Taylor Swift: Coming to Zooey Deschanel’s “New Girl”

She’s always had a flair for the dramatic, and Taylor Swift will show off her acting chops on the May 14th episode of “New Girl.”
The “Should’ve Said No” songstress will play Elaine, who becomes friends with Zooey Deschanel's character Jess, and it sounds like it’s going to be quite the cute cameo.

Creator Liz Meriwether told press that T.Swizzle ‘nailed’ the gig and even “did a little bit of a riff on one of her songs.”
She added, "I'm a huge fan of hers. I was fully geeking out about meeting [Taylor]. I didn't go to meet her right away because I kind of had to compose myself — there's a 14-year-old girl inside of me. She was quoting lines to us from the show. It was a really exciting night.”

Taylor Swift’s Ex Conor Kennedy: Arrested at White House Protest

Well it looks like she dumped him just in time- Taylor Swift's ex-boyfriend Conor Kennedy found himself in police custody yesterday (February 13).
The 18-year-old hunk joined his father Robert F Kennedy Jr at a Keystone XL Oil Pipeline protest at the White House, and the cops had to be brought in to calm things down.

All of the demonstrators, including actress Daryl Hannah, tied themselves to the gate outside 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue to insist that President Barack Obama say no to the controversial project.
When everything was said and done, a total of 40 protesters were handcuffed for failure to obey lawful orders and disperse, though they were each released after paying a $100 bond.

Carrie Underwood Denies Taylor Swift Feud Rumors

They’re both massive country music superstars in their own right, so it only makes sense that the media would pit Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift against each other in a falsified rivalry.
But the “Blown Away” babe says she has no hard feelings against T. Swizzle, so if there’s drama it must be coming from somewhere else.

Speaking to Gayle King on “CBS This Morning,” Carrie declared, “No [there’s no feud]. Not that I know of, at least.”
Blaming the tabloids for stirring up trouble, Underwood added “I’ve read the most ridiculous things about myself when people do that."
As for her favorite Swifty song, Carrie confessed, "I really like ‘I Knew You Were Trouble,' which is one of her newer ones. It sounded a lot different for her. I liked the branching out, kind of trying some different sounds.”
