Taylor Swift‘s album announcements continue to captivate fans and music enthusiasts alike.

During her highly anticipated debut appearance on the New Heights podcast, hosted by her boyfriend Travis Kelce and his brother Jason Kelce, on August 13, the renowned Grammy award winner disclosed the exciting news about her upcoming 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl.

In a thrilling Instagram clip shared at precisely 12:12 a.m. ET on August 12, Taylor exclaimed, “So I wanted to show you something.” She then unveiled a vinyl record from a chic mint green briefcase, although the cover art was intentionally obscured. Her official website noted that the full artwork will be revealed at a later date, heightening anticipation among her dedicated fanbase.

Fans are eager to know when they can expect to hear her new music. According to her website, the pre-order products are set to ship before October 13, but it’s important to note that this is not the official release date, which will be announced separately.

It has been over a year since Taylor Swift released her previous album, The Tortured Poets Department, which included tracks reflecting her relationship with Travis, such as “The Alchemy” and “So High School.” This new album announcement on the Kelce brothers’ podcast adds a personal touch and signifies the depth of Taylor and Travis’ relationship.

Their love story took a charming turn when the Kansas City Chiefs star humorously expressed his disappointment on New Heights after attending one of Taylor’s Eras Tour concerts in July 2023. “I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,” Travis shared with Jason. “So I was a little butt-hurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her.”
