Taylor Swift is back to rule the charts again!

Within 24 hours of releasing her anticipated 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, the Cruel Summer hitmaker achieved historic success, shattering two major Spotify records.

On Friday, October 3, the official Instagram account of Spotify revealed that the 14-time Grammy winner had smashed both a major 2025 record and an all-time streaming milestone on the first day of its release.

In the first post, the music streaming giant shared, “On October 3rd, Taylor Swift’s The Life of a Showgirl became Spotify’s most-streamed album in a single day in 2025 so far.

Meanwhile, the second post revealed, “The Life of a Record-Breaker. On October 3rd, 2025, Taylor Swift’s ‘The Fate of Ophelia’ became the most-streamed song in a single day in Spotify history.”

Notably, the songstress broke her own record for the most-streamed song in a single day, which she achieved last year with the release of Fortnight from her 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department.

Moreover, The Life of a Showgirl began smashing records even before its released, as Spotify announced that the album had broken its record for the most pre-saves for an album, with over five million advance adds.

Taylor Swift’s The Life of a Showgirl contains 12 tracks, with the titular song featuring Sabrina Carpenter.
