Taylor Swift's Luckiest Unlucky Number

Posted: April 3rd, 2009 at 1:32 pm  |  By: Alison Bonaguro  

Taylor SwiftOn Thursday night's (April 2) Tonight Show, Jay Leno asked Taylor Swift about the upcoming ACM Awards show. And if she had any good luck charms. She does, and it's the number 13. Swift gave Leno a handful of examples to prove how lucky that unlikely number has been for her: She was born on the 13th, she turned 13 on Friday the 13th, her first album went gold in 13 weeks, her first No. 1 song had a 13-second intro, when she's won awards she's always been seated in the 13th row (or row M), and when she was sound-checking at the CMA Awards, the producer told her, "All right, we're gonna go in 13 seconds." And, she pointed out to Leno, the last time she played the Tonight Show was on the 13th (of February 2007). With all the good things that Swift has achieved having that number on her side, I think it no longer deserves its bad reputation.

    I saw the interview last night. That sure was alot of 13’s. So typical for a teen to notice all of that. She looked great. I really liked that she did not have her cowboy boots on. Her legs are so skinny with them and when she wears a dress with cowboys boots it just does not look right. Anyway, her performance was good but I couldn’t get why she kept swinging her hair around with that sultry look. I think she is alittle too young for that move. Oh well thats my “13″ cents! LOL

    I was actually there at the show and I think that it sounded better actually there live than when I watched it later online.
    It was a great interview and show! Way to go Taylor!
    Ben Affleck was very funny also. :D

    It was a great interview and performance! Personaly I love the cowboy boots with her dresses.

    As far as Taylor “swinging her hair around with that sultry look” you have to remember she isn’t a kid any longer. She is going to be 20 in a few months.

    As far as the #13 being her good luck charm, I hope she gets seated in row 13 or ‘M’ at the ACMs on Sunday! :)

    Hey,
    I have to agree with the # 13 being lucky. It has always been my favorite and my luckiest number.

    Lucky Indeed.. It’s all merchandising for the young.

    The “sulty look” “swinging hair around” but Music is about Talent, like in VOICE!
