The Life of a Showgirl (feat. Sabrina Carpenter)

We officially made it to the final track of The Life of a Showgirl, and there was no better way to finish than with our Day One lobster, Grayson, joining us and sharing his thoughts on our final TLOASG track!

We’re breaking down “The Life of a Showgirl” featuring Sabrina Carpenter and everything hiding behind the glitter, sequins and lovely bouquets. Why did Taylor Swift say that Sabrina was the perfect person for this song? Who is Kitty inspired by? There are some thoughts on who she could possibly be, and where the name came from!

And is this the first time Taylor has talked about fame without sounding afraid of eventually being replaced?

We also get into Taylor and Sabrina’s very different experiences with fame, the impossible expectations placed on women in entertainment, some Clara Bow and The Lucky One parallels, and the full circle Eras Tour moment hidden at the end of the song.

And because Taylor Swift likes to tease her next album with the closing track, we have to ask what that ending could be telling us about whatever comes next.

Plus we accidentally invent a new game called Condescending or Southern, which honestly may need to become a thing.

It’s the final song breakdown, but we’re definitely not done with The Life of a Showgirl yet.

What did we miss? What else would you like to hear from us? There’s tons of ways to reach us and we always like to hear from you!

AND A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR LOBSTER PRODUCERS AND OUR BIG TIME FRIEND IN STUDIO WITH US! WE LOVE AND APPRECIATE YOU ALWAYS, GRAYSON AND ALL OF OUR LOBSTERS!
