Are musicians like Taylor Swift done with the celebrity profile?
The q This music panel takes a look at why some musicians are no longer sitting down for big interviews and choosing instead to write about themselves.
Every Friday, the q This panel looks at the biggest stories in music news. Today, CBC arts reporter Lisa Christiansen and freelance writer A. Harmony join Tom Power to talk about Elle Magazine's latest article about Taylor Swift, written by Swift herself.
In the article, Swift talks openly about some of the lessons she's learned in life so far, just ahead of her 30th birthday. She's not the first big pop star to take control of what's being said about her in the press, but it does raise some questions. Could this the end of the big celebrity interview?
