Taylor Swift has unveiled her new album, The Life of a Showgirl, and fans are ecstatic. The singer made the announcement on August 12th, and pre-orders are currently available on her official website. This is Taylor Swift's first album since her hugely successful Eras tour. Taylor Swift changed her social media profile images shortly after the announcement of the new album. On X, Swift revised both the profile picture and banner to an orange lock against a green backdrop. The modification was also made to her Instagram and Threads profiles.
Notably, the new orange lock in glitter is not the record artwork, and her website says the product artwork will be revealed at a later date.
Social media was buzzing with anticipation ahead of the album's launch, with many fans guessing that Sabrina Carpenter, who's made a name for herself with singles like Espresso, might be collaborating with Swift on the upcoming album. This all started when Carpenter's website indicated August 12.
