Taylor Swift Fans Are Not Happy With Her ‘Sad’ Album Announcement: ‘Girl. Come On.’ </a>
</p>

<p id=”par-6_101″>“A major hint was dropped leading up to Swift’s album announcement snippet, which points to the fact that Sabrina Carpenter might very well be featured on <em>The Life of a Showgirl</em>,” they say. “In a carousel of photos hinting at the album announcement posted by <em>Taylor Nation</em>, Taylor Swift’s official fan engagement team, the last photo portrays Carpenter and Swift performing together during <em>The Eras Tour</em>, and Carpenter is the only guest featured in the carousel. Since it is heavily rumored that Swift’s 12th album will be very much pop-centered, Sabrina Carpenter would certainly be an amazing addition to the project.”</p>
<p id=”par-7_19″>They note that Carpenter has the highest odds of featuring on Swift’s new album, placing the probability at 60%. </p>
<h2 class=”wp-block-heading” id=”h-several-other-artists-could-possibly-appear-on-the-record”>Several other artists could possibly appear on the record</h2>
<p id=”par-8_47″>While Carpenter has the greatest odds of appearing on the album, other artists might also collaborate with Swift. Betting experts say Ed Sheeran has the second highest odds at 15%. He has already <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/1-song-made-taylor-swift-become-friends-ed-sheeran.html/”>collaborated with Swift</a> multiple times in the past, including on the song “End Game.”</p>
<p id=”par-9_68″>“What makes Sheeran’s odds of appearing on Taylor Swift’s new album even higher is the fact that ‘End Game’ is the only collaboration that is included in a new Spotify playlist, which was shared by Taylor Swift after the new album announcement snippet; this could be a coincidence, but in the Taylor Swift universe, it might as well be an Easter egg for a new Ed Sheeran feature.”</p>
<p id=”par-10_18″>Other potential collaborators are Selena Gomez at 10% probability and Beyoncé and Lady Gaga, both at 5% probability.</p>
