Taylor Swift still hangs out with friends


Young songstress Taylor Swift has revealed she still likes to go out with her friends despite achieving a global level of fame in recent months.
The 21-year-old, whose latest album is called ‘Speak Now’, says while she is recognised when out in public, she doesn’t let that stop her social life. “I still hang out with my friends," she says. "I still walk into a nearby grocery store and I still do all those things that anyone at this age would."
Taylor, who is currently dating actor Jake Gyllenhaal, also confesses that while she may not speak her mind all the time, her music gives her a chance to do just that. “I know I don't always say the right thing at the right time or speak up when I should, but I write it all down," she explains. "I get my guitar and a pen and all of a sudden, I have a chance to say exactly what I meant to say in real life."

Taylor Swift's Hot Hairstyle Makeover


While there were plenty of surprising moments last night at the American Music Awards (NKOTB reunion! Ke$ha's gravity-defying 'do! Justin Bieber's trophy domination!), there was one that really had us shocked: Taylor Swift got bangs y'all!
Instead of the sideswept, romantic waves we've come to expect from the singer at awards shows, Swifty surprised everyone by wearing her hair not only sleek and loose, but accompanied with a blunt, edgy fringe.
We've said before how much we love it when Taylor Swift wears her hair straight and we think the addition of bangs only enhances the look. We really wish she'd wear her hair like this more often--it's super-flattering to her face shape and gives her a sexy, look that's miles away from her typical fairy tale updo.
What do you think of Taylor Swift's new hairstyle?

"I didn't want it to be a crazy club thing, I just want it to be very me, and the me thing to do would be to have a Christmas birthday party."
          Taylor Swift has already had an early present with the news her album ‘Speak Now’ has broken sales records in its first week of release.

Taylor Swift to Launch Fragrance

           Taylor Swift says she's inspired to write songs based on her dating experiences.
          Therefore, we can't help but wonder: what will her upcoming fragrance line smell like? Some kind of Joe Jonas/John Mayer mash-up?
             The talented singer announced plans this week for her own perfume, saying in a statement: [Taylor Swift]
          “I have always loved how fragrance can shape a memory... the way certain scents remind you of events and people that are imprinted in your thoughts. Lately, I’ve been having fun experimenting with combining some of my favorite scents, so I’m really excited about working with Elizabeth Arden to develop my own unique fragrance.”
          Consumers will have plenty of time to contemplate the perfume. It won't hit stores until the fall of 2011. [Taylor Swift]

Taylor Swift: I Adore Justin Bieber!

         Justin Bieber might be dating Selena Gomez.
But if things don't work out between those two, an even more successful artist has made it clear: she has Bieber Fever.
“I adore [Justin Bieber]," Taylor Swift says in the latest issue of Allure. He’s sweet and awesome... I’ll join his fan club.” [Taylor Swift]
            Of course, Bieber might wanna be careful because Taylor admits in the same interview that she often puts a quick end to dating arrangements:
“I have a phobia about being in the wrong relationship, so as soon as I establish it’s not the right one, I don’t want to waste their time.” [Taylor Swift]

Taylor Swift: ‘I Contradict Myself

          Taylor Swift admits she often contradicts herself — because she happily writes songs about her relationships, but refuses to talk about them!
          The 20-year-old superstar — who has previously been linked to Joe Jonas, Taylor Lautner and John Mayer — has vowed to keep on singing about her highs and lows with men, but insists she will never kiss and tell about any of her lovers.
           “I have this interesting contradiction in my personality in that I write songs about my personal life but I don’t talk about them,” she said. [Taylor Swift]

Taylor Swift: ‘Bullies Inspired me to Become a Musician

         Taylor Swift says her school bullies inspired her to become a musician.
          The 20-year-old singer was tormented by several classmates when her family moved from their farmhouse in Pennsylvania to a new house in the city.
           The pupils would tease her and shun her offers of friendship, but ultimately Taylor believes those adolescent experiences made her more determined to pursue her music dream.

Taylor Swift: The Bullies Helped Me Succeed

          Taylor Swift has revealed that being bullied actually helped her to become as successful as she is today. The 20-year-old, who wrote her first song aged 12, said that being rejected by her classmates after singing the national anthem at a professional basketball game was one of the most painful things she can remember.

           "That memory is one of those painful ones you'll never fully get over," she told the Daily Mail. "At that point I'd been shunned from the group for whatever reason and I was still trying desperately to be included. [Taylor Swift]
          That evening, I called them up and they each said no and mum said, "You know what? You want to go to the mall, let's go together'. "And we ran into this entire group of girls who had told me they were busy that night. So we got in the car and we drove to the mall that's an hour-and-a-half away but is a better mall.' She added, "And we showed them in our own tiny way. We had a great time."... [Taylor Swift]

According to Us Weekly, the singer, who just released her new album "Speak Now" in late October, was spotted spending a Halloween weekend together with the "Prince of Persin: Sands of Time" star. 
           Taylor and Jake reportedly enjoyed the Halloween weekend in California, hitting the pool at the Post Ranch in Big Sur. An eyewitness said, "Taylor laughed at everything Jake said. At one point, she measured herself against Jake on her tiptoes," with another observer adding that Jake "held her hand." [Taylor Swift]
where they stopped for an ice cream break at McConnell's. One staff at the McConnell's snitched, "They looked at all the flavors and couldn't decide, so they asked the counter girls for help."
          The pair, who was said looking "happy" and friendly", finally decided their orders - Swiss chocolate chip for Jake and yogurt with rainbow sprinkles for Taylor. The staff further mentioned that the "Mine" singer "was very interested in" what the staff "was doing in the back making ice cream and said, 'Wow, you guys are legit'." [Taylor Swift]

After reportedly spending for about 20 minutes at McConnell's, Taylor and Jake split with the "Brokeback Mountain"
star paying the bill. According to the staff, once the two separated, college-age fans approached them in the parking lot for photos. [Taylor Swift]
