Taylor Swift reveals creepy nickname

Songstress Taylor Swift has revealed that Jack Antonoff, of Bleachers and fun. fame, gave her a creepy nickname after learning that she chipped a tooth on her microphone during a concert in Pittsburgh. 

Speaking to Antonoff, who co-wrote 'Out Of The Woods' with the country-pop sensation, as part of a joint interview for MTV News, Swift explained: "You call me ‘dead tooth’ more than you call me ‘Taylor.'"

He then replied that it's an entertaining term of endearment and he means well: “I just thought it was so funny — someone who really looked like they had their crap together — to be called ‘dead tooth'. Doesn’t it feel like the last thing that someone should call you? You just don’t look like a broken individual.”

Last summer, Swift told the Rolling Stone about the incident where she hit herself in the face with a microphone and admitted that part of her tooth fell out and landed on the stage:

"I really quickly pulled my mic up to sing and basically uppercut punched myself in the tooth and then part of it fell onto the stage, and I was like, "Oh, I wonder how bad that was. I wonder which tooth that is and I wonder how bad that is," and I was just trying not to chip another one tonight. I'm not doing anything about it. It's just gonna be a little bit jagged, I guess."
