14 DAY TRIAL // While much of the current pop icons today race to outdo themselves in naughty and raunchy photo shoots, revealing as much skin as socially acceptable, country star Taylor Swift moves away from the trend and says she likes to keep her clothes on when promoting herself.
The “Red” singer has recently expressed her feelings about modeling in an interview with Glamour Magazine, in which she reveals that she doesn't feel the need to expose herself in order to make an impact.
“I find it relatively easy to keep my clothes on because I don’t really feel like taking them off,” the singer says, pointing fingers at some of the other figures in the industry, without actually giving names.
Taylor also admits that she feels better revealing herself through her music than through her body. &ldquoIt’s not an urge I have. For me ‘risky’ is revealing what really happened in my life through music. Risky is writing confessional songs and telling the true story about a person with enough details so everyone knows who that person is. That’s putting myself out there, maybe even more than taking my shirt off.”
The young singer is well aware of her fame but says she makes active decisions to not read any bad reviews, especially on the Internet. “I’m careful about getting sucked into the rabbit hole that is the Internet because, as a songwriter, I don’t have the option of having thick skin,” Taylor adds, alluding to the fact that she's actually very self-conscious.
While being level-headed and full of decency, the things that Taylor says in her interview come like a slap in the face of singers like Miley, who just yesterday was featured in a controversial spread for W Magazine, which saw some very intimate parts of her anatomy getting exposed, albeit in an artsy way.
