Swift will be the only guest on October 8th
NBC has announced that global superstar Taylor Swift will be the sole guest on Late Night with Seth Meyers on Wednesday, October 8th, and streaming the next day on Peacock. The appearance, which the network is billing as a TAY/kover, will feature an extended, one-on-one conversation with host Seth Meyers.
Swift’s visit to Studio 8G marks her third time on the show, following her interviews in 2014 and 2021. The timing coincides with the release of her highly anticipated 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, which is set to debut on Friday, October 3rd. Swift has confirmed that the album, written during her record-breaking Eras Tour, will not have any additional tracks or surprise releases.
In a promo video released on the show’s social channels, Meyers teased the upcoming event by sipping from a TAY/kover mug while wearing a sparkly orange cardigan from Swift’s new album merchandise line. The episode is expected to cover a range of topics, including the new album, her recent engagement to Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce, and her upcoming theatrical “release party” film event for The Life of a Showgirl.
This Late Night appearance is part of a series of promotional stops for Swift, who is also scheduled to appear on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Monday, October 6th, and a pre-taped segment for The Graham Norton Show, airing on October 3rd.
Spotify announced earlier today (Mon, Sept 29th) that Swift has broken another record on its platform as pre-saves for the album surpassed five million, marking it the most pre-saved album on the Countdown Page in the streamer’s history.
Many Target stores will open at midnight on October 3rd to give fans a chance to pick up exclusive versions of the album, including the single pressing of The Crowd is Your King edition on Summertime Spritz Pink with a giant poster, three CD variations with posters, and more.
