I pray for those we have lost but more personally for those who have lost – the families of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, George Floyd and so many before you. I know how it feels to get that call that someone you love isn’t coming home.
Matt McGinn and Taylor Phillips played a big part in getting me where I am.
That period in the late Eighties and early Nineties was when I was playing my best snooker. My trouble was that I had so many bad habits that my preparation was terrible: people like Steve Davis or Dennis Taylor were model pros.
Honestly, I don’t really hear the comparisons to Taylor Swift anymore. I think it’s because people are finally starting to see me for who I am and my craft and not being the next Taylor.
James Taylor may be an all-American boy but he isn’t Horatio Alger, and the lionizing of many rock stars by the rock press has as much to do with old fashioned rags-to-riches stories as does the straight culture’s deification of its idols.
My dad’s more three-dimensional than Opie Taylor or Richie Cunningham. He even has a temper! He’s a real person. But some people are disappointed by that.
Lupe Velez was way before me; Dolores Del Rio was way before me, so I had no one. So the only one I could think of that I identified with was this gorgeous creature named Elizabeth Taylor, so she became my role model.
My parents listened to a lot of James Taylor and Hall and Oates. My mom and I used to listen to Liz Phair and Indigo Girls a lot in the car, too.
I want to add ‘record mogul’ to my list of accomplishments and make a disgusting amount of money so I can buy a house between Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus.
Elizabeth Taylor is gorgeous, beautiful, and she still is today, I’m crazy about her.
Since the age of 14, I have littered – excuse me, adorned – the Internet with Taylor Swift analyses.
After we covered Queen’s ‘Don’t Stop Me Now,’ Brian May and Roger Taylor sent us a bottle of champagne and asked us if we’d sing it on stage during the ‘We Will Rock You’ musical on what would have been Freddie Mercury’s 60th birthday.
And when I met Cecil Taylor it was a complete transformation of musical identities. All the tenets that I had grown up with were thrown out the window.
I got into shape because I took kick-boxing lessons every day to prepare for a fight scene with Taylor Lautner. I really wanted to lie down and eat Chinese food, but I kick-boxed every morning and ran. If someone was filming you with your kit off, you’d do the same thing.
There are a lot of similarities, even though we’re in two different businesses: There’s the Taylor Swift business and the Big Machine Label Group business, but there’s a huge intersection there. When we’re together, it’s limitless.
I guess I talk about her because I’m interested; I’m listening. Taylor Swift’s words are so valuable to so many young people, not just her #GirlSquad.
I don’t think the media circus has ever been a shock to my life seeing as I was with Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor when I was 17.
Taylor Swift is cool. And I like her music. She’s a great performer, and she’s fun to listen to at times.
You can’t write about an iconic Hollywood star of the sixties without bumping up against Elizabeth Taylor.
The ability to do this so quickly was largely due to the enthusiastic and efficient services of Mr. C.E. Taylor, who did all the machine work in our shop for the first as well as the succeeding experimental machines.
Our investigation found that Mattingly and Cosgrove were justified in their use of force after having been fired upon by Kenneth Walker. This justification bars us from pursuing charges in Ms. Breonna Taylor’s death.
I certainly understand the pain that has been brought about by the tragic death of Breonna Taylor. I understand that as a Black man.
I love a feelgood Taylor Swift or Katy Perry pop tune.
Taylor Swift – I can’t say enough good things about her. I admire her so much as a person and as a role model for young women.
