Celebrities have major influential power on social media. Surprisingly enough, Taylor Swift engaged in social monitoring of her own when she decided she would host 1989 Secret Sessions.

Taylor Swift hosted these 1989 Secret Sessions for her fans on three separate occasions. In these sessions Taylor played her full album 1989 a month ahead of the release date.

Taylor Swift went above and beyond most celebrities to connect with her fans. She scoured Instagram, the Internet, Twitter and Taylor Swift fan sites to hand pick the most well deserved fans. She listened in on conversations about her, monitored the comments on her Instagram account and Twitter.

It is a big deal to have a celebrity hand pick 267 lucky fans to attend her secret sessions. I give kudos to Taylor Swift for her dedication to monitor her fans for months to make sure she selected the true fans to come listen to her album.
