Taylor Swift acts sweet and innocent By Kate Johns

Taylor Swift is the real deal Written by Kate Johns
After watching Taylor Swift win award after award in the last few years, I decided I adore Taylor Swift. Whether Taylor is the real deal or not does not matter to me. What matters is that Taylor is one of the only young classy, role models for younger girls, and for women of all ages.

People are making fun of Taylor Swift for acting all sweet and innocent when she wins an award. But, all I have to say is, "Too bad." If Taylor Swift is indeed just acting,well get used to it people, because she is doing something not one other big name singing star is doing right now.

Taylor Swift is acting all sweet and innocent, even though she is now 23 years old. Many other stars and people are being way too hard on this young, talented girl. Does everyone need to think in such a cynical manner? Does every young female star have to show major cleavage, dye their hair in strange colors, wear meat dresses, and scare parents half to death to gain attention? There's something to be said for a star that shows respect, gratitude, talent, and motivation in today's competitive world.

The facts are indeed stunning for Taylor Swift. She started writing songs and playing guitar at the young age of 12, because she needed an outlet for her creativity. What it comes down to is Swift was bullied at school, and she was misunderstood by her peers. She was tall, skinny, pretty, and a daydreamer. She admits to writing songs in her classes when she was very young.

What she did was take her creativity to an entirely new level. At the time her mother was a stay at home mom. Swift's mom obviously believed in her daughter's dream of becoming a successful country singing sensation, because Swift's family moved from Wyomissing Pennsylvania, to Nashville Tennessee when Swift was only 14. Swift was born in 1989, and in 2003, her family picked up and moved. Then by 2006, Swift had a hit song called "Tim McGraw" on her hands; her first record sold 5.5 million copies.

By 2011, Forbes announced that Swift had amassed $35 million dollars in a small fortune.
What it comes down to is Taylor Swift may or may not be "acting" as a young, sweet innocent girl. Besides with Swift showing her true classy self, which people are cynically saying is all an act, then so be it. Swift is one of the only singing stars today acting or staying true to herself as a sweet, innocent person.

Taylor Swift shines as a courageous, talented , fearless young woman who outshines, and outsells many other talented country, and pop stars.
