Taylor Swift shows ‘sex symbols’ not only way to success

Washington: It may appear that without sex appeal a star cannot prosper, but country singer Taylor Swift has proved it wrong by winning six Teen Choice Awards last month that makes her the most honoured winner in the history of the show.

Many critics believe that the singer’s amazing success run shows that explicit ‘sex symbols’ and bad behaviour aren’t necessarily what people are attracted to.

“Taylor is a prime example that young women do not need to use overt sex appeal to be successful,” pop culture commentator Rachelle Friberg told Fox News.

“When so many stars are selling their sexuality as an attempt to garner fame, it is refreshing to see a young starlet of Swift’s caliber rise above the pressure of selling one’s body in order to sell records.

“Taylor is a breath of fresh air and shows young people that it is okay for them to savior their innocence and feel comfortable in their own skin.

“Instead of succumbing to the pressures of Hollywood, Swift’s wholesome image is one of the things that entices so many of her fans to flock out and buy her albums and attend her concerts,” she added.
