Civilization, as we know it, took a brief leave of absence when Taylor Swift announced her twelfth studio album, 'The Life of a Showgirl'. Twelve tracks, twelve fresh avenues for heartbreak and triumph, with Sabrina Carpenter laced into the title piece like a rhinestone on a velvet glove. 'The Fate of Ophelia' whispers Shakespearean sorrow, 'Elizabeth Taylor' suggests diamonds, and 'Eldest Daughter' lands squarely as the dreaded track five. Naturally, such pageantry has lured in an eager spectator or two.

Even the elegantly sardonic Zoe Kravitz has succumbed, her applause arriving early and without restraint.
