I’ve never really been a fan of Taylor Swift, but watching this made me a big one.
Here are just two of the many quotables from the clip:
Quotable Quote 1:
Taylor: I had to fight for that song. Because when I first played it for my family and a few people, they were just sort of… hmm?
Leslie: But you believed in it. You trusted yourself.
Taylor: Yeah it’s almost more fun that way. When you have something to prove.
Quotable Quote 2:
Leslie: You’re a role model, and you know it.
Taylor: I think it’s my responsibility to know it. And be conscious of it. It’ll be really easy to say “I’m 21 now, I do what I want. You raise your kids.” But it’s not the truth of it. The truth of it is that every singer out there with a song on the radio is raising the next generation. So make your words count.
Way to go Taylor! :)
