Taylor “I wouldn’t be a singer if I weren’t a songwriter” Swift has been named Billboard’s 2014 Woman of the Year, the second time she’s been honored with the title. She’s only on the brink of 25 (her birthday is December 13th), but already she’s had 5 number 1 hit albums, including the record-breaking 1989 which was released just over a month ago. Featured on the cover of their Women in Music issue (released December 5th), Billboard spoke to Taylor about making her first pop album, how she came to be BFF’s with so many other celebrities, and on writing her own rules.
