Apparently not content to simply rule the world of music, Taylor Swift‘s now set her sights on cinema, too.
The pop superstar’s The Official Release Party of a Showgirl theatrical event — a film accompaniment to her new album, The Life of a Showgirl — has debuted at #1 at the box office. According to Box Office Mojo, The Official Release Party of a Showgirl, which featured the premiere of Swift’s video “The Fate of Ophelia,” plus lyric videos, behind-the scenes footage and Swift’s insights about each of the album’s songs — bested the competition with a $33 million haul.
Previous #1 One Battle After Another landed at #2 with an additional $11.125 million, while sports biopic The Smashing Machine, starring Dwayne Johnson as MMA fighter Mark Kerr, managed $6 million to grab third place in its first weekend.
