Taylor Swift may be Billboard's Woman of the Year, but we remember Swift when she was just a girl of 16. Watch her perform "Tim McGraw" and "Picture to Burn" at Billboard HQ in July 2006.
The youngest superstar ever chosen as Billboard's Woman of the Year, Taylor Swift has enchanted fans, fellow stars and the music business alike. The "Speak Now" singer spoke with Billboard about her role models, her touring philosophy and why she's never considered herself a "boys vs. girls" type of girl.
Taylor Swift has often said she wants to issue albums every two years, and it appears her as-yet-unnamed fourth studio record will meet that standard, as the country star has already written 25 songs for her next release.
Taylor Swift's "Ours" video is all yours.
Billboard's Woman of the Year debuted the new video on Friday. The video features Taylor Swift out of princess mode, donning office-appropriate clothes for a dull cubicle shift. She gets through the day by watching home videos of herself and an absent boyfriend, who makes a return by the song's end.
The video was helmed by director Declan Whitebloom, who handled Swift's "Mean" video as well.
"When Taylor says 'I've got an idea,' you listen to what she's gonna say," He told E! News. "And so I did, and it was a great idea--and I loved it!"
The track appears on the bonus edition of Swift's "Speak Now." The singer, who covers this week's issue of Billboard, was honored at today's annual Women in Music event.
