Taylor Swift is taking a rare step back from the spotlight, skipping this year’s MTV Video Music Awards in Elmont, New York, even though she’s nominated for the coveted Artist of the Year. E! News confirmed she’ll be absent, and her fiancé, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, is also expected to miss the event after just playing a major game in Brazil. Swift, recently off her record-breaking Eras Tour that ended in December 2024, shared on the New Heights podcast with Kelce that she’s been embracing downtime, rediscovering old hobbies like baking, sewing, and painting. She describes her domestic interests as “granny” hobbies, adding she’s currently obsessed with making sourdough, joking about how it’s taken over her life.Big news is swirling around Swift beyond just her break from awards shows. Her twelfth studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, is scheduled for release on October 3, 2025. According to Wikipedia, Swift created this album during the European leg of her Eras Tour, returning to work with Max Martin and Shellback for the first time since Reputation in 2017. Variety and multiple music insiders say the album is deeply inspired by her life as a performer, with 12 tracks and Sabrina Carpenter featured on the title song. She announced the project on the New Heights podcast, which promptly became the most-watched podcast premiere yet. Photographers Mert and Marcus captured the showgirl-inspired visuals, and journalists are calling this her most glamorous look yet. Spotify announced the record as the most pre-saved album ever, with Target planning to open 500 stores at midnight for buyers to snag exclusive CD editions.In her personal life, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce announced their engagement in August on Instagram with a cheeky nod to their professions, writing, “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.” Despite public excitement, sources tell People and Page Six their wedding will be a small, private affair, likely next summer in Rhode Island at Swift’s Watch Hill mansion, currently undergoing a two-million-dollar renovation. The couple reportedly want to ensure the ceremony remains an intimate moment, not a spectacle, with only close friends and family. An unnamed insider from ExtraTV and People magazine says Swift delights in showing off her old mine-cut brilliant diamond ring, and friends describe her as “incredibly happy.” Rhode Island’s governor has publicly hoped the rumors about their home state wedding are true, further fueling local excitement. Meanwhile, Swifties can count down the days to October 3, anticipating both the album and the continued chapter in Swift’s fairytale off-stage life.Thank you for tuning in and don’t forget to subscribe.
