Ok, me and the audience are like this now and they just want it to send you a message about your ex-man My ex-man brought his new girlfriend She's like "Oh, my god!" but I'm just gonna shake. And to the fella over there with the hella good hair Won't you come on over, baby? We can shake, shake, shake Look at all, I am recognizing a lot of people.....wow Congratulations! All I can say is congratulation , the record is getting unbelievable reviews Across the board, and is sold out everywhere, so... I wanna ask you, particularly about the first single "shake it off" because it's about letting go of negative stuff that people say to you about you there's something that really drove you to decide enough with this let's let's really shake it off yeah I think it was the fact that.... Lately I've been spending a lot of time online, just.......why? I've been, because.....not in the way you think, I've been actually I've been kind of going in reading all kinds of comments from fans on Instagram and Tumblr and Twitter and seeing....seeing that not only was I going through people say things about me that weren't true so was everyone that I was talking to online and we may have different circumstances surrounding our lives and different sources of gossip theirs are just like whispers in school hallways and rumors at work and mine is on the newsstand when I check out at the grocery store but it's the same feeling and and I think that it has to be the same reaction if you want to continue to live a happy life you have to let go of things you can't control and it's our human instinct to try and defend yourself when people have the wrong impression of you you wanna be like...but you you....you don't like me, you don't understand that's not what happened but you have to let go of that and just like get rid of it cause it's not yours anymore and you are nervous.....I'm sorry you was nervous about how this album was gonna be received and you always seem surprised when you won awards how are you how are you, how do you not know how awesome you are? and why was you nervous about this album? I wasn't necessarily nervous about this album, I think my label might have been a little nervous but they'll never say it now but you know, I think that I knew I wanted to change the way I did things creatively I knew I wanted to keep people on their toes I didn't want anyone to have their feelings hurt by me changing directions creatively, because that's never the intention, and you know I think that I don't ever wanna be presumptuous about anything about being invited or about winning something or about something doing well because if you're presumptuous about your next project doing well then maybe you won't work as hard create again and I, so I keep a nice healthy level of insecurity going at all times.....I understand that You know what bothers me is that you write about breakups you write about your life and they criticize you for that but other artists. male artists do it all the time and they never make.... Happy anniversay by the way......Thank you Awesome...I completely agree with you and It's interesting how feminism has come up in conversation so much more in the last year it's amazing to see because I was never really taught the definition of feminism when I was a little girl and I wish I had been it just wasn't really culturally much of a conversation in in the masses you know with the masses with like where I was living in my small town so it's amazing to see people like Emma Watson and people who are providing a really... It's equality it's not mailbag and I love that there isn't easy definition yourself because you, and before you can do anything you have to have a positive feel for who you are no one completes you, you are ready to complete, so that what I know about you you know as I said earlier, one of things I love about you is you match to your own drama, and that to me is totally freedom, so I love it, I love you We're gonna take a break. We comeback. We have more with Taylor Swift, so please don't go away, ok? We are back with incredible Taylor Swift and that was "Welcome to New York" - the first song on Taylor's new album "1989" Now speaking of New York - my hometown, you have recently moved here and you said that it's been your lifelong dream I love it here.....(you do)...I love it so much and I actually ended up writing a song "Welcome to New York" about what it felt like to move here and how it just felt very very much like endless possibilities and it feels like being unique is celebrated here and The song "Welcome to New York" I actually...I don't think I've told anybody this before but the fans are wonderful enough to make it number one on iTunes then it's it's selling really really well which is good because I'm doing it all of my proceeds to New York City public school......wow so here in New York, have surrounded yourself with incredible group of girlfriends some famous you guys were just talking about Lena Dunham, but some not so famous and I think that all women can do a better job surrounding themselves with women that make them feel happy and strong What are some of the things you look for friends? I look for people who are....really have their own passion in life Lena.......Absolutely We really relate because we’re writers first and foremost and also we’re just super enthusiastic about everything if you meet Lena for the first time, she comes up to you ......"Hi, baby" you've never met her before but she's acting like your long lost friend and that's what so amazing about her but my friends - they all are chasing their own dreams and they all have their own ambitions, and that’s what fuels you You’re supposed to surround yourself with people who challenge you, and motivate you and and what makes you wanna be smarter, stronger, better......right so that's what my friends do for me and I'm so happy to have so many good ones right now and you have so many fans and you've recently visited a little boy and I know this was not the only time you do this but we have a beautiful tape of you visiting a little boy within the hospital with leukemia take a look I didn't know you'd come! You didn't know....We wanted to surprise you You did....yeah [Song: We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together] Perfect...It's just beautiful! I miss him so much watching that that was just like a few months ago but I already just like wish I could go back.... Looks like he would like that to.......I didn't know you'd come I'm gonna ask you...be question about your cat somebody just learn about to the fact that it's a national cat day....national cat day today two...........I have two cats.......two cats how friendly are they? -well so like there are two of them, the first one, that one's Meredith Doctor Meredith Grey. It's her full name and then that's Detective Olivia Benson.......oh, that's so cute! so yeah, the theme is strong women characters on my favorite TV shows but uh, the first one-Meredith started out as a very friendly kitten and then she became some sort of an Internet celebrity and I think she kind of changed a little She got a lot for that She just kind of sits around and she's always giving me the side glance she's always like you know like I don't Like I don't matter anymore to her because she knows that she was like 2013's most popular celebrity cat So then there's the new one, who like has terrible balance and walks into walls, then like falls asleep on you purring, so she's like polar opposite what is she? she's .........yeah, so ...your happy cat day, happy cat day everybody And you also just released the deluxe album that has some cool features. Can you tell us about that, the audience? ........ yeah, yeah so the "1989" deluxe album is at Target and it has three extra songs that I'm obsessed with them, so happy that people get to hear them and also has... It has these three songwriting voice memos from my cell phone on the deluxe on the CD Yes, so essentially what that is it? When I started out writing a song and it's just me sitting at the piano with my phone appeared recording a voice memo of it and me like making up half the lyrics cause I only have the melody and half of the lyrics I wanted to show people that part of it because so many people ask questions about my songwriting and I just wanted to show them like this is where it starts and then you can listen to the album see where ended up so that's before and after and that's really helpful for all those kids there who wanna be songwriter and singer like you and there're millions of them....and they all love you I wanna thank you for coming, you have brought joy to this studio
