As much as I want to hate Taylor Swift, I just can’t. She’s tall and skinny and cute and successful and, well, funny. The earnest 19-year-old hosted and performed on Saturday Night Live this weekend, fulfilling a childhood dream she’s had for the past… two years? In her monologue she recalled staying up past her bedtime, watching Bill Heder and Andy Samberg.
She also grabbed her trusty acoustic guitar and sang a cute little “Monologue Song” about how she wouldn’t mention all the gossip-worthy topics we expected: her douchey ex-boyfriend Joe Jonas, her possible Twilight boyfriend Taylor Lautner, and her VMA nemesis Kanye West. Take a look:
(For the record, she sang, ”If you’re wondering if I might be dating the werewolf from Twilight…” and then stopped to wave at the camera, mouth, “Hi, Taylor,” wink and blow a kiss. What do you guys think? Practically confirmation, right? For her sake, I hope he’s more gentlemanly than Joe Jonas. He’s definitely hotter!)
Other highlights from the show included Taylor playing our fave blond octomom Kate Gosselin in a funny parody segment of The View. What do you gals think? Does Taylor have comedy chops? Or should she stick to the ditties about cheerleaders and boys?
Hey Taylor Swift I love you and your music your just awesome, I also know your fav number it is 13! I love country music and you so I admire you. I went to your concert in Greensboro on June 12, 2009! Your the best! tswift13
I thought she killed on just about every skit (even the 12:30 throwaways). Had me wondering if we had a female Justin Timberlake on our hands. I don’t even follow Taylor Swift, didn’t care about her, and I can’t wait to watch if she hosts again.
