Taylor Swift is officially the youngest person to ever gross more than $100 million on a concert tour.

And she's just getting started; there's nowhere but up from here.

Is there an article about this? I need proof.

“I have the entire summer just to finish up the record. So that will be awesome. There are a few songs that are completely from another person’s perspective. I really like the feeling of making little departures musically.”- Rolling Stone April 12, 2012

She is finally writing in third person perspective.

I don't get the whole playing the game thing. She is just doing what Blake and Jason and Brad are doing. I mean Jason has his "don't get distracted vote for me" thing and Blake has the "tell me why I'm your entertainer of the year" thing and Brad just has the "thanks for voting for me" thing lol. Her thing is just showing the cat and its hilarious. That's country music for you interacting with the fans

Its really amusing to read that whatever Taylor does is desperate, or seeking attention or etc. But all she is doing is playing the game. And she has played it to perfection since 2006. Loser bitches will stay whining...

Meaning she is trying to be creative to get the attention of her fans.

I was basing it off of Wikipedia, so it's possible that they're missing tours. Out of the tours they have listed, Taylor was youngest at her tour's start and end. I'm pretty sure that everyone else on the list- bar Gaga (the former youngest)- had been in the industry at least a decade before making the list.

Quote:

Taylor Swift- Taylor Swifting 62 up, 135 down
1. The act of telling a blind date/girl from internet where to meet you and then driving by first to see what she looks like. If she's ugly you can drive away and you never had to actually meet her.

2. When your friend tells you that a girl is hot but when you meet her you kick him in the balls and take his man card for thinking that an ugly chick is hot.

3. When extremely over-rated singers who are popular with people under 25 are placed on tour venues, tv shows, movies and awards shows where they don't belong just to fill an empty slot and make extra money off of teenyboppers who's suburban moms will pay anything to make their kids happy.

These pressed souls.

BTW this is the second definition.

I'll be sad if that's all the Rolling Stone article has.

Another little secret to make it that Taylor has already acknowledged?

I wonder why other artists like Gaga don't have all of her other songs chart, except for Taylor?

Oh, and in just six years.

I mean does Swifties download each individual tracks instead of the whole album?

Fanbase obsession. The only other artists who could pull this off if they had the digital sales back in their time would be the Beatles or Michael Jackson and maybe a couple others too

Part of me always wondered if the reason every song on Speak Now charted was because for the first few hours after the album's release on iTunes, the "Complete My Album" option didn't work...

Only three artists that had all songs from an album shot to chart shortly after the release: The Beatles, Kris Allen, & Taylor.

And EW has explained the deets why Taylor is the most impressive out of those three. Original songs, credited as sole-writer.

yes EW knows what they are talking about

Kris Allen really achieved this feat?

I mean he is good alot better than most idols but he is not worthy of such a feat

You've picked an interesting stuff here.

Other than what Jake has said (no "complete album" option), I'm leaning to CountryFriedChicken's statement. Sure Kris Allen benefited a lot from American Idol & iTunes, but The Beatles? How in the flipping hell they set that record back in the stone age? Charting all songs is no easy feat, at all. You will do it if you've made a crowd fully obsessed with you. One reason why I have thought that this fandom has stepped on to the next level, mania. Even tho it's not as crazy as Beatles' was. No police needed on M&G show or public appearances so far like Beatles or 1D. But it has signs that it might gonna go that far.

Sadly yes. iTunes was a hot new thing back in the days. Not surprising.

And considering how EW has turned from #1 Taylor critic to #1 Taylor News-Watch. There's something interesting here that EW knows.

Critics have complained about her lack of third person perspective in her writing. She switches between the 'you and 'I and 'me and you', but never the 'they' perspective . Like you said it will be interesting to see how much her craftsmanship of the lyrics have evolved during the last two years and what experimentations Taylor will throw at us. I cannot wait any longer.

Like the bra throwing lol. One day a fight will break out or something. I had floor seats once and those kids don't play when they want to see Taylor I had like 20 kids wacking me upside the head trying to get a chance to hug Taylor sadly I didn't get to but I was very close to her

Edit I call these people kids because they acted childish some of them were way older than me but they didn't know how to stay calm lol of course I was freaking out to though lol

My friend said that her audience is worse than the metal audience, minus the fights.

Sure at metal you'll see bunch of drunk ppl with 'extreme' make-up, but that's it. They let the band to speak. Screamed when they done the song. NOT throughout the show like hers.

A riot in her shows is inevitable. Will happen in the near future. It's okay to be freaking out, but you need to stop when you've disturbed others or putting you & people around you in danger.

Kids = immature people with kiddie mentality anyway.
