Taylor Swift outside The Ed Sullivan Theater in New York before her appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman (10/23)

Taylor Swift is no longer part of the Kennedy family circle. She dumped boyfriend Conor Kennedy. Wow, good job Taylor. Normally you have to get jumped out of the Kennedy family circle, like a gang. From Us Weekly:

After an intense couple months of dating, Taylor Swift and Conor Kennedy have broken up, a close friend of the country singer confirms exclusively to Us Weekly.

"They quietly parted ways a while ago," the friend explains of the "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" crooner, 22, and the high school senior, 18. "It was just a distance thing. No hard feelings. They're fine."

But despite Swift's speedy summertime bond with her new man and his brood, the romance had to take a backseat to Swift's work duties.

"It's been over a month since they've even seen each other," the friend explains. "With her promotion for [new album] Red, she has no time off until the end of the year."

Let me guess: Taylor and her songwriters are gonna pen a little tune inspired by Conor and the Kennedys based on wedding crashing and getting plowed by two brothers? Or in other words, a country song. On a side note, I'm pretty sure I captured the essence of every country song ever written. Wedding crashing, cousin'-fuckin', and pickup trucks -- the only thing missing are giant belt buckles and no minorities. There's been too much of Taylor on TV this year and that's not even including Redneck MTV, or as others call it: Country Music Television. Now I don't know if Taylor jumped the shark yet, but she's definitely wearing water skis and the motorboat is gassed up and ready to hit the ramp.
