Hello Taylor Nation,
Here at the Swift Agency, just one guy who’s not on the money list, we’re not big on lists – or money for that matter – but we thought you’d like to know. The Enchantress made the top spot in Forbes’ Highest-Paid Celebrities Under 30. More important than that, Ellen released part 2 of Taylor’s big surprise back during the release for Fearless. Let’s just start the video reel, shall we?
Here’s Forbes‘ video. It’s a little sleep-inducing, but eventually they get to the Queen of Sparks:
Here’s the Blonde With The Sparkly Guitar (and curls!) on Ellen the time she met Justin Timberlake:
And a bonus clip promo for Ellen. T-Swizzle appears at about the 0:13 mark:
I know it’s supposed to be funny and all… but I can’t help but feel sorry for poor Tay in that last clip. Adorable.
