Taylor Swift sends her fans gifts

Taylor Swift feels really lucky to have so many wonderful fans all over the world and to say thanks to her most loyal admirers for their support she sends them gifts at Christmas.

The 25-year-old pop superstar feels blessed to have such committed followers and to say thanks she tries to send as many of them presents at Christmas as she can.

When asked how she relates to her most committed fans, she said: ''It's really not difficult. I know as soon as I say such a thing that it will make it a bit more difficult for other artists, because then they have to go on the Internet and get to know their fans more.

Now I can afford it, I buy Christmas presents for my fans and I send gifts to my fans all over the world.'' The 'Style' singer - who is dating Calvin Harris - admits she really enjoys connecting with her fans on social media.

Taylor tries to speak to her followers one-on-one on Twitter because then she feels like she's building meaningful relationships with the people who buy her music and go and see her perform.

Speaking to Germany's Glamour magazine, she said: ''Connecting to my fans keeps me mentally healthy, when I connect with individual fans it feels less overwhelming than if I connect with thousands of fans at a time. If you see these fans in groups then are millions.

But if you see them as individuals it's much cooler to do your job because then it really means something to you.''
