NARM is a not-for-profit trade association that serves music retailing businesses in lobbying and trade promotion. According to its Mission Statement, NARM “serves the music and other prerecorded entertainment software industry as the pre-eminent forum for insight and dialog in an increasingly diverse and rapidly evolving industry”.

In addition, ‘Valentine’s Day‘ director Garry Marshall complimented the singer during and interview with MTV.

“Taylor [Swift] was quite good in the movie and Taylor Lautner too. Taylor Swift is quite competitive. I said, ‘You know there’s a prize for best kiss? … So we might as well try for it.’ And Taylor Lautner kind of hid at the craft-service place. He didn’t want to get involved. Anyway, he went along with it. We did one in the movie, which was pretty good, but then we did a whole shot of a best kiss that was pretty good,” said Marshall.
