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.

(And don’t worry, not everything includes avocado.)When the pandemic hit, Gerard was in Los Angeles, smack dab in the middle of the book tour for her second cookbook, Super Simple.
She headed back home to the mountains of Colorado, where she was raised with her seven siblings. But instead of hitting pause as the world shut down, Gerard went full steam ahead, guns blazing. “It was honestly the craziest time,” she says of churning out endless recipes for her followers who were newly home-bound, waiting with their mouths watering.
