Taylor Swift’s album art for “The Life of a Showgirl” has reportedly irked pop icon Britney Spears. According to a source, the “Toxic” hitmaker has accused the 35-year-old of copying her wardrobe in the announcement cover. Spears seemingly felt “ripped off.” Moreover, she is apparently not alone in this. Pamela Anderson reportedly also feels the same.

Sources say Britney Spears wants credit in Taylor Swift’s album cover

Due to her album art, Taylor Swift has allegedly managed to land in the bad books of two icons of the entertainment industry — Britney Spears and Pamela Anderson. They reportedly accused the “Lover” soloist of reusing their looks and styles from their past work in her album cover.

The report came soon after Swift shared the album art of TS12, “The Life of a Showgirl.” In it, she donned a bedazzled thong paired with a rhinestone-adorned bra. A source told RadarOnline that Spears claimed that she wore the same look in her 2001 The Dream Within a Dream Tour. Hence, she seemingly demanded a “credit in the liner notes” of Swift’s album.

Meanwhile, a friend of the 43-year-old informed the outlet why Spears was upset. She didn’t have any issue with the “Cruel Summer” artist getting inspired by her look. She felt disappointed because she was not given any credit. “To see it repackaged without so much as a nod feels wrong,” said the pal.

On the other hand, Anderson also felt that she had not been “properly acknowledged.” An insider revealed the “Baywatch” alum found that Swift’s new album apparently derived inspiration from her 2024 movie, “The Last Showgirl.” In the pop sensation’s 12th studio album cover, the “vintage Vegas aesthetic” and palette appeared to be similar to Anderson’s film.

“Credits in the liner notes for her and Brit would be the classy thing to do,” a source said. Meanwhile, in an episode of the “New Heights” podcast, the “Fearless” vocalist touched upon her album’s context. She told her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, that it’s all about “what was going on behind the scenes in my inner life” during her Eras Tour. She referred to the time as “exuberant and electric and vibrant,” hinting at her dazzling album art.
