Being a Good BFF
That is why, now, when one of her friend's is suffering through the same thing, she was there for her. Sources say that she texted Demi, saying that "everything happens for a reason, and it will only make her stronger. She told Demi if she ever needed anything, to just ask."
Here is a video made by ClevverTV that explains what happened:

"Taylor Makes History With BMI Pop Song of the Year Award"
Also, here I leave you an article with information you might find interesting, from TaylorSwift.com:
Taylor Swift won top honors at last night’s BMI Pop Awards in Los Angeles, taking home the prestigious Song of the Year award for her multi-genre international #1 smash “Love Story.”20-year old Taylor is the youngest songwriter in history to win this honor, and the first country winner in more than a decade. The most recent country songwriters honored with this award were Stephanie Bentley for “Breathe” in 2000, Shania Twain for “You’re Still The One” in 1998, and Dolly Parton in 1993 for “I Will Always Love You.”
“Love Story,” which Taylor wrote by herself, was honored for receiving more radio airplay in the past year than any other pop song. “Love Story” earned BMI’s Country Song of the Year honors in 2009, and Taylor also won BMI’s Country Song of the Year in 2008, for “Teardrops On My Guitar.” That year she became the youngest songwriter in any genre to win the honor, and Taylor is the first female songwriter in history to win back-to-back BMI Song of the Year awards, in any genre.
“Love Story,” from Taylor’s 6x-Platinum FEARLESS album, topped Billboard’s Country, Pop and A/C charts in the US, and became a global sensation, reaching #1 in countries including the UK, Canada, Australia, Singapore and New Zealand. “Love Story” is also the most downloaded country single in US history.

Next, Taylor will be a part of a new concert that helps with flood relief and recovery in Nashville, called Nashville Rising on June 22. You can buy tickets here, but I think they are over by now.

Great News!
First off, I just wanted to say that there is new information that kind of "confirms" that Taylor and Cory Monteith are going out. As you can see in the video above, when the Glee star was interviewed by Ellen DeGeneres, he wasn't very sure what to say. It on was very easy to believe that they are in fact going out, because he only said good things about her and he never exactly denied it. The only thing he said was that they were "just friends."
I personally would love it if they were going out, because I think they are both amazing people, but I'm not sure it is true. Both Taylor and Cory have many things in their schedule, and they have only been seen together once or twice.
The other news I have about Taylor is that she was recently inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. She "will be awarded the Hal David Starlight Award, which highlights young songwriters whom have made a large impact in the music industry writing and recording original songs (TaylorSwift.com)."
It will take place on Thursday, June 17 at the 2010 Songwriters Hall of Fame Awards Dinner at the New York City Marriott Marquis hotel. So for those who live near, don't miss it! Congrats again Taylor!

"Taylor Swift's Big Donation"
She also appeared on TV in the flood relief fund during the Vince Gill and Friends telethon (CMT) asking for food relief donations in Nashville. She gave an example by donating the money. The flood killed 20 people in Nashville only, and 30 in other three states. Taylor said: "Nashville is my home and the reason why I get to do what I love. I honestly could not believe what was happening to the city and the people I love so dearly." She also stated that "I have always been proud to be a Nashvillian, but especially now, seeing the love that runs through this city when there are people in crisis. (USMagazine.com)"
Taylor is very nice by doing this, although it was nothing new. I hope the people are save, and help by donating whatever you can! Every part matters! Watch the E!News video:

A Little Bit About Everything
As you might have guessed already by the title, this post has no true topic. It is basically about everything that is going on in Taylor's life recently.
I want to start saying that as Taylor herself has stated via Twitter, Tennessee is suffering from a great flood, and it would be great if you would help support it.
Next, Taylor was named one of the 100 most influential people in the world by the Time Magazine. That is why she went to the Time 100 Gala at the Frederick P. Rose Hall at NYC’s Jazz at Lincoln Center this Tuesday. She was wearing a white dress from the Ralph Lauren collection, which her trademark red lipstick. The Gala was hosted by Vogue, and everyone looked like princesses.
Another thing that happened recently was that the official Taylor Swift comic book is being made. Taylor looks exactly as she does in real life, like you can see in the image above. It will have stories about her, and other things not yet revealed.
The last news I come to tell you today is that there is a rumor going on that says that Taylor, Selena Gomez, and Dakota Fanning are going to audition for the same part in a movie. "That's the opportunity (and problem) facing the people producing the upcoming flick The Seven Rays, an adaptation of the book of the same name. They're looking for someone to play a 17-year old girl who finds out that the lady she thought was her mother, actually is not. (DisneyStars)" I think it is a VERY difficult decision, and although I love Taylor and her acting skills, I think I would give the part to Selena. Or maybe, depending on the role, Dakota would be a more fitting actress.
I am really excited to see who ends up being the chosen one. As soon as there is more Taylor news I will be right there to tell you! Bye! :)

Next Step: Covergirl
There is other news I really have to tell you about Taylor, but I have to tell the truth. I am not exactly that excited about it, not because it is not important, but because these types of things are just too common in the Taylor universe. And well, I guessed that if I already got a little bored with them then you might not care that much either. So I decided to tell you that news really fast first and then I will say the one I DO care about.
Here it goes. Taylor just finished shooting her first advertisements for Covergirl, and will represent a new line of luxury products for the brand. The ads are scheduled to debut in January 2011.
“With her fresh beauty and authentic style, Taylor is a wonderful addition to the COVERGIRL family,” said Vince Hudson, General Manager, COVERGIRL Cosmetics. “Through all her success, Taylor remains a grounded and sincere woman who connects with fans everywhere just by being true to who she is. She personifies the iconic image of the brand while representing the next generation of both inner and outer beauty.”
“I am so excited to become the next COVERGIRL,” said Taylor. “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” (TaylorSwift.com)
The second news, which I personally find a lot more fun, is that there is kind of an application in the Cyber-shot website where you can "take pictures" of Taylor. A window appears when you open the website and Taylor tells you to take pictures. You can take six pictures, of Taylor with three different dresses and three different (but very similar) backgrounds. All the time Taylor is moving and dancing through the window and you move the camera until you want to take the picture and click. The image is saved, and when you are done taking all of them it asks you for your name. If you click get autograph then the picture appears saying "I Heart (insert your name here). Love, Taylor."
I myself thought it was pretty cool, so you might as well go and try it yourself! BTW thanks to Taylor Alison Swift Fans for the information!
