source of inspiration for millions of people.
She's Taylor Alison Swift.

• Taylor Alison Swift (born December 13, 1989) is an American
singer-songwriter. Her discography spans multiple genres and
her narrative songwriting—often inspired by her personal life—
has received critical praise and widespread media coverage. Born
in West Reading, Pennsylvania, Swift moved to Nashville,
Tennessee, at age 14 to become a country artist. She signed a
songwriting deal with Sony/ATV Music Publishing in 2004 and a
recording contract with Big Machine Records in 2005. Her 2006
self-titled debut album made her the first female country singer
to write or co-write a US platinum-certified album entirely.
She experimented with rock and electronic styles on
Red (2012), which featured her first Billboard Hot 100
number-one song, "We Are Never Ever Getting Back
Together", and eschewed her country identity in her
synth-pop album, 1989 (2014), supported by charttopping songs "Shake It Off", "Blank Space", and "Bad
Blood". Media scrutiny inspired the urban-flavored
Reputation (2017) and its number-one single "Look
What You Made Me Do".
