Taylor Swift was definitely number one at the Billboard music awards last night where she took home 8 trophies.Yes, you read that right! It was pretty much the Taylor Swift awards. Today, she’s being named number one for something that has absolutely nothing to do with her music. Taylor topped the list of Maxim Hot 100 which is something most women hope to do at least once in their lifetime.
Check out what she told the mag about being her best friend, what she’s most proud of and the 1989 tour.
On being number one: “It’s really nice and such an incredible compliment. This year has been my favorite year of my life so far. I got to make an album exactly the way I wanted to make it. I got to put it out exactly the way I dreamed about putting it out. Every one of these kinds of whims and ideas came to fruition. The videos—I’m proud of those, I’m proud of the tour, I’m proud of the way this all happened. In the midst of all that, this is really nice. It really fells like a wonderful celebration of my favorite year.”
On having so many best friends: “Thankfully, 10 years into my career now, I’ve learned how to work in a smarter way. You have to have time to breathe and have a happy life, and friendships are so important to me. Thankfully—thanks to the fans—now we get to play stadiums, so we do two or three stadium shows a week. I’ll see my friends in whichever city I’m closer to.”
On preparing to go on tour for 1989: “We’ve been in rehearsals for months, trying to get the live instrumental versions of these songs to as close to the album sounds as possible. And also you’re lengthening things, creating mash- ups with things. It was fun to play around and get everything sonically right before we got on the actual stage and started doing the choreography. But before all that—probably close to a year ago—we started setting the stage, so that was when the drawing started. Now all we have to do is actually…do the tour.”
