Erin Andrews can’t calm down about Taylor Swift‘s The Life of a Showgirl.

Specifically, the daring photo session undertaken by the singer for the album artwork involved Taylor posing for photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott in revealing showgirl costumes. These outfits ranged from a sparkling bra top to a glistening red bodysuit with fishnets.

In the photo shoot for her album art, singer Taylor was captured by photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott in a series of skimpy showgirl attire-including a bedazzled top and a shimmering red bodysuit paired with fishnets.

On the August 21st episode of their podcast “Calm Down,” Erin excitedly exclaimed to Charissa Thompson, “Wow, what a great start to the day! We sent her a text saying, ‘Good morning!’ in a playful and enthusiastic manner.

The sportscaster continued, “She looked great.”

Erin’s co-host Charissa agreed, raving that Taylor, 35, was “looking like a million bucks.”

“Parentheses ‘heads to gym,'” she quipped of herself. “Incredible.”

However, Erin (aged 47) and Charissa (aged 43) offered heartfelt compliments to Travis Kelce as well. They appreciated him for being Taylor’s cheerleader when she revealed her album cover on his “New Heights” podcast last week.

Charissa observed that while she was naming each song title, Travis enthusiastically interjected with repeated exclamations of “This is a hit, another hit, yet another hit!

She added, “Trav, you’re adorable.”

Why did Taylor adopt the showgirl style during her Eras Tour, resulting in the creation of “The Life of a Showgirl“? This shift can be attributed to the tour’s success and the creative inspiration it provided.

During the August 13th episode of New Heights, Taylor shared that the album was a reflection of the happenings in her personal life amidst the bustling backstage scenes during this tour. She described these events as intense, full of energy, and colorful.

She explained that the music originated from a deeply joyful, uncontainable, and theatrical period in her life. This exuberance is clearly audible on the album.

Indeed, Taylor stated that the album cover, depicting her immersed in a bathtub adorned with glittery lingerie, symbolizes the emotions she experienced upon returning to her hotel for relaxation following a performance.

As an over-the-moon fan, I can’t help but share my thoughts: “Late into the night, around 4 o’clock, you’ll find me tossing and turning, still high from this experience. The incredible obstacle course that was your performance seemed to have 50 million hoops, yet you effortlessly navigated through them all. And not just once, but twice! But tonight, you outdid yourself. Two in a row, simply astonishing!

In the tale of their connection, Travis Kelce managed to catch Taylor Swift’s attention when he expressed his struggle in giving her a friendship bracelet with his phone number during an appearance on the “New Heights” podcast, which was recorded at the Eras Tour stop at Arrowhead Stadium in July 2023.

Instead, as per Taylor’s account, Travis never initiated contact with her team for arranging a potential get-together from the start.

In the August 2025 episode of New Heights, she playfully commented, “Since he’s acquainted with the elevator woman, he assumed he could easily discuss getting to my dressing room.” Essentially, he was quite confident, saying something along the lines of, “I have a connection. I can sort this out.

As for the friendship bracelet, Taylor said she’s still “never seen the original.”

Travis explained clearly when he decided he wanted to court Taylor. He shared this on his podcast by saying, “If I hadn’t attended that concert, been spellbound, and left yearning to meet you, I wouldn’t be here now, expressing how disappointed I felt to everyone.

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I find myself captivated by Taylor’s charisma, almost as if being drawn into a whirlwind of energy. The way he can ignite an entire stadium with his passion is truly mesmerizing! In a private setting, however, it feels like we’ve known each other for years – a testament to the powerful connection he creates with people.

It was a sentiment shared by Taylor, who responded, “I felt the same exact way about you.”

“Whatever Andy Reid says, we’re gonna stand by,” Taylor responded. “That’s what happened.”

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I’ve always cherished the unique connections that bring people together. In my personal experience, I’ve had the privilege of knowing Coach of the esteemed Kansas City Chiefs, through a long-standing friendship with my father, Scott Swift. This special bond has led to Andy, who is an avid music lover, attending my concerts for many years now.

Taylor mentioned that her father, being extremely sociable, has always been one of those individuals born with an exceptional knack for socializing. She further added that her interactions with Andy have consistently left her with a very optimistic feeling.

As a devoted admirer, let me share this: “To be honest, I wasn’t fully aware of the games he was playing, but there was no mistaking – that was my dad’s pal, Andy Reid. Now, I realize he’s not just any coach; he’s an icon, a living legend in the annals of sports history.

Eventually, Andy endorsed Travis, and many of Taylor’s loved ones spoke positively about him following his attempt to pursue opportunities at New Heights.

Taylor remembered her cousins exclaiming with enthusiasm, “He’s incredible, over and over again!” What was unusual was the hushed conversations about you that filled my ears. Normally, people don’t express such strong support for someone as readily as they did for you.

During their initial outing, the Grammy winner, it seems, struggled slightly when posing a football query to the tight end of the Kansas City Chiefs.

According to Taylor, he honestly inquired about his friend’s experience during the Super Bowl match between the Chiefs and the Eagles. As he did so, he noticed his sibling, who was just a few feet away on the field.

Two years after the fact, Taylor came to understand that her query had been rather “unreasonable” because the two brothers seldom played simultaneously on account of their distinct roles in the game. Nevertheless, she shared that Travis took his time to elucidate the rules, which ultimately sparked Taylor’s enthusiasm for this particular sport.

She relayed, “He said something along the lines of, ‘In reality, both me and my brother are attacking positions, but I rarely share the field with them since I’m only in when the defense is out,’ which left me puzzled because I assumed everyone was present simultaneously.

In her announcement on Oct. 3, 2025, Taylor revealed that she has carefully chosen only 12 tracks for her 12th album titled “The Life of a Showgirl“. This selection is made to ensure the quality remains exceptional and the record feels complete, with a unified theme. Therefore, it’s unlikely any additional songs will be added.

The inspiration was about going “behind the curtain” of the Eras Tour.

Taylor mentioned that the album reflects the private events occurring within his personal life during the tour. He described these times as intense, lively, and full of energy.

The statement can be rephrased as follows: “She explained that the music on this record originated from a very lively and exhilarating time in her life, which is why it’s filled with such infectious joy and drama.

During her free time from touring, Taylor collaborated with hitmakers Max Martin and Shellback in Sweden to develop these catchy tunes, which include the title track featuring Sabrina Carpenter, who opens the Eras Tour.

Beyond my journey as a showgirl, titled “The Life of a Showgirl,” the playlist will also feature “The Destiny of Ophelia,” “Elizabeth Taylor’s Echo,” “Opalite’s Tale,” “Paternal Influence,” “The Eldest Daughter’s Dilemma,” “Sabotage of Friendship,” “True Romance,” “My Wishlist,” “Woodlands,” and “Cancellation!”, “Honey” in its original form.

As a devoted fan, I can attest that the football player enthusiastically endorsed her 12 tracks, labeling them as “must-listens” – implying he’s enjoyed each and every one of them. On the other hand, Jason humorously shared his eagerness to hear the album before its October 3rd release date, despite not having listened to it yet.

Taylor pointed out a significant trait about Travis: “He’s had the same close-knit group of friends since he was around four years old, and he excels at nurturing these relationships. His loyalty and that of his friends is unwavering.

Following her time connecting with her NFL friends at Arrowhead Stadium, she remarked, “They’re an absolutely hilarious and humorous crowd.

And Taylor’s game day behavior impressed Travis, too.

He jokingly asked, “Shall we discuss signs of a good relationship?” Sharing an anecdote, he mentioned that on her first game, which was the Bears match, she effortlessly entered the stadium through the main entrance using general admission.

That action instantly made him certain she was ready to join the Chiefs’ community: “I thought to myself, ‘She’s absolutely committed. She’s game for the adventure. She’s all about the enjoyment.’

One aspect Taylor admires about her NFL player partner is his tolerance towards her limited understanding of football.

She shared with Travis, “You show such an open-mindedness towards people and you weren’t critical when I admitted my lack of knowledge about your world. I was clueless about things like ‘first down’ and ‘tight end.’

As Travis expressed his gratitude for your whole-hearted immersion into the football world, Taylor pointed out that you didn’t just dive in, but did much more than that.

“I became obsessed with it,” she said. “My friends were like, ‘Who body snatched you?'”

Travis’ sibling and fellow host, Jason Kelce, got emotional when Taylor referred to Travis as a “living exclamation mark.” He enthused that Travis has a personality similar to “enhancing the colors in a photo on your phone.

In Taylor’s words, “That’s how you impact everyone’s life,” and Jason responded with a smile and noticeable emotion. “Now, I use so much more emphasis with exclamation points.

Taylor humorously noted, “My pastimes are reminiscent of those from centuries ago. I take pleasure in sewing, particularly making children’s purses and baby blankets. I find joy in painting. And cooking is another passion of mine.

Indeed, she openly confessed that her passion for baking changes every six months, and at the time of our recording, she found herself deeply engrossed in sourdough baking, which had become a significant part of her life.

Taylor is often found making bread at home and frequently messages friends asking if they’d like some fresh bread. She even follows sourdough blogs and has discovered there’s a large group of people who share the same passion as her for baking sourdough bread.

 

Taylor Swift, known for her “Blank Space,” recently revealed that she’s been busy crafting a new type of sourdough bread. This special creation is intended for Jason and his wife Kylie Kelce’s little girls: Wyatt, Elliotte, Bennett, and Finnley.

She shared that she’s been developing a recipe specifically for the girls, who are fond of anything colorful – Funfetti sourdough bread. This is because they adore rainbow sprinkles. When we spend time together, we often incorporate these sprinkles into our activities.

Beyond the loaf of bread, Taylor developed a special connection with Jason’s daughters, not just through conversation, but also by sharing their affinity for cats – specifically Meredith Grey, Olivia Benson, and Benajmin Button.

Or, in another way:

Apart from bread, Taylor found common ground with Jason’s girls by bonding over their shared love of cats – namely Meredith Grey, Olivia Benson, and Benajmin Button.

She mentioned that the situation presented a significant test for her, as once she gathered children around, her aim was to demonstrate to them that cats weren’t harmful. Her unique approach to proving this involved showing off Benjamin, her rag-doll cat, who permits being held like a newborn by people.

In May 2025, Taylor Swift finally acquired the rights to her first six albums – “Taylor Swift”, “Fearless”, “Speak Now”, “Red”, “1989”, and “Reputation” – following a prolonged legal struggle to secure them.

Instead of involving attorneys or managers, the artist behind “Bad Blood” preferred to entrust negotiations with Shamrock Capital to her mother, Andrea Swift, and her brother, Austin Swift.

She expressed her feelings in a touching manner, saying, “In my line of work, emotions are everything. That’s why, with something as personal as this, I prefer to act from the heart above all else. It isn’t that I’m after owning this asset for financial gain. Instead, it holds deep personal value to me, as these are entries from my lifelong diary.

Hey there! I can’t help but feel like I’m part of their inner circle, you know? It’s been a rollercoaster ride for Taylor, sharing with Shamrock all the times we’ve attempted to acquire something, only to see it slip away. So many times, deals have fallen through at the last second, despite our meticulous planning and believing we had found the perfect solution. It’s like fate has a different plan!

 

She emphasized, “There are do’s and don’ts,” she said. “I will never hide Easter eggs related to my personal life in my work. Instead, they will always revolve around music, perhaps hinting at something new I am working on.

Additionally, Taylor playfully acknowledged that her habit has taken on a slight resemblance to the Zodiac Killer, but she plans to continue offering clues as long as fans continue to find delight in them.

As a devoted enthusiast, I prefer to view Easter eggs as those hidden gems that only fellow fans can appreciate if they’re immersed in the fandom and seeking a standard musical experience. In fact, they often go unnoticed by others who aren’t privy to their presence. To put it simply, “If you know, you know.

According to Taylor, the idea of having Travis join her on stage all started out as a “bit.”

As I shared my idea with him, I noticed a sparkle in his gaze – it seemed like we were both contemplating the amusing possibilities, yet it was more than just a jest.

But for Travis, it was anything but a joke. As he noted, “I was serious in a terrifying fashion.”

 

During her Eras Tour’s European stretch, the artist behind “Cruel Summer” anthem collaborated with producers Max Martin and Shellback on her 12th studio album. Taylor revealed that she traveled to Sweden for recording sessions whenever there were consecutive days off from performances.

She shared that the album reflected her personal experiences and emotions during the tour, as it delved into the hidden aspects of her inner world. This period was marked by intense energy, excitement, and vivacity.

That’s why Taylor said the album is filled with “bangers.” 

From a time in my life filled with the most infectious, untamed, and passionate joy, it originated. This exuberance is clearly evident in the new record, as if it mirrors that lively period of mine.

She shared that the cover art, captured by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot (the same duo who worked on her reputation photoshoot), symbolized her emotional state following a performance on the Eras Tour, after immersing herself in a bath at night.

Reflecting on the events, Taylor realized that they wouldn’t hit the sack until 4 in the morning due to the demanding nature of the performance. They had to navigate through countless challenges in their show, and they pulled it off. Incredibly, they managed two more successful performances, but tonight was especially noteworthy.

The celebrated artist preferred a glimpse behind the curtains rather than a performance-ready shot, as “this album isn’t solely focused on my onstage experiences. It delves into my offstage journey… This suggests that the album’s lyrics primarily explore my experiences offstage.

Despite the album cover being a vibrant mint green featuring Taylor swimming, she explained that the “Life of a Showgirl” period was characterized by an orange hue to reflect its bright and sunny atmosphere.

She pondered, “It seems as if my life’s energy resonates similarly,” she reflected. “This album, in fact, delves into the hidden aspects of my personal life that unfolded behind the stage curtain during this tour – a time filled with intense emotions, pulsating energy, and vivid vitality.

She directly stated, “We don’t. Whatever you input into your mind, it will absorb. Conversely, anything you put on the internet, it can destroy. After being in the music industry for two decades now, it takes a lot to upset me.

Indeed, Taylor joked that even if something is centered around me, my name could appear right in the title, it doesn’t automatically become my concern.

The singer mentioned that by “nearly avoiding a lot of social media,” she has been fostering a very beneficial offline connection. She also shared that she disconnects significantly from the internet.

Last summer of 2025, it was Taylor who stayed with her father after his five-heart bypass operation. She praised him as the “most delightful patient one could ask for,” and shared that he’s been thriving exceptionally well following the surgery.

She noted that he was even funnier than usual following his surgery. “He didn’t realize how many blockages he had,” she added. “I told him, ‘Dad, you underwent a quintuple bypass – five surgeries! That’s incredible. It’s more than we expected.’ To which he replied, ‘Ah, well, I’m from a highly competitive family.’

Andrea has also been “doing great” after getting a new knee this summer, according to Taylor.

In simple terms, the “Miss Americana” star shared that her parents are two of her dearest friends whom she absolutely loves. She found it incredibly special to spend so much time with them during the summer as they had heart-to-heart conversations they usually don’t get to have in short visits.

She dismissed the gossip about her portraying a costumed bear in the 2025 Adam Sandler comedy alongside Travis. However, she felt flattered by the suggestion, as she adores that film deeply.

Taylor added, “Whoever did the bear’s acting was exquisite.”

Her favorite moment from watching the guy on the Chiefs actually involved his mom Donna Kelce.

In the suite, after Travis had clinched the AFC Championship, Taylor remembered the scene. Everyone was ecstatic and shouting. Suddenly, his mother said, “Let’s head down to the field.” I was taken aback and asked, “What do you mean?

Upon realizing that there had been no prior conversation about her joining him, Taylor expressed concern that Travis might react with something along the lines of, “Why are you here, buddy?

She recalled thinking, ‘She assured me he wanted you present,’ to which I responded, ‘Well, if she’s certain, then I suppose it must be true.’

As a devoted follower, I can say that in hindsight, I’m ecstatic I heeded Donna’s wisdom and had the opportunity to share a truly enchanting moment with Travis. Granted, it was an unusual sight, given that I hadn’t encountered so many cameras before, but the experience was unforgettable nonetheless.
