Artikel om Taylor i brittiska The Telegraph
The night my dreams came true – cheek-to-cheek with Taylor SwiftReaders may remember me recently opining on the coruscating genius that is singer / songwriter / all-round goddess Taylor Swift, after witnessing her sell-out RED Tour at the O2 Arena. Next day, Ms Swift ascended still higher in the adoration stakes by becoming The Only Celebrity Ever To Express Gratitude. Team Taylor modestly added that I might not want to attend the show again, but, if I did, she’d love to say thank you.This presented the immediate political problem of whom to take with me, the Swift fan base being vast. I was immediately assailed by legions of nippers, twentysomethings, thirtysomethings, men and women of my own vintage, and assorted pensioners all claiming that their lives would be incomplete without the requisite Taylorian blessing.

The week previously I had offered Issy, eight, a theoretical situation in which my drowning overboard the Taylor Swift clipper carrying us to the O2 might lead to a meeting with her idol. She claimed she would rather keep me alive, but there was a discernible shiftiness about the eyes.

Taylor Swift says inspiring people is a "natural extension" of her.
The 24-year-old singer is currently in the midst of the Europe stint of her RED tour. Her songs are known for being heart-felt and giving encouragement to fellow females during difficult times.
Although she looks to her own experiences when coming up with songs, Taylor is pleased others can relate.
"I don't have any of that in my head when I write them. It's maybe a natural extension of me talking about not taking cr*p from people that others might take inspiration from that," she replied when British magazine Look asked whether she thinks her songs can inspire women to be strong and determined.
"That would make me very happy if my songs can reach out to people and lead them to do something positive... My songwriting will always have a confessional aspect, because I naturally draw on my life and my stories. I don't want to keep repeating the same things, though - you want to be able to explore those themes in different ways and have something new to say."
When she isn't performing Taylor tries to go about leading a relatively normal life. However she understands the responsibilities that come with her star status and works hard to put them into action.
"Shopping and going out of the house is a social occasion for me. I know if I leave the house, I have to be ready to deal with meeting fans," she explained.
"I need to make sure I'm not in a bad mood, because it's important to me to have that connection with my fans. I'd never want to appear anything less than happy to meet the people who support me. I'll never take that for granted."

Seventy-five years ago this spring, the first issue of Glamour featured actress Ann Sheridan on the cover. She was 24, as Taylor Swift is now. Men were into her (Sheridan once reportedly got 250 marriage proposals in a week), women liked her style, and she was known for that rare celebrity blend of sincerity and humor. Well, Swift is today’s quintessential Glamour star—and a perfect choice for this, our 75th anniversary issue.
When we met up to talk at an Italian restaurant, it had been a year since her last cover: a year in which songs like “22” had defined female culture just as powerfully as Lena Dunham’s Girls had; a year in which she first felt not just the warmth but the heat of being famous; a year of more living. I wanted to hear how she was handling it all. So we ordered lattes and settled in.

Teen Vouge intervju om KEDS
It's no secret that Taylor Swift loves a good pair of classic kicks. The songstress recently debuted her fourth collection for Keds. It's filled with fun patterns in look-at-me hues, and we can't get enough—so we went straight to the source to learn all about her brand-new line.
"When I was a little kid, I had a pair of white Keds I wore everywhere," Taylor told us. "It was a nostalgic feeling when they asked me to be the inspiration for the collection. It's cool to be part of something with such a legacy." Her latest designs are inspired by her own wardrobe, which Taylor playfully describes as a combination of Easter egg colored and nautical-inspired pieces. "There's a lot of lace, polka dots, and stripes because those are the things I wear all the time!"
The other thing Taylor wears all the time? Her signature sneaks, of course. "I wore them on the Red tour during a part of the show where I had to crowd surf into a group of dancers, jump off the stage, and run all the way across the arena," she reveals. "They were perfect!" She's also been known to sport a pair to the gym or even to the beach. "For me, it's a comfort thing," she says.

With a new album on the horizon, country-pop star takes a Hollywood detourOn an obvious, commercial level, it makes perfect sense for Taylor Swift to record end-credits for teen-targeted films. In 2012 she teamed up with T Bone Burnett and the Civil Wars for “The Hunger Games’” signature tune “Safe and Sound.” It helped lift the pic’s soundtrack to No. 10 on the Billboard chart, nabbing a Golden Globe nomination and a Grammy in the process.Late last year she partnered with Fun guitarist Jack Antonoff to pen and perform “Sweeter Than Fiction” from the Weinstein Co.’s “One Chance,” for which she’ll once again be competing for best original song at the Golden Globes.fortsätt läsa

Taylor Swift talks favorite Christmas songs, next albumYou hear music as you enter the Sunset Marquis hotel on a chilly December afternoon. You briefly think it’s a recording, but quickly realize that isn’t right. The music is too present and singular. You round the corner into an expansive suite and see Taylor Swift, playing a piano, with a roaring fire in the background. It’s like a scene from a holiday card sent by the seven-time Grammy winner rather than an actual room you can enter. You want this moment to go longer — a private show! — but she immediately bounds to her feet, full of bright energy, and says a warm hello.Some celebrities in person look like what you expect and others appear quite different; Swift looks like herself. Her outfit is purple-ish, with a long modest skirt. She glances around for a place to sit and this is a brief dilemma. She decides to ignore all the furniture and instead sits on the floor by the fireplace, asking you: Is that okay? So you both sit cross-legged by the fire. It’s all very congenial and Christmas-y, which is appropriate since you have some holiday music questions on your list. [...]
We’re here to talk about Swift’s new song “Sweeter Than Fiction,” which is accompanying the release of the heartwarming British comedy One Chance (trailer here). The film is based on the true story of an amateur opera singer who won Britain’s Got Talent. She also just received a Golden Globe nomination for the track. But we manage to get in some other questions too.Fortsätt läsa

New York Magazine: intervju
Taylor Swift worries a lot about security. It’s an understandable concern. This spring, a man was arrested in the wee hours of the morning near her estate in Watch Hill, Rhode Island. Police reportedly spotted him walking out of the ocean; he told the arresting officers he had swum two miles to meet Taylor Swift. The singer has two other homes—a modest house, which she calls a “cottage,” in Beverly Hills, and her main residence, a penthouse apartment near downtown Nashville—and her team makes every effort to keep the addresses hush-hush. But fans have a way of sniffing these things out. On a Sunday morning in late September, a 12-year-old girl and her mother, who had flown to Nashville from Connecticut to see Swift’s concert at the Bridgestone Arena the night before, walked into the lobby of her building. This was celebrity stalking at its most benign: The mom and daughter had a gift for Swift, a big container of homemade chicken soup, which they left with her doorman.
Swift needed the soup. When I arrived at her apartment later that day—my visit was scheduled—she was audibly under the weather. She looked the picture of health: She greeted me in her big, open-plan kitchen, wearing a loose-fitting white-lace frock and friendly grin. But when she spoke, what came out was a croak, a husky voice pitched about two octaves lower than Bea Arthur’s. “I made these, and I’m super-proud of them,” she said, pushing a plate of cookies across the counter. “They’re pumpkin-chocolate-chip. I didn’t cough on them, just so you know. You’re safe.”
Swift had been sick all week, fighting the kind of head cold best treated by curling up in bed with a magnum of NyQuil. She didn’t have that luxury. She’d come home to Nashville to wrap up a seven-month-long North American tour in support of her fourth album, Red, which was released in October 2012. The concert the previous evening was the final one of the tour, and the toughest. “It was a struggle,” she said. “I found it a little bit easier to sing than to talk, which was, like, a miracle.”

Taylor Swift 's little black book is full of famous names, but the singer says she's yet to meet the love of her life. The 23-year-old country singer covers the November issue of InStyle, where she shares her thoughts on romance, jealousy and more.
"I think that you can love people without it being the great love," says the country cutie. Swift credits her collaborator and friend Ed Sheeran with changing her perspective on happily ever after.
"He says there are different kinds of love: There’s physical attraction, mental attraction, and emotional attraction; there’s also comfort and obsession. You need to have all of those things in one person. You have to mentally respect them, be physically attracted, and have a comfort level. You’re obsessed with them, yet you also know they’re going to stay," she explains. "I’ve never had that in one person."
Swift’s early ideas about romance “came from a daydreamy prince-and-princess place,” she adds. But when I actually experienced it, I realized it wasn’t those things. It can be—but not always.”
The single singer notes that her taste in men is at times questionable. Still, she has faith that her Mr. Right is right around the corner.”My friends tease me about the fact that if someone seems bad or shady or like they have a secret, I find them incredibly interesting. That’s just a phase I’ve been in lately,” she tells the mag. “I don’t think this should be how I proceed in life. It’s important to be self-aware about these things because you don’t want to end up with that guy.”
And while she may be a global superstar, the multiple Grammy winner isn’t immune from being envious of other people in relationships. “I feel jealousy, but I’ve been trying to channel it into mutual admiration and inspiration,” she explains. “If someone has a really great boyfriend or career, I think, it’s cool that happens. Now I have proof it can happen. Maybe that’s out there for me someday. “
