If Taylor swift was a guy, she'd be hailed as a genius for her ability to write hit songs. Nobody, in history, has been more prolific in writing number-one-hit-after-number-one-hit.
Can you write a single hit for men women or children? Didn't think so otherwise we would have heard from you. Taylor writes one after another after another after another...and that's not genius?
Taylor is right, it IS sexism. I love Bruno Mars, Ed Sheeran, One Direction, Sam Smith etc.but they are all doing the exact same thing Taylor is doing but they don't get called out for it. Take Ed's song "Don't" for example. Now, I love the song and he had every right to write it, but why is no one talking about that while y'all CONSTANTLY talk about Taylor? Sam Smith's entire album is about some guy he was in love with who didn't love him back, but all people talk about is what an amazing singer he is (which they should). So do NOT tell me sexism has nothing to do with it.
i think it's like the domino effect. once someone called out taylor for it, that's when everyone decided to pick on her for that particular reason too. i think it's much easier to target someone who everyone is already targeting instead of others where you might come off as a bitchy/jealous
***** They're not negative, they're just honest. And many of her songs is where she blames herself for whatever happened in the relationship and apologizes. In the chorus of IKYWT she sings 'Shame on ME'. In Dear John she sings 'I should have known.' Back To December is her saying sorry, the whole song. Also listen to Ours, Love Story, You Belong With Me, I'm Only Me When I'm With You, Enchanted, Fearless, Begin Again and more. And the songs on 1989 that are about her own personal relationships are simply describing the relationship, her feelings and how it affected her as she is looking back at this love.
Whether you love or hate her, you have to admit that she has become successful without using her body as a sexual object or singing about vulgar subjects. She's never had a drug problem or leaked nudes, is rarely seen partying at night clubs. She wasn't seen with alcohol until she was 24. That's pretty awesome.
Dear Taylor, PLEASE talk about reading, talk about READING !!!! What I am trying to say is that: She is absolutely insane about 1 clothes 2 personal problems. First. This is truly wrong. She writes for young people in the first place and much of all they will see is glamour … This glamourous insanity will be imprinted in their minds, and then minds will be corrupted with the consumer illness. If I say it more directly, it is why she appear in magazines in shorts and make-up in order to say two sentences about her daily life? Is it so significant to be shown on screen every month? Why doesn't she set a good example if she has much influence ? Firstly: read good books at least seven hours a week, do fitness, go for a walk or meditate, talk if you can with sincerity about moral subjects that matter (not only sexual minority and freedom of self expression) -there are perhaps, such problems like hoboes, poverty, very bad conditions of life around the world, infidelity, cruelty towards weaker parts of society, human relationships again today are very unstable. And certainly the corruption of mind by TV. BUt FIRSTLY, persuade your admirers TO READ BOOKS ! To understand that buying clothes is no more than 15 % of life ! When children and the young spend 5 hours a day in the web, this is insane. When they read two books a year, this is insane. She is influential and she has no crystal beautiful about her attitude to life to show. Just talking 'bout all the details of your personal life is not enough.
Taylor Swift. The only celebrity that doesn't feel full of her self of important. Inviting fans to their house?? Damn, no celebrity would do that except they have a amazing heart. :) xxx
lot of star's invite ppl into there home's,and give them money,or buy them a home,what the fuck you talkin about,go back too the bar room,and stop the bull shit,your just her friend,or brother in law,etc.
***** she's fake😂 she has a nice voice maybe not the best but belive me she is an awesome writer since she was 12 and has a better viice than all of us
She's completely right about the sexism. Sure, some male artists ( but very few...) are called out for writing songs but are they constantly called a slut? Or a whore? Or over emotional and desperate and crazy? If a guy dates lots of girls, he's just a 'player'. If a girl dates lots of guys, she's a 'slut'. She's slut shamed and body shamed every single day and that's perfectly okay just because 'all she writes about is her boyfriends'. Even though that's not even true in the slightest.
"haters gonna hate hate hate hate hate" Taylor as she laughs all the way to the bank. I am a grandma and I love Taylor, people are just so jealous, if you don't like her why do you watch the video????
Your to old to be listening to Taylor Swift!!! And your right she is laughing all the way to the bank. She has all these Swifty's fooled in to thinking she's there friend and they believe what ever she says. Then these morons go and buy 4or5 albums at a time. I got news for u Swifty's don't expect messages on Tumblr or Twittes not that she's gotten what she want's. Suckers!!!
Luciano Vasquez god you keep replying to everyone spreading hate on Taylor. I cant change your mind, dude. Just stop wasting your time, you cant change fans into hater and haters into fans, that happens with time and help by no one. And yes she is still on tumblr everyday and still sending christmas presents to her fans from tumblr. Stop hating on a girl who booked a flight for a fan to meet her on NY's jingle bell ball and sends huge packages with lots of presents to her fans. Bye. Take care.
wendyl0v3 Who are u?? Her granddaughter!! She was posting things about her fans when she was trying to sell as many albums as possible. Now that she has sold the most this year all she's been posting lately is stuff from her celebrity friends. Get Real Swifty's!! She is well on her way to just being your typical celebrity Diva!!! She's like !! Swifty's Who!!
Luciano Vasquez Well you must be a closet Swifty because you are here giving her your time so no matter what you claim you must secretly love her and her music because normal people don't waste their time watching videos about celebs they don't like much less posting comments to those videos.
What an intelligent, thoughtful and grounded person. So nice to see someone of her depth of character doing so well in what can be such a shallow and narrow minded industry. I think she is an excellent role model and she seems like a really wonderful person.
Asdfasd Asdfasdf Really? If you watch her music video "the best day" you see clips from when she was a child. She was exactly the same back then. Do you really think they told her at three years old that "oh, you need to act like a sweet little child because one day you'll be super famous and we need to prove to the public that you're not fake". I mean, really? Why would she hide the good things she's done? Dude, you're the one who needs to wake up.
Because she complains about pirating music and pulling her music from companies she doesn't feel pays her enough while sitting on piles of cash. Greedy, average woman with nothing real to say. She lives an uncommon life and reacts to it in all the common boring ways. People like her and Justin Bieber put too much stock into themselves. True artists never even know they're great. Oh and her saying that people thought when she reinvented herself that her music wouldn't be coming from intellectual writing as a way of inferring that her past work had done so is just ridiculous. It's not even that I don't like songs about love and relationships... It's that I don't like songs from artists that are all about themselves. I hate Eminem for the very same reason, but at the very least he didn't cast himself as an "intellectual". he knows what he is and admits it.. Taylor on the other hand is looking at herself through a rose colored mirror. She's a two-bit pop artist who's career will end as soon as her looks fade. I'd like anyone to say anything to the contrary and actually believe it.
Catsincages Why should I say "They're okay" if I can't stand them. The only reason I even give this time to post back is that I see it FUCKING EVERYWHERE and it's annoying. She doesn't deserve every penny out of every song she writes because song artists are over-paid to begin with. I feel this way about most in the entertainment world. Oh and sharing freely is not stealing. I once heard "art belongs to the public" but somehow her intellectual property somehow crosses both borders and is exempt from the fallout from both. If anyone is naive it's you. My 'vitriol' is well placed. Honestly I try to hedge out any mention of this but Facebook love to parade talentless pretty faces. Ever wonder why she doesn't do much without synthesizers present? What she does, does not warrant a following of millions. Aretha could have only wished to be half as lucky while being twice as talented. You mention the industry like I'm not well aware of marketing. My disgust of this is in direct conflict with your remark. If anything the media inflates this not those who cry out for some sort of change from this dubbed, poppy hell-hole music has become. Oh and you mock me with name calling while speaking of my vitriol. Pot... kettle... black. Just because I don't like your Idol why don't you just say "You're entitled to your opinion" and move on? Because you're just like me. You just happen to be as argumentative as me but likely don't have the stones to admit it. Lots of luck jackass. :) Sorry i guess I read both of the comments above me as one so some of my rhetoric will not come across in full sense. just pretend you're the same as the jackass above you too. Shouldn't be hard.
Kenny M If you had any talent and became a famous singer or movie producer you wouldn't want people enjoying your material for free, could also relate this to any business, they aren't charities lmao get back to me when you're a mega star and earning an average wage
I'm so proud of who she became and all the accomplishment she made. She never hurt or was rude to anyone to be where she is right now and that is beyond important and such a good example to kids and teens of how you realize your dreams being a hard worker. Love love love her.
Of course I don't know her personally but she really does seem like a lovely person. She seems very sincere. People who say that they "miss the old Taylor" I get what they mean but people have a right to change and develop. She was only fifteen when se became famous, you can't expect a young girl with that kind of lifestyle to stay the same forever. I think her character is still the same... As for Miley Cyrus you know, people always say they wish she was still the old Miley but she became famous with her ROLE as Hannah Montana and not as Miley herself.. And she was even younger than Taylor.. I can only imagine what it must be like to go through puberty and just not have a normal life and have no privacy whatsoever.. But that's how I see it, I know a lot of people will disagree. Anyway I love Taylor and I think she has a great personality.
I find all the hate she receives from the commenters here quite comical. It's always the same too, "she's ice cold, she's a bitch, she's greedy," and there's never ANY justification to back up these claims because it doesn't exist. Yes, she came from a very privileged upbringing and for that it was easier to make her way into the music industry. So you're mad cause she didn't grow up poor? Get over it. She has integrity, an immense amount of talent, beauty, quirkiness and by the looks of it some of you can't handle that. Maybe redirect that negative energy at working on your own lives instead of slamming her because she has a great life. Grow up.
I love that she is in physical contact with her fans. She’s not afraid of them, and understands they make her famous and rich. They love and admire her.
People have to understand that singing about a relationship is not singing about your ex-boyfriend. I think it's a difference. Some male singers have songs dedicated to their ex-girlfriends and why nobody talks about those? She is singing about love. Relationships. Heartbreak. Pain. Sadness. And all of those things that come with it.
You're right. Most people don't understand that songwriters are storytellers. Just because they write a song about some kind of relationship it doesn't mean that that relationship is real. It's just like short stories or short-films. They tell stories.
kc135tube That's true. We all have to admit that her songs are mostly about love, but not about the love we see in the movies. It's real life love, and that don't give them the right to call her "crazy".
If she had no relationships she would have no material. Her relationships would still exist without her causing unnecessary drama....hence she's doing it deliberately for combination of reasons. One of those reasons being....writing material and screaming out for attention.
"I wanna fight double-standards. I wanna weak pink and tell you how I feel about politics. And those things doesn't have to cancel each other out. I still wanna have a sharp pen, a thin skin, and open heart."
i don’t think people understand how talented this woman is. yes she was a huge fan base, but to outsiders, she’s this crazy dramatic person who only cares about ex boyfriends. in reality, she’s a smart, articulate, creative and talented artist who is someone the world has never seen before.
The world desperately needs a role model like Taylor. As a senior, I see a moral decline in our society perpetuated by young "adults". Taylor is a breath of fresh air and a classy lady. I'm so glad that she is so willing to give so much of herself for the general welfare of all of us. Taylor is a poster child for human kindness. Bravo, Taylor!!!
Phil Collins's first solo album was inspired by and written about his divorce. No one complained that he was over sharing. I think Taylor Swift is great.
I used to consider myself a casual fan. I’m 53yo. Most of my favorite artists are my age or older. Then I got to see her this past June in Minneapolis. She’s an awesome singer and she puts on the greatest performance I’ve ever seen. Thank you, Taylor.
Seeing some comments saying Taylor doesn't write songs by herself and I am like *facepalm* they are just pathetic bias and ignorant people. Taylor Swift writes 'Speak Now' album all by herself and that album also won Grammys. Also, songwriter association gave her the songwriter of the year awards like 5 years in a row. Everyone who has worked with her praised her a lot. Ryan Tedler said he has never met anyone who can write songs so quickly like her and called her a prodigy. Imogen Heap said she had prejudged her, but after working with Taylor, she had to change her mind. Because Taylor can write great songs and knows what could become a hit.
When men write songs with other people it's seen as them collaborating, but when women do it's because "they need help" or "can't write a song on their own".
Taylor is so well spoken, honest, genuine, and sincere. She only wants the best for everyone around her and puts so much work and talent into her career and she is absolutely amazing.
I love how she admits that her life isn't normal. Most celebrities say they want a "normal life". You can try to have a normal life but that's not what comes with the territory of putting yourself out there.
Taylor Swift is so awesome as a singer and to her fans as well. She has soared big time in 2023 and she is now a billionare.. she didn't let fame get into her head... Everyone loves her. I can see why
I would honestly start crying if I met Taylor. I’d feel like I’m meeting a best friend. She’s been a part of my life since I was like 8. She’s traveled through my life ever since. Her music has made my day better, and made me bawl my eyes out when I needed to. Ugh! I love her so much :)
+ann landers When he used the word " legend " , it perfectly describe Swift's success. I don't really care for the girl myself , but it's nice that she's doing well in her career. Quit being rude.
This made me cry. I love her so much. She is the only one I can have my little sisters listen to her music without worrying about explicit content. I have posters in my room. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Just realized the chorus of welcome to new york is all the same note. So many of her songs sound similar to me. Her voice isn’t remarkable, but it’s instantly identifiable, which any singing star needs to succeed. She’s drop-dead gorgeous and tall and leggy and really nice. And she’s generous.
LOVE Taylor and her influence on our youth. Had the BEST time taking my daughter back to Arrowhead stadium in my hometown to see her this past summer. Keep it up Taylor, we think you ROCK! ❤🎶
Not really sure but it seems like many overly analyze Taylor Swift's lyrics as being connected to a certain guy and bash her for sharing, but not for other female singers ?? Perhaps because she's had high-profile relationships ? hmm
Im 47 now but I loved Taylor Swift from day one. She is really smart articulate and has a beautiful soul not to mention tons of talent and I dont think that the fame thing has affected her one bit which is the best part, she still has that thing that gave us a reason to love her. Good on you Taylor we love you.
This is so true about her; I remember having a conversation on social media with her about my students. I was quite surprised that she even took the time until I realized that she really cares about her fans. My students love her and many of them were choosing abstinence because she was their role model, and they knew that Taylor Swift was practicing abstinence too.
I love Taylor Swift People says she's a bitch and everything. She's a great person. People need to stop dropping their kids on their heads as children, cause honestly people are so stupid. Taylor does a lot of stuff for her fans, out of her own hard earned money. Life isn't either for any celebrity. She has cameras following her, flashes in her face 24/7 and people say she's a bad person. Put yourself in her shoes. She gives and gives. One day she might just say screw everyone and stop. But I guess you don't know why you have until it's gone.

She was only fifteen when se became famous, you can't expect a young girl with that kind of lifestyle to stay the same forever. I think her character is still the same... As for Miley Cyrus you know, people always say they wish she was still the old Miley but she became famous with her ROLE as Hannah Montana and not as Miley herself.. And she was even younger than Taylor.. I can only imagine what it must be like to go through puberty and just not have a normal life and have no privacy whatsoever.. But that's how I see it, I know a lot of people will disagree. Anyway I love Taylor and I think she has a great personality.
"Taylor Swift is the music industry"
Barbara was no lying. Taylor Swift is STILL the music industry.
She just rocks
Ikr??!! 😄
Aashka Shah this is your comment?
@@colleenwells3561 LMAOOO
She has a great attitude. Love her.
I find all the hate she receives from the commenters here quite comical. It's always the same too, "she's ice cold, she's a bitch, she's greedy," and there's never ANY justification to back up these claims because it doesn't exist. Yes, she came from a very privileged upbringing and for that it was easier to make her way into the music industry. So you're mad cause she didn't grow up poor? Get over it. She has integrity, an immense amount of talent, beauty, quirkiness and by the looks of it some of you can't handle that. Maybe redirect that negative energy at working on your own lives instead of slamming her because she has a great life. Grow up.
amen ppl should stop judging
Rowan Hayward haha agreed! Oh and don't forget the newest edition! "She's a snake!!!" Lol
Rowan Hayward actually the best thing i've read
Rowan Hayward This is spot on!
Rowan there is lot of HATE & Jealousy in ur Heart,GET SOME HELP.....
I love that she is in physical contact with her fans. She’s not afraid of them, and understands they make her famous and rich. They love and admire her.
I wish I could meet her
Yes
Same. I love her so much.
+Shailaya Johnson LOL
+Shailaya Johnson Taylor Swift is fake, wake up. She's actually not a nice person
Asdfasd Asdfasdf She acts like she's nice. but she isn't. She's a sociopath
Taylor is gorgeous.
***** i love her bangs
***** but she is fake. she is not a very nice person
***** she is way too skinny
***** put a shirt on you
Stop saying that she is not to skinny stop picking out things about her you probably are just jealous so don't say stuff like that
People have to understand that singing about a relationship is not singing about your ex-boyfriend. I think it's a difference. Some male singers have songs dedicated to their ex-girlfriends and why nobody talks about those?
She is singing about love. Relationships. Heartbreak. Pain. Sadness. And all of those things that come with it.
You're right. Most people don't understand that songwriters are storytellers. Just because they write a song about some kind of relationship it doesn't mean that that relationship is real. It's just like short stories or short-films. They tell stories.
kc135tube That's true. We all have to admit that her songs are mostly about love, but not about the love we see in the movies. It's real life love, and that don't give them the right to call her "crazy".
+Alejandra Escutia Angulo Yeah yeah, it's all bull shit. She creates drama to fuel her song writing. That's it.
W Shrieve Eh, no, but if that's the way you see it...
If she had no relationships she would have no material. Her relationships would still exist without her causing unnecessary drama....hence she's doing it deliberately for combination of reasons. One of those reasons being....writing material and screaming out for attention.
“If you haven’t guessed her name by now...
You are clearly living under a VERY large rock”
Lol kinda true tho 😂😂😂
What
@@alexnguyen5898 what?
"I wanna fight double-standards. I wanna weak pink and tell you how I feel about politics. And those things doesn't have to cancel each other out. I still wanna have a sharp pen, a thin skin, and open heart."
1989 truly was something else. She’s a bigger artist now in 2023/24, but this was truly her biggest album and her biggest album era.
i don’t think people understand how talented this woman is. yes she was a huge fan base, but to outsiders, she’s this crazy dramatic person who only cares about ex boyfriends. in reality, she’s a smart, articulate, creative and talented artist who is someone the world has never seen before.
Taylor is getting better every year. Her songwriting is phenomenal with catch lyrics. Sexism is not going to stop her one bit.
''Her songwriting is phenomenal'' Its cheesy pop shit actually written for mass consumption for retards.
Go listen to Leonard Cohen or Bob Dylan.
I have every Dylan studio albums. Bob Dylan is the greatest.
JameGumbsMigraines. Well obviously you haven't heard her older songs
Dylan and Cohen: two of the WORST vocalists ever to record. Stop pretending you're a music snob.
If I was a man, I'd be the man
stream The Man
here after the release of evermore, and yes, she is still indeed the music industry.
And now she's won three more Grammys! #proudswiftie ❤️
That makes 10! :3
Yes! #Swiftieforeverandalways
Now she has 11, 3 of them are album of the year
Now She conquered the world
"I'm really happy and I'm really protective of that." No wonder she writes such great songs! Everything that comes out of her mouth is poetic
Good for her she is an inspiration to young and old!
i just realized that singers like usher write more love songs than taylor swift yet never get called desperate. it is a double standard i just noticed
Taylor's growing on me.
The world desperately needs a role model like Taylor. As a senior, I see a moral decline in our society perpetuated by young "adults". Taylor is a breath of fresh air and a classy lady. I'm so glad that she is so willing to give so much of herself for the general welfare of all of us. Taylor is a poster child for human kindness. Bravo, Taylor!!!
Love Taylor, she is a genuine loving person
I wonder of Barbra Walter's knew that her line would be a staple peice in every swiftie fancam
"Taylor swift IS the music industry"
Phil Collins's first solo album was inspired by and written about his divorce. No one complained that he was over sharing. I think Taylor Swift is great.
"You have clearly been under a very large rock." 😂😂 AHAHAHAHA
Can't believe I met this lady I love her so much
+Dana Urban Really??!! So lucky!
Yeah
+Dana Urban Taylor Swift is fake, wake up
Yeah okay you r
+Asdfasd Asdfasdf You're fake too:)
I used to consider myself a casual fan. I’m 53yo. Most of my favorite artists are my age or older. Then I got to see her this past June in Minneapolis. She’s an awesome singer and she puts on the greatest performance I’ve ever seen. Thank you, Taylor.
TAYLOR SWIFT IS THE MUSIC INDUSTRY
Taylor Swift is one of my favorite pop artist
Shes the most beautiful woman in the world. Imo
No
8 years later and she's STILL the music industry
As usual the most beautiful singer forever ...
Taylor Swift. My mother taught me to not ever lie that honest truth always prevails.
Seeing some comments saying Taylor doesn't write songs by herself and I am like *facepalm* they are just pathetic bias and ignorant people.
Taylor Swift writes 'Speak Now' album all by herself and that album also won Grammys. Also, songwriter association gave her the songwriter of the year awards like 5 years in a row.
Everyone who has worked with her praised her a lot. Ryan Tedler said he has never met anyone who can write songs so quickly like her and called her a prodigy. Imogen Heap said she had prejudged her, but after working with Taylor, she had to change her mind. Because Taylor can write great songs and knows what could become a hit.
ok
❤️❤️❤️
When men write songs with other people it's seen as them collaborating, but when women do it's because "they need help" or "can't write a song on their own".
Her fans are everybody... How could you not love her, if not for her music, for the great person that she is!
I hear The Man here! Anyone else watching this in 2019?
One of her most iconic interviews: naming “Taylor Swift is the music industry” RIP Barbara Walters
Never forget what she said Taylor Swift is the music industry. RIP
What a lovely person she is.
Taylor is so well spoken, honest, genuine, and sincere. She only wants the best for everyone around her and puts so much work and talent into her career and she is absolutely amazing.
I love that about her, needing to stay grounded.
yUP
"This is definitely the highlight of my senior year"
This is why I love her she's so cute
Never knew anything about her and not a fan of her music, but do respect she writes her own music. Clicked because Barbara. RIP Barbara
this interview will always be iconic
SHE IS A VERY STRONG UNIVERSAL INTELLIGENT FORCE..
I love how she admits that her life isn't normal. Most celebrities say they want a "normal life". You can try to have a normal life but that's not what comes with the territory of putting yourself out there.
Taylor Swift is so awesome as a singer and to her fans as well. She has soared big time in 2023 and she is now a billionare.. she didn't let fame get into her head... Everyone loves her. I can see why
I would honestly start crying if I met Taylor. I’d feel like I’m meeting a best friend. She’s been a part of my life since I was like 8. She’s traveled through my life ever since. Her music has made my day better, and made me bawl my eyes out when I needed to. Ugh! I love her so much :)
I like her a lot more as a person than a singer. I may not be a Taylor swift fan but she really does deserve to be a female legend.
+Waleed Arif Do any of you people understand the definition of a "legend"? Wow. How stupid can young people be today?????
+ann landers When he used the word " legend " , it perfectly describe Swift's success. I don't really care for the girl myself , but it's nice that she's doing well in her career. Quit being rude.
I love Taylor swift her music is catchy she's pretty the hell why not
R.I.P. Barbara Walters. We'll always know her as the iconic woman who only spat facts: Taylor Swift IS the music industry
Taylor Swift IS the music industry.
I wish that people could realize how much she's intelligent and brave young woman
How can you not love her?! She is so sweet and mature ❤️
This made me cry. I love her so much. She is the only one I can have my little sisters listen to her music without worrying about explicit content. I have posters in my room. 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
She was so adorable in 2014. She is more adult now. I admire her even more now for calling out that pervert DJ.
and she is still THE music industry
What a smart young lady and a great example for young girls. I hope she has many more years of success!
R.I.P
we thank you for your service 💕
What a creative, intelligent, beautiful women! Class Act!!
So interesting you want to get to know her. 🌟
LOVE LOVE LOVE and I'm in my 70s! ❤❤❤
I wanna go to Taylor swifts house😩 is that creepy😳
Not at all😂
hey that's not creepy! i wanna go too! she has cats!
I wanna go as well, I have so much to say to her, stupid distance lol.
Not at all😂
Mandy A. NOPE I really really want to go to her house!
Rest in peace Barbara 🙏🙏🙏
watching this iconic interview during folklore era is a mood
Taylor is a gift to the world. Her spirit and talent are unmatched!!!!!!!🎵🎶❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Just realized the chorus of welcome to new york is all the same note. So many of her songs sound similar to me. Her voice isn’t remarkable, but it’s instantly identifiable, which any singing star needs to succeed. She’s drop-dead gorgeous and tall and leggy and really nice. And she’s generous.
LOVE Taylor and her influence on our youth. Had the BEST time taking my daughter back to Arrowhead stadium in my hometown to see her this past summer. Keep it up Taylor, we think you ROCK! ❤🎶
Not really sure but it seems like many overly analyze Taylor Swift's lyrics as being connected to a certain guy and bash her for sharing, but not for other female singers ??
Perhaps because she's had high-profile relationships ? hmm
RIP Barbara Walters
We Swifties will remerber your legacy.
She is the sweetest celebrity in the world.
Im 47 now but I loved Taylor Swift from day one. She is really smart articulate and has a beautiful soul not to mention tons of talent and I dont think that the fame thing has affected her one bit which is the best part, she still has that thing that gave us a reason to love her. Good on you Taylor we love you.
it will always make me smile how the biggest star in music right now is a woman
She is freaking everything ❤
What a good human!
Taylor Swift Is The Music Industry For All Around The World
What an angel!
Truly said, "Taylor Swift is the Music Industry".
Taylor is the very best at what she does. Hands down. Her lyrics connect with so many people, there is no disputing this fact
She is simply awesome
TAYLOR IS MUSIC INDUSTRY.
Her Music is More than LOVE. ♡♡♡
This is so true about her; I remember having a conversation on social media with her about my students. I was quite surprised that she even took the time until I realized that she really cares about her fans. My students love her and many of them were choosing abstinence because she was their role model, and they knew that Taylor Swift was practicing abstinence too.
I'm a comic geek, and also a comic artist
And I love Taylor Swift.
RIP Barbara 🥺
This gorgeous queen is gonna be her 30 in few days... So amazing and incredible to be swiftie for this long and will be for longer and longer
I love Taylor Swift
People says she's a bitch and everything.
She's a great person. People need to stop dropping their kids on their heads as children, cause honestly people are so stupid.
Taylor does a lot of stuff for her fans, out of her own hard earned money. Life isn't either for any celebrity. She has cameras following her, flashes in her face 24/7 and people say she's a bad person. Put yourself in her shoes. She gives and gives. One day she might just say screw everyone and stop. But I guess you don't know why you have until it's gone.
