The Eras Tour dancers are showgirls, too, in spite of everything! Following a second countdown on August 21, one other alternate vinyl cowl dropped for preorder. Dancers Taylor Banks, Sydney Moss, Tori Evans, and Audrey Douglass pose subsequent to their showboss, Swift. Technically, it’s Swift’s first album cowl with different individuals on it. What’s a showgirl with out her women?
On August 18, Swift dropped two restricted version vinyl pressings for Showgirl known as “The Shiny Bug” version, one in Wintergreen & Onyx Marbled vinyl and the opposite in Violet Shimmer Marbled vinyl. However why is she speaking about shiny bugs? As a result of Swift loves symbolism, we now have to have a look at one of many shiniest bugs on the market, a jewel beetle, particularly the Scarab beetles, which characterize the cycle of life, dying, and rebirth in Historical Egypt — much like how Swift is attempting to seperate her previous work from this new album, she needs a rebirth post-Eras tour. One among Swift’s muses, Elizabeth Taylor, wore shiny bug jewellery as Cleopatra in her 1963 movie and even had a golden scarab artwork piece in her house — perhaps that is an homage to Swift and Taylor’s related relationship to media concerning their private life.
