It's hard to imagine a time when we didn't know about Taylor Swift. Not only has she been around the music scene for well over a decade, she's just Taylor Swift, man. A pop-culture icon. A fashion muse. A country pop queen.

Taylor Swift's Landlord Admits He Had No Idea Who She Was
Well, in some shocking news of the day, apparently there are some people out there who DON'T know who T-Swift is.
I know, right? Hold on to your wigs, bbys, it gets worse.
Apparently, one of these people was actually Taylor's LANDLORD for quite some time.

Yep, that's right. In an interview with Vulure the owner of the apartment on "Cornelia Street" (the name of a song off T-Swift's new album and a real-life place she lived in) David Aldea said he had no clue who the INTERNATIONAL SUPERSTAR was.
“I’m afraid to tell you this, but I will tell you this: I really didn’t know her,” he said.

“I’m just not a pop-culture guy, and I even said to someone, ‘I’m meeting a person named Taylor Swift who wants to rent my home.’ Now, mind you, I knew her songs because I had them on my running playlist. I just didn’t match the name to the song. I know, it’s silly.”
Apparently, Taylor fell in love with the townhouse instantly, “She walked in, and I’ll never forget this — she said, ‘Oooh, it’s so crafty,’” Aldea recalled.

“And in Taylor-speak, that means ‘I like everything.’ She asked if she could rent not just the house but my style as well. So towels and dishes and glassware and furniture and just kind of ‘Take your clothes and go.’ So I did."
"She was an absolute delight to deal with," he concluded.
Oh, T-Swift, a delight? Find me one person who is surprised by this!
Queen of Cornelia Street!
