John Stamos Puts His Spin on The Life of a Showgirl
In a new Instagram post shared on Thursday, Aug. 14, Stamos, shared a reimagined version of Swift’s new album artwork, this time featuring himself on the cover.
The photo, which appeared to be taken from his younger years, showed the Hollywood heartthrob giving a smoldering look to the camera while flashing his abs in an unbuttoned shirt.
The photo still featured Swift’s sparkly orange font color on the cover, except instead of The Life of a Showgirl, Stamos’ version read, “The Life of an Ex-Teen Idol.”

John Stamos References Taylor Swift Lyrics
In his caption, Stamos couldn’t help but slip in a very appropriate lyric from Swift, writing, “big reputation,” under the post in a nod to the song “Endgame” off the singer’s Reputation album.
Stamos, who is widely known for his role on Full House as Uncle Jesse, first appeared on General Hospital back in the ’80s, joining the soap opera as Blackie Parrish when he was just 18 years old.
