Biography of Taylor Swift


            Taylor Alison Swift is a twenty-five-year-old American singer-songwriter. She was born in Reading, Pennsylvania on December 13, 1989. She was raised in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania with her younger brother, Austin, and her two parents, Andrea and Scott. In 2005, she caught the attention of Scott Borchetta, a Dreamworks executive who was ready to start his own record label, at an industry showcase in Bluebird Café in Nashville. Luckily, Scott started his record label, Big Machine Records, and she was one of the label's first signings. Taylor started working on her first ever album, Taylor Swift, shortly after signing. It was released on October 24, 2006. Since Big Machine Records was still not very popular, Taylor and her mom, Andrea, stuffed albums in envelopes and sent them to local radios. .
             Taylor released her second album, Fearless, on November 11, 2008. She wrote seven of the songs alone, and co-wrote the remaining six with Liz Rose and Colbie Caillat. The ablum's lead single, Love Story, was released in September 2008. It became the 2nd best-selling country single of all time and it peaked number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart. She then released four more singles, White Horse, You Belong with Me, Fifteen and Fearless. Luckily, You Belong with Me became the album's highest-charting single. The album then debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 Album Chart, and it sold 8.6M copies worldwide. Taylor went on her first headlining tour, the Fearless Tour. After two years, she got four grammy awards, from a total of eight nominations.
             Taylor serves as an inspiration for me to never give up on my dreams, no matter how farfetched they are. She never stopped writing songs, even when she got bullied for doing so. She didn't stop. She kept going. That's pretty amazing, for me. She was also bullied by the media because by 2008, she had a total of 6 boyfriends. People called her, "heartbreaker," and, "singer with no talent at all because she only writes songs about her breakups.
