Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter sing together on “The Life of a Showgirl,” the closing title track of Swift’s album. It appears on the original album, released October 3, 2025, and is described by Apple Music as a duet. If you are looking for the song, choose the album listing or edition that includes that title track.
Which song features Sabrina Carpenter?
It is “The Life of a Showgirl,” the final track on the original album. Apple Music identifies the song as a duet and lists the album as Swift’s 12th full-length release, with former collaborators Max Martin and Shellback also credited on the album. Apple Music’s album listing can show multiple versions with different song counts, so check the edition name and tracklist rather than relying on a count alone.

Which edition should you choose?
| Edition | What it includes | Release information |
|---|---|---|
| Original The Life of a Showgirl | Includes “The Life of a Showgirl” as its closing track. | Released October 3, 2025, according to Apple Music. |
| The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore | The original album plus four additional songs: “Patient Zero,” “Cleveland!,” “Pink Clouding” and “Babylon,” according to the Associated Press. | Universal Music Japan lists a digital release date of September 25, 2026. |
The Encore is an expanded edition, not a replacement name for every version of the album. Both the original album and the expanded edition include the title track; the additional songs distinguish The Encore. The Associated Press’ report on The Encore identifies its four new tracks.
How can you listen or get a physical copy?
For streaming, look for the album on a music service and confirm that its tracklist contains “The Life of a Showgirl.” Apple Music lists the album and the later Encore edition, but its album pages can display different versions and track counts.

- Taylor Swift's 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, will be released worldwide October 3, 2025
Official sources list physical CD, vinyl and cassette formats. The Taylor Swift UK store describes a 12-track CD called The Life of a Showgirl: It’s Frightening Edition, with collectible cover and disc artwork, a double-sided folded poster and an eight-page booklet. That product page restricts orders to customers with both billing and shipping addresses in the UK or Ireland. Check the official UK store listing for that edition’s details; Universal Music Japan’s artist page lists the available format categories. Those listings do not establish current stock or availability in other countries.
What is The Encore, and why were more songs added?
Swift said she wrote the Encore songs with Max Martin and Shellback after traveling to Sweden. In an Instagram caption quoted by the Associated Press, she wrote: “Really we just wanted to reflect and take in how grateful we were for the moment we were in, but there was a studio there and we did what we do when we feel anything at all: We wrote more songs.”
