It only makes sense.
Taylor Swift had the best-selling album of 2008; now she's starting the year as Saturday Night Live's first musical guest, on this weekend's show hosted by Neil Patrick Harris.
How do we know?She announced it on her personal MySpace blog.
And, boy, is this one excited teen: “I just found out that I get to play on SNL!!" Swit writes. ”January 10th! It’s my mom’s birthday, and I don’t think either of us would’ve believed you if you would’ve told us a few years ago that we’d get to spend her birthday in New York City — at Saturday Night Live! Wow. It’s pretty unreal.”
She ended her journal entry with this: "P.S. I may or may not be shooting the video for "White Horse" this week ... What? Video? What video?"
Swift rang in the New Year performing in NYC on Dick Clark's Rockin' New Year's Eve.
