BREAKING: Taylor Swift reveals huge star who will appear on new album The Life of a Showgirl
The much anticipated New Neights podcast episode featuring Taylor Swift has now been released and she drops some major news. Sabrina Carpenter will appear on her new album. It had been announced on Tuesday that Taylor, 35, would be a guest on the podcast, which is hosted by her partner Travis Kelce, 35, and his brother Jason Kelce, 37. A preview released on social media at the time had shown the singer-songwriter teasing her new album The Life of a Showgirl. The promotional clip showed Taylor telling Jason, who, like his brother, is known for playing in the NFL, whilst recording the podcast: "So I wanted to show you something." He responded by asking her: "Okay, what do we go?" Taylor held up a briefcase that had her initials on the front, before pulling out a vinyl sleeve that had been blurred. Confirming the name of her next album, she shared in the clip: "This is my brand new album, the Life of a Showgirl." She had announced the Life of a Showgirl, which is her twelfth original album, on August 12 and it's said that the podcast teaser was shared on Instagram at 12.12am. The album cover wasn't revealed though, with an orange padlock on a green backdrop used to temporarily conceal the artwork on her social media account and website following the news. It comes just months on from Taylor sharing with fans in May that she now owns "all of the music" that she's ever made. That announcement came following years of her releasing re-recorded versions of albums from earlier in her career following a dispute over her back catalogue. She said in a statement earlier this year: "The memories. The magic. The madness. Every single era. My entire life's work." Taylor also said at the time: "To say this is my greatest dream come true is actually being pretty reserved about it." Not including the four re-recorded albums she's released, the Life of a Showgirl will be Taylor's twelfth studio album to date. It follows the Tortured Poets Department, released by the Grammy Award winner in April last year. That album topped the charts upon its release and was said to have broken records. It included, according to the Official Charts Company, her becoming the first artist to have 12 number one albums in the UK the 21st century.

Jason Kelce calls Travis Kelce most 'unique' tight end ever
Travis Kelce is a lot of things: a future Hall of Fame tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, a holder of 12 NFL records, a "New Neights" podcast co-host and, of course, Taylor Swift's boyfriend. In a recent GQ profile of Kelce, his brother, Jason Kelce, added one more identifier to the list. "There will be arguments about him versus Gronk, versus Tony Gonzalez, but I don't think anybody has ever been as unique of a player in that spot," Jason said. To Jason's point, Travis is truly 1-of-1 in several statistical categories. In the Chiefs' two most recent playoff runs, the tight end broke three of legendary wide receiver Jerry Rice's NFL postseason records. He now stands alone as the NFL record-holder for career postseason receptions (172), career postseason 100-yard games (9) and career Super Bowl receptions (35). TRAVIS KELCE: Chiefs TE gushes over Taylor Swift in GQ story: 'We're just two people that are in love' Jason and former Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith talked more about Travis' intelligence and uniqueness as a person and player throughout the article. The elder Kelce brother spoke about a "Travis Moment" from their childhood, when he put together a full Erector set without reading the instructions while Jason and their father, Ed, were still reading them. Smith brought up examples of Travis' ball knowledge from early in the tight end's career, mentioning how he would add his own improvisational tweaks to routes to get open. "Every single pass play, wherever I was going, whatever the concept intended for me to throw, whatever defensive look I was getting, it didn't matter: Travis was open," Smith told GQ. "He was supposed to turn out, but on this one he flipped in, and he was open. He always put his little twist on it, and it worked." Smith pointed to one specific example of Kelce changing a route from a fake shallow cross with a cut back to a real shallow cross with a hesitation step before carrying on when he saw his defender didn't buy the fake. "This is an NFL game!" Smith said. "We had never talked about this! This was not remotely a possibility for him when we installed this play! It turned into a 35-yard gain. This is the brilliance of Kelce."
