[Italian] - Taylor Swift. La biografia

"Una ragazza di provincia con un incredibile talento, e la forza e la determinazione di realizzare il suo Sogno: Taylor Swift si è trasformata da giovane promessa della musica country a megastar globale. La rivista Time l'ha proclamata 'Persona dell'anno' nel 2023. Il suo undicesimo album, The Tortured Poets Department, è il primo nella storia a raggiungere un miliardo di stream su Spotify. Sembra che non esista record che Taylor Swift non è in grado di infrangere. Ma come è arrivata da una contea della Pennsylvania ai palcoscenici di tutto il mondo? E come ha affrontato il contraccolpo di questa fama stratosferica? Completamente aggiornato e ricchissimo di dettagli affascinanti, Taylor Swift: la biografiaracconta il percorso musicale e personale di Taylor, mettendo in luce la sua sensibilità e capacità di instaurare un rapporto unico con i suoi fan, che lei è capace di far sentire interlocutori privilegiati. Ma anche la sua mentalità da impavida donna d'affari che ha sfidato la discografia tradizionale reincidendo i propri album, con una mossa di emancipazione ed empowerment senza precedenti. Dalla prima chitarra ricevuta a otto anni alle sfide che ha incontrato sulla strada del successo, dalle evoluzioni dei suoi outfit agli attacchi mediatici, dalle relazioni con compagni famosi come Harry Styles, Joe Alwyn e Travis Kelce fino al The Eras Tour, che celebra i suoi primi vent'anni di carriera: un libro imperdibile per tutti gli Swifties. Era dopo era, album dopo album, Taylor Swift non ha mai smesso di sognare in grande, emozionarsi e far emozionare. Questa è la sua storia… fino a oggi. «Non importa quante canzoni scrivi su una rottura, non importa quante volte stai male: ti innamorerai sempre di nuovo… Credo che, a volte, quando scrivi canzoni d'amore, non le scrivi su ciò che stai vivendo in quel momento, ma su ciò che avresti voluto vivere.»"

"Interviewer: "Does it make you laugh when people think you're stupid?" Paris Hilton: "Yeah, I laugh all the way to the bank. It's not the way I am." The subject of intense media and public fascination, Paris Hilton is one of the most-discussed celebrities of her generation. From the teenage party girl who was 'famous for being famous' she has blossomed into an actress, pop star and successful businesswoman. "Paris Hilton: Life On The Edge" shows how the heiress made such a success of her life and reveals that far from being an 'airhead', she is a shrewd, determined and hardworking woman. Not that she's afraid of letting her hair down: taking the reader behind-the-scenes of Paris' glamorous life, the book is your all-access pass to the most exclusive fashion shows, premieres and parties. This revealing portrait covers the string of famous men she has dated including actor Leonardo DiCaprio and Backstreet Boy Nick Carter. Her list of friends is just as star-studded including Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan and Nicole Richie, who co-starred with Paris in the hit reality television show The Simple Life. Lifting the lid on the controversies that have plagued her life, the book tells for the first time the full story of the 2003 sex-tape saga and her imprisonment for driving offences in 2007. Defying her critics, Paris emerged from jail with a fresh sense of perspective and renewed energy. "Paris Hilton: Life On The Edge" offers a unique insight into her complex character and shows that jail was the making not the breaking of her."
