AceShowbiz - Taylor Swift shows off her wild side while posing for The Hollywood Reporter for its latest issue. In the cover photo, the 25-year-old songstress, who dons a flowing printed blue gown, can be seen closing her eyes, pulling her hair and screams.
In an interview with the magazine, Taylor opens up about her whirlwind year which included a record-breaking album and genre-breaking risks. "The biggest challenge this year actually was convincing members of my own team that this was a good call," the "Shake It Off" hitmaker shares.
She explains, "I'd get called in front of a group of people who have known me and worked with me for years who'd say, 'Are you sure that you want call the album 1989? We think it's a weird title. Are you sure you want to put an album cover out that has less than half of your face on it? Are you positive that you want to take a genre that you've cemented yourself in and completely switch to a new one that you are a newcomer to?' "
"The biggest struggle kind of turned into the biggest triumph when it worked out," she concludes of her team's doubts.
Taylor also shares the unexpected reactions she got when she decided to take her music off of Spotify. "I didn't think that it would be shocking to anyone," she shares, "With as many ways as artists are personalizing their musical distribution, it didn't occur to me that this would be anything that anyone would talk about. But I could never have expected so many text messages, emails, and phone calls from other artists, writers, and producers saying thank you."
