Sunday, September 7, at the UBS Arena in New York City.

'It's fantastic': Zoe Kravitz delivers verdict on Taylor Swift's The Life of a Showgirl
Zoe Kravitz has heard "a few bits" from Taylor Swift's upcoming new album. The Caught Stealing actress has praised The Life of a Showgirl - which the Bad Blood singer announced last week will be released in October - and reassured fans they will be impressed by every track on the record. Asked if she had heard Taylor's highly-anticipated album, Zoe told Extra: "I've heard bits of it. It's fantaastic, of course. No skips." The interviewer replied: 'No skips? That's rare." But Zoe said: 'For her, it's not.' The 36-year-old actress revealed last week that she and her mom Lisa Bonet stayed in Taylor's house earlier this year amid the Los Angeles wildfires - and ended up destroying her pal's bathroom. Lisa's beloved pet snake Orpheus slithered its way into a tiny hole in the bathroom and they were unable to retrieve her without causing major damage. Appearing on Late Night with Seth Meyers, Zoe said: "I'm going around cleaning up. I'm downstairs and she's upstairs and my phone rings and it was my mom. I'm like, 'That's weird, we're in the same house.' "She goes 'Hi' and I'm like, 'Your voice is super high'. And she goes, 'I'm in a bit of a pickle. Can you come upstairs?' "I go upstairs, the bathroom door is closed, so I open [it] and she's crouched in the corner in this weird way. She says, 'So I was washing my face and I had Orpheus, and I just put her down for a second, closed the door, and she found this little hole in the corner.' "There was a little hole, that you wouldn't even know was there, right in the corner of the bathroom. The hole is next to a banquette that is built into the wall," "My mom is holding the snake's tail. Snake's tail, they're all muscle and very, very strong. I'm like 'Maybe this hole goes into the drawers [underneath']. I get down on the ground, take the drawers out, no." Zoe began "freaking out" as the snake got further and further into the hole and called for help from the house manager, who began "tearing apart" the banquette. She continued: "We're ripping up the tile. We're scratching the walls. We destroyed her bathroom. "I was like, 'Either we destroy her bathroom or I have to tell her that there's a snake somewhere in her house,'" "I said to her house manager, 'Obviously, I'm gonna pay for everything to be fixed. Please just don't say anything until it's fixed.'" But when the Big Little Lies star called her pal, the Look What You Made Me Do hitmaker was already well aware of what had happened. She said: "I remember calling her saying, 'Hey, I wanted to talk to you about something.' And she was like, 'Is it the fact that you almost lost a snake in my house and destroyed my bathroom?' "
