The life of a showgirl: The meaning and inspiration explained
While announcing that her 12th album would arrive on October 3, 2025, Taylor said that she had selected only 12 songs for The life of a showgirl To keep “the bar really high” and make the “Right” record with a holistic theme (so no, there won’t be more songs coming).
The inspiration was to go “behind the curtain” of the ERAS tour.
“This album was about what was going on behind the scenes in my inner life during this tour,” Taylor said, “which was so exuberant and electric and vibrant.”
She continued: “It just comes from the most infectiously joyful, wild, dramatic place in my life, so the effermescence has been on this record.”
On her days off from touring, Taylor worked with HitMakers Max Martin And Coil in Sweden to create these “infectious anthems”, including the titular track with the Eras Tour opener Sabrina Carpenter.
In addition to “The Life of a Showgirl”, the tracks will be “Ophelia’s Fate,” “Elizabeth Taylor,” “Opalite,” “Father Figure,” “Eldest Daughter,” “Ruins Friendship,” “Actually Romantic,” “wi$h li$t,” “Wood,” “Cancelled!” and “Honey.”
