Long before Taylor Swift was a celebrity herself, she — like many young girls — developed a bit of a crush on a musical act. Unlike most other girls, she’s actually had the chance to meet the object of her affections and talk with him as a musical peer.
"I was in love with all of the members of Hanson," she told Lorianne Crook during a CMA Celebrity Close Up session at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. "I thought I was going to marry the middle one because his name was Taylor, too."
That, of course, was not to be. He got married in 2002 and now has three children.
"I recently met him and his wife a few weeks ago, and they're lovely people," Taylor said. "I was kinda like telling him that [crush] story but trying not to creep him out. It's a fine line."
