Taylor Swift Talks Fame, Grammys and Her Life Now
"I went home and I cried," she said. "I got In-N-Out Burger and ate a lot."
— -- Are you getting sick of hearing about Taylor Swift’s special on-stage tour guests?
Too bad: She does it for the fans, not the haters.
“There’s really nothing I can do about it, because I’m living my life the way I want to live it,” she told NME of dealing with negativity. “If you want to be snarky about me sharing my stage with other artists and giving these fans -- who’ve paid their own money to see a show -- more than they expected to see that night, if you’d like to be snarky about that, then go ahead.”
She is indeed living life her way, and she has no regrets. “There’s nothing I would change about my life!” she said, adding that she prefers fame to anonymity.
“Playing stadiums ... walking down the street ... I’d choose playing stadiums,” she said. “It’s a trade-off. There’s no way to travel two roads at once. You pick one. And if you don’t like the road you’re on, you change direction.”
Stadium shows don’t tend to make the singer, 25, nervous, but she says there are situations that give her a bit of anxiety. “I [only] get nervous for TV or any situation in which I feel there are people in the audience who hate me,” she says. “If there are a considerable amount of people in the first couple of rows who I know are wishing I would trip and fall onstage, that stresses me out. So not at my shows. Maybe an awards show or something ...”
Awards shows can be stressful for other reasons, too. The possibility of losing, for example. In an interview with Grammy Pro, Swift admitted that after she lost the Album of the Year Grammy in 2014, she cried a little bit. Her album "Red" lost out to Daft Punk’s "Random Access Memories."
“I remember not going to after-parties, I went home and I cried a little bit, and I got In-N-Out Burger and ate a lot,” she said.
