Taylor Swift releases live acoustic version of her latest single The Man… after reports surface that her father fought off burglar in Florida penthouse
Taylor Swift is doing things a bit differently with this single.
On Monday evening, the 30-year-old Lover singer released her latest single The Man but with an added twist.
The new song from her current album was from her recent performance in Paris which featured an acoustic version of the up-beat pop anthem while performing in front of a few hundred lucky fans.

During the stripped down performance during the City of Lover concert, Swift rocked a satin blazer and sequin skirt while performing hits off of the latest album.
She then went ahead and used her performance at that show for the accompanying music video for the song.
‘It was a song that I wrote from my personal experience, but also from a general experience that I’ve heard from women in all parts of our industry,’ she said while speaking with Billboard.

‘I think that, the more we can talk about it in a song like that, the better off we’ll be in a place to call it out when it’s happening.’
She added: ‘So many of these things are ingrained in even women, these perceptions, and it’s really about re-training your own brain to be less critical of women when we are not criticizing men for the same things.’
This release comes after news broke via Tampa Bay Times that Swift’s father Scott had a close call with a burglar.

According to the article, the star’s dad had just returned home to his $4 million dollar penthouse in Florida just after Terrence Hoover, 30, had broken in.
When he arrived home at about 10 p.m., he found the suspect in his home after authorities believe he either accessed it through the stairwell or an elevator that requires a key card.
After a brief struggle, Hoover ran away before he called the police on himself.
Hoover’s mother believes he was looking for his estranged wife at a church nearby and had simply gotten lost.
‘He was lost and should be charged with only trespassing,’ she said.
