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.

However, that did not happen with a $6.5M opening at 3,005 theaters, boosted by Imax and PLF ticket sales which accounted for over a third of that number; altogether a paltry $10M worldwide start.
Russell was trying to replicate the success of his starry 2013 10x Oscar nominated American Hustle which minted a $19.1M domestic wide opening over Christmas that year, a $150M+ stateside gross and $251.1M WW off a $40M production cost.
