Model/Actriz released their sophomore album Pirouette following the success of their debut, Dogsbody. The album is described as sexually commanding and righteously diva-esque, drawing inspiration from artists like Lady Gaga and Grace Jones, as well as classical ballet and dissonant dance music.

Co-produced and mixed by Seth Manchester and mastered by Matt Colton, who also worked on Dogsbody, Pirouette showcases Model/Actriz's evolution from punk aggression to queer pop, exploring new avenues of freedom. The album is a deliberate step towards reasserting their artistry, shedding layers to reveal a brighter, heavier, and more direct sound.

The pop influences on Pirouette bring to life "thumping club music in the spirit of cabaret", inviting listeners to experience the cathartic release of hitting the dancefloor. The album swerves out of the maze and into the spotlight, offering a fresh perspective on their musical identity.
