Taylor Swift Performs ‘Hannah Montana’ Song ‘Crazier’ for 1st Time
Taylor Swift treated her audience in Edinburgh, Scotland to a treat when she chose to perform “Crazier” live for the first time ever. The song was released as part of the “Hannah Montana: The Movie” soundtrack 15 years ago.
In video shared on social media, Swift sang a mash-up of both “Crazier” and “All of the Girls.”
The then-teen country star Swift made a cameo in the 2009 film. “It’s so cool to become a part of the ‘Hannah Montana’ phenomenon,” she told reporters at the time. “It’s taking over the world right now. Honestly, it’s just so cool because ever since I figured out that I was going to be able to be in this movie, every time a little girl will come through one of my signing lines, or every single time I’ll see a little girl in one of my meet-and-greets and she’s got a ‘Hannah Montana’ shirt on, I want to be like, ‘Guess what — I get to be in that movie.”

The film’s production notes indicated that Swift became involved with the movie after she was approached by producers. The singer said she was asked to send in a song that “was perfect to fall in love to” and “Crazier” fit the bill.
Saturday’s show was Swift’s second of three concerts set for Edinburgh. She will round out her tour stops in the United Kingdom on June 30, then head to Amsterdam.
The first leg of Swift’s massive Eras Tour was the first set of concerts to gross over a billion dollars. Swift broke Elton John’s “Farewell Yellow Brick Road” gross record after 60 shows.

Governor Gianforte Announces Montana Ranks as Top 10 State for Job Growth
Governor’s Office
HELENA, Mont. – Governor Greg Gianforte today announced Montana ranks in the top ten states with the highest year-over-year job growth rates.
“Montana continues to rank as one of the best states to start or grow a business, earn a competitive wage, and secure a good-paying job,” Gov. Gianforte said. “As we continue to reform our regulatory environment to support job creators and cut taxes to give money back to the hardworking Montanans who earned it, we see the results of conservative policies at work as the Treasure State ranks in the top ten states with the strongest job growth.”
According to a report by Stat Ranker, which compared all 50 states based on year-over-year growth in total nonfarm payroll employment between February 2025 and February 2026, Montana ranked ninth in the nation for both jobs added and overall job growth adding more than 2,100 jobs over the year, representing a 0.4 percent job growth rate.
Last week, the governor attended the groundbreaking for Janicki Industries in Great Falls to celebrate the aerospace manufacturers’ investment expected to create more than 2,000 jobs over the next ten years and the ribbon cutting for Amazon’s sixth delivery station in Montana that brings the company’s total employment in the state to over 800.
Last month, the governor announced Montana was ranked in the top five states with the fastest-growing economies since 2021. The report from Visual Capitalist found that between 2021 and 2025, Montana’s GDP grew 16.1 percent while the national average in the same time period was 10.8 percent. When it comes to wage growth, Montana ranks third in the nation for fastest wage growth and is only one of two states in the nation where wage growth has outpaced inflation since 2020. The average wage earned by Montana workers reached $60,037 in 2024.
Earlier this year, Gov. Gianforte also announced Montana’s fiscal health surged into the top ten states nationally under his leadership, rising from 22nd in 2021 to 8th in 2025. Since taking office, the governor has paid off the state’s general obligation debt, making Montana debt-free in 2023 and saving Montanans $40 million over a period of two years.
Montana also consistently ranks in the top fifteen states with the lowest unemployment rates. Last month, the governor announced Montana’s unemployment rate ticked down to 3.4 percent in May, lower than the national unemployment rate which remained at 4.3 percent.
