Once again, Taylor Swift has delivered. Hours after the release of two limited-edition vinyl copies of her next album, The Life of a Showgirl, fans flocked to the internet and quickly cleared the shelves. In less than an hour, both of the variations, which are a part of the Shiny Bug Collection, were sold out.
Two eye-catching designs were included in the limited-edition releases: a wintergreen and onyx marble variation and a violet shimmer marble. Each featured unique cover art that showcased Swift’s stunning new showgirl-inspired style. Although the drop was advertised as being available for 48 hours or until supplies ran out, fans and collectors had to act quickly due to the high demand.
Swift’s team confirmed these vinyls were a one-time-only offer, making them instant collector’s items. For fans who managed to snag one, it’s a prized piece of Swift memorabilia ahead of the album’s release on October 3, 2025.
This isn’t the first time Swift’s vinyls have flown off the shelves, but the speed of this sellout highlights her unmatched power in the music industry. Not only is she dominating digital streams and live tours, but she’s also keeping the vinyl market alive and thriving with unique, creative offerings that fans simply can’t resist.
With The Life of a Showgirl shaping up to be one of the most anticipated albums of the year, this record-breaking sellout is yet another reminder: when it comes to Taylor Swift, every release is an event.
