Taylor Swift confirmed that TS12 is coming out soon! With the global pop icon’s 12th album in our midst, Swifties are clamoring to find out its release date, tracklist and whether or not Taylor will go back on tour. As we get updates from the mastermind herself, Hollywood Life has gathered everything we know so far about Taylor’s new album below.
What Is Taylor Swift’s New Album Title?
Taylor’s 12th album is titled The Life of a Showgirl. She announced the name during a teaser from her boyfriend Travis Kelce and his brother Jason Kelce‘s “New Heights” podcast at midnight on August 12, 2025.
When Does TS12 The Life of a Showgirl Come Out? Release Date
Taylor’s website states that a release date has yet to be announced, but it might point to a timeframe when fans can expect it. The vinyls for TS12 will be shipped before October 13, 2025, and Taylor’s website indicates, “This is not the release date [of The Life of a Showgirl]. Official release date to be announced.”
There’s a chance that Taylor could confirm when her new album is coming out when the full “New Heights” podcast episode airs on August 13. As fans know, 13 is Taylor’s favorite number, so there’s no coincidence there!
Taylor’s about to do a f*cking podcast!

How to Watch the ‘New Heights’ Podcast
Jason and Kelce drop new episodes of their “New Heights” podcast on Wednesdays via YouTube. The August 13, 2025, episode will be released at 7 p.m. ET, 4 p.m. PT, the teaser indicates.
In another clip from the upcoming podcast episode, Taylor is seen holding up a briefcase with her initials, T.S., on it, as Jason says, “What do we got? We got a briefcase? Mint green, with T.S. on it. What’s in it?” Taylor then replies, “This is my brand new album, The Life of a Showgirl,” as Jason cheers in excitement.
Is Taylor Swift Engaged to Travis Kelce?
No, Taylor is not currently engaged to Travis. Neither of them has confirmed or denied the rumors, but they’ve been together since the summer of 2023. So, it wouldn’t be a surprise if the couple decide to move forward together.
Is Taylor Swift Going Back on Tour for Life of a Showgirl?
Taylor has not mentioned a tour for The Life of a Showgirl, but Swifties have faith that she’ll plan one. Besides, her last one, The Eras Tour, was a massive hit around the world, so touring for her next album is likely in the cards.
Previously, a source informed Us Weekly that Taylor told her team to “give her one year” to make a decision about touring because “a lot of it hinges on what happens over the next year with Travis.”
“She had such a great experience on Eras. She really wants to do it again,” the insider told the outlet in December 2024. “She loves being with all her fans; it inspires her. … She’s told her team to give her one year to see how things go in her personal life.”
