Taylor Swift Is a Quick Sell-Out

Taylor Swift was the best-selling artist of 2008 and 2009 is already shaping up to be another record-breaking year for the 19-year-old.

Tickets for Swift's upcoming Fearless tour are selling, well, swiftly. The singer, who recently visited the U.K. and is currently continuing her quest for world domination with an Australian tour, has already sold out upcoming shows on her home turf, with tickets for dates in Portland, OR, Spokane, WA, Charleston, WV and Rapid City, SD, snapped up by eager fans almost instantly.

Swift also helped a struggling little TV show called 'CSI: Crime Scene Investigation' increase its ratings from the previous week by a whopping 15 percent, with her memorable appearance on the March 5 episode. OK, in the end her character "Haley" didn't fare too well - thanks to the lethal combination of a heated argument with mom and a pair of scissors - but Swift, who's already been responsible for six million digital downloads, now has a "CSI Mix" of 'You're Not Sorry' available at iTunes.

Taylor's concert, in WV, was sold out the day before they went on sale to the public...wonder how that happened?? I was bummed. Taylor is awesome..she is amazing with words and melodies. Myself and quite a few people were really disappointed. We had to wait for them to go on sale and then they were already sold out!!?? Guess I will have to win one from the radio stations.
