“I’ll never forget how excited I was in 2006 when my first album sold 40,000 copies in its first week. I was 16 and couldn’t even fathom that that many people would care enough about my music to invest their time and energy into it,” she said.
“Here we are all these years later and a hundred times that many people showed up for me this week. I have 4 million thank you’s I want to send to the fans, and 4 million reasons to feel even more proud of this album than I already was,” she added.
She thanked fans for celebrating “The Life of a Showgirl” in movie theaters, investing in vinyl, streaming, watching the videos, buying CDs, reading the poems in the packaging, and “immersing yourselves in ‘The Life of a Showgirl.’”
“I’ll cherish this feeling forever. Just wow. Thank you for the lovely bouquet,” Taylor said.
