Taylor Swift is a sparkle goddess on the cover of Glamour.

It's been a great few weeks for Taylor Swift, what with earning five MTV EMA nods and appearing on the cover of Glamour magazine's November issue (in yet another sparkly dress). But who are we kidding -- that's just any ol' week for Taylor considering in recent days she's also released her new smash "Begin Again," totally killed it onstage at the 2012 MTV VMAs, and will soon release her brand-new album, Red, on Oct. 22. We could go on, but we've only got so much room per blog post!

Check out more photos from Taylor Swift's Glamour shoot after the jump.

Inside Glamour's November issue (check out her Marie Claire cover, because she's on that, too!) Taylor not only looks like like chicest traveler we've ever seen, but she opens up about her career, friendships, and the drama surrounding her song "Dear John." When asked if "Dear John" was in fact about John Mayer, Taylor explains, "How presumptuous! I never disclose who my songs are about." We love you, Tay, but the jig is up! Writing about your exes is your thing and you know it. On her close pals, Taylor divulges, "I've developed this really close-knit group of girls. Two of my close friends are bandmates. My other close friends are Ashley, Claire, Diana, Emma, and Selena." And in case you weren't convinced that Taylor's life was special enough, "Emma" is actually Emma Stone and "Selena" is actually Selena Gomez. Just some normal old pals from her school days, you know. Except not at ALL.
