After redefining what a successful comeback is with the success of her latest music collaboration with Panic! at the Disco, country and pop superstar Taylor Swift has been very visible with performances and guestings in the US and overseas to talk about her world views and her new release. The star will be headlining iHeartRadio's Wango Tango event on June 1 at the Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California.
According to iHeart Radio's event page, Taylor Swift will be the main performer of the show which features equally talented artists like the Jonas Brothers, Halsey, 5 Seconds of Summer, Zedd, Ally Brooke, Tyga, Ava Maxx, Fletcher, and Tomorrow X Together. The event will be hosted by Ryan Seacrest and is expected to fill the 27,000 strong capacity of the arena quite easily.
Meanwhile, Taylor Swift once again proved her strong and independent personality recently when, during a press tour for "ME!", she was asked by the German reporter about the state of her personal life. As Taylor Swift is nearing her 30th birthday this December, the reporter from Deutsche Presse Agentur (DPA) asked her about turning points in her life and if she ever thought about raising a family and having children soon.
According to a report by USA Today, the singer-songwriter immediately shut down the question and dismissed it as sexist, saying that men who are turning 30 do not get asked the same question, so she does not want to validate it with an answer.
Taylor Swift, who has been in a relationship with actor Joe Alwyn for two years, did acknowledge that she considered her 20s to be a time to gain experiences.
"I definitely plan to try and fail (at) things in my 30s as well. But I expect that in our 30s, we feel a little better of who we are. The closer I get to it, the more I feel it happens," she told the news outlet.
The talented artist, who once wrote to Apple to express her strong opposition to iTunes' non payment of artists for their music, wrote an essay about turning 30 in a recent issue of Elle. In her article, Taylor Swift encouraged women not to be defined by society's perceptions about physical aging and rallied them to go against the public standard.
As a constant fodder for gossip and online bashing, Taylor Swift also encouraged young people to block out the noise from social media and eliminate the need to feel validated by other people's opinions. She also shares her thoughts about failure and fear and getting over the drama, something people under 30 could learn a lot from.
