Taylor Swift has added two more clues to the mystery surrounding her next musical move. On September 22, the pop superstar changed her social media bio to “And, baby, that’s sh0w business f0r y0u,” while the lyrics for “The Life of a Showgirl” on Apple Music were also updated, replacing two O’s with zeros.
