Taylor Swift covers the latest issue of Billboard.
In promotion of her new album – set to break every chart record out there on October 22 – the super, duper star talks to the magazine about a number of topics related to “Red.”
To wit:
Its theme: It’s all the different ways that you have to say goodbye to someone. When you’re experiencing the ups and downs of a relationship, especially when you’re 22 years old, they all strike you different ways. Every different kind of missing someone, every kind of loss – it all sounds different to me.

Lindsay Lohan: Off the Hook in Burglary Case as Witnesses Refuse to Come Forward!
9 months ago
Lindsay Lohan has escaped again. She will NOT be prosecuted for her alleged role in the theft of more than $100,000 in watches and sunglasses this month.
According to the D.A.’s office, there is insufficient evidence to bring a burglary charge against the star, despite Lohan being the prime suspect in the caper.
One key component: The D.A. feels Lindsay and Sam Magid, who owns the house that was allegedly burglarized, have had a “longstanding relationship.”
Sam also did not identify the actress as a suspect and other witnesses “have refused to become involved.” Also, no suspects were found

Lindsay Lohan claims she’s been framed (there’s a freaking surprise) in the recent burglary she’s suspected of, and points the finger at Andrew Knight.
Andrew is the son of Suge Knight, FYI. Tread carefully, LiLo.
Police say Lindsay Lohan is a suspect in the theft, which took place at the lavish estate of Sam Magid, a good friend of LiLo’s, a week ago Sunday.
See if you can keep up with this strange saga:
- Magid told cops Monday that two of LiLo’s friends, one of whom is Andrew Knight, said she handed them a bag with 2-3 stolen items wrapped in a shirt that night.

Mariah Carey Poses for First American Idol Promotional Photo
10 months ago
Mariah Carey is on board as one of the new American Idol judges. For a cool $18 million per year.
And just days after this announcement was made official, Fox came out with the first promotional picture of its new panelist. She doesn’t exactly look thrilled to have the gig, does she?
Still, no one can debate Carey’s credentials. She has sold over 200 million records worldwide and is responsible for more number-one singes than any solo artist in history.
The questions now surrounding Season 12, which executives hope will be a major bounce back from a grossly disappointing Season 11 in the

After nearly causing a riot in Norway, and then running into a glass wall during a Paris show, the teenage sensation calmed things down a bit during a concert in Milan. At one point he even broke out his guitar, sat on a stool and showed off his acoustic skills.

At this stage, it’s difficult to be shocked by any elimination on American Idol.
Only five contestants remained heading into tonight, and all are quite talented, and all enjoyed mostly strong performances on Wednesday. Still, we didn’t see this ousting coming, not once Phillip was deemed safe… and Joshua… and Jessica…
It had to be Hollie going home, right?
Nope. Over 60 million votes were cast and the finalist who America sent packing was… Skylar Laine!
Yes, she struggled with “Fortunate Son,” but enough to get the boot? You tell us: Did Skylar deserve to go home at this point?

Seal’s split from Heidi Klum was one of the most shocking celebrity divorces in recent memory, but the parting of ways appeared to have been scandal-free.
Or was it? A new tabloid report suggests that may not be the case.

With a new album on the way, Joe Jonas is about to embark on a solo career.
But an insider tells Us Weekly the singer wants to make sweet music again with another famous artist: ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift!

“He wants her back,” the tabloid claims. “He wants to show her he’s a changed man and would love to see what’s possible between them.”
