— Superstar Taylor Swift’s latest studio album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” arrives Friday with a promotional blitz that includes midnight sales at Target stores, a release party at movie theaters around the globe and pop-up experiences in New York and Los Angeles. The release follows “The Tortured Poets Department,” Swift’s 11th studio album, which debuted at No. “So few can get such a massive number of people listening to the same thing at once. So, it would surprise me a lot if the new release did not reach her usual level of success,” she said. On Friday, TikTok opened its own “Life of a Showgirl” installation in Los Angeles.
