Taylor Swift covers the new issue of Vanity Fair, which is somewhat of a big deal, as the September issue is considered to be the legendary mag’s biggest of the year, and it’s usually reserved for major figures in the world of fashion. Is this VF’s way of saying Taylor has transcended music and achieved full-blown style icon status? We don’t know, but Taylor’s insights on everything from the famous Swifty girl squad to how she feels about being interrupted by Kanye at the VMAs all these years later help to make this one of her most interesting interviews to date. On Her Chick Clique:  “We even have girls in our group who have dated the same people. It’s almost like the sisterhood has such a higher place on the list of priorities for us. “It’s so much more important than some guy that it didn’t work out with…now more than ever we need to be good and kind to each other and not judge each other—and just because you have the same taste in men, we don’t hold that against each other.” On Her Idols:  If you look at Oprah, she’s made so many people happy over the years. She’s made so much money, but she’s given so much of it away. “Same thing with Angelina Jolie. She’s been so productive, but she’s used that position to better other people’s lives, and I think that’s where I’d want to be.” On Her Love Life: “That was the way that I decided to go on with my life. Not looking for anything, not necessarily being open to anything, and only being open to the idea that, if I found someone who would never try to change me, that would be the only person I could fall in love with. Because, you know, I was in love with my life.” On Yeezus Interruptus:  “I feel like I wasn’t ready to be friends with [West] until I felt like he had some sort of respect for me, and he wasn’t ready to be friends with me until he had some sort of respect for me—so it was the same issue, and we both reached the same place at the same time. I became friends with Jay Z, and I think it was important, for Jay Z, for Kanye and I to get along.” It sounds like Taylor only forgave Kanye recently, which means Beck won’t be ready to bury the hatchet with Yeezy until President Trump is halfway through his first term. We kid! The idea of Beck being pissed for that long is much too terrible to imagine.
