If you listen to Taylor Swift's new album 'Speak Now,' you'll certainly hear songs that remind you of the singer's life."My next album is something I'm really proud of. I can only write about what I've been through. And a lot has happened in the past two years," Swift tells Glamour.
"Everything that happens to me gets put into a song," she adds. "For some reason, I'm really comfortable talking about my personal life in songs. There, I don't hold back: names, dates, times, expressions on people's faces, exactly where we were and how it felt, what I wish I would have said to them in the moment."
Swift, who has has been interrupted on stage by Kanye, won several Grammys and other awards, and gone through high-profile relationships with 'Twilight' star Taylor Lautner and Joe Jonas, can't wait for reactions to her new tunes.
"I'm not only excited about sharing the songs with fans; I'm also pretty interested to hear the response from the guys I've written about on this record," she explains.
On her life: I've gone through a few different phases of gratitude. When it's happening, you're all about [what's next] and trying not to make a misstep. When it came time to lock myself away and make my next album, I had a feeling of, Wow, that really was something, wasn't it? I drive down the same streets I used to drive years ago, when I was just dreaming about stuff like this. So I feel total happiness and anticipation for the next thing.

Prepare yourselves for a, yes, huge disappointment: News broke today that ABC Family has axed Huge, the series following teens sent to a summer weight-loss camp, after just one season.

For weeks now I’ve been comparing Clint Eastwood’s upcoming drama Hereafter to 2006′s Babel, since they both include three distinct storylines that end up intersecting by the end of the film. (And because I loved both movies.) Now I’ve just received word from Warner Bros.’ awards consultant that Matt Damon will be campaigned in the lead actor category despite appearing in less than half of the film. By contrast, the entire cast of Babel was touted in the supporting categories. (Brad Pitt, Adriana Barraza, and Rinko Kikuchi earned Golden Globe nominations, while Barraza and Kikuchi repeated at the Oscars.)

Tony Gilroy, the screenwriter behind all of the Bourne movies will get a shot a directing the fourth installment with the news today that he’s in final negotiations to helm the fourth installment in the Bourne franchise, The Bourne Legacy. Deadline Hollywood first broke the news. How this will manifest itself on the big screen is still a big question. Star Matt Damon has made it very clear that he would not return to the franchise that made him a household name without his preferred director Paul Greengrass.
That this was inevitable doesn’t make it any less sad: Starz has officially started looking for an actor to replace Andy Whitfield on Spartacus.
