Taylor Swift is as big as it gets in the music industry. She is a beloved country star AND pop star!
Taylor Swift shocked most of the free world several weeks ago when she came out of the woods and threw her support behind a pair of Democratic political candidates in Tennessee.
In a heartfelt and lengthy Instagram post, the singer endorsed Jim Cooper for House of Representatives in her native state and Phil Bredesen for Senate.
There may now be bad blood between Taylor Swift and many Republicans, but the singer knew there would be trouble as soon as she posted to Instagram last week.
Nevertheless, she came out of the non-political woods and sent a message to young voters who think that a change in the direction of the country can only happen in their wildest dreams.
On Sunday, Taylor Swift stunned with world with two political endorsements in Tennessee, breaking her long-held political silence for the first time.
She endorsed a pair of Democrats who are running in her home state, and she laid out her reasons -- and encouraged her fans to vote.
She's sorry, but the old Taylor Swift can't come to the phone right now.
Why?
There was a time when the idea of Taylor Swift stepping away from the spotlight in favor of a more pedestrian existence would have seemed absurd.
Following the release of her 1989 album, Swift was one of the most visible people on the planet, and the adoration from her legion of fans seemed to be mutual.
