In an interview with Elle during the release of her 2015 album, 1989, she shared details about her mindset regarding the choices she has made as a public persona and how it has all been her own doing rather than a committee or team of PR dictating her behavior.

The Shake It Off singer also talked about her decision to be completely authentic even if it garners criticism or trolling. Additionally how growing up in the spotlight has trained her in ways to handle fame better. This growth in her character is clearly visible
