Taylor Swift is not an “underdog”: The real story about her 1 percent upbringing that the New York Times won’t tell you
Quote:
Swift is the privileged daughter of wealthy plutocrats. She can write a good pop song, but also had a huge leg up
Quote:
When Swift was 14, her father relocated to Merrill Lynch’s Nashville office as a way to help dear Taylor break into country music. As a sophomore in high school, she got a convertible Lexus. Around the same time, her dad bought a piece of Big Machine, the label to which Swift signed.
Yes, she comes from money. So what? I didn't know there was an understanding that all popstars had to be poor prior to breaking out and be out on the streets with their guitars singing for crowds
I thought everyone (on ATRL at least) already knew her father bought her her record deal?
