"I think it's just obnoxious if I complain about anything…I hear people talk about like, oh, the intrusions on my privacy. It's like there are a million other jobs you could have had. And for me, I've just come to an acceptance of the fact, this is my life. If somebody wants to hide a relationship or has privacy issues then we don't have the same viewpoint. For me, it's just like live your life. If people happen to take picture then you know, you laugh about it in the car afterwards."
Country sweetheart Taylor Swift has been named the newest face of CoverGirl cosmetics.
Joining the ranks of Rihanna, Drew Barrymore and Ellen Degeneres, the 20-year-old will front the line's still-untitled luxury collection.
“I am so excited to become the next CoverGirl,” Swift said in a statement. “I have admired many of the CoverGirls since I was a little girl… great artists and actresses who are confident and still themselves. It’s like a dream come true to be a part of the future of CoverGirl.”
Here is the trailer for Valentine's Day, the film where Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner make out...and which also features several big-named stars including Julia Roberts, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Biel, Ashton Kutcher and Patrick Dempsy.
Country cutie Taylor Swift hosted last week's Saturday Night Live.
During the show, she performed numerous skits, including a Twilight spoof, and one where she emulated Kate Gosselin. Swift also performed a musical monologue where she took a jab at Kanye West and ex-boyfriend, Joe Jonas.
Last night's MTV VMAs did not fail to shock, surprise and impress.
Highlights from the night included Madonna's speech in memory of the late Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson's tribute performance, Lady Gaga's outrageous "Paparazzi" number, Pink's circus acts, Beyonce's "Single Ladies" anthem, and Lil' Mama jumping onstage during Jay-Z and Alicia Keys' closing number.
But the most memorable moment of the night was when Taylor Swift won the award for "Best Female Video." As the 19-year-old was making her acceptance speech, Kanye West ran up on stage, grabbed the microphone from her, and said, "Now Taylor, I'm really happy for you, Ima let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time."
Later in the evening, Beyonce was awarded "Video of the Year," and called Swift up to the stage to "have her moment."
"I remember being 17 years old up for my first MTV award with Destiny's Child, and it was one of the most exciting moments in my life. So I'd like for Taylor to come out and have her moment," said the "Single Ladies" singer.
Swift came out from backstage and said, "Maybe we can try this again. I would really like to thank Roman White, who directed the video, and Lucas Till for being in it," Swift said. "I would like to thank all the fans on Twitter and MySpace and everyone that came out to my shows this summer. And I would like to thank my little brother's high school for letting us shoot there."
Since then, Kanye has spoken out about the incident on his official blog:
"I'M SOOOOO SORRY TO TAYLOR SWIFT AND HER FANS AND HER MOM. I SPOKE TO HER MOTHER RIGHT AFTER AND SHE SAID THE SAME THING MY MOTHER WOULD'VE SAID. SHE IS VERY TALENTED! I LIKE THE LYRICS ABOUT BEING A CHEERLEADER AND SHE'S IN THE BLEACHERS! …………………… I'M IN THE WRONG FOR GOING ON STAGE AND TAKING AWAY FROM HER MOMENT!…………….. BEYONCE'S VIDEO WAS THE BEST OF THIS DECADE!!!! I'M SORRY TO MY FANS IF I LET YOU GUYS DOWN!!!! I'M SORRY TO MY FRIENDS AT MTV. I WILL APOLOGIZE TO TAYLOR 2MRW. WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD!!!!

"Well, I was standing on stage because I was really excited because I had just won the award. And then I was really excited because Kanye West was on stage. And then I wasn't so excited anymore after that.
"I've been getting so many text messages and everybody's been really nice. So I've had a really, really fun night. It's been interesting definitely. It's definitely been an interesting night.
"I don't know him, and I've never met him, so… I don't want to start anything because I had a great night tonight."
Many other artists have sided with Swift including Kelly Clarkson, Pink, Donald Trump, Spencer Pratt and Heid Montag.
Taylor Swift showed off her best musical theatre skills when she sang "Tonight" for the 2009 MTV VMAs West Side Story-inspired promo.
“My version of ‘Tonight’ was pretty theatrical, because I listened to the song and I heard the song and I’m just like, ‘There’s no way to do this and not play it up,’ ” the 19-year-old singer said. “When we were in the studio recording, it I just kind of went all out — all show tunes. I am obsessed with Broadway, so I was pretty excited about getting to sing this song.”
Not too sure if this style suits her, but still a valiant effort!
Taylor Swift and rapper T-Pain teamed up for a rap collaboration called “Thug Story” (poking fun at Swift's hit single “Love Story”), which premiered at the Country Music Television Awards last night.
She actually makes a pretty good thug!
Swift also won the award for Best Female Video and Best Video of the Year, both for "Love Story."
The line, which is aimed towards younger teens, is called Miley Cyrus and Max Azria, and will include tops, pants, graphic tees and shoes, all for under $20.
This isn't Wal-Mart's first celebrity collaboration, with Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen's tween fashion line, Hilary Duff's Stuff by Hilary Duff, and most recently, a line of cami dresses by Taylor Swift called L.E.I. by Taylor Swift.
Taylor Swift looked stunning at the 2009 American Music Awards in an Angel Sanchez gown. The 19-year-old country star won album of the year for her latest album, Fearless.
Dancing with the Stars' Julianne Hough ripped her Zuhair Murad dress on the way the podium to accept her award for Top New Artist, but took it gracefully telling the audience, "It's a good thing I ripped my dress because now I have something else to think about!" The 20-year-old also won the award for Top Female Vocalist.
But American Idol season four winner Carrie Underwood stole the spotlight in her extravagant crimson gown as she took the stage to perform her hit single, "I Told You So."
On the worst dressed list was American Idol season five contestant, Kellie Pickler, also in a Zuhair Murad gown, but not as flattering as Julianne's. Miley Cyrus also topped the list in a bland Monique Lhullie gown and open toed heels. You're only 16 Miley, there's no need to dress like you're 25!
Nick Jonas is finally publicly talking about his love life, and revealed that he is no longer with Selena Gomez!
Recently on The Insider, a Jonas Brothers fan asked the three heartthrobs if they were dating anyone.
Both Joe and Kevin replied with "no comment," but Nick admitted that he is single.
The brothers also made an appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman, and Letterman was able to get them to open up about their past relationships.
On his ex-girlfriend, Miley Cyrus, Nick said, "We went on tour with Miley. Again, going back to the ups and downs, I think that I was 14, so it's, you know, I was pretty young, so I think you can just consider it a young little relationship."
Poor Selena, I guess she'll be hanging out with Miley and Taylor Swift, two other ex-Jonas love interests, very soon!
Katy Perry looked stunning in her old-Hollywood pink dress by Lebanese designer Basil Soda.
Honourable mention goes to Taylor Swift who looked chic and sophisticated in an Ultra Fine Italian Tissue Weight Jersey Dress by Kaufman Franco with wrap around patent leather strapping. She topped it off with Rene Caovilla shoes and Lorraine Schwartz jewels.
Amidst all the Chris Brown and Rihanna drama, there were some great performances at last night's 51st Annual Grammy Awards. There were plenty of collaborations between artists, including Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus, the Jonas Brothers and Stevie Wonder, and Coldplay and Jay-Z. Jennifer Hudson made her comeback after the tragif death of her mother and nephew, and a very pregnant M.I.A. performed with some of the top rappers, on her due date!
