20 Rules Taylor Swift's Staff Has To Follow

Singers are known for being divas from time to time, but at least Taylor Swift has the talent to back it up!
Since she’s constantly at work writing music, recording and touring, it makes sense that this songbird has an army of staff to help her out. But you’ll be surprised by what they actually do for her!
From carrying her REAL handbag to hiding her in secret suitcases, there are some pretty strange tasks that Taylor Swift’s staff have to perform. And they all know the rules! Besides getting her Starbucks order right, everyone working for Taylor knows that they have to follow the signer’s strict set of instructions to make sure she stays on track with her song-writing work and busy schedule.
We knew that Taylor had some secrets up her sleeve, but did any of these wild staff rules surprise you?
Which of Taylor’s staff do you wish was on your payroll?! Let us know what you think in the comments, and subscribe to TheThings Celebrity for more about your favorite stars.

[@JoshPhoenix11]

You don't know if thats true or not. You have absolutely no idea if she's mean. Because if my strong suspicion is right, then she's covert mean and massively passive aggressive. Portraying one way to the outside world, and another way to her inside world. And if thats true, then none of her staff are going to say a word about it in fear of her finding out and firing them. Just look at the NDE. Because even if a staff member leaked something anonymously about Taylor, they would know that she would be able to weed them out and find out who it was. They would be too scared of her.

[@swill1020]

It’s tough being an assistant. You have to juggle so many things; dresses coming in, comments, organizing schedules not to mention knowing personal relationships etc. It’s tough balancing all of that. I’ve never done it before but I can respect the dedication and focus it requires to be successful; and on the others side of all of that is being the celebrity. Trying to be in so many different places at the same time and pleasing so many people as well. It’s tough. People think celebrity is an easy life but you are relinquishing your privacy and intimacy. As normal human beings we crave these things but we take them from celebrities. Love and adore, but from a far. If you are lucky enough to meet and expound on your admiration, do so respectfully….and as fully as you can. Those positive feelings are taken in and help to nurture and grow more art. Consider you and your admiration a seed, plant it with words and allow it to grow and move into another song you will hold onto, another thing that will give you hope, allow you to grow and flourish. Art shows us connection but also through it we can connect!!
