ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Bowling fans have picked country star Taylor Swift as their 2010 choice for celebrity induction into the International Bowling Museum and Hall of Fame.
Swift barely beat pop star Justin Bieber to secure her lane in bowling history. They were among nine celebrities the Bowling Proprietors’ Association of America nominated for their public support of the sport.
Swift has been spotted and photographed bowling with friends.
The association, in making the announcement Wednesday, says this is the first year that the celebrity induction process has been opened to fans. Nearly 1.3 million votes were cast online.
The museum is based in the Dallas-Fort Worth suburb of Arlington. Swift’s photo and plaque will be displayed at the site later this summer.
