Hello Taylor Nation! The Outspoken One has been in Japan lately doing some TV appearances. Here’s her appearance on Zoom In, a morning TV show in Japan, on November 18 (yeah the day arrives earlier over there). We here at the Swift Agency, where we are really just one guy that at this point should give up on this “we” joke altogether, tried to get the ninja department to translate Speak Now to Japanese, but apparently ninjas should neither be seen nor heard. So, according to Google’s language tools it should translate to ima hanasu. Sorry if it’s not the correct translation.
Thanks to @NaomiSwift13 for posting this link!
You can also take a look behind the scenes at Taylor Swift’s photoshoot for the cover of the current issue of Seventeen!
Vodpod videos no longer available.
Finally, we’d like to thank @ShaiLovesTay for sending us a link to this video of the sound check prior to the appearance of Taylor on the Today show back during release week. On the mike is none other than Elizabeth Huett! Liz has some skills, and this is just a sound check so I’m sure she can do even better! She takes on Taylor’s Love Story. Yes, I’m a Liz fan. No snickering from the peanut gallery please.
By the way, the first person that asks who is that girl singing instead of Taylor gets to wear my guitar as a hat. Elizabeth Huett first met Taylor as a fan early on, then they both met when Liz worked at a radio station, then again when she was in Dance Wars (the girl can sing AND dance) and finally when she auditioned to be Taylor’s backup singer. She nailed the audition and became part of The Agency. Ok, now you can stop snickering.
