r/TaylorSwift on Reddit: Rolling Stone's 5-Star Review: Taylor Swift Conquers Her Biggest Stage Ever on ‘The Life of a Showgirl’
October 3, 2025 - Loved this bit: “Showgirl is the castle she built out of all the bricks that have been thrown at her. She begged on her knees to change the prophecy, and the love she writes about here did just that. She lost her life’s work, but now the empire belongs to her. Everything you lose is a step you take.” ... I love this album, honestly thought TTPD while lyrically amazing was too long.
