A Birthday and a Beach

SITTING in front of the keyboard and the screen on the December evening of Saturday the thirteenth, I reflect upon another phenomenal year for Miss Taylor Alison Swift, pictured above, who is celebrating her Birthday on this day. This blog celebrated Miss Swift's Birthday on this date in 2013 too, which is the marker from where we will take a look at Taylor's incredible year. Miss Swift had performed at the 2013 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, where she smashed it with a live performance of I Knew You Were Trouble. Taylor Alison was in the final stages of the RED Tour in Australia as 2013 became 2014, the Tour visiting the O2 Arena in London for four sold out nights, as well as a whistle stop tour of Europe, as Winter became Spring.

At this point, Taylor was, as we now know, busy working on the new album, whilst taking a beach holiday, which was featured here on RFTFT recently - The 'Looking for Easter Eggs' photograph. It was Taylor's much anticipated Yahoo! Livestream web broadcast in early August that gave Taylor the moment to shine in front of her international audience, unveiling the album 1989 and the single, Shake It Off. The single became available to purchase, whilst the album became available on pre-sale. The television and radio promotional tour followed, including UK visits to BBC Radio 1, The Graham Norton Show on BBC 1 and Alan Carr: Chatty Man on Channel 4, as well as The X Factor on ITV 1. 1989 was released worldwide in late October, the packaging of the physical CD includes a cover slipcase and a set of 'Photo's from Taylor'. The album entered the charts at number one.

To complete the circle, Taylor performed at the 2014 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, performing Blank Space and Style, whilst dressing appropriately for the occasion, that is, short, skimpy and sheer.

Townsend's Mexico - Part Four!

MISS ROXANNE Townsend visited Mexico in Spring 2014 and here is another image that she shared on social media, which received a very true comment of  "Why is this face and body not on every billboard poster, coffee table magazine cover and TV show?"

I think you would agree; Red Hot Roxi is so sexy.

Enjoy.
