Handwritten notes by teenage Taylor Swift sold for £14,200 at auction, including answers to a questionnaire.
When she was 19, the singer filled out a questionnaire for MIZZ magazine in which she revealed insecurity about her appearance.
On the two pages, sold at a Bonham auction in London on Wednesday, the teenager wrote: “If I could be someone else for a day, it would be… Rachel McAdams or Miranda Kerr.” I wonder what it’s like to be so pretty.’
When asked what her biggest secret is, she responded: ‘My biggest secret is… who the song ‘Love Story’ is about. I’ll never tell!’
