Taylor Swift gets embarrassed by her dad.

The 'Love Story' singer has taken her father on tour with her and says his cheeky sense of humour can sometimes leave her red-faced.

However, Taylor, 19, is pleased her dad is with her all the time because he keeps her grounded.

She said: "It's pretty priceless having my dad out here with me."

Taylor is glad her dad has joined her on tour as she recently revealed she is currently single but doesn't want to actively seek out a relationship.

Taylor - who previously dated Jonas Brothers star Joe Jonas - said: "I don't look for boyfriends. I don't really scour the awards shows for who I'm going to date, but I think love happens when you're not looking for it, and when it happens, I'm not going to be the one to over think it."
