Taylor Swift dreamt to be a stock broker
London: Country star Taylor Swift says she wanted to be a stock broker as a child. The 21-year-old wanted to give out investment tips as a financial advisor, like her father Scott, Contactmusic reported. “Ever since I was a little kid… my dad has been telling me to save my money or invest in utilities. Because my dad is a stock broker. And he lives and breathes it. My dad is so passionate about what he does, like in the way that I’m passionate about music. “I didn’t know what a stock broker was when I was eight but I would just tell everybody that’s what I was going to be. I don’t know… I just saw how happy it made him and I just thought, like, ‘I can broke stocks,” Swift said. (PTI)

The 46-year-old star feels that having children means life can be tougher. (IANS)
I created jewellery for fun: Jolie
London: Actress Angelina Jolie says she created her jewellery line for “fun”. “Yeah, I did it for fun. The proceeds go to the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict, a foundation I started with Gene Sperling. I like certain types of jewellery I wasn’t finding, big chunky stones with gold,? contactmusic.com quoted the 36-year-old as saying. Jolie launched her own range of accessories “Style of Jolie” earlier this year. I worked with a designer, saying, ‘If I had an ideal ring, it would look like this.’ Or, ‘I’d love a pair of earrings that look that.’ But I never wear jewellery… unless I go to a premiere. I’m the worst,” she added. (IANS)
