- Agencies

Taylor Swift fans sang and danced Sunday to her new hit The Fate of Ophelia at a German museum exhibiting a painting thought to have inspired the video for the chart-topper.

Some came as Ophelia, in white dresses with flowers in their hair, while others donned sparkly outfits like those often worn by Swift, as they descended on the western town of Wiesbaden.

They were attending a special event to see the painting by artist Friedrich Heyser, which shows Ophelia, a character in Shakespeare's Hamlet, in a white dress floating in a river among flowers before her death.

WHY NITISH KUMAR STILL RULES BIHAR’S CHESSBOARD

It was a bright morning towards the end of 2009. Vapours were visible from our cups filled with hot tea at our hotel. We were sitting with a close confidant of Nitish Kumar. I asked him what was the secret of his leader's success? He replied, “on the chessboard of politics Nitish babu, like a knight, can move two and half paces forward and backward simultaneously.
