Taylor Swift took over Los Angeles\u2019 Hollywood Boulevard on Thursday night (October 23) when she promoted her new album \u201c1989\u201d on \u201cJimmy Kimmel Live!\u201d After having an interview with host Jimmy Kimmel, the country-turned-pop singer treated a crowd of nearly 15,000 fans outside \u201cKimmel\u201d studio to the live performances of some songs from the LP. \nSwift took the stage in a black crop top and a pair of matching pants. In addition to singing the chart-topping \u201cShake It Off\u201d as thousands of fans screamed, the 24-year-old superstar delivered the first live rendition of \u201cOut of the Woods\u201d which was allegedly inspired by her ex-boyfriend Harry Styles.
\nDuring the interview with Kimmel, Swift talked about her first visit to the ABC late-night show as well as her \u201c1989\u201d album. Kimmel recalled the moment when young Swift came to the show with her guitar and asked Scott Igoe, who booked the musical acts for the show, if she could play a song for him.
\n\u201cHe said, \u2018No, you can\u2019t be in the greenroom, we serve alcohol here. You\u2019re too young. You have to go.\u2019 So he threw her out. He threw Taylor Swift out of our building,\u201d Kimmel said.
\nSwift then said, \u201cAll\u2019s well that ends well because I think of it like this: I think you probably would have gotten in more trouble with Jimmy had he wandered out and been like, \u2018Why is there this random 14-year-old tiny child sitting here with a guitar case? What\u2019s happening here?\u2019 \u201c
\n\u201c1989\u201d, Swift\u2019s fifth studio album and her first pop effort, is due out on October 27. The \u201cRed\u201d hitmaker also told Kimmel that she\u2019s more confident about this album than any of her previous full-lengths.
\n\u201cBut it\u2019s almost like you\u2019re releasing this thing into the world that you spent two years with, and it\u2019s just been mine for two years and now it\u2019s everybody else\u2019s. You know, sending it off to college,\u201d she explained. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
