"The Life of a Showgirl" will be Swift's 12th studio album. It follows Swift's 11th studio album, "The Tortured Poets Department," which was released on April 19, 2024. That album came with an extra surprise for fans when Swift dropped an additional 15 songs at 2 a.m. that same day.

When Taylor Swift announced her 11th album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” in February 2024, the album dropped two months later. This leaves us to speculate that the new album will follow the same timeline, especially with the preorder date already set.

The singer teased her 12th album on the "New Heights" podcast with Jason and Travis Kelce. See how fans are reacting.
