Public Readings - Off Cape, Taylor’s seeing ‘Red’. Country crooner Taylor Swift spent an action-packed weekend with the Kennedy clan in Hyannisport then jetted home to Nashville yesterday to make a “big announcement” on her official YouTubechannel.
Tay Tay, who dropped a cool $5 million for the house next door to her new boyfriend Conor Kennedy’s grammy Ethel (Stage 5 Clinger alert!) was snapped sporting a red polka-dot bikini top as she frolicked with Conor’s dad, Bobby Kennedy Jr., and other members of the political dynasty on the Cape.
Red is, of course, Taylor’s new fave shade since it’s also the name of her new album. The chipper pop superstar announced that the new CD will hit the shelves Oct. 22 and it will, no doubt, have some reference to her new romance with the Kennedy scion.
“Well, you know I tend to kind of skew in the direction of writing songs about love-related things,” said Swift, who was clad in a tomato-red dress and matching lipstick for her Web chat.
“It’s about the tumultuous, crazy intense, semi-toxic relationships that I’ve experienced in the last two years,” Taylor told a group of lucky fans, plus the 65,000 tuning in on the interwebs. “All those emotions, intense love, intense frustration, love, jealousy, all those emotions are red. There’s nothing beige about any of those feelings.”
Swift then debuted her first single off the album, a catchy little ditty called “We Are Never, Ever Getting Back Together.” As you’d expect, she dedicated it to an ex-boyfriend.
Can’t wait for the inevitable Conor breakup. Wethinks she’ll have no dearth of material to work with there ...
