Taylor Swift will be featured on tomorrow night's installment of 60 Minutes and, in a few excerpts released from the upcoming interview, the star makes it clear that she's open to her status as a role model.

"I definitely think about a million people when I'm getting dressed in the morning, and that's just part of my life now," Swift tells the news magazine. "I think it's my responsibility to know it and to be conscious of it."

While other artists may have gotten into trouble over the years for drunk driving or the smoking of substances, Swift won't ever use her age as an excuse for any behavior of this type.

"It would be really easy to say 'I'm 21 now, I do what I want. You raise yo ... Read more »

Taylor Swift was well-accessorized for her shopping trip at the Melrose Trading Post, a flea market in West Hollywood. The country singer, in a Deepa Gurnani headband, was in good spirits as she braved the heat and browsed hours before her concert. Swift was recognized by several fellow shoppers, but was ultimately left alone to shop without being hassled.

"My day-off shirt," she wrote on Twitter. "A gift from a super cool fan who knows that, to me, relaxation equals a shirt with a bunch of cats."

The singer has been going nonstop on her Speak Now tour, but all it took was a silly cat tee to bring on the rest-and-relaxation.



In addition to donning the cats-ual shirt, Swift has demonstrated her affinity for felines on her phone, ... Read more »

The cat-loving singer introduced her new feline friend on Twitter on Thursday, posting a photo of the wide-eyed kitty curled up on a blanket.

"Hanging out with my new roommate, Meredith," Swift wrote, prompting a famous (and equally cat-obsessed) pal, Katy Perry, to ask, "OH MY GOSH. Is this kitty for real?!?!" Swift has spent the past few days posting photos of adorable Me ... Read more »

We gawked at these pictures of Taylor Swift and Reese Witherspoon driving around Los Angeles together for about thirty seconds before we registered exactly what it was that was so weird about the two of them hanging out: they both dated Jake Gyllenhaal!

Something about knowing that these two women -- who look like they could be aunt and niece here -- dated the same guy is kind of amusing/disconcerting, no?

Anyway, despite their overlapping dating history and age difference (Witherspoon is 14 years older than Swift), we're kind of into their friendship. (Witherspoon was also spotted at Swift's Los Angeles concert Sunday nigh ... Read more »
