Taylor Swift is on the cover of Vogue's February issue.
Should Jake Gyllenhaal be worried?
Taylor Swift graces the cover of Vogue's February issue and tells the magazine her next album will be about an "absolute crash-and-burn heartbreak" she experienced.
The 22-year-old singer doesn't name names, but she did date Gyllenhaal for a few months in 2010, and he broke up with her.
Swift says it helps her to "feel better" and gain "clarity" by writing songs about her relationships.
She also says she now has a list of "red flags" for if a relationship won't work: If a guy falls in love with her based on her Wikipedia page, is threatened that she needs security, puts her down or is obsessed with privacy, he's not for her.
The February issue of Vogue magazine goes on sale Jan. 24.
Rushdie booking draws protests
Organizers of an Indian literary festival said Tuesday they hope Salman Rushdie will attend, despite calls by Muslim clerics to ban the British-Indian author from the event.
Rushdie's planned appearance at the Jaipur Literary Festival has sparked an outcry among some Muslims who consider his 1988 book "The Satanic Versus" blasphemous.
Last week, Darul Uloom seminary leader Maulana Abdul Qasim Nomani urged the government to bar Rushdie from the five-day event that starts Friday. The 150-year-old seminary preaches an austere form of Islam that has inspired millions of Muslims, including the Taliban.
The 64-year-old author has attended the annual festival previously without incident.
'Teen Mom' arrested again
A star of the MTV reality show "Teen Mom 2" has been arrested for the second time in less than a week in southeastern North Carolina.
Jenelle Evans was charged Monday night with violating a domestic violence protection order. Evans was still being held in the Brunswick County jail Tuesday morning, but officials at the jail didn't have more details on the arrest.
The 20-year-old was arrested last week and charged with making harassing phone calls and communicating threats.
Evans was also charged with assault in March. A month later, she received 12 months of probation and community service on a drug paraphernalia charge.
In August, she was charged with a probation violation after testing positive for marijuana and opiates.
