As comfortably the biggest country music-turned mainstream megastar in music history, Jeff Jarrett knows a thing or two about making niche concerns huge.

Taylor Swift - to a lesser extent - probably understands this, and it explains why the two interacted on a close personal level earlier in Swift's career. As Jarrett explained in an interview with Denise Salcedo;

"She had a friend in the family and we became family friends. She’s in the community. When ‘Mine’ came out, she came over to the house and Jeremy Borash, we were having a creative meeting downstairs. Taylor would come over and get the girls and take them back to her house and they’d bake cookies and all kind of stuff. One day, Taylor brought over Joe Jonas. The ‘Mine’ video is so creative and my daughter Jaclyn looked like a little Taylor. We were out on the lake, Taylor pulled up and, as bold as she always is, was just like, ‘I want Jaclyn in the video.’ ‘Okay.’ We flew up to Maine where they shot the video, had to turn over your cell phone on set and all that stuff. It was a good experience for the kids."

Ain't she great?
