Taylor Swift up front by Swift, Taylor. I.V. Media. MVD Visual So much more than just another pretty faced pop singer (although she does happen to be blessed in that area too!) Taylor Swift - songwriter, performer, vocalist, country music mega-star and winner of more awards than she can possibly have space for on her shelves - is a modern day phenomenon. This DVD features more than 80 minutes of filmed interviews with Taylor Swift recorded across her career to date, during which the girl from Wyomissing, PA tells it like it is. Coming over as a truly decent human being - albeit one with a subtle but often quite surprising sense of humour - and with honesty, integrity and a huge enthusiasm not just for her own career but for life in general, Taylor here shares many previously unpublished secrets and appears to relish in providing some quite shocking revelations about herself.
