Taylor Swift is drawing attention with the release of new promotional imagery for her upcoming album The Life of a Showgirl, alongside a special 48-hour “Shiny Bug Vinyl Collection” available exclusively on her website.

The 34-year-old singer revealed the photograph, shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, as part of the album’s rollout.

In the image, Swift poses against a pale green wall in a sequined red-and-black bodysuit with nude fishnet tights.

Her tousled blonde hair falls over her shoulders while bold makeup and a red lip complete the look.

The shot highlights the theatrical tone she has described for the project.

Swift credited longtime collaborators Max Martin and Shellback as producers of the record, acknowledging them in her announcement on Instagram.

The imagery reflects the same dramatic style that accompanied her 2017 album Reputation, also photographed by Alas and Piggott.

Reaction to the photograph quickly spread online. Some fans praised the image as confident and fitting for the project’s theme.

“We wanted a lead single but you look beautiful, so it’s fine,” one fan wrote.

Another commented, “We wanted a single but you served so it’s a win.”

Others expressed surprise, with one post simply asking, “OMG TAYLOR?”

Another user predicted, “Taylor isn’t dropping an album, she’s dropping a bomb. The industry is trembling.”

At the same time, criticism emerged from those who objected to the more revealing look.

One user wrote, “Why are you suddenly so desperate to be seen as a sex symbol? LOL.”

Another questioned, “When did Taylor start showing skin like the rest of Hollywood?”

Some suggested the change in appearance was a marketing decision, with one comment stating, “The more you strip, the more you sell.”

Swift had already revealed the album’s track list last week during an appearance on the New Heights podcast hosted by her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

“We’ve made songs that I’m so proud of,” Swift said on the program.

“It felt like catching lightning in a bottle.”

She explained that she wanted the album’s imagery to match the intensity of the music.

“I loved what [Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott] did with those photos [for Reputation], so I called them up for [this album],” Swift said. “I am so happy with the way the photos came out with this one.”

According to Swift, the album’s cover was designed to capture the emotions she associates with ending a concert on her Eras Tour.

“My day ends with me in a bathtub — not usually in a bedazzled dress — but we try to keep it decent,” she said.

“I wanted to glamorize all the different aspects of how [the Eras Tour] felt and [the Life of a Showgirl cover] is how that felt at the end of the night.”

Swift added that the project is one of her most personal.

“This is a full send. I care about this record more than I can even overstate,” she told the podcast audience.

The album features 12 tracks: The Fate of Ophelia, Elizabeth Taylor, Opalite, Father Figure, Eldest Daughter, Ruin the Friendship, Actually Romantic, Wi$h Li$t, Wood, CANCELLED!, Honey, and the title track The Life of a Showgirl.

Sabrina Carpenter, who previously opened for Swift on her Eras Tour, is featured on the title track.

Kelce, who previewed the songs with Swift, described them as “bangers,” while actress Zoë Kravitz told Extra the album has “no skips.”

The Life of a Showgirl will be Swift’s next full-length release, continuing her streak of chart-topping projects while presenting a new visual and artistic direction.
