Treats fans like the royalty they are

There’s nothing quite like Taylor’s loyal, Swifties fan base. Their unwavering love for the 32-year-old is a direct reflection of how well she treats them. Despite being one of the biggest artists of our time, Swift finds time to connect with those that support her music most through special meet-and-geets, hand-written notes and personalized gifts and donations.

Not afraid to be herself

There’s only one Taylor Swift and she’s as authentic as they come. Never shy to speak her mind, whether through music or movements, Swift stays true to her character and we wouldn’t want it any other way!

Next-level generosity

A prime example of the golden rule, Taylor puts all the positive vibes into the world and treats people with immense kindness. From her touring crew to her fans, family and friends, it seems as though Taylor’s never met a stranger and sets a high standard for love and acceptance.

Knows just what to say to the haters

She says it best in “Shake It Off,” as she sings, “Haters gonna hate… players gonna play… and breakers gonna break.” Taylor has had her fair share of haters throughout her career and she seems to have the perfect “eyeroll” to “stand-up-for-yourself” ratio that we just can’t get enough of. You go girl!

Her 'girl gang' rolls deep

So, Taylor may have some big-name besties but their friendship remains relatable as they’re always there for on another throughout life’s moments. Memories shared via social media with her girlfriends like Abigail Anderson, Selena Gomez, Blake Lively and Martha Hunt prove she’s a girl’s girl and the kind of bestie you’d want to have for life.

Keeps us guessing

Taylor’s creativity goes far beyond many as she is known for hiding hints and clues within her music — something she refers to as “Easter eggs.” The eggs often lead to big announcements like new music, fresh collabs or big tours. Swifties have cracked some major codes over the years — pretty impressive!

She goes all out

No matter what aspect of her career she dives into, you can count on Taylor to give it her all. From captivating music videos to intricate tour sets, wardrobe and fan interaction there is no halfway for this record-breaking musician. Her art is a true representation of her beautifully crafted imagination and she welcomes us in with open arms.

Superstar collabs

Taylor knows people who know people who know people which results in some of the best musical collabs ever. From Ed Sheeran to Brendon Urie, Tim McGraw, Bon Iver and more Taylor always keeps us guessing on who we can expect her to join forces with next!

Writes her own music

To say Taylor has a way with words would be a complete understatement. Taylor has changed lives with her entire creative process as she has had a hand in writing all her songs and even has complete control over everything from album art, touring sets and wardrobe selections. Now, that’s what we call a #GirlBoss!

Epic live shows

Using “concert” or “show” seems like an undersell when referring to the experience Swift serves up on the road. She has a special way of allowing fans to completely escape the stresses of the real world and welcomes them into a real-life production of her songs. It’s a production well-worth your time.

Cats!

Not a cat person? You will be after seeing Taylor’s beloved furry companions, Meredith Grey, Olivia Benson and Benjamin Button. Fans have fallen in love with the felines, who are often plastered across Swift’s social media accounts. These kittens get the best of the best and even receive their own personalized gifts from Swifties! Wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world to come back as one of Taylor’s cats. #justsayin

Relatable

Anyone else feel like Taylor reads their diary? We know it isn’t just us. Despite being one of the most successful artists and in a league all her own, Taylor still remains relatable as her songs ring true to so many and offer encouragement and companionship through some of life biggest moments and transformations.

Talented beyond words

Sure, her vocals are next-level, but Taylor is also a multi-instrumentalist as she can hold her own playing piano, guitar, banjo and ukulele. She also has some mad baking and cooking skills… Dinner at Taylor’s house!
