(Week 14)
Hey guys! Today, I will be posting about an extremely famous artist, Taylor Swift! I'm sure many of you out there absolutely love her music, and if you have never listened to her before, it's time you did! Also, I have done up a cover of one of her most popular songs, Love Story! Check it out below later!

Taylor Swift is a young artist who has released three studio albums thus far, with her fourth one due to be released in October 2012. Her songs are mainly of the country, country pop and pop rock genres.

Here's some fun and interesting facts about Taylor that you may have never known:

1. Her middle name is "Alison". Yeap. Taylor Alison Swift.
2. Her favourite number is 13. She considers it her lucky number (Her birthday is on 13th December, 1989).
3. She is super tall, standing at 5'11 inches. That means she's 180cm!
4. She failed her driving test three times, before finally obtaining it in tenth grade (16 years old).
5. She once dated Taylor Lautner, a famous actor from The Twilight Series, and even wrote a song, Back To December, apologizing for their breakup.
6. When she's bored, she likes to conduct random baking experiments in the kitchen (okay what...).
7. She used to keep practicing the guitar until her fingers bled!
8. She was bullied in school. Her song, The Outside, from her first album, was about the hardships she endured. (So if you're being bullied, don't worry, you could be famous one day too!)
9. Ever heard of Kanye West? Well I despise him, and here's why:

   Imagine if you got upstaged like that!
10. Her long dress got stuck when she walked down some steps of her two-leveled stage while she was singing Love Story at a live concert. See the whole funny scene here (see 1m22s):
    

Love Story is one of her most famous songs! Here's a piano cover of it as promised!
