Everyday, when listening to people answer the question, "Do you listen to Country?" I hear the same answer, "Yes, but not the Country that they play on the radio" Well, somebody is listening to it,so I set out to interview all of the brand new country stars to find out what makes them tick and see how they feel about the state of today's country music. My lawyer has recommended, to avoid lawsuits, that I stress that these "interviews" are strictly satire and are for entertainment purposes only.

RCS Interview with Taylor Swift
Crash: Here I am today with Country Beauty, Taylor Swift. Ms. Swift, How are you today?
TS: I’m doing great Crash, thanks for having me today, and it’s just Taylor.
Crash: O.K. Taylor, before we begin, I just want to ask you personal question if I may.
TS: You can ask…shoot.
Crash: Can I smell your feet?
TS: Ewwwww. Gross. No!
Crash: Well, it’s probably your vagina then.
TS: WHAT?
Crash: Nothing. I was joking. I’m sure you smell fine down there. I was just trying to break the ice and make you feel a little more comfortable for the interview.
TS: Well, can we change the subject and maybe talk about my new album?
Crash: I’d rather not. To be honest, I haven’t even listened to it, but I already know what it is about. I think you’re cute and all but all the songs about high school break ups and those awkward teenage years don’t really appeal to me. This is what...your third album? How many dudes could have cheated on you in high school?
TS: Yes, “Speak Now” is my third album, but this one is different…more mature.
Crash: So, instead of a 16 yr old bitching about men, it’s a 19 year old doing it? Plus, you will look back one day and be sooooo glad that you didn’t end up with one of your loser high school boyfriends. The one great thing about fame is that you can give a rat’s ass about them while they regret it for the rest of their life.
TS: I’m not that kind of person. I like regular ole guys. I’m looking for love; I’m not into the fame. Fame means nothing to me if I can’t have a connection.
Crash: Is that why you dated that Jonas Brother and were fucking that vampire dude?
TS: He wasn’t a vampire, he is a werewolf and we were in love, not “effing”.
Crash: Semantics. So what was up with that vampire dude? What’s his name?
TS: His name was Taylor, Taylor Lautner, and he was a werewolf. What do you mean, “What’s up with him?”
Crash: That guy is like the Matthew Mcconaghey of werewolves. Why is he always taking his shirt off?
TS: I guess he is just proud of his body…can we get back to my new Country album?
Crash: That’s exactly what I wanted talk to you about. Besides having a fiddle every once and a while, what makes your music country?
TS: I’m just a simple girl from Pennsylvania and I just sing about my feelings and emotions.
Crash: But you’re not answering my question. You wear cowboy boots with those cute little sundresses but there is nothing remotely country about your music. You have great market appeal and your label is doing a great job marketing you, but it’s not really “Country”. I know you think it is and your label tells you and your fans it is, but its teeny-bop pop music. I’m not trying to attack you personally; I’m not going to bring up your Grammy appearance that you caught hell over or whether or not you deserved female vocalist of the year. I’m just tired of being told that I am listening to one thing and being delivered something different.
TS: I hear that a lot and my answer is that I am a part of the “New Country” movement. I grew up listing to Garth Brooks and Shania Twain and try to use those influences to model my career. They were very successful artists and help Country to become more mainstream. This is the evolution of Country Music.
Crash: See, that’s what we aren’t buying. This is the DEvolution of Country Music. I’ll give credit, you write your own music and songs, work hard, and I don’t know if those squinty little eyes or what, but I think you are hot, but It’s not Country just as “alternative music” isn’t alternative anymore. It used to stand for something but now the suits have gotten control of it and it’s become commercialized. You aren’t an artist anymore; no matter how much you think you are, you are a brand, plain and simple.
TS: Just because you don’t call it something doesn’t mean that it isn’t.
Crash: No, just because you DO call it something doesn’t mean that it IS. The two people that you named didn’t start the trend but they sure as hell took it over the edge and ruined it for true fans. The IPod evolved from vinyl but you can’t tell me that they are the same. They may both play music but other than that they are different. If I tried to sell you a 45 and told you that it’s an IPod, you would say that I am crazy. I’m not saying that they don’t do what they are supposed to, but just call it what it is…Pop.
TS: Well, I am a Country girl and I am a Country singer.
Crash: How do you explain your “rap” video with T-Pain? Is that Country?
TS: It was just a funny goof for the CMA awards.
Crash: This is what you don’t get. Some marketing genius took two people from the most exploited music genres of today and put them together. It’s almost as if it was meant to be a joke just to see how dumb the American public is. This wasn’t Willie and Ray Charles; this is just a shame.

TS: You’re a real ass, you know that? Way to pick on a 19 year old girl.
Crash: Like I said earlier, I’m not trying to make this personal. I think you are hot, but just wanted to interview you before you pull a Britney or a Lindsey Lohan. After the transformation, then I’ll try to hit on you.
TS: I am NOT going to turn out like them, and, gross, why would you want to date me after that? Does that turn you on? They are disgusting.
Crash: I’m not going to say that it WILL happen to you, but the cards are stacked against you and don’t judge me. I can’t help what I like. I’m what you call an “emotional necrophiliac”…I’ll fuck you but you have to be completely dead on the inside. Give me your number now and I’ll call you in a few years.
TS: Alright, I’m tired of being insulted. If you don’t like my music…fine, but don’t question my character. I don’t care how down and out I may get, but I would never, and I mean NEVER sleep with you.
Crash: (Yelling as TS walks towards the door) DOES THIS MEAN I CAN’T HAVE YOUR NUMBER?
