Taylor Swift struggling with fame

Swift is struggling to maintain a normal life.

London: Country singer Taylor Swift has admitted she is often left confused by the strains of maintaining a normal life alongside her stardom.The `Love Story` singer says she is often left confused by the pressures of dealing with her music career combined with trying to retain normality away from her professional life, Contactmusic reported.

"Sometimes I feel like I lead a double life. One minute I`ll be negotiating a contract and the next I`ll be at home with my friends," Swift said. "It`s always been like that, even at school. I went to class, studied for tests and had crushes on boys, and then after school I`d go downtown to Music Row in Nashville and write songs," she added. Despite having so much to juggle, the 20-year-old star insists she never crumbles under stress. "I do have days where I just don`t want to get out of bed because there`s so much to do but they don`t happen very often. "The pressure never really gets to me. I`ve always loved there being a little bit of pressure on me to succeed. I thrive on that." PTI
