Hey Everyone! I am so sorry for the slow updates, I’ve been really busy in school. I won’t be giving up this site. Anyway, for the VOA News, it did an interview with Taylor. You can watch the video interview by clicking here or you can read a part of the interview below.
You might find it surprising that one of music’s brightest new stars once found it hard to fit in. Taylor Swift says growing up in Pennsylvania was not easy since no one wanted to be her friend. Only after her family moved to Nashville, Tennessee, was she able to be herself. She is on her first headlining tour to promote her second CD, Fearless.
Swift sold more records in 2008 than any other music performer. Selling 7 million albums is a career accomplishment very few artists can claim. Taylor achieved this milestone in only two years. She has written or co-written all of her songs, and now at age 19 is headlining one of the biggest concert tours of the year.
“It just makes me so happy. It makes me so happy to be out there knowing that every single person in the audience, you know, bought a ticket with my name on it.”
When she was 14, Taylor’s family moved from Pennsylvania to a suburb of Nashville, Tennessee, so she could be closer to the country music industry. She was signed to a publishing deal with Sony/ATV, making her one of the youngest writers they ever hired.
Taylor says her experience of not fitting in at school helped fuel her music career
“I would write every single day after school. It was a job, you know. I was … I was a paid to be songwriter when I was 14.”Conitnue reading here
