American singer-songwriter Taylor Alison Swift is featured on the May 2016 issue of Vogue. highlights from Taylor Swift's interview include:
On what she's going to do with the rest of her life:
“I have no idea,” she says, with a sigh that’s more blissful than anxious. “This is the first time in ten years that I haven’t known. I just decided that after the past year, with all of the unbelievable things that happened…I decided I was going to live my life a little bit without the pressure on myself to create something.”
On continuing her musical endeavors, but also expanding her horizons:
“I’m always going to be writing songs,” Swift says. “The thing is, with me, I could very well com up with three things in the next two weeks and then jump back into the studio, and all of a sudden the next record is started. That’s an option, too.”
But probably not for the moment. “I would really like to take a little time to learn things…I want to be a well-rounded person who can make a good drink…to be able to save somebody if they’re drowning…I do things like this,” Swift says. Once, “I got it in my head that I couldn’t do a split, and I was really upset about it. And so I stretched every single day for a year until I could do a split. Somehow I feel better knowing that I can."
On her relationship with Scottish DJ-producer Calvin Harris:
“I’m just taking things as they come,” Swift says. “I’m in a magical relationship right now. And of course I want it to be ours, and low-key…this is the one thing that’s been mine about my personal life."
On her “squad” of celebrity female friends, who, depending on the jab, are either too glam or too phony or some combination of the two:
“Ugh,” Swift says when I bring it up. “I’ve had people say really hurtful things about me, and so I’ve kind of learned how to gauge it: ‘This is, like, low-to-medium-level hurtful.'
“There are a lot of really easy ways to dispel rumors,” she explains. “If they say you are pregnant, all you have to do is continue to not be pregnant and not have a baby. If the rumor is that you have fake friendships, all you have to do is continue to be there for each other. And when we’re all friends in fifteen years and raising our kids together, maybe somebody will look back and go, ‘That was kind of ridiculous what we said about Taylor and her friends.’"
