Taylor Swift Latest Short HairStyle Photos 01
For such a young woman, Taylor Swift holds quite a bit of power. Not only is she one of the most gifted songwriters in the history of country music—but her stage presence only continues to improve with each tour. This month, fans and fellow music industry folk will be filling the Bridgestone Arena for two sold out shows on September 16 and 17. Playing a show for thousands of screaming fans is something she’s used to—but in front of her peers and in her home town it’s even sweeter. With Sparks Fly, she hypnotizes the audience both with music and the excitement of full stage production.

When not on stage, she’s writing songs, spending time with her friends and posing as the face of Cover Girl cosmetics. Not such a bad gig for a girl who’s barely legal. Add a new penthouse and a slew of awards to the mix and it gets even better. In fact, early this month, the committee for the Symphony Ball (one of Nashville’s most prestigious events) will announce their plans to honor her with the Harmony Award at this year’s ball (in December). This incredible honor only proves just how respected her talents are by her fans, peers and members of her home town community.

The Grammy Award winning, singing, songwriting starlet was inspired to create the name of her fragrance from the song “Enchanted” on her current album, Speak Now. “I wrote the lyric, ‘I’m wonderstruck, blushing all the way home,’ for the song ‘Enchanted’ about the first time you meet someone. A fragrance can help shape someone’s first impression and memory of you. It’s exciting to think that Wonderstruck will play a role in creating some of those memories,” she said in a release.

Taylor Swift said, I'm writing you on a summer afternoon in Nashville. All the idealistic markers of a perfect day are presenting themselves right now in this moment. I mean, we're talking chirping birds, blinding sunshine, a just-the-right-amount breeze.. There's the distant sound of power washing from someone else's deck and my feet are up on the patio table. I just ate a really awesome sandwich. Such a simple, good day. And so I just wanted to say hi.

Taylor Swift said, I go back on the road tonight and this weekend we'll play in Greensboro, Knoxville, and Louisville. And I guess I should just tell you up front that playing shows on this tour is the best time I've ever had onstage. The crowds we've been playing for have been so unbelievable.. The kind of crowds that jump up and down the entire show, making our view from the stage look like a giant ocean of dancing, jumping people. These are the kinds of crowds that sing the words louder and more passionately than I ever could've imagined. And to have a show that includes ballerinas and fireworks and entire scenery changes.

Taylor Swift said, it's thrilling for me. My band and I have already come away with memories to last a lifetime, and it's not even halfway done yet! The other night, we were playing our first of two shows at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Massachusetts. I'm all the way at the end of the stadium, playing "Fearless", and I swear as soon as I sang the words "With you I'd dance in a storm in my best dress, fearless"… I felt a drop of rain hit me. Then there was another one, then there was another. And then it turned into an absolute downpour. Everyone is soaking wet. And at this point in the show, about halfway through our set, this fear came over me that everyone was going to leave the concert. I tried to push it way back into the back of my mind and just kept playing, and to my surprise, the strangest thing happened. No one left. Instead, this ocean of people in front of us just started dancing even more, screaming even louder… And that night I actually got to dance in a storm with them. In my best dress. I'll never forget it.

Taylor Swift said, Living on my own felt like a really natural transition. I moved out when I was 20, so it was a really good age for me, and a really good time in my life to do it.

Taylor Swift said, I moved out and planned the house and did all the construction while I was making the album. So I’d go and record, then in my time I’d go to the construction site and see everything. It was fun putting it all together.

Taylor Swift said, I see my parents almost every day when I’m home. I love them; I think they’re really great people, and smart and fun. With my brother off at college, when we get the four of us all together, it’s like this rare, amazing thing. Having that be a new dynamic in our family is really kind of cool. It used to be that Austin was in high school, I was 18, we all lived at home, and we saw each other every day. Now, when we all get together, it’s really special.

Taylor Swift said, The best thing about being on your own is having that sanctuary, that home, that place that’s yours. When you go all over the world, you can buy something and know exactly where you’re going to put it. I love collecting things from traveling the world and going on tour, buying little things here and there that remind me of the places we’ve been.

Taylor Swift said, That’s a very funny way to think of it. The world tour was just unreal. It was so fast-paced. We saw so many incredible places. It was like this whirlwind of city after city after city. But somehow they were all so different from each other that we would go out exploring.

Taylor Swift said, I’m so stoked that I got to go to Norway and stand on a dock and look out over this icy fjord. And going from the hotel to the airplane in a gondola in Venice. I really, really want to go to South America. As of right now, we don’t have anything carved in stone, but I’d really like to go.

Taylor Swift said, The only thing I'm thinking about is the person I'm writing about. It's a little message in a bottle. Sometimes, the purpose of writing it in the first place is what the person will do when they hear it. The fact that other people come into the equation, that happens 50 steps down the line. Yes. For some reason, when you are with some people, you'd rather be closer to them than further away. You want to know everything about them. This crazy, immeasurable, intangible, magical chemistry happens with certain people. When you have that, you have to know how rare it is. If you let it slip away, it's such a shame.

Taylor Swift said, I would never be presumptuous enough to think I can do whatever I want, but I don’t really know when it gets written about and when it doesn’t. I just try to keep that out of it. The more you think of it, like your personal life affecting your career, or people thinking you’re with someone and what does everyone think of that, that’s letting too many people into the whole equation. It’s whether you like a person or not. If something has affected me deeply, I'm going to write about it. I don't put much of a filter on. I've written songs that were just anger rants. I don't usually play them for anyone, but it's nice to write them and rhyme that person's name with literally every horrible thing you can think of.

Taylor Swift said, The most talented people I know and some of the most fascinating people I've met were the most uncool kids in their school. The trials and tribulations in your life make you stronger. If I had the girls in front of me now who got up and left the lunch table when I sat down in fourth, fifth or sixth grade — they did it a million times — I'd give them hugs. The biggest lesson of all is that I never want to make anyone else feel that way.

Taylor Swift said, I can totally go out in public. It's a more social experience now, but it's all good. I never want to be weird about privacy or look at things from an unhealthy perspective, like people coming up and complimenting me on my music is a bad thing. And I make a lot of new friends. I go walking all around my neighborhood and all around Vanderbilt University, and I've met some really cool people.

Taylor Swift said, I don’t wear dark sunglasses and hats and put my hair up. That disguise may work for some people, but then there’s going to be somebody that recognizes me, and their immediate opinion of me is going to be, “Oh my God, she’s trying to hide from us.” That just makes you seem kind of stuck up.

Taylor Swift said, No. I get suspicious whenever they come around Nashville, because I’m like, “What is being written about me right now? What exciting thing do people think is going on in my life?” I don’t get a lot of it, so it never feels like I’m trapped. You can find ways to escape from them. I don’t really think about it very much until I have to deal with it.
Taylor Swift Latest Short HairStyle Photos 22
Taylor Swift said, Is it weird to say yes, it is everything that I wanted? I have the comfort of knowing that if I write something and I love it, other people will hear it some day. I didn't always know that. I used to get finished writing a song when I was 12, 13, 14 and 15 and think to myself, “Well, no one's going to hear it.” That was a sad thought. Healing people. Being able to heal people would be an amazing superpower. You don’t really need mind-reading. If you had mind-reading, you’d go crazy from what people actually think of you. That was what I thought of first, but I couldn’t handle mind-reading. Nobody ever give me mind-reading!

Taylor Swift said, The one thing I’d most like to remember is how much fun we’ve had through this whole thing. A lot of my heroes that I’ve met have said, “Don’t let it pass you by. It’s going to move really fast, and it’s going to be hard to remember a lot of the details. Don’t let it pass you by. “ This group of people that I’m with, my band and I, we certainly haven’t let it pass us by. We’ve had amazing celebrations. There’s so much love that goes around here and so much appreciation on a daily basis that we get to actually do what we love doing. I think that’s what I’m most proud of, that none of the people around me have taken anything that’s happened to us for granted.

Taylor Swift said, As far as what I would most like to forget, if I didn’t know better, I’d say certain relationships. But I know that I’m going to end up writing about them and learning from them and learning lessons. So even the worst things that happen to you end up being something. Some of the most pain and rejection that I’ve ever felt produced a song called Mean that I can’t stop smiling when I’m singing. So seeing that happen makes me feel very strange about regrets and having them, because a lot of times they end up being the best thing that happens to you. You just don’t know it at the time.

Taylor Swift said, Oh, yeah. We’re playing in eight stadiums in this tour. I’d really like for those shows to have people walking away really, really entertained. When you have that many people together, that’s just crazy to me, that so many people want to go see one concert. So I really hope that they like what they see and they like what they hear. I hope that they feel like we really, really tried to put on a great show for them. Because that’s all I’m thinking about.

Taylor Swift said, Oh, yeah! That’s been a really fun experience. I think they’re going to put together a really, really beautiful movie. It’s a wonderful story, and I love having a part in it. This is really wonderful, because the voiceover stuff you can do anywhere, in any studio. It just takes a few hours, every time you go in and do it. And I love the part, because it wasn’t in the original book, The Lorax. But Dr. Seuss wrote the book for his wife, and his wife’s name was Audrey. The Audrey character is a girl who’s sort of the catalyst for the main character, Ted, to save these truffula trees. She’s obsessed with them and she loves them and she tells them the story of what they are. They’re this forgotten thing that no one in society knows about – trees. People have long forgotten trees except for her.
