Taylor Swift

Taylor Alison Swift is an American singer-songwriter. She is known for narrative songs about her personal life, which have received widespread media coverage. At age 14, Swift became the youngest artist signed by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house and, at 15, she signed her first record deal.

Her 2006 eponymous debut album was the longest-charting album of the 2000s in the US. Its third single, "Our Song", made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number-one song on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. Swift's second album, Fearless, was released in 2008.

Buoyed by the pop crossover success of the singles "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me", it became the US' best-selling album of 2009 and was certified diamond in the US. The album won four Grammy Awards, and Swift became the youngest Album of the Year winner.

However, there is a very good reason as expert Justin Croft explained on Antiques Roadshow. He was initially unimpressed telling guest Helen: "These are possibly the worst condition I've seen on the Roadshow." However, he discovered the Chamber of Secrets was a first-edition - and both had been signed by the author.

The book's owner explained: "Growing up, Harry Potter meant an awful lot to me and my family. "The Harry Potter paperback I have there I was given in my stocking one year for Christmas and when I started reading it I couldn't put it down. "When the second book came out JK Rowling came to the Edinburgh book festival and she did a signing afterwards.
