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 with the sibling rockers finally seeing eye to eye, the string of shows are even set to eclipse Taylor Swift's recent Eras tour - which took the world by storm and saw over 4.3 million tickets sold - music expert Kevin McManus predicts.
Anticipating a frenzy, he told ITV: "I think people forget but the two Knebworth shows they did almost 4% of the population tried to get tickets.They sold out 250,000 tickets, but it was a ridiculous amount of people who tried to buy tickets, they were that huge. "But this, because people have been talking about it for the past decade, it's going to be even bigger.
I think everybody is going to try and get a ticket.Taylor Swift was obviously the big deal this summer, I think it's going to absolutely dwarf that, just because it's them and there's that talk." The Manchester group made waves in the nineties but split in 2009 after a backstage row in Paris and have not played together since.
