On Friday, Jan. 21, Taylor Swift will be boarding a cruise ship packed with her fans and contest winners and performing an at-sea show live. And MTV Buzzworthy writer Nicole James embarked on the seven-day cruise to catch all the seafaring action. Here's her report.
Coming to you from my stateroom balcony overlooking Cozumel, I can finally say what I've been waiting to say all week--Taylor Swift hits the stage today!!!!! Although it might be hard to maybe tear herself away from Jake Gyllenhaal, who she's maybe dating again, I'm pretty sure she's contractually obligated to be here. Shows before bros, Tay.
Because I'm sneaky friendly, I was able to get some inside Taylor Swift info from one of the room attendants. This is some National Enquirer ish right here, people--I discovered Taylor Swift will be prepping in one of the ship's super-fancy loft suites. From there she'll be transported via private elevator straight to the stage. Exciting, huh??? Here's a photo I snapped of the stage to help you guys feel like you're right here with me:
OK, so maybe you're too cold and too not on vacation to feel like you're right here with me (almost done rubbing it in, sorry), so I'll offer you a consolation prize of some of my favorite Taylor Swift videos. You're welcome!
"Tim McGraw"-- The video that started it all! Little Taylor is so young here. Especially compared with the grandma that she is now. It's really too bad she hasn't been able to accomplish more by 21. (End obvious sarcasm.)
"You Belong With Me"-- My very favorite Taylor Swift video! Mostly because I'm a fully functioning adult that still sings into my hairbrush. #foreveralone
"Back To December"--Taylor Swift said it herself: "This video contains snow and sadness." And sometimes we all just need to cry it out. Plus, her bangs look great here.
OK! So it's almost game time! I have my outfit ready, my press pass in hand and a full camera battery. Check back on Buzzworthy this Monday for a full report of Taylor Swift's show at sea, complete with photos!
