Taylor Swift's anxiety over album sales

Country-pop singer Taylor Swift has said that she still suffers from “anxiety” over her album sales.

Speaking to Billboard.com, the 20-year-old multi-platinum artist revealed that she regularly worries about how many copies her records are selling and tries to “predict” her projected sales figures:

“I have a lot of anxiety about things on certain days. It’s a five-minute conversation about if a number really defines this piece of art that I’ve created and what that means.”

She added: “Then I realise that I can’t predict what [the sales figure] is going to be, and I sit there and say something to myself like, ‘Well, you’re happy today. Enjoy this and be proud of the music that you’ve made’.”
