Taylor Swift aims at Jake Gyllenhaal on new album?

LOS ANGELES: Taylor Swift says her new album will be about an “absolute crash-and-burn heartbreak,” prompting speculation in the media that the latest subject of her songwriting skills may be her short-lived 2010 crush on Jake Gyllenhaal.

Swift, 22, whose “Dear John” song was seen as a bitter ode to ex-boyfriend John Mayer, told Vogue magazine that she was working on her fourth album, and is currently single.

The country-pop crossover artist, who famously wears her heart on her songwriter’s sleeve, said that writing about past loves is a way to ease the pain.

“There’s just been this earth-shattering, not recent, but absolute crash-and-burn heartbreak and that will turn out to be what the next album is about,” she told Vogue in a cover story for its February edition.

“The only way that I can feel better about myself — pull myself out of that awful pain of losing someone — is writing songs about it to get some sort of clarity,” she said.

Swift dated “Brokeback Mountain” star Gyllenhaal for about three months in late 2010 before their much-photographed relationship ended suddenly around the Christmas holidays that year. U.S. celebrity magazines claimed that Gyllenhaal had ended the relationship because he was unhappy at the attention the couple was generating.

Swift told Vogue she did not feel like dating at the moment. “I really have this great life right now, and I’m not sad and I’m not crying this Christmas, so I am really stoked about that.”

Asked whether she was crying last Christmas, Swift replied, “I am not gonna go into it! It’s a sad story!”

Swift gave no details, but media speculation over whom she was talking about quickly fell on Gyllenhaal, her last known relationship.

The Grammy-winning young singer’s previous romances with “Twilight” actor Taylor Lautner and singer Joe Jonas are widely thought to have inspired her songs “Back to December” and “Forever and Always”.

“I think I am smart unless I am really, really in love, and then I am ridiculously stupid,” she told Vogue. But she said she had learned some of the romantic pitfalls to avoid, including obsessive privacy.

“I can’t deal with someone who’s obsessed with privacy. People kind of care if there are two famous people dating. But no one cares that much. If you care about privacy to the point where we need to dig a tunnel under this restaurant so that we can leave? I can’t do that,” she said. AGENCIES

IATA says volcano impact on airlines bigger than 9/11
PARIS, April 19 (Reuters) – The International Air Transport Association (IATA) said on Monday European governments’ response to the volcano crisis was inadequate and estimated its economic impact to be greater than the 2001 Sept. 11 attacks.

Giovanni Bisignani, head of the IATA airline industry body, estimated airline revenue losses were now reaching $250 million a day, up from an earlier estimate of $200 million on Friday.

Bisignani called for urgent action to safely re-open airspace and called for a meeting of the International Civil Aviation Organization, the United Nations aviation body.

“We must move away from this blanket closure and find ways to flexibly open air space, step by step,” Bisignani told a news briefing in Paris.

“We have to make decisions based on the real situation and not on theoretical models. They (the authorities) have missed opportunities to fly safely,” he said.

toby keith cryin for me

Latest Updates Wayman Tisdale, Toby Keith, Taylor Swift, Tim Mcgraw, Trace Adkins: Did you guys watch the Academy of Country Music Awards tonight? I personally love country music. Part of the reason I love it so much is that it tells a story with most of its songs. If you did watch tonight, then you heardToby Keith as he sang the song “Cryin’ for Me (Wayman’s Song)”. It is a song that was dedicated to his friend Wayman Tisdale who passed away on May 15, 2009 from complications with bone cancer.

Cancer is a disease that touches so many lives each and every year. It seems as though every day I hear of someone that suffers with knowing someone personally that is battling cancer. If I could have the ability to find a cure for cancer, that would be at the top of my list. Since I don’t think I will personally be the one to come up with that cure, I want to help out in the ways I can. One of those ways is by donating to help find a cure!

Toby Keith describes Wayman as an amazing guy. In his song “Cryin’ for Me (Wayman’s Song)”, there is a line that says, “he showed us how to live and now he showed me how to die.” He says Wayman didn’t frown of people for how they live; he led by example. That is why Toby has partnered with ACM LIFTING LIVES and SU2C (Stand Up to Cancer) to donate 100% of the proceeds of the performance downloads to support the cause of finding a cure.
