All Rights Reserved Taylor Swift Drops F-Bomb In 'Miss Americana' Trailer Taylor Swift has dropped a brand-new trailer for her Netflix documentary, Miss Americana . Directed by Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Lana Wilson , the documentary tells the story of Swift's 14-year-old career, as she has torn through the industry's perception of a "nice girl" to fiercely own herself and unapologetically express her opinions on various matters, including politics. "Throughout my whole career, label executives would just say, 'A nice girl doesn't force their opinions on people, a nice girl smiles and waves and says thank you,'" Swift says at the beginning of the 2-minute-long clip. "I became the person everyone wanted me to be." "I wanna do this. I wanna be on the right side of history," she adds, possibly referring to her decision to openly vouch for a Democratic candidate in the 2018 midterm elections in her home state of Tennessee. The title of the documentary is taken from a song of the same name that is featured on the 30-year-old's most recent album, Lover . "It woke me up from constantly feeling like I was fighting for people's respect...it was happiness without anyone else's input," she said of the roller-coaster-journey that she has gone on after she was placed under a microscope for "going through guys," being "too skinny" and even "annoying," according to one clip of a reporter shown in the trailer. "It feels f-ing awesome," Swift added. Produced by Morgan Neville, Caitrin Rogers, and Christine O'Malley, the film will be released in select theatres on Friday, January 31, and will also be available for streaming on Netflix .
