Taylor told the Kelce brothers that she wrote the album during the European leg of her Eras Tour.
“Working on this, I was physically exhausted at this point in the tour, but I was so mentally stimulated and so excited to be creating,” she said.
“Literally living the life of a showgirl,” her boyfriend added.

The NFL star said the new album is completely different from his girlfriend’s last album The Tortured Poets Department.
He called The Life of a Showgirl more “upbeat” and said people would dance to it.
“Life is more upbeat,” she smiled at him and said.
She’s “the best songwriter in the world,” the Kansas City Chiefs tight end said elsewhere on the show.
“Says my boyfriend,” she quipped.

The artwork, featuring Taylor submerged in water, represents what the end of her nights would look like on tour.
“My day ends with me in a bathtub, not usually in a bedazzled dress,” the Grammy winner said. “I wanted to glamorize all the different aspects of how that tour felt.”
