Taylor Swift To Headline Ryan Seacrest's 2015 New Year's Rockin' Eve

Taylor Swift will ring in 2015 in Times Square as the headliner of "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve With Ryan Seacrest," where the pop star will sing her newest hits.


Seacrest, 39, took to twitter on Monday to announce the great news, writing: "This new year's we're partying like it's 1989…my friend @TaylorSwift13 is coming to Times Square for @OfficialNYRE!"

Swift, 24, is in the midst of a extensive media tour to promote her brand new album "1989", which made its debut on Monday. The singer previously appeared on "Good Morning America" to announce the winner of the show's "Ultimate "Shake It Off" With Taylor Swift Contest," in which fans posted their best video performances of her single.

Five girls from Winter Garden, Florida joined Taylor and host Robin Roberts via video chat to learn that they won the contest and will be headed to New York, where they will be VIP guests at her Epic Taylor Swift 1989 Concert on October 30 in Times Square. "I love you so much," Swift told the group, noting: "I am so emotional watching your video. You put so much thought into it. And you put so much spirit into it. I can not wait to meet you guys. You have no idea how excited I am."

It was also revealed on "GMA" that Swift has teamed up with NYC & Company to become the city's global welcome ambassador for tourism. In the promotional clip appearing on nycgo.com, Swift honored the city she currently calls home. 

"What makes New York City, New York City is that it is unlike anywhere else in the world," Taylor was quoted as saying, adding: "It's almost like the city has its own heartbeat. You can find fashion that inspires you, art that inspires you, humanity that inspires you. Everywhere you look, it's impossible not to fall in love or be affected by something in New York City."
