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.
New disability benefit may be paid to some people at a daily rate instead of every four weeks
dailyrecord.co.ukPeople in Scotland can no longer make a new claim for Personal Independence Payment (PIP) as it has been replaced by Adult Disability Payment (ADP), a similar but devolved benefit only available to people living north of the border.
The new benefit is for adults over 16 and under State Pension age living with a disability, long-term illness or a physical or mental health condition.
Social Security Scotland will deliver the benefit with mostly the same eligibility criteria and payment rates currently being administered by DWP for PIP.
This means new and existing claimants who receive ADP will be paid between £24.45 and £156.90 per week to help with the additional costs of daily living and mobility needs , as the benefit is paid every four weeks, this amounts to between £97.80 and £627.60 every payment period.
