MUMBAI: Singer Taylor Swift loves sticking close to her pop star friends at award ceremonies as they can be competitive and awkward in the music industry.

The 25-year-old, whose relationship with DJ Calvin Harris became public at the 2015 Billboard Music Awards, says being friends with other musicians at the ceremonies has helped her to enjoy the events which can feel "competitive" and "strange", reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Speaking on Britain TV show 'Lorraine', Swift said, “That is the cool part about the musical climate right now, is that I go to these award shows and I really do feel like I am seeing a lot of my friends and the more friends that I make that are awesome and cool and are at these events, the less it feels like some strange competitive atmosphere.”

She further said, “That does not feel as nice as going to an award show and feeling like, 'Hey! It is everyone that I really loved.'"

Swift is close friends with British singers Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith, and she is happy with their success.

During one of her other interviews, 'Bad Blood' singer Taylor Swift also said that she admires the way actress Angelina Jolie manages her family with stardom. She also stated that she wants to have her own family soon. She shared her views about family while talking to ITV News.
