The numbers are in for Taylor Swift\u2019s<\/span> \u201cThe Life of a Showgirl\u201d album<\/strong>. Many Swifties want to know how much<\/strong> her 12th studio album, which was released on October 3, has made so far in its first week and how many records it has sold. Fortunately, Billboard has tallied some of the gross sales for Swift\u2019s chart-topping effort, while Swift herself still marvels at how many people \u201ccare enough\u201d to buy her music throughout her career. Here\u2019s how much \u201cLife of Showgirl\u201d has made in sales in its debut week.<\/p>\n In its opening week, Taylor Swift\u2019s \u201cThe Life of a Showgirl\u201d has earned at least $135 million in sales from 4 million records sold, according to Billboard<\/a>. However, even the site says that this number \u201cis surely too low,\u201d so it\u2019s expected that the official numbers will be much higher.<\/p>\n In response, Swift congratulated all 4 million fans that bought her latest album in an Instagram post<\/a>. \u201cI have 4 million thank you\u2019s I want to send to fans,\u201d she wrote, \u201cand 4 million reasons to feel even more proud of this album than I already was.\u201d<\/p>\n The Grammy-winning artist<\/a> still can\u2019t believe the extent of her fanbase, especially when compared to when she released her first album nearly 20 years ago. \u201cI\u2019ll 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\u2019t even fathom that that many people would care enough about my music to invest their time and energy into it.\u201d<\/p>\n On top of that, the movie \u201cTaylor Swift: The Official Release Party of a Showgirl\u201d<\/a> raked in over $34 million domestically in 3,702 theaters over its limited three-day weekend, per Box Office Mojo<\/a>. It also earned $16 million internationally, bringing the grand total of gross sales to over $50 million. While this pales in comparison to the $261 million that \u201cTaylor Swift: The Eras Tour\u201d made, that\u2019s still a good chunk of change.<\/p>\n The post Taylor Swift\u2019s \u2018Life of a Showgirl\u2019 Makes a Ridiculous Amount in Its First Week<\/a> appeared first on Music Feeds<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nSwift compares The Life of a Showgirl sales to her first album<\/h2>\n
