AceShowbiz - Sarah Paulson freaked out when she received a gift from Taylor Swift. The 48-year-old actress becomes a huge fan of the Grammy-winning pop star and although she didn't get the chance to meet Taylor in person at one of her shows, Sarah was overwhelmed by her generosity.
"Lupita [Nyong'o] and I went to see Taylor Swift. We didn't meet her, but someone from her team gave us merchandise. They said, 'This is from Taylor' and I thought I was going to faint," she told PEOPLE when asked to recall the last time she felt starstruck.
Like Taylor, Sarah is a self-confessed animal lover, and the actress has also been overwhelmed by various animal rescue stories. Asked to recall the last time she cried, Sarah replied, "I follow a lot of animal rescues on Instagram. I have sorrowful tears when I first see the animal, and hopefully by a few days later I get happy tears that they're rescued."
Meanwhile, Sarah previously claimed that working in the TV industry is currently more attractive than the movie business. The actress - who won an Emmy and a Golden Globe for her starring role in the TV series "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story" - claimed that the writing is actually stronger in the TV business.
Sarah told the BBC, "There was a time where nobody wanted to do television, it was just a bunch of dodos, and it was like, 'You can't get any film work, huh? Going over to TV? Aww, I'm sorry.' And now I feel like very accomplished people in the film world know that where the storytelling is, where the writing is, where the roles are, tend to be in television right now."
