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.

dailystar.co.ukdog prised its jaw around her head.The animal had to be wrenched off the elderly lady called Jacqueline by the pet's owner David Gorton, who has lived next door to her for more than 30 years.David ran down the stairs of his Blackburn home after he "heard a commotion outside" and then found his cross-breed Kia attacking a frightened Jacqueline.He went on to sustain injuries himself as he put his hand in the dog's mouth and, although the dog had not bitten Jacqueline's face, the elderly lady still suffered a head wound.Gorton's other two dogs, meanwhile, watched on shaking in the corner.Paramedics subsequently arrived and Jacqueline was taken to hospital, while the dog that attacked her was seized by police, along with one of Gorton's other dogs.The incident left Gorton and his family heartbroken and he told LancsLive: "Jacqueline had come over because she'd asked me to order her some biodegradable cat litter online and she was bringing the money round.

I had to shove my hands in the dog's mouth to get her off Jacqueline. We feel awful."On what happened after the police's arrival, Gorton added: "The police also took Nala, our two-year-old, even though she had nothing to do with it.
Kia's been seized and tested before after she attacked another dog but they gave her back."My son Sonny said straight after it happened that he was going to take Kia to the vets to have her put down as she's his dog but we said to wait and let the police deal with it.
