Country teen sensation Taylor Swift is the new cover girl for the latest issue of Teen Vogue Magazine. Again what came out of this interview was a really down to earth girl, who loves her work and secretly wants to start an acting career too. Here are some highlights:

On thinking things happen for a reason: “I’m the kind of person, who needs to feel like everything happens for a reason. When you date a guy and it goes badly, that’s horrible. But if you can write a song about it, then it was worth it.”

On being popular being easier to meet people: “It’s weird—I thought I’d have so many more friends, but I feel like I’m less popular than I’ve ever been. It makes me value the people I can trust even more; I still have the same best friend I had all through high school.”

On being interested in acting: “Only if it was a show that I loved, like CSI or Grey’s Anatomy, or if it was a really cool script. But I’m not feeling this desperate urge.”

On people taking pictures of her all the time: “Well, I’ve never had paparazzi in Nashville before; that’s a new thing. You really have a lot of privacy here. I saw that documentary on Britney Spears, and I feel bad for her—she can’t leave her house!”
