Hair raising: Taylor Swift whips her hair during a concert in Hong Kong last night


With a successful Asian leg of her world tour coming to a close, Taylor Swift was clearly in the mood for some energetic celebration.

And during her last performance yesterday evening, she took the opportunity to let her hair down - energetically whipping her long blonde locks around on the Hong Kong stage.

Looking striking in a gold fringed dress and black boots, the 21-year-old country star looked like she was having a great time as she performed songs from her latest album Speak Now.

Hong Kong is the last stop in Asia for Swift, who has also performed in Taiwan, South Korea, Indonesia and the Philippines.

She has revealed vis her Twitter account that she has been filming the tour as part of her video blog.

The singer even posted a picture of she and her band mates dressed up as traditional Japanese Geisha Girls on Twitter during the Japan leg of the tour last week.

Before going on stage, Swift last night described her success in Asia as 'the most beautiful and pleasant surprise.'

'Being welcomed by countries that speak a different language from the language I speak is an honour,' she said.

'It really touches me every time I look down and I see all the fans singing the words to my songs, having written the lyrics, knowing that they connect in countries where English really isn't spoken by everyone. It means the world to me.'

The star will take her tour to Europe in March before hitting the U.S. in May and then Australia and New Zealand later in the year.
