Taylor Swift is officially letting fans in on her next big era. The 35-year-old singer has announced that her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, will arrive on October 3 — and she’s giving us plenty to obsess over in the meantime.
The main edition of the album comes in the “sweat and vanilla perfume portofino orange glitter” version — because only Taylor could make an album sound like a mood board.
For fans who like to collect, she’s also offering four different limited-release deluxe CDs available for just 72 hours (or until they sell out). Each comes with its own title: “sweat and vanilla perfume,” “it’s frightening,” “it’s rapturous,” and “it’s beautiful.”
Taylor worked with familiar hit-making collaborators Max Martin and Shellback on the project. The pair previously helped shape her early pop era with Red, 1989, and Reputation, so fans can expect a polished, bold sound.
Alongside the announcement, Taylor revealed the full tracklist — and yes, there’s a much-anticipated collaboration.
Tracklist:
1.The Fate of Ophelia
2.Elizabeth Taylor
3.Opolite
4.Father Figure
5.Eldest Daughter
6.Ruin The Friendship
7.Actually Romantic
8.Wish List (Wi$h Li$t)
9.Wood
10.CANCELLED!
11.Honey
12.The Life of a Showgirl (feat. Sabrina Carpenter)
Swifties have already started picking apart the song titles for clues. Is “Elizabeth Taylor” about Hollywood glamour? Is “CANCELLED!” a nod to internet culture? Only time will tell — but one thing’s for sure: October 3 is now officially a holiday for Taylor fans.
