Taylor Swift reminisces about The Eras Tour and announces new album \
Taylor Swift made headlines this week for making an appearance on her boyfriend, Travis Kelce's, podcast that he co-hosts with his brother Jason Kelce. On their show, "New Heights," Swift announced a new album coming on Oct. 3 called "The Life of a Show Girl" and spoke candidly about her career, The Eras Tour, reclaiming her masters and the early stages of her and Travis' relationship. Here's what to know. While Swift misses The Eras Tour, she admits it was a very physically taxing tour. "I do miss it, but it was perfect for what it was. Do you know what I mean? It was a lot of physical therapy and it was a lot of being in a state of perpetual physical discomfort, kind of like when you're in season," she said to Travis and Jason. Swift went on a world tour from 2023-2024 where she went to 52 cities and 21 countries, including a three night tour stop at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Indianapolis was the last U.S. stop on her world tour. "I miss it because I miss the fans and I miss that connection, but at the same time it was the most formative time of my life," Swift said. "I learned so much about how far I can push myself and if I set a goal... It's really just prioritizing fan's experience before anything else." Taylor Swift: Takeaways from final U.S. Eras Tour show in Indianapolis Swift also announced a brand new album titled "The Life of a Showgirl," which she wrote while on the road for The Eras Tour, she shared on the podcast. "This album is about what was going on behind the scenes in my inner life during this tour, which was so exuberant and electric and vibrant," Swift said. Unlike her previous album, "The Tortured Poets Department," that was initially 16 tracks that was a surprise double album with 15 additional songs, Swift says "The Life of a Showgirl" will be 12 tracks total, with no surprise songs. The album is set to release on Friday, Oct. 3, 2025. 'Life of a Showgirl': Did Taylor Swift announce a new album? When's the release date? What we know Swift has had a long history of trying to obtain the master recordings of her first six albums in her career and she announced earlier this year that her dream of owning all her life's work finally came true in May. On "New Heights," she shared the story of how it finally happened. After The Eras Tour her team decided it might be worth approaching the owners of her masters, Shamrock Capital, again to see if they would be willing to sell. "Rather than send lawyers or management like in a big crew, I sent my mom and my brother, who I work with, to L.A. and they sat down with Shamrock Capital and they told them what this meant for me..." Swift's mom and brother left the meeting saying that they weren't sure what they would decide to do. Swift later got the call from her mom saying Shamrock Capital agreed to sell to her, which resulted in tears of joy for Swift.

Taylor Swift announces 12th album for ‘pre pre-order'
US popstar Taylor Swift announced her 12th album, titled 'The Life of a Showgirl,' for 'pre pre-order' just after midnight Tuesday in posts on her website. Her online shop displayed blurred images of a record, CD and cassette tape overlaid with a glittery orange lock, explaining the album artwork would be 'revealed at a later date.' A disclaimer also notes that the release date has not yet been announced, and the album will ship before October 13. 'So I wanted to show you something,' the singer says in a video clip posted to her Instagram as she holds up a vinyl album, its cover completely blurred. 'This is my brand new album 'The Life of a Show Girl',' she says in the clip from the 'New Heights' podcast, hosted by her boyfriend, American football player Travis Kelce, and his brother, exNFL player Jason Kelce. 'TS12!' Travis Kelce exclaims in the video. 'The Life of a Showgirl' is the follow-up to Swift's last studio album, ' The Tortured Poets Department,' which was released last year and sold 1.4 million copies the first day. Since 2021, she has been making good on her vow to re-record her first six studio records in a bid to own the rights to them. In May, the 14 - time Grammy Award winner, who was locked in a feud with record executives since 2019 over the ownership of her music, said she had bought back the rights to her entire back catalog for an undisclosed sum. The 35-year-old songwriting sensation shattered records with her nearly two-year-long Eras tour that ended last year. It raked in $2 billion over 149 shows around the world, making it the most lucrative tour in music history.
