American Idol judge and music oracle Simon Cowell once said “Not everybody is perfect, and I don't think we should be looking for perfect people.” Taylor Swift may not be perfect, but she's managed to become one of the biggest pop stars in just a few years.
She moves like how you would imagine a tall, slim and slender girl would, a little awkward, a little stiff but Swift pulls it off like an ingeune in a stage production. At only 24, Swift is showing signs of a great performer, one with the determination, discipline and dedication to her art — much like pre-breakdown Britney Spears.
Swift was put to the test most during choreographed segments that required her to move while singing live. If you look hard enough, you can almost see the concentration on her face, but she wipes it off quite quickly with a cheeky smile.
Channeling a bit of Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz — except she's obviously out of Kansas, The Red Tour is a dynamic, energetic and theatrical two-hour long fairytale. For 'The Lucky One', Swift brought the audience to a Victoria era with Victorian costumes and wigs. She also delivered certified Triple platinum single 'We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together', with stilt walkers and exploding confetti.
Usually surrounded by dancers and backup dancers, Swift is clever to put the focus on the show more than her voice. As a singer, Taylor's range has clearly improved, however her voice still isn't powerful enough and is often drowned out by the live band.
Swift is most at home when she’s got a guitar or piano, and a stool to sit on. She did a few acoustic versions throughout the night stripped down; the sincerity in the singer's voice is magnified and the audience laps it up while trying not to squeal.
At one point during the concert, the leggy pop star walks through a sea of young adoring fans trying to high-five as many as possible.
According to Billboard, her latest album Red sold 1.2 million copies during its first week making it one of the largest sales weeks for any artist in the last decade. Her concerts are selling out all around the world. But she hasn't let any of that go to her head, for Swift has only one thing on her mind, and that’s her fans.
