| {{br|left}} | | Taylor likes to have her hair down when's she's out and not recording. When Taylor is recording voices for characters, she likes to have her hair in a ponytail. That's because she doesn't like to have it go into her mouth. Taylor's favorite color is pink, mainly because of Princess Peach; her favorite video game character is also Princess Peach.{{fact}} |
