Vogue's next cover girl may not have a successful record of selling magazines, but she sure knows a thing or two about penning chart-topping songs based off "that awful pain of losing someone."
Allentown-native Taylor Swift goes from blasé to boho in Rodarte on the February cover of the publication. The brilliant images, which were shot by the one and only Mario Testino, accompany a heart-felt interview with Billboard's 2011 Woman of the Year, where she discusses her childhood summers in Stone Harbor and her awkward phases in Wyomissing, which the writer describes as "an affluent suburb of Reading."
Swift also gives a few hints regarding her much-anticipated, upcoming album, and says all her songs are centered on "this earth-shattering, not recent, but absolute crash-and-burn heartbreak" she encountered.
So which ex-boyfriend should be afraid?
Among the four options, Jake Gyllenhaal primarily comes to mind, considering that the actor broke up with the 22-year-old artist in early 2011 after a few months of blissful dating. However, Swift also has previous romantic ties with Twilight franchise mega-star Taylor Lautner, musician John Mayer, and the Disney Channel's big, bad heart-breaker Joe Jonas.
Or maybe all should be weary, since Taylor compiles a list of four relationship "red flags." They include: A guy who has "bought into the whole idea" of her, someone who makes her feel like she's "some sort of princessy diva," a person who puts her down "in order to level the playing field," and a privacy-bent maniac.
All we have to say to this list of flagged men is-- Why you gotta be so mean?
The issue hits stands on January 24. Better get on that, boys.
