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.
Todd Spangler NY Digital Editor Vice Media Group, still grappling with the ripple effects of its bankruptcy filing and aftermath, has tapped Mike Lang, a 30-year-plus veteran of TV, film and game industries who was one of Hulu’s founding executives, as interim executive chairman.
Lang joins as executive chairman of the Brooklyn-based media company after serving as an adviser to Fortress Investment Group, one of Vice Media’s former lenders.
Fortress, along with Soros Fund Management and Monroe Capital, acquired the company in a deal worth $350 million after Vice filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and in July 2023.
Lang comes on board after the exit of Hozefa Lokhandwala as co-CEO earlier this month, leaving Bruce Dixon the sole CEO. In memo to staff Monday, Dixon wrote that Lang will help Vice Media in its ongoing restructuring efforts aimed at getting Vice Media on the path toward “financial stability and future growth.” Lang most recently was CEO of Pixel United, a U.K.-based mobile-first games company, which is part of publicly traded Aristocrat Leisure based in Australia.
