Insiders reveal the mastermind behind Taylor Swift's lucrative career... a 'laser-focused strategist' hellbent on her success


As Taylor Swift faces having her deeply personal texts with Blake Lively exposed in court - one very protective figure is stepping in to shield her privacy.

It's singer's father, Scott Swift, who is now gearing up to push back against a judge's recent decision allowing Justin Baldoni access to the messages as part of his ongoing legal battle with Lively, Daily Mail has learned. Scott Swift's recent move is consistent with the iron hand he's used to steer Taylor's career since she was a kid playing local gigs and karaoke bars around Wyomissing, Pennsylvania – and sources tell the Daily Mail he'll probably do whatever it takes to continue to run interference for his daughter in the Lively-Baldoni legal mess. The Taylor Swift origin story includes tales of her traveling to Music Row in Nashville as a kid of 11, knocking on doors asking for a record deal while her mother, Andrea, and younger brother, Austin, waited in the car.
