The cat is out of the bag! Taylor Swift has officially announced her 12th studio album, "The Life of a Showgirl," and now fans are looking for any and all hints that could provide some information about what's to come.

Specifically, they looked at Swift and Travis Kelce's background in the teaser for the upcoming episode of New Heights. And in the background, there were a few things with Swift's initials scattered around.

Fans couldn't get enough of this, speculating over what it could mean.

Swift also released a playlist on Spotify to celebrate the release, and fans noticed that the first song she listed was "22" from her album Red, while there were 22 songs total on it, and its total runtime is one hour and 22 minutes.

So, could it be 22 new songs on the album?

Taylor Swift seems to be hinting at the number 22 through her new playlist.
