5 things you didn’t know about Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift knowledge never goes out of ‘Style.’

Erin Jensen | USA TODAY 7 hours ago

So, you think you know Taylor Swift? Perhaps you even fancy yourself the most well-versed of the Swifties. Well, we have 5 little-known facts that we recently uncovered in time for the 10-year anniversary of her self-titled debut album on Monday. And no, we didn’t have to scrounge through KimYe’s secretly recorded videos to find these. We certainly wouldn’t want to leave anyone seeing Red.

No, for our intel we went straight to the source himself, Tyler Conroy, honorary author of Taylor Swift: This is Our Song, available now. The 23-year-old singer/songwriter/blogger has seen Tom Hiddleston’s ex in concert 19 times and met her on three separate occasions. He was selected by publishing house Simon & Schuster to help with the book that he calls “100% for the fans,” which includes a surplus of colorful photos, reviews and articles from different outlets, fan Q&As, and crossword puzzles.

Without further adieu, we leave you with this formerly Blank Space that we’ve filled with Taybits.

1. Swift Has A Hidden Bathroom

In our phone chat, Conroy told us about his trip to the singer’s New York City apartment for the launch of 1989. He divulged by far the coolest thing in her pad was her secret bathroom hidden behind a bookshelf.

“There’s a handle in (the bookshelf) that you slid the door open (with), like a space where a book should be almost.”

2. She Keeps A Grammy In A Birdcage

“(Her awards are) kind of all over the house like décor,” Conroy shared. “There’s not like a shelf with them.” He said Swift kept an MTV Moonman on the fireplace, one Grammy in the bathroom, and another that she broke backstage at the ceremony in 2010 in a birdcage.

3. She’s Designed A Tattoo

The second time Conroy met Swift, he asked her to write “Fearless” on an index card so he could get the script tattooed on his foot because the message meant so much to him. After confirming this is what Conroy really wanted, he says Swift was meticulous about her penmanship. “She wrote it so slowly,” he said. “She took so much time to write it.”

4. Swift Is A Well-Meaning Interrupter

During their first meeting, Conroy was completely starstruck, so he practiced what he wanted to say for their second rendezvous at Club Red, a meet and greet-type lounge with a guest list hand-picked by Swift.

“I got to tell her my story,” Conroy shares, “and it was funny because I was telling it and she kept interjecting her thoughts and interrupting. And, my friend was like, ‘You need to just let him talk because he’s been rehearsing this like it’s a monologue in the car.’”

5. Her Choice Cocktail Is An Old Fashioned

Conroy says the libation made with sugar, bitters, and whiskey or brandy is the artist’s favorite drink.

Pop megastar Taylor Swift donates $50,000 to Seattle Symphony

tswiftdaily

From one Grammy winner to another: Taylor Swift donates $50,000 to the Seattle Symphony, inspired by its commission and performance of John Luther Adams’ award-winning “Become Ocean.”

On Thursday morning, the Seattle Symphony Orchestra announced an unexpected gift — $50,000 from country-pop superstar Taylor Swift. It was a present from one Grammy Award winner to another.

In a letter to music director Ludovic Morlot, Swift said she was inspired to donate by a recording of John Luther Adams’ Grammy-winning “Become Ocean,” which the Symphony commissioned, premiered at Benaroya Hall in 2013 and then performed at Carnegie Hall the following year as part of the Spring for Music Festival. The composition, Swift wrote, reminded her of going to her local symphony with her grandmother.

“I was thrilled to hear that Taylor was moved by ‘Become Ocean,’” Morlot said in a prepared statement. “This is a powerful piece with a unique soundscape.” The swelling, oceanic composition also won a 2014 Pulitzer Prize for music and was described by Alex Ross in the New Yorker as “magnificent” with “a sense of unwinding, of subsiding, of dissolution.”

Swift’s donation is earmarked for two Seattle Symphony programs: Link Up, a music-education program for elementary-school students — which sends teaching artists into classrooms for weekslong residencies — and its musicians’ pension fund. Link Up has an annual budget of $360,000.

Swift is known for her philanthropy, giving to disaster-relief organizations and arts education. She has donated to her old Nashville high school to renovate its auditorium, gave $100,000 to the Nashville Symphony for her 24th birthday and pledged $4 million to build a new education center at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum.

“We’re especially thankful that she wishes to support our musicians,” Morlot said, “and that she shares our belief that all people should be able to experience symphonic music.”
