Taylor Swift Answers 73 Interview Questions in Under 10 Minutes

By Tasha Ball | April 19, 2016

Far from the lights of Hollywood lies Taylor Swift’s shabby-chic Beverly Hills home (OK, so it’s not that far from Hollywood). And while we’re still dreaming of someday being invited to hang out in Tay’s humble abode, for now we’re happy to settle for her 10-minute interview with Vogue, set in her own house.

From her favorite foods to her best life advice, Taylor dished on all of the need-to-know info while giving a mini tour of her living room, piano room, and her backyard. (Fun game: Try to count all of the awards that appear in the background of this video.)

She cites vodka Diet Coke as her favorite cocktail, chicken tenders as her favorite food if calories didn’t count, and divulges that she always has hummus in the fridge. Swift also names a dolphin as her spirit animal because they’re very social and they travel in groups. (*Ahem, squad reference.)

Here are some other interesting takeaways from her interview.

What’s the one thing you wish you knew at 19?
If I could talk to my 19-year-old self I’d just say, “Hey, y’know you’re going to date just like a normal 20-something should be allowed to. But you’re going to be a national lightning rod for slut shaming.”

What do you think is the most important life lesson for someone to learn?
That karma is real.
