Making every moment count. It&#x27;s a journey through the chaotic world of show business. I loved working with @rpstam, @ethantobman and @nopenother to dream up these visuals. A huge thank you to this massive cast who kept it 💯 and also kept the secret of this video even existing. It’s out on YouTube NOW!&quot; she remarked.The Life of a Showgirl is Taylor&#x27;s 12th studio album and was released on Friday, October 3.In an interview on the New Heights podcast in August, the global pop star relayed that the album tells the story of her life offstage.&quot;This album is about what was going on behind the scenes in my inner life during [the Eras] tour, which was so exuberant and electric and vibrant,&quot; she said. &quot;It just comes from the most infectiously joyful, wild, dramatic place I was in in my life, and so that effervescence has come through on this record.&quot;The singer shared that she created the album alongside music producers Max Martin and Shellback whom she considers her mentors.&quot;We&#x27;ve never actually made an album before where it&#x27;s just the three of us. There&#x27;s no other collaborators. It&#x27;s just the three of us making a focused album were it felt like catching lightning in a bottle,&quot; she said. &quot;These guys, they are just geniuses in different avenues, in different ways.&quot;
