Taylor Swift’s Showgirl Is Actually a Rom-Com |
After almost a dozen albums spent examining the idea of “happily ever after,” Taylor Swift arrives at her answer on The Life of a Showgirl, a 12-track snapshot of her love story with now fiancé Travis Kelce. Given the album’s prerelease visuals, some anticipated more of a straightforward showgirl narrative—a gritty but glamorous peek behind the curtain of the blockbuster Eras tour. But, instead of snakes and barbed wire, Showgirl uses rhinestones and feathers to lure listeners into what Savannah Walsh describes as a lush, fizzy romantic comedy that coincides with one of the most pivotal professional chapters of Swift’s life.
Elsewhere in HWD, Sarah Snook gives Savannah Walsh an exclusive first look at her new series, All Her Fault; Victoria Beckham celebrates her eponymous Netflix documentary with her fellow Spice Girls; Zelda Williams does not want to see your AI-generated videos of her late father, Robin; and Anjelica Huston reveals herself to be an excellent writer in her two autobiographies. |
