Kesuksesan Taylor Swift di dunia musik sepertinya memang membuatnya mampu membeli apapun yang ia mau. Baru-baru ini Taylor telah membeli rumah mewah seharga $ 17 juta atau setara Rp.165 Milyar lebih.
Rumah yang terletak di pinggir pantai di Rhode Island ini awalnya di buka dengan harga yang lebih tinggi, yakni Rp.194 Milyar, namun Taylor berhasil mendapatkannya dengan harga lebih rendah dari penawaran awal.
Rumah baru Penyany Hits '22' tersebut berada tepat di pinggir samudera Atlantik. Dengan 7 kamar tidur, 9 kamar mandi, 8 perapian dan garasi yang sanggup memuat 5 mobil sekaligus. Pemandangan sekitar pantai semakin melengkapi keindahan rumah yang berada diatas 5 hektar tanah tersebut. Rumah ini juga di lengkapai dengan kolam renang out door dengan ukuran besar. Swift merencanakan rumah ini akan di pakai untuk berlibur bersama kelaurganya.
Sebelumnya Taylor juga telah memiliki sebuah rumah di Beverly Hills, California, serta apartemen di Nashville, Tennessee, yang merupakan tempat tinggal utamanya. Kini rumah baru Taylor di Rhode Island semakin melengkapi investasi cerdas yang dimiliki penyanyi yang tahun lalu berpendapatan lebih dari $57 juta versi Forbes ini. Taylor pun membayar rumah ini secara cash, dengan membayar via wire transfer kepada agen penjual rumah ini. Taylor pun terlihat sedang melihat-lihat rumah barunya ini pada hari Sabtu 27/4 lalu.
Dulu, saat berpacaran dengan cucu Robert.F. Kennnedy, Connor, Taylor sempat membeli sebuah rumah berdekatan dengan rumah keluarga Kennedy di Hyannis Port, Massachusetts, namun setelah keduanya putus, Swift memutuskan untuk menjual rumah itu. Berarti sampai sekarang, Swift sudah 4 kali membeli rumah.

Diva musik Country, Shania Twain akhirnya kembali menggelar konser spesial sebagai ajang Comeback-nya ke dunia musik setelah 8 tahun menghilang. Selama 8 tahun terakhir, Shania memang memilih vakum sesaat dari dunia musik karena mengalami gangguan pita suara dan masalah perceraiannya dengan Robert John 'Mutt' Lange, yang sempat membuat hidupnya hancur.
Shania melakukan aksi Comeback-nya dengan sempurna dalam konser 'Shania: Still the One' di Colosseum, Caesars Palace, Las Vegas, Amerika pada hari Sabtu, 1 Desember lalu. Dalam usia 47 tahun, Shania masih terlihat seksi dan ber-stamina dalam balutan Catsuit hitam metalik, dan Boots hitam. Tak banyak yang berubah darinya, masih terlihat cantik dengan suara khas nya.
Peraih 5 kali Grammy ini menyanyikan Hits-hits lama miliknya seperti 'You're Still The One', 'That Dont Impress Me Much', 'From This Moment On', dll.
'Thank you so much! Kalian semua membuatku jadi terharu, malam ini sangat luar biasa, sudah lama sekali sejak terakhir aku tampil disini. Aku merindukan tempat ini. Terima kasih' Ujar Shania.
Penyanyi yang telah menjual lebih dari 75 Juta album di seluruh dunia ini sempat beberapa kali berganti kostum dalam konser nya yang berlangsung selama kurang lebih 100 menit itu. Kostum-kostum yang dipakai malam itu, adalah kostum lama yang pernah di pakai Shania di Video Klip 'That Don't Impress Me Much' dan 'Man! I Feel Like a Woman', namun di design ulang. Rencananya, Shania sudah di kontrak untuk mengadakan konser di tempat yang sama sampai dua tahun kedepan.
Tahun 2011 lalu, Shania sempat merilis album The Best nya, dengan hits 'Today Is Your Day', dan rencananya, album terbaru milik penyanyi bernama asli Eilleen Regina Edwards ini juga sedang dalam proses produksi.
Yess... She's Still The One !

On what inspired her to get involved in the USO tour :
"I comes from a military family. My grandfather is a retired Marine, and I've always had a great deal of respect for anyone who serves our country. It really does take someone special to sacrifice everything. I don't mean just their lives, either. There are men who are sacrificing the chance to hold their newborn baby!"

On her tattoos :
"My grandmother would be mortified if she knew I had these. She's passed away now, but she would say, 'Tattoos are the devil!' So my first tattoo, of course, was my grandma's name. I also have stars on my left arm for my USO tours, but I'm missing two."

On whether small town girls can be trouble :
"We might be, but we can also talk out way out of it. A country girl can talk her way out of a ticket. Not that I've ever been pulled over..."

Isu tentang Orientasi Sexual sang jawara American Idol Season 1, Kelly Clarkson yang beredar awal tahun lalu, dengan tegas, kembali dibantah Kelly.
Saat tampil sebagai Cover majalah "Lucky" edisi Agustus, Kelly kembali menegaskan dia bukan Lesbian.
Ketika berita ini beredar pertama kalinya, Kelly pernah menanggapi rumor tersebut dalam sebuah wawancara :
"Oh, ada banyak rumor bahwa aku seorang lesbian ... aku punya pacar
sekarang, Brandon Blackstock, anak manajerku, Narvel, anak tiri Reba
McEntire?" Begitu Kata Kelly.
''Aku tidak tahu mengapa orang berpikir seperti itu. Aku tidak pernah mencium perempuan. Aku rasa itu sangat konyol.'' Ujar nya.
On being more country than pop :
"Even though I’m a pop singer, I really have more the life of a country singer. I put on the Hank Williams and the Patsy Cline and the Rosemary Clooney on vinyl — I’m not trying to be some cool indie-rock person, I just love the way it sounds—and throw on a T-shirt and jeans. In Texas, we practically come out of the womb in jeans."

On the new man in her life :
"Oh, there’s all these rumors that I’m a lesbian. I have a boyfriend now, Brandon Blackstock, my manager Narvel’s son, Reba McEntire’s stepson? I just had my 30th birthday and we went turkey shooting. It’s what I wanted to do, so we went."

On her TV gig 'Duets' :
"Last week, one of the Duets contestants was crying. She said, ‘I gave everything up to come here, and I’m scared.’ I thought back to Idol and how I didn’t know much except that I was scared, and that I had nothing left to lose. I told her, ‘That fear? It’s your power in this situation. Use it, because it’s your fire."

Carrie Underwood tampil sebagai cover terbaru majalah Glamour edisi Juni 2012.
On her new album, Blown Away :
"There’s a happy-go-lucky feeling to some of it: A nice spring day, put the top down, turn it up, enjoy the world. But there’s a darker feeling too. We kill a couple people. It wouldn’t be a Carrie Underwood album without a revenge song on it. People really like when I do that. I don’t mean to. I don’t hate men that much. But it turns out so well!"

On the song writing process :
"I’m not a creative person who’s up until 4:00 A.M., writing songs and being weird. I write with people, sharing stories, catching up. I feel I could easily sit down and write a song by myself, but when you get three people, different emotions pour out, and you take them all, round them up, and make them into one coherent thought."

On what she wishes were different about her voice :
"I’m
competitive. When I hear somebody else do something I can’t, it drives
me nuts. Steven Tyler–that screamy thing he does? I can’t do that. I
have too much control over my voice. Or people like Mariah Carey, who
can do whistle tones [notes that are at the highest point of the vocal
register]. I’ve tried, but I can’t train myself to do it."
On whether or not she could write a country song about her fame and fortune :
“With no irony? I don’t think so, because country music is for real people. I think it would be very hard to write about my Louboutins. Do you know what I mean? My giant house, it’s not relatable. But my husband came from a small town and hardworking parents like I did, and I don’t think we’ve lost the mind-set. We don’t have a bowling alley in our basement. We don’t have houses on the beach and one in New York and one in L.A. I drive a three-year-old Ford Escape Hybrid. We don’t care about stuff like that.”

On the everyday chores she insists on doing herself, and those she’d rather pass off :"I love to be at the grocery store. It makes me happy to have a full fridge and a full pantry. I hate sending my laundry out. I don’t like the thought of other people washing my clothes. What am I happy not doing? Lawn care. And I have a business manager who pays my bills. I did all that myself in college, but I only had one credit card back then."
On being in a relationship with her husband, Mike Fisher, in the public eye:
“A plus is, he knew what to expect. In Canada he was a big celebrity, so he knows what it’s like living under a microscope. And he travels a lot, which is good for both of us. We’re both independent people, so we can’t have somebody around 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The drawback is that we can go weeks without seeing each other. But he’s the only guy I’ve never had to worry about. Any guy I’ve ever dated, there would always be that doubt: ‘He didn’t answer his phone. What’s he doing? It’s late.’ I’m not the crazy-girlfriend type, but there was a little voice in the back of my head. I don’t have to worry about Mike. I don’t think twice. He’s going out? I don’t care; it doesn’t bother me. I don’t bat an eye.”
