Taylor Swift is approaching her thirties with a healthier outlook.

The 29-year-old singer will celebrate her 30th birthday on Friday (13.12.19) and is ''feeling a bit more secure'' as she approaches the milestone.

During a video interview with British Vogue's Editor in Chief, Edward Enninful, Taylor said: ''I'm really excited about it. I've heard really good things about your thirties. Feeling a bit more secure ... a bit.''

And Taylor believes her age has helped her to analyse ''toxic messages'' about her body and improve her relationship with body positivity.

She added: ''One thing going into my thirties that I'm really stoked about is I now can really recognise and diagnose toxic messages being sent to me by society, by culture about my body. I'm a woman, I'm not a coat hanger. I need to feel healthy in my life, and I need to take pleasure in food, and I need to not use my body as an exercise of control when I feel out of control in my life.''


She added: ''I'm really excited about thirty. Now I get to choose when I work, I get to choose the things that I wanna work on and I don't take that for granted ever because there were times when I played hundreds of shows in a year and I was like 17-years-old. I would get exhausted and burnt out and now I can work the amount I know I am capable of handling, which is an extreme luxury, I know that.''

The 'Lover' hitmaker praised her years as a twenty-something for being really ''fun'' but also helping her to discover who she truly is.

She explained: ''Twenties were really, really fun but I also equate my twenties to walking into a costume shop and trying on all these different outfits. Then walking out of the costume shop in regular clothes and being like, 'I'm cool with who I am.'''
