Interesting timing. Just another example of left-wing media propaganda. The laptop wasn't real was it Leslie? What a tool. 😊
I despise Donald Trump.
I heard this about her. For someone who sings about all her bad choices and she is going to tell you what to do.
oh, boy lots of views
Why do have VD. Confrirans.

Swift Taylor’s PR must give us a break.
Is it wrong to want to watch Taylor's boyfriend kick the 💩💩 out of Leon?
She seem to have realized politics is far more important than selling songs.
"Second Look" has no video?
Cause the hate will gonna hate hate hat 😂 Taylor, you're the best 🎉

Indorsement of the laughing hyena…. that's a no from me.
Think kamala Harris is going to try to get white voters on her side, think she is to busy trying to get Jewish antisemitism laws to pass with illegal immigrants votes / well she sat on hands with the Israel backed border wall so can get Americans to support Israel water wars when a canalvis needed to end conflict so can support both sides 🛎 🛎
I love the way Taylor Swift addressed her political views. She just asked everyone to research the issues that are important to them and to vote.
Loved this podcast!! I am 72 yrs old. I did not know much about Taylor Swift but I do now! I can see quite clearly how she’s a force in her own right! Being a woman,song writer and artist
As well as brilliant as she is!!!
I truley enjoyed hearing and learning about her.
Thank you for sharing this 60 minute podcast!
Sincerely,

We love Taylor! ❤️
I admire Taylor for speaking up. She is using her voice to encourage people to vote.
Enjoyed this episode. Great look back at the beginning of this young lady's career.
She says wow each time to audience appreciation, not because she's surprised each time but because she's FEELING it each time and it's not difficult to grasp how overwhelming the energy of 90 thousand or so souls would feel.
She is a highly sensing person and her focus is for her fans.
Thank you Taylor ❤❤
66 love her music! 🎶 and think she is a great human being also.
Loved this podcast except for the snotty pitchfork music critic.
Her fans are ageless. I adore her and have for more than a decade. Mid 50’s here. 🫶🏻
💜💜💜
I wanna see the video!
What a great podcast and so interesting. Taylor has always been a mature and talented young woman and she’s a national treasure! She’s beloved not only for her music, but by the way she lives her life. She’s kind and generous and loving to everyone she meets.
This is great! Love hearing her earlier interviews, these are treasures, suddenly unearthened… and honestly, she is very smart, even then. Love her then, love her even morw now!! ❤❤❤❤️❤️🙌🙌
I like Taylor but I’m not a Swiftie. I’m old. But I’m disappointed in the way Leslie Stahl handled this interview in a couple of places. One, she doubted that Taylor was still surprised each time she encountered a loving audience. Two, she tried to tell Taylor that a sad song could sound happy if she played it different. Why? Does Leslie ever get enthralled by a song? They are not meant to be changed.
Leslie said your fans are giving you so much power. Taylor says they are giving me love. Wooo. Good clap back. As experienced as Leslie is, she still stumbles. Missed reading the room. Still I appreciate that Leslie did this interview.
Good for Taylor, great gal 👏👏👍
I am relatively new to the world of Taylor swift. Actually, I'm more interested in the effect she is having on society, including the music industry as business, than I am in her music. Her empowerment of girls & women is probably the most powerful & amazing part of the swift realm. I probably will, sometime, sit & listen to all her albums in the order she recorded them to see if I can see growth/change in her. I found a documentary about her most interesting.
I’m just amazed at how some people hates on her because of what? She’s a great business woman even as a very young girl. As for writing about her life, interesting how no one says anything about male artists who write about heartbreak like Bruno Mars, Ed Sheeran, etc.
Intelligent 🌷🌷💗
Interesting revisiting this after the Diddy arrest.
Interesting revisit. My biggest takeaways:
• Authenticity – Taylor Swift is the same person today that she was in 2011. That authenticity is the foundation for her longevity — 18 years and counting.
• Foreshadowing – Her thoughts on fame and how unnecessary hiding from it feels, foreshadows the demise of her 6 year relationship with Joe Alwyn.
• Scott Betrayal… I mean, Borchetta, is a snake.
• Leslie Stahl and this producer (as much as I respect their talent) are idiots for not reaching out about a follow-up piece. Taylor cares deeply about recognition from legacy institutions (Grammys, Billboard Hot 100, Time Magazine) and it's shocking to me they haven't pitched a follow-up — 13 YEARS after the original story (Taylor's lucky 13) — as Taylor wraps up the most successful music tour in world history. Are they stupid? I know they are talented but this feels like journalistic malfeasance.
Loved hearing the point in history of Taylor Swift.
unique musical performer where she introduces years and years of tough training at piano,dancing,guitar as to become AMERICAN SWEETHEART,but mrs.Kamala flop gets power to debunk and send all this chuzpah to her managers
AI voice
60 minutes is another hugely corrupt fake news program.
If any of you haven’t watched Taylor’s graduation speech in 2020 to NYU It’s on you tube and it’s a masterclass in Public Speaking. She is incredible . One of the best speech’s I’ve ever heard
I can’t wait to see 60 minutes’ next Taylor Swift’s interview! This was a Great look back into Taylor Swift’s rising star. Determination, an inner knowing of herself, and yet she possesses vulnerabilities that make her so normal & relatable. I love her more now after your in-depth interview. Thank you.
Interesting.
