Jeff Jarrett has starred in his own music video for "With My Baby Tonight" but he's not the biggest music video star in his own family.
His daughter Jaclyn starred in the 2010 Taylor Swift video for "Mine," which has over 300 million views on YouTube.
Speaking to Denise Salcedo of Instinct Culture, Jarrett explained how his daughter landed a role in the video.
"She had a friend in the family and we became family friends. She's in the community. When 'Mine' came out, she came over to the house and Jeremy Borash, we were having a creative meeting downstairs. Taylor would come over and get the girls and take them back to her house and they'd bake cookies and all kind of stuff. One day, Taylor brought over Joe Jonas. The 'Mine' video is so creative and my daughter Jaclyn looked like a little Taylor. We were out on the lake, Taylor pulled up and, as bold as she always is, was just like, 'I want Jaclyn in the video.' 'Okay.' We flew up to Maine where they shot the video, had to turn over your cell phone on set and all that stuff. It was a good experience for the kids," he recalled.
Jarrett went on to praise Swift for all her success and how she commands a room saying, "Not only is she uber-creative as an artist, she thinks like a businesswoman. Those two skillsets combined, you rarely see. She deserves all the success she has."
As Taylor Swift herself once said, if she were a man, she'd be The Man.
