For years, Taylor Swift has been breaking records in the music industry and winning awards for her singing and songwriting prowess.
And although you might know the words to all of her hit songs, there are a few things you may not know about the country-turned-pop singer.
Here are some interesting things you may not know about Swift:
1. She wrote every song on her third album, "Speak Now."
Swift has the opportunity to co-write songs with legends in the industry (like Max Martin, who helped write "Bad Blood" and "Blank Space"), but the lyrics for "Speak Now" are all her own.
"I wrote all the songs myself for this record," Swift shared in an online video chat with fans in 2010 as per CMT's report.
She continued, "It didn't really happen on purpose. It just sort of happened that way. I'd get my best ideas at 3 a.m. in Arkansas and didn't have a co-writer around and I'd just finish it. And that would happen again in New York; that would happen again in Boston; that would happen again in Nashville."
2. Swift grew up on a Christmas tree farm.
In a 2014 interview with Esquire, the singer said she grew up on a Christmas tree farm from ages 5 to 10.
"It was such a weird place to grow up. But it has cemented in me this unnatural level of excitement about fall and then the holiday season," she told the publication.
In 2019 she even released a Christmas song called "Christmas Tree Farm" and the video is comprised of clips from her childhood.
3. She wrote a book when she was a teenager.
In a 2015 cover story interview with GQ, Swift said that at 14 she wrote a novel titled "A Girl Named Girl" and her parents still have a copy of it.
4. She appeared on an episode of "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" in 2009.
In 2009, Swift appeared on an episode of "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation." Her character ended up getting murdered.
5. She was the maid of honor at her childhood friend's wedding.
In 2016, Swift returned to her hometown of Reading, Pennsylvania, for the wedding of her childhood friend Britany Maack.
Vogue reported that, during her maid of honor speech, Swift said, "Real love doesn't mess with your head. Real love just is. Real love just endures. Real love maintains. Real love takes it page by page."
6. She rode horses as a kid.
In a 2016 interview with Vogue, Swift shared that her mom had aspirations for her to be a horseback rider.
Because of that, Swift rode competitively until she was 12 years old and told her mom she didn't share her passion.
7. Some of her lyrics are things she's wanted to text people in real life.
When songwriting, Swift said she sometimes is inspired by writing lyrics that are "burns."
"Sometimes the lines in a song are lines you wish you could text-message somebody in real life," Swift said in a Rolling Stone interview in 2014. "I would just be constantly writing all these zingers — like, 'Burn. That would really get her.'"
8. After her concerts, she sometimes watches "Friends."
The singer-songwriter has shared that "Friends" is her favorite show that's currently not on the air.
In 2015, she told GQ that after performing to crowds of tens of thousands and meeting fans, she likes to go home and has a mini-marathon.
9. She said she wrote "Blank Space" quickly but "All Too Well" took the most time to write.
In the 2016 Vogue's 73 Questions With Taylor Swift, Swift revealed that "Blank Space" took the least amount of time to write, "'cause [she'd] written a lot of the lines down already in the year preceding the session," but "All too Well" took the longest to write.
"It's a really emotional song, I kept putting it down for months on end," Swift explained.
10. She's got her go-to drive-thru order down.
In the same interview with Vogue, when asked what she'd order at a drive-thru, Swift answered said she'd order a cheeseburger, fries, and a chocolate shake.
