I see her as sort of my musical and songwriting granddaughter.
Carole King is not just a Taylor Swift fan shes a Swiftie who endorses Kamala Harris.

I am a Swiftie, and Taylor and I are actually friends, she said.
We have had conversations backstage, and I see her as sort of my musical and songwriting granddaughter.
We have a lovely relationship, and Im so proud of her.
Ive been a caller, Ive been a door knocker, even as a famous person, she said.
Dont be afraid because there is nothing to lose and everything to gain.
She ended her speech by performing the chorus of Shake It Off, declaring it her favorite Swift song.
Swift frequently cited King as one of her biggest songwriting inspirations and spoke about her influence during herinduction speech.
I cannot remember a time when I didnt know Carole Kings music, she said.
