  • Christmas came early this year for Taylor Swift fans when she released her new app "The Swift Life," in early December. The app is designed to give fans access to exclusive content, photos, and videos, and is a social network for fans to connect with each other and even Swift herself.

    对霉霉粉(Taylor Swift)来说,今年圣诞节来得特别早,霉霉在12月初就发布了自己的软件应用“霉生活(The Swift Life)”。这款应用为粉丝提供霉霉的独家信息、照片和视频,同时粉丝也能用这款社交软件彼此交流,甚至能和霉霉本人聊天。

    One fan, named Stephanie, used the app to share the story of when the "Reputation" singer bought her a house:

    一位叫史蒂芬妮(Stephanie)的粉丝在软件上分享了霉霉为她买了套房子的故事:

    “I’ve been contemplating1 posting this story for a while. I’ve finally decided2 to tell you all what Taylor did for me this night. What many of you don’t know is that for 8 months of my pregnancy3 I was homeless. Long story short our first flat was condemned4 for health and safety reasons and we lost everything. To add to the stress, during this time Matthew lost his job.”

    “我一直在思考要不要写下这个故事,最后决定告诉大家霉霉今天为我做了什么。在怀孕的八个月里,我无家可归。简单说,我们的第一个家被宣称存在安全健康隐患,无法居住,雪上加霜的是马修还失业了致使我们两人一无所有。”

    “My mum told Taylor and just asked her to make me feel special at her show I was attending in Manchester. After the show Taylor took us back to her dressing5 room where she told me, ‘Stephanie, You’ve been in my life for a long time and you’ve never asked me for anything. You could have reached out and I would have helped you. But you didn’t. Your mum told me..’

    “我妈妈告诉霉霉,希望她能在曼切斯特的表演上让我感到自己是独特的。表演结束后霉霉带我们到她的换衣间,跟我说‘史蒂芬妮,你支持了我这么久,却没要过任何回报。你本来可以向我索要,我也会帮你。但是你一次都没有这样做过。’”

    “She told me she wanted to give me the money back for my ticket that night. What she actually did was help us buy a home and all I needed for my baby. She told me, ‘I want you to be able to enjoy your little girl, not have to worry about all this stuff.’

    “霉霉告诉我想把那天演出的门票钱退给我,但她其实帮我买了一套房子和各种婴儿用品。霉霉说:‘希望你好好珍惜和小孩在一起的时光,不用为其他事情发愁。’”

    Already, the app is bringing forward such sweet stories about Swift. We're sure there are plenty more to come.

    显然这款软件已经发掘了不少有关霉霉的甜蜜往事,让我们期待更多的故事。
