Something About HER
Taylor Alison Swift (born December 13, 1989) is an American singer-songwriter.[1][2][3] Raised in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, she moved to Nashville, Tennessee, at the age of 14 to pursue a career in country music. She signed with the independent label Big Machine Records and became the youngest songwriter ever signed by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house. The release of Swift's eponymous debut album in 2006 marked the start of her career as a country music singer. Her third single, "Our Song", made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number-one song on the Hot Country Songs chart.
Taylor Swift is popular because she makes great music and has cultivated an image that appeals to a broad range of people.Taylor got her start in country music, writing simple but catchy songs that everyone can identify with. Starting out in country was smart, because it meant that at a young age, she didn't have to subject herself to appealing to the masses and the pop music industry. She could write and perform the songs she wanted.

One of Swift's earliest musical memories is listening to her maternal grandmother, Marjorie Finlay, sing at church. In her youth, Finlay was a television host in Puerto Rico, and performed in operas in Thailand and Singapore. As a very young child, Swift enjoyed Disney movie soundtracks: "My parents noticed that, once I had run out of words, I would just make up my own."Later, her parents exposed her to artists such as James Taylor, Simon & Garfunkel and Def Leppard.Swift has said she owes her confidence to her mother, who helped her prepare for class presentations as a child. She also attributes her "fascination with writing and storytelling" to her mother.

Thematically, The Guardian noted that Swift was "fantastically good at regarding teenage life with a kind of wistful, sepia-toned nostalgia" over the course of her first two albums.[312] New York Magazine remarked that many singer-songwriters have made great records as teens, but "none made great records so explicitly about their teens... Her nearest antecedent might be sixties-era Brian Wilson, the one true adolescent auteur before she came along."[313] Comparisons have also been drawn with Janis Ian.[304] Fairytale imagery featured on Swift's second album, Fearless. She explored the disconnect "between fairy tales and the reality of love".[314][315] Her later albums address more adult relationships.[305] In addition to romance and love, Swift's songs have discussed parent-child relationships ("The Best Day", "Never Grow Up", "Ronan"), friendships ("Fifteen", "Breathe", "22", "Bad Blood"),[316][317] alienation ("The Outside", "A Place in This World", "Tied Together with a Smile", "Mean", "Shake It Off"), fame ("The Lucky One", "I Know Places"), and career ambitions ("Change", "Long Live").[266][318]

Swift has high Q Score and Davie-Brown Index ratings, reflecting a high level of public awareness (90 percent) and popularity (80 percent) in the U.S.[353] The singer considers it her "responsibility" to be conscious of her influence on young fans.[354] A Rolling Stone journalist who profiled Swift in 2009 remarked upon her polite manners: "If this is Swift's game face, it must be tattooed on because it never drops."[355][356]

Acting

Swift made her acting debut in a 2009 episode of CBS's CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, playing a rebellious teenager.[401] The New York Times noted that the character allowed Swift to be "a little bit naughty, and credibly so".[402] Rolling Stone felt she "held her own" and "does a good job with the script"[403] while the Chicago Tribune said she "acquits herself well".[404] Later that year, Swift both hosted and performed as the musical guest for an episode of Saturday Night Live.[405] Entertainment Weekly described her as "this season's best Saturday Night Live host so far", noting that she "was always up for the challenge, seemed to be having fun, and helped the rest of the cast nail the punchlines". Proving "admirably resilient in a wide variety of sketch roles", she "inspired more of a female, girly-in-the-best-sense sensibility in SNL than it's shown since the Tina Fey-Amy Poehler days".[406]
