THE RUNDOWN
- Taylor Swift is appearing on Travis and Jason Kelce’s podcast, New Heights, to discuss her new album, The Life of a Showgirl.
- The episode is premiering at a later time, August 13 at 7 P.M. ET.
- This is Swift’s first time joining the Kelce brothers on their program and the most intimate look she has given of her relationship with them.
True to form, Taylor Swift has once again sent the world into a fevered frenzy with the surprise announcement of her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl.
Swift’s marketing machine kicked into high gear on Monday night when her website transformed into a glittering orange spectacle, complete with a countdown timer ticking toward 12:12 A.M. on August 12. The numerical symbolism wasn’t lost on devoted Swifties, who’ve learned to decode every easter egg the artist drops. When the countdown hit zero, Swift’s website predictably crashed under the weight of millions of eager fans before re-booting with sparse details about the mysterious new project.
It was the star’s appearance on her partner Travis Kelce’s podcast, however, that delivered the money shot. In a teaser clip, Swift dramatically opens a briefcase to reveal a blurred vinyl while declaring, “This is my brand new album, The Life of a Showgirl.”
The full episode is coming out very soon—and is bound to contain much more information about the project.
