Taylor Swift And Chris Robinson Get Togather: Black Crowes frontman Chris Robinson handed out his opinion on country starlet Taylor Swift recently, branding the blond "horrible.""I find it embarrassing that adults are like, 'Taylor Swift is very talented.' She's not. She might be cute, but she's horrible," Robinson told Nylon Guys, according to Contact Music. It seems that Kate Hudson's ex-husband takes issue with the production style employed by Swift and her popular counterparts.

"They have stylists who dress them, they make records with producers who play a chord into the computer and it all comes out the same ... when you have computers doing it all for you ... there's no individuality. Singing isn't always about being on key; it's about emotionality [sic]," he argues.' says Black Crowes' Chris Robinson‎

Taylor Swift Singing With Chris Robinson: Grumpy rocker Chris Robinson has become the latest star to attack country sweetheart Taylor Swift - almost a year after Kanye West ruined her big night at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards by protesting her first-ever win at the event.

Unprovoked, the Black Crowes frontman has taken issue with Swift over claims she's one of the most talented singers in the industry today. He's not a fan. Robinson tells Nylon Guys magazine, "I find it embarrassing that adults are like, 'Taylor Swift is very talented.' She's not. She might be cute, but she's horrible."

The rocker insists there are very few modern artists he enjoys listening to - because most acts are little more than products of a computer. He explains, "They have stylists who dress them, they make records with producers who play a chord into the computer and it all comes out the same... When you have computers doing it all for you ... there's no individuality. Singing isn't always about being on key; it's about emotionality (sic)."

Taylor Swift Make A Contribution $100,000 To School: Country singing star Taylor Swift has donated $100,000 to build a new playground for kids in a town in Tennessee where she went to school. The 'Love Story' hitmaker handed over the cash to officials in the hope they could use it to benefit those who have been struggling in the wake of the 2010 floods which swept through Hendersonville, reported Contactmusic.

But her business manager has suggested the funds will go toward updating the Kids Kingdom play area, as well as the city's volleyball courts. "We appreciate Taylor's donation as well as all the others who have stepped up," said Hendersonville spokesman Dave LeMarbre. The old playground is expected to be torn down later this year and rebuilt in early 2011.

Taylor Swift Talk About her New Song Mine: After taking inspiration from her old crushes like a guy named Drew in "Teardrops on My Guitar" and Joe Jonas in "Forever & Always", Taylor Swift continues to bare her past love story in her song. This time around, she admitted that her new single "Mine" also talks about one of the guys she used to like.

"I was reflecting back on a boy I liked at a certain time," the 20-year-old country music singer told Rolling Stone. Without naming the guy, she continued her statement, "The song is about what it would be like if I actually let my guard down."

"Mine" is the lead single from Taylor Swift's new album "Speak Now" which is slated for October 25 U.S. release. The song was leaked days before the release date, making it pushed forward for early release. Despite the premature arrival, it performed and sold well and she thanked fans for that.

"[My manager] said, 'I don't want you to panic.' And I said, 'The song leaked, didn't it?' " she recalled "I turned on my phone and there were texts saying, 'Congratulations.' A leak is so out of my comfort zone, but it ended up good in the end. It made me so emotional that I started crying."

The music video is co-directed by Swift and Roman White and will be premiered on August 27. Starring Toby Hemingway, it will see her getting proposed by "The Covenant" actor and walking down the aisle with him.

Taylor Swift Explode To Nominat For High School: The dreamy landscape of her "Fifteen" video had Taylor Swift recalling her high school days, when she thought she was in love with that guy she was dating and she didn't know what would become of her life. And when she worked on the Best Female Video-nominated clip last year with "You Belong With Me" director Roman White, he wanted to capture the essence of the song without getting too literal. "Well, I think I really wanted this video to kind of be an evolution for Taylor," White said. "I mean, obviously it's a high school song, but the last thing I wanted to do was shoot it in a high school. So I wanted to try something different, and I actually said to her, 'I don't think we should shoot in a high school.' And I don't think she wanted to either."So how do you shoot a video about high school without actually staging it in a high school? "I kind of came up with this idea like, let's take the literal meaning of this song and watch it evolve in front of us ... almost as a memory in your head," he said. "And create this world, so you walk in on this desolate desert and you start to sing about all these great memories you have ... of everything you love [blooming] around you, and so we literally grew this garden around her."

White decided to keep it a bit strange as well. "But also we added these surreal elements that came from the memory," he said. "It's kind of this cross between this surreal garden and this memory [and] she's at the heart of this memory.

Taylor Swift PhotShoot With Punk Band: About three years ago, Taylor Swift met pop-punk band Paramore at a party for Grammy nominees in Nashville, a city both acts call home. What a funny meeting that was, by the way – They all focused on their differences in height, like, right away. “God, I’m such a towering GIANT!” Taylor said as she stood nearly a foot above Paramore members.

“No dude,” retorted lead singer Hayley Williams, “we’re freakin’ MIDGETS!”Since then, Taylor and the guys and gal in Paramore have been great friends. And here’s the latest proof: Taylor put a sparkly No. 13 (her lucky number) on the bass of a guy in New Found Glory, a punk-rock band opening for Paramore. Paramore put the pic up on its Web site with the caption: “Taylor helped Ian (Grushka) decorate his bass with a bedazzled 13! Pimp for sure.”
