Living above the influence

Taylor Glamour

A beautiful Taylor Swift graces the cover of the November issue of Glamour Magazine. In the article she was asked about her song "Dear John" and the claims that it was about John Mayer after their brief fling in 2010. She denies the claim and when told that Mayer himself believes the song is about him she responded, "How presumptuous! I never disclose who my songs are about." When ABC's Cynthia McFadden, who interviewed Swift for the magazine, attempts to read Mayer's quotes, the country singer cuts her short. "No! I don't want to know, I don't want to know. I know it wasn't good, so I don't want to know. I put a high priority on staying happy, and I know what I can't handle. It's not that I'm this egomaniac and I don't want to hear anything negative, because I do keep myself in check. But I've never developed that thick a skin. So I just kind of live a life, and I let all the gossip live somewhere else. If you go too far down the rabbit hole of what people think about you, it can change everything about who you are."

I love Taylor's ability to live above the influence of stardom, too many young starlets can't and end up like Lindsay Lohan and Amanda Bynes.

Regardless of whether or not you're a fan of her music you have to respect that she's a good role model for young girls.
