Toups

I wanted Record Of The Year. Taylor and Kanye.....5 years later.

Please do not link to Hollywood Life. I hate that site with a passion!! They make so much shit up. I love that she brought Abigail. Last year she took Brit Maack, her friend since they were like 3-4 years old. I think her Grammy dress is just okay - it's more positive than negative though. At least it's not a disaster like the MMVAs. LOL. But overall she looks great. Pics inside: Hoping for Record of the Year tonight....and of course watching Taylor dance.

10 weeks at #1! I hope it can at least get one more week at #1 so 1989 can tie Fearless. Taylor Swift's '1989' Scores Milestone 10th Week at No. 1 on Billboard 200 Chart

I was hoping for a "Style" performance. I guess we'll see that at the Brit Awards instead. Also, if she was going to perform it would've been her fourth straight year. Most artists don't even get to perform two years in a row let alone three years in a row.

I won $88! Before the tournament started, I picked Serena+Djo to win. Easy money by picking the two favourites. LOL!

Taylor's twitter and instagram got hacked today and they said they had nude pics of her. This was her reponse. Anyway, she posted another great message to a young fan on tumblr. Fan: http://worldoftayswift.tumblr.com/post/108974934975/taylorswift-is-so-amazing-i-love-everything-she Taylor's reponse: http://taylorswift.tumblr.com/post/109275791245/worldoftayswift-worldoftayswift He replied by saying, "Im gonna read this every time I get upset." I got excited too when I first heard it on the radio (last week) because I didn't expect it to hear it. Can't wait for the video!

"1989" just passed 4 million in album sales in just 12 weeks - it's the fastest to reach 4 million since Usher's "Confessions" in 2004. It took "Red" and Speak Now" 69 weeks to reach 4 million; "Fearless" took 50 weeks; and her debut album took 125 weeks. It's going to beat "Red" next week or the week after.

I think those songs are the next most radio-friendly songs. She doesn't really put out any slower songs, so I'm kind of hoping she changes it up a bit and puts out Clean or This Love. But the percentages of her doing that aren't high. I think it will either be Bad Blood, Out of the Woods or I Know Places. The 4th and 5th single should be interesting since no one knows for sure and there's no big consensus. Blank Space and Style obvious choices right away.

Yes! Give in! Did you see this on SNL from a couple months ago? "Dammit, she got me!" - That's bascially all the new people buying her albums. LOL Fearless is great too. It won the Grammy for Album of The Year in 2010. Just go all out and buy all her albums. And yes, always get the deluxe/platinum versions. I love Red so much - it's a great mixture of pop, pop-rock, pop-country. I especially love the sad/heart-breaking songs on Red: All Too Well, Come Back...Be Here, I Almost Do, The Moment I Knew. And Begin Again is one of my favs too. It was obvious Style would be the next single. Taylor performed it at the Victoria Secret Fashion Show and it was one of the best selling songs on iTunes from the album. It won't be released until February 10 but some radio stations started playing it last week and it's already rising on the charts. I will be shocked if the song doesn't hit #1 on the Hot 100. And I'm assuming she'll be performing it at the Grammys. It looks like Taylor is continuing to give gifts to her fans and will be (might be) up to Valentines Day: http://www.buzzfeed.com/kristinharris/taylor-swift-sent-fan-money-to-pay-student-loans#.un8GdkdyZ3

You jinxed it!!!! LOL

I'm so glad you like it! I listen to its entirety too. I think the only song that could be considered "deep" or "complex" is 'Clean' - I think that's lyrically the best written song on the album. I also think the lyrics for 'This Love' and 'You Are In Love' are pretty good for love songs. Same here. I did that when the album came out. It was, and still is, the song I listen to the most.

Santa Swift The fans who received the gift packages made this message for her: http://lyyssaaaa13.tumblr.com/post/106028163974/dear-taylor-thank-you-so-much-for-all-of-the It's a big picture, so I'll spoiler tag it. "DEAR TAYLOR THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL OF THE BEAUTIFUL GIFTS BUT THE BEST GIFT YOU GAVE US IS YOUR BEAUTIFUL FRIENDSHIP !

#1 in 2014. 3.66 million in 9 weeks. Taylor Swift's '1989' Beats 'Frozen' As Top Selling Album of 2014

You changed your avatar! LOL I'm so happy her singles are doing so well. She was always an albums artist first, and now she's both a singles and albums artist. 1989 has a chance to beat the Frozen Soundtrack for #1 in 2014 - we'll find out Wednesday. And I think it's going to beat her Red and Speak Now albums.

Don't know. I thought it was just a poop emoji. Taylor brought Sam out as a special guest at one of her concerts in February and they sang "Money on My Mind" together.

Yeah, I would probably die. LOL It's hard to get her attention though. I mean there's so many more hardcore fans than I am. A few weeks ago, this one guy on tumblr made a video of himself acting out/singing parts of every song on the album. Taylor saw it and loved it and said they must meet. So last week for the Jingle Ball concert, she flew him and his family (and other fans too) to meet her at the concert. Some people are just lucky. From Taylor's birthday party. Jay Z, Beyonce, Timberlake, and Taylor......the four biggest stars in music right now. Talk about a lot of power in a picture. And apparently Jay Z is a mannequin. LOL

Album of the Year nomination!

Billboard Woman of the Year Taylor Swift on Writing Her Own Rules, Not Becoming a Cliche and the Hurdle of Going Pop This is going to be one of my favourite interviews of hers. She really shows her savviness and how much in control she has on her own career. It's interviews like this one where I always go, "Wow, she's such an impressive young woman." You can see why she's at the top of the game. My favourite parts:

I did not expect Song of the Year so that is a pleasant surprise! Record of the Year nod was obvious though - I want this award most out of the three nominations because I think it's one of Max Martin's best productions.

MissLPA, I get the feeling you want to know Taylor more. LOL I could post more videos/interviews. I really like that cover. I didn't like much of Vance Joy's album but Riptide is the best song on the album. He's going to be opening for Taylor so at least I'll like one song of his. Time Magazine's Top 10 Songs and Albums of 2014

Couldn't find a high quality video on youtube (I think they're being taken down), so I'll just post gifs. Loved her performance of Blank Space! And it wouldn't be an awards if there weren't shots of her dancing.

Oh, I also say, "Cause we're young and we're restless," instead of "Cause we're young and we're reckless." And now know will too.

I now say "Starbucks lovers" ever since I read about that. I can't get it out my head so I just go with it.

The song is written from the perspective of the character the tabloids have created. This is one of the things Taylor does very well - taking a negative situation and turning it into a massive hit. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oz9wwyLjBb8
