Taylor Swift Fuels Ariana Grande and Lady Gaga Album Theories With Sneaky Likes
THE RUNDOWN
- Taylor Swift liked multiple tweets about The Life of a Showgirl, adding fuel to fan theories about the upcoming album.
- One tweet connected her announcement date for the album to a Lady Gaga song’s release date.
- A second post mused on the possibility of Swift collaborating with Grande; Swift liked it and sparked more speculation on duet rumors.
Taylor Swift continued her new The Life of a Showgirl era by dropping a few hints about the direction of her new album—and the two A-list singers who might be connected to the project.
Swifties on X noticed that the singer liked a post from a fan who pointed out that Swift announced her album exactly 12 years to the day that Gaga released her song “Applause” (on Aug. 12, 2013). E! noted the song was also part of Swift’s intro playlist during her Eras Tour.
Swift also liked a tweet about a possible collaboration with Ariana Grande. A Grande fan account tweeted in Portuguese, “Everyone knows that there are two people in the world capable of breaking the internet with a feat,” alongside a photo of Grande and Swift. The post appears to have been deleted, but the user kept a screen recording confirming that Swift had liked it.
Swift also liked tweets identifying Easter eggs for The Life of a Showgirl in her “Anti-Hero” music video and “Bejeweled” music videos:
Of course, Swift has only begun to tease what’s coming in her 12th album. She’s expected to reveal much more later this evening during her appearance on boyfriend Travis Kelce’s podcast, New Heights. The episode comes out at 7 P.M. ET.
