Taylor Swift kept her promise and to meet with fans at Sunday’s CMA Music Festival. She took over Bridgestone Arena in Nashville for what was supposed to be a 13-hour signing event that featured a peek behind the curtain of the superstar’s tour trappings, such as her bus, backstage “tea party,” wardrobe and set pieces, reports Lucas Hendrickson. Alongside bracelets gifted to her by fans, Swift had fans write numbers on her arm marking how many hours she had been signing autographs. “It’ll be interesting to see how many numbers I have at the end of the night,” Swift says. “It’s so much fun because they’re all so nice and they say really sweet things. I’m so proud of my team for putting together an event that was exactly what I had in my mind.” In the end, she wound up extending the session for nearly 15 hours, meeting some 2,000 fans. – Ann Oldenburg
