Taylor Swift Inspires New Line of Toys
A line of dolls inspired by Taylor Swift will hit the
market this fall as part of a deal between JAKKS Pacific
Inc. (which designs and markets toys) and Creative Artists
Agency (the talent agency that represents Swift). Under
the agreement, the toy company plans to launch a line of
fashion dolls wearing Swift's fashions, role-play toys and
craft and activity sets. JAKKS spokesperson Jennifer
Richmond said, "Tweens have developed a great connection
with Taylor Swift, resulting in an aspirational following
that not only enables girls to emulate this beautiful
young country star, but encourages them to believe in
themselves."
