1
We have had a lot of fun with our first guest over the years.
2
Take a look.
3
Our next guest has had the number one album on the country charts for a record 10 weeks in a row.
4
Please welcome Taylor Swift.
5
That's what people say.
6
That's what people say.
7
I've gone on too many days.
8
Your musical crush, somebody in the business.
9
Oh, Justin Timberlake.
10
Justin Timberlake is your favorite.
11
Justin!
12
Just a kid, I can't play,
13
I can't play, I can't play.
14
That's the best surprise ever.
15
This is the best day ever.
16
Yeah.
17
That's great.
18
Finish this statement.
19
I am Taylor blank.
20
I think just like birth certificate wise, it's Swift.
21
Like I am Ellen blank.
22
I am Ellen DeGeneres.
23
I am Ellen DeGeneres and I am married to Portia De Rossi.
24
I am Taylor Swift.
25
I am dating blank.
26
Nobody.
27
That's true though.
28
I'm Taylor Swift, and my publicist told me to say blank.
29
My publicist told me not to answer any personal questions.
30
Now we're getting somewhere.
31
Kitty Corner is a show for people who love cats.
32
And we'll answer your questions about cats.
33
Yeah.
34
You can call us with your questions.
35
And we can call it cat calls.
36
Or look what the cat called in.
37
Every single time I come on this show,
38
it's really weird, really weird.
39
All because of Ellen.
40
I've been on this show eight times now,
41
and I still remember Ellen hiding in the bathroom.
42
With a hidden camera, and she scared me so bad.
43
I'm sorry as I could die.
44
You got that dream, dream,
45
day, dream, look in your eye,
46
and I got the best.
47
Taylor!
48
Taylor!
49
I'm not going to touch it down.
50
We come back.
51
I'm not going to touch it down.
52
Why did you do that?
53
I'm not going to touch it down.
54
Up in the air.
55
Being on Ellen's show is one of the best.
56
Monotone like that.
57
Being on the Ellen Show is one of the best experiences you can have.
58
Now laugh in a monotone way.
59
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
60
Yes.
61
That was an amazing montage.
62
I know.
63
And that's, no, no one's in there.
64
OK.
65
We're not going to do it to you today.
66
It's not amateur hour.
67
No, no. I'm not going to,
68
because I can't top how I did it the first time.
69
You were the best scare.
70
Well, I don't know.
71
Sarah Paulson was pretty good too, but.
72
That was a near death experience.
73
It kind of was.
74
You went down.
75
Yeah.
76
Were there injuries?
77
There were several ways I could have died.
78
Well, now you're being dramatic.
79
Yeah.
80
Yeah.
81
No, that's extreme.
82
Yeah.
83
I really just was watching that backstage.
84
And I was just thinking like,
85
thank you so much for going so above and beyond to make people happy.
86
Yeah.
87
Well.
88
That's not a good example of it.
89
No, no. But.
90
No, you could have hit your head on the toilet.
91
It was funny afterward.
92
You did this laugh afterward that I have found myself,
93
I loved the sound so much that I found myself doing it sometimes when I laugh hard enough.
94
You went .
95
You went .
96
And you couldn't breathe.
97
That's how happy I was.
98
That's how happy you were to see me fall down like that.
99
Yes, yes.
100
And now you do it too, you said.
101
It's caught on.
102
Yeah.
103
It's a great sound.
104
If you go back and watch it on YouTube, listen for her laugh.
105
And then who will be the one that's embarrassed,
106
Not the one on the ground.
107
Keep in mind that you haven't been here in four.
108
No, how long has it been?
109
Yeah, four years.
110
I was recovering from the fall.
111
No, no, no. But look at all the content we had,
112
and you haven't been here in four years.
113
You'd think you'd want to come back because you had so much fun.
114
I know, and now I have.
115
OK, and now you've come back.
116
Yeah, I have come back.
117
I mean, I had an album out called Reputation.
118
I know.
119
And I really.
120
You guys are friendly.
121
Yeah, with the album, I just basically wanted to just make music and not explain it.
122
Yeah.
123
But I missed you so much.
124
It worked out.
125
It was really.
126
You still sold a bunch of albums without even talking.
127
I mean, usually people go to promote their music because it helps sell albums.
128
You don't have to do that.
129
Well, that's nice of you to say.
130
It's true.
131
I mean, I am having fun being back here.
132
It's been really great to be back here.
133
And I definitely do, I think as a songwriter,
134
I enjoy communicating about what I've made.
135
I really do like that part of the process.
136
But I also just feel like with my career,
137
I want to do what feels right at the time.
138
So at that time, I coined this phrase,
139
there will be no explanation.
140
There will just be reputation.
141
Because I am dramatic.
142
That's a very dramatic thing.
143
But it rhymed.
144
It was kind of catchy.
145
And so I stuck with it.
146
Right.
147
Is that in one of your songs?
148
Because if it isn't, it should be.
149
Thank you.
150
No. And I think it's a little late for that,
151
because now we're on to another different album.
152
I know.
153
But you still could have that.
154
For an album that's not Reputation?
155
Yeah.
156
It's a little off brand.
157
No. But I will think about it.
158
No. Just like clothing comes back in style,
159
you can come right back around to that topic again, if you'd like.
160
It could be like a vintage.
161
You can do anything you want, Taylor Swift.
162
Thank you for saying that.
163
Yeah.
164
You know, you, I mean,
165
really, people thought, oh, god,
166
she's been away for so long.
167
How is this album going to do?
168
And they put so much,
169
I don't think pressure on you,
170
because I don't think you felt.
171
Yeah, there's pressure.
172
Really?
173
Yeah, for sure.
174
Oh, OK.
175
Because it seemed like people were expecting this not to be as good,
176
or that album not to be as good,
177
and you just came back and proved them all wrong.
178
Aw.
179
You know, it's true.
180
Thanks.
181
Because you didn't worry about how certain people do things.
182
You do things your own way,
183
and it all works out for you.
184
Thank you so much.
185
Well, you're welcome.
186
Now, let's talk about me.
187
No, not talking about me.
188
But so these, here, let's talk about,
189
you're on the cover of Entertainment Weekly,
190
and you have all these Easter eggs on here, right?
191
Yeah, yeah.
192
And I feel like.
193
Explain what the eggs are to people who don't understand.
194
Yeah, because I think that is necessary.
195
So it's like when we say Easter eggs,
196
we're not only talking about Easter eggs that you would go on an Easter egg hunt for on Easter.
197
It's kind of like a clue,
198
like a foreshadowing kind of thing.
199
I like to plant Easter eggs in a video that will be like a lyric from unreleased music,
200
or like a little hint or a little wink to what's coming in the future.
201
Right.
202
So yeah, that was kind of the theme of what we did the Entertainment Weekly thing on.
203
And it's just been really fun to kind of expand the musical experience past just listening to a song.
204
I also want people to be watching the music video,
205
and what's that thing in the background,
206
and what's that song playing underneath there,
207
and is there a reason she said that in French?
208
Right.
209
Because people, and usually your fans are pretty good at figuring it out, right?
210
They're excellent at figuring it out.
211
What is the worst?
212
How far off have they been?
213
What's the worst they've been?
214
Oh, man.
215
Well, there were some fans that thought I had something to do with Avengers Endgame.
216
Oh, really?
217
Which I would have loved to have been asked, but I wasn't.
218
No, you weren't.
219
Asked to be in it at all.
220
Yeah.
221
Because we had the single coming out the same day,
222
and I have a song that was called Endgame.
223
And so they were like,
224
oh my god, she's going to defeat Thanos.
225
And I let everyone down again.
226
That's, well, that was confusing.
227
On your jacket, you have a lot of things on here,
228
but you don't have something that next time you wear a jacket, that's.
229
Thank you.
230
You're welcome.
231
It's you as a kitty cat.
232
And that's two things you love.
233
Those are the two things I love the most in the world.
234
Together, put together.
235
Yeah.
236
All right, we have to take a break.
237
I'll let you cry about that.
238
We'll be back.
239
We're back with Taylor Swift,
240
who was just telling me about washing her legs in the shower.
241
I couldn't hear you.
242
Did you say you do wash them or you don't?
243
I do, because when you shave your legs,
244
isn't the shaving cream is like soap, right?
245
Yeah, it is.
246
That is, I think that's a reason that most women wash their legs,
247
because we have to, because we shave our legs.
248
Yeah.
249
Yeah.
250
So that counts.
251
Oh, for sure.
252
It's a good.
253
I'm on the right side of history, though.
254
Unless you're not shaving, and then you're not washing.
255
So whenever you're not shaving,
256
you don't wash, you're saying?
257
No, I don't think I would say that.
258
Well, it seems like you did just say it.
259
I kind of always shave my legs.
260
Every day?
261
I mean, yeah.
262
Every day?
263
Yeah.
264
God, you must be hairy.
265
All right, so let's talk about.
266
So sweet.
267
I don't know why you don't come here more often.
268
Yeah.
269
All right, let's talk about me.
270
We were just playing it during the commercial break,
271
which I love that song.
272
I love that video so much.
273
Thank you.
274
That must have been so fun to shoot.
275
It was so fun.
276
That's actually.
277
Is that your new kitten?
278
That's my new kitten, Benjamin.
279
Wait.
280
First of all, let's finish talking about the video, because it's so good.
281
Brendan Urie, right?
282
Is that his last name?
283
Brendan Urie is one of the most incredible performers.
284
Yeah.
285
He is amazing.
286
I love that y'all were together in that.
287
Oh, yeah.
288
I mean, he does this little dance coming up.
289
He already did it.
290
But all his little dances are like that.
291
He's so good.
292
He's just like, he would raise the energy in any situation.
293
Yeah.
294
I love him.
295
He was just amazing.
296
All right.
297
We're going to get to the kitten in a minute.
298
But speaking French in the beginning of it, does that mean something?
299
Yeah, definitely.
300
OK.
301
Did you know French already,
302
or did you learn it for that?
303
I've tried to learn French several times in my life,
304
because I think it's a really beautiful language.
305
It is beautiful.
306
And I definitely made sure that I had native French speakers on set
307
because I didn't want to butcher the language of love.
308
Like, that's not what I came here to do.
309
Say something in French right now.
310
You're putting me on the spot.
311
But I mean, je suis calm.
312
Ah, thank you.
313
I don't know.
314
What does that mean?
315
It means I am calm.
316
Oh.
317
Je ne peux pas te parler quand c'est comme ça.
318
Oh, that's good.
319
That's a good one.
320
Thanks.
321
I don't know what that means,
322
but that sounded real French.
323
All right.
324
Because I love cats.
325
OK, let's talk about cats.
326
So was that kitten?
327
It doesn't.
328
No. So was that kitten just there to be in the video,
329
or did you and then you took it home,
330
or did you put it in the video and it was yours already?
331
He was a little cat actor.
332
He was there.
333
Apparently, there was, I didn't know this at the time.
334
All I know is we had to have a kitten in the scene,
335
because I wanted to have the scene where it's like,
336
you know, he gives me a ring.
337
I'm like, no. He gives me flowers.
338
I'm like, no. And then he gives me a kitten,
339
and I'm like, yes, absolutely.
340
You know me clearly.
341
And so they show up with this little kitten,
342
And his handler was like,
343
do you want to hold him first?
344
I was like, absolutely I do.
345
And so they hand me this tiny cat.
346
And I've never really experienced a cat that the second I held this little kitten,
347
he started purring like a motor.
348
And I was like, OK, whose cat is this?
349
You're really lucky whoever owns this cat.
350
And then the girl was like,
351
actually, he doesn't have a home.
352
And then my eyes turned into hearts.
353
Yes.
354
I just immediately was like,
355
I can't think about anything else.
356
And so how did the other two get along?
357
You can't just bring a cat home.
358
Cats don't, they're not like that.
359
They're like little puff balls getting in a fight.
360
It's like marshmallows throwing each other.
361
That's good then.
362
And his name is Benjamin?
363
Benjamin Button.
364
That's right.
365
Because it's an incredible movie.
366
Yes, it is.
367
It's an incredible film.
368
He ages backwards.
369
Yeah.
370
All right, so we're back with the only person who loves cats possibly as much as I do, or more.
371
But I think, no, we would.
372
I don't want to get in a fight about it.
373
No, but no, we both love cats.
374
Let's just leave it at that.
375
All right, Taylor Swift is who I was talking about.
376
OK, so there's video of your other two cats on the plane, I think.
377
Is that what we have?
378
I think it's just a picture,
379
but it's a good demonstration of just what my personal life looks like.
380
It's just, well, that's just Olivia stretching.
381
That's just?
382
That's my middle child.
383
Yeah, she's kind of like a seal.
384
And she just lays on her back.
385
Oh my god.
386
Isn't she amazing?
387
And her tail just never grew.
388
Oh my god.
389
And then she stands up.
390
Here's meerkat.
391
One.
392
Yeah.
393
Get it.
394
She's a really special animal.
395
And that was when she was a baby, meowing.
396
Oh my god.
397
They're just so cute.
398
And now, so you would be,
399
and you're doing the movie Cats.
400
Yeah.
401
So you probably have an advantage,
402
because you probably act more like.
403
I understand them.
404
Yes.
405
Yeah.
406
More study.
407
Because James Corden had to learn.
408
They went to cat school.
409
We all went to cat school.
410
You have no idea.
411
It was like all my dreams came true on the set of this film.
412
It was like they literally,
413
they're like, you can come to set as much as you want.
414
And I ended up being there like every day for four months.
415
Just like they're all like,
416
oh, Taylor's doing cat school again.
417
Again.
418
She's still here.
419
She's still doing cat school.
420
What did you learn?
421
Well, you crawl around on the floor and you pretend to be a cat.
422
Right.
423
I bet you're really a good cat.
424
I mean, we'll see.
425
I really don't know.
426
I had the most fun.
427
Yeah.
428
I had the best time.
429
All right, so wait, there's a new album coming out.
430
Are you finished with the album yet?
431
Yeah, unless I write something else.
432
OK.
433
Then I'll just probably put it on the album.
434
OK.
435
And then you have another video coming out soon.
436
Ish, yeah.
437
When is it coming out?
438
I don't know yet, because we have to finish it first.
439
OK.
440
Yeah.
441
And then I think you said you wanted me in it.
442
Yeah, I mean, that would be a dream.
443
Yeah.
444
Would you want to do that?
445
I don't know, but I'll think about it.
446
OK.
447
For sure.
448
Please do.
449
Yeah.
450
OK.
451
Great.
452
Yeah, I'll do it.
453
Cool.
454
OK.
455
That's great.
456
All right.
457
All right.
458
We have to take a break.
459
And then we're going to come back.
460
And she's going to talk all about her boyfriend.
461
We'll be back.
462
What I'll do is I'll read a question.
463
And then you will answer the question.
464
And then hit this for no apparent reason.
465
I love it.
466
It's fun, right?
467
Yeah.
468
Yeah.
469
It's like a game show,
470
but yet you win nothing.
471
What's the title of your next single?
472
Oh, I can't tell you that.
473
That's crazy.
474
I was going to try.
475
Can you sing some of it?
476
No. OK.
477
All right.
478
If you can't sleep in the middle of the night,
479
what do you do?
480
I go downstairs and rummage through the kitchen and eat whatever I can find.
481
And it's really less like a human being and more like a raccoon in a dumpster.
482
Like the next morning, we just walk downstairs and go, what happened here?
483
And I don't remember.
484
Does that help you sleep if you eat a whole lot And then?
485
It's not really voluntary.
486
Oh, do you sleep eat?
487
I think so.
488
I don't really remember it.
489
But I know it happens,
490
because it could have only been me or Katz.
491
Right.
492
Well, that wasn't the question.
493
We're learning something different.
494
I said, if you can't sleep at night, what do you do?
495
But it sounds like you.
496
I'm still sleeping and doing it?
497
Yes, it sounds like you've got an issue.
498
Yep.
499
OK.
500
Currently, what is your favorite TV show?
501
Oh, god.
502
OK, so Killing Eve, Game of Thrones, Downton Abbey, Queer Eye.
503
I'll just, I got to stop though.
504
I'm getting too excited.
505
Killing Eve is.
506
Yes.
507
What is the most rebellious thing you did as a teenager?
508
Probably when I put Joe Jonas on blast on your show.
509
That was too much.
510
Was it?
511
Yeah.
512
That was too much.
513
OK.
514
I was 18.
515
Yeah.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
