  1. Music celebrities, like Taylor Swift, often host a “meet and greet” before or after their concert. This is a time where fans can meet and take pictures with the celebrity. Although VIP tickets tend to be pretty expensive, they may be worth it if it means being able to meet Taylor Swift. [6]
    • You can find tour dates and VIP tickets on her official website or at VIP Nation.
    • You could also buy a VIP ticket to an event that Taylor will be attending, like a charity event, to get a chance to meet her.
  2. Taylor has been known to handpick devoted fans from the audience to hang out with her backstage after her concert. These are referred to as T-Parties. To stand out at her concerts, create posters, design t-shirts, and coordinate colorful outfits with your friends. You could also paint your face and bring glow sticks to the concert to increase your chances of getting noticed. [7]
    • For example, write on the posters, "I'm Your Biggest Fan," or "We Love You Taylor Swift."
    • Screen print a picture of Taylor Swift or a slogan like "I Love You Taylor" on a bunch of t-shirts to get noticed.
  3. If you know that Taylor will be a guest on a talk show, like the Tonight Show or Ellen: The Ellen DeGeneres Show , wait outside the stage door with your friends. Visit the talk show’s website to find out when the taping will begin. Try to arrive at least an hour early. [8]
    • Bring signs with you to get noticed, since there will probably be many more fans waiting to meet her as well.
    • You could also buy a ticket to the show or a taping of the show as an audience member. Sometimes audience members are picked to go on stage, which may increase your chances of meeting Taylor.
  4. In order to promote themselves, a celebrity will host a signing of their album or book. Buy a ticket to one of Taylor Swift’s album or book signing to get a chance to meet her. Contact the bookstore or venue ahead of time to confirm the event’s date and time. Also ask the venue about their autograph and photograph policies. [9]
    • Keep in mind that you may need to stand in line for a couple hours to get her autograph. Plan ahead of time so you can set aside a day or a certain amount of time to attend these events.
    • You can find out about these events by following her on social media, or by adding your email to her mailing list.

Meeting Taylor in Person

  1. Many celebrities do not have time for both, especially if there are a lot of fans around. So decide whether you would like a piece of memorabilia signed, or just a picture. If you are lucky, you may get both. [10]
    • If you want an autograph, bring a pen with you and ask Taylor to personalize it. Wanting an autograph personalized may increase your chances of getting it, since it signals to her that you are not trying to make money off of it.
  2. Most celebrities only have enough time for a quick, “Your work is very inspiring,” or “I’m a huge fan. I love your work!” Avoid planning a long speech about how she has inspired you. If you want to tell her something more, write a letter and give it to her when you meet her. She may read it when she has some downtime while traveling. [11]
    • Include your name and email or home address in the letter, if you would like a response from her.
  3. If you happen to spot Taylor while she is out enjoying a nice dinner with her family, it may be better to wait until the next time you spot her to ask for her autograph. If you do decide to approach her, respect her privacy if she declines your request. [12]
    • If she is out by herself or with friends, this is a good time to approach her.
  4. Instead of stating, “I want your photograph or autograph,” ask if she would be willing to take a picture with you or sign your album cover. Additionally, use formalities when addressing her until you are asked to address her informally. [13]
    • For example, “Hi, Ms. Swift, may I have your autograph? It would mean a lot to me,” or, “May I take a picture with you Ms. Swift? I am a huge fan.”
  5. Running over to her, screaming, or showing excessive adoration may turn her off, which may decrease your chances of getting her autograph or picture. Instead, walk up to her calmly, smile, and ask for her autograph politely. [14]
    • If she decides to sign your album cover or take a picture with you, show your appreciation by thanking her for her generosity and time.

    Connect to her through relatives and family reunions instead of going to an event and seeing her for a few seconds. Meeting her on the street or at an event wouldn't give you time to connect.
