Taylor Swift may only be 19 years old, but as Katie Couric discovers, she is wise beyond her years.

In an interview on Katie Couric's "All Access" Grammy Special, to be broadcast Wednesday, Feb. 4 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS, Swift, who at 14 was writing songs for artists twice her age, recalls her real-life "Mean Girls" experience.

"I had a group of friends when I was about 12. [Then] they all just decided they didn't wanna hang out with me anymore. I would go and sit down at the lunch table with my friends. And they would get up and move their trays to another table," she reveals to Couric. But Swift also puts it all in perspective, saying, "had [they] kept me in their group, and I had been the most popular girl in middle school, I would never have been inspired to write one song."

Swift also admits her dark side when she talks about her upcoming appearance on "CSI."

"I'm obsessed with crime shows... All my friends know that my dream is to die on 'CSI.' I've always wanted to, like, be one of the characters on there that they're tryin' to figure out what happened to."

While she may still be shooting for her first Grammy win, Swift is closing out her eighth week at the top of the charts with her album "Fearless," and she shows Couric why she's one of the industry's hottest artists as she plays guitar for the CBS News anchor.

The duo also visit the New York City boutique, Jeffrey's where Swift shows off her fashion sense and her own interview skills when she interviews Couric for her MySpace blog.

"All Access" will also feature Couric's interviews with Justin Timberlake, Katy Perry and Lil' Wayne as well as appearances by Jonas Brothers, Carrie Underwood, John Legend, Ne-Yo, Metallica and many more.

A couple more years and nobody will even remember her name. Everything in music looks and sounds the same now and is unoriginal.

How is it that even on the other side theres still whining? The rest of the world, and more than half of the USA, is happy with what transpired on election night except for the small percentage of dillusional Repo''s who still think that the ''W'' years were the best we ever had and he''s a great leader because he foresaw the attack and didn''t do anything about it except to plummet an already emotionally fragile country into war. Ever stop to think that maybe, JUST MAYBE, the world doesnt revolve around the USA and the political leaders???
