Country Music sensation Taylor Swift has landed a new gig in fans' living rooms as she partners with the all-new play-it-yourself video game, Band Hero. The game was created by Guitar Hero and Activision Publishing Inc., and will feature songs such as "Love Story," "Picture to Burn," and "You Belong With Me."

Fans can interact with their favorite country star by playing as the virtual Swift, or alongside her as she performs the songs. Players can use any combination of guitar or drum controllers, along with vocals and have customized band creation options.

"Anything that encourages people to pick up an instrument and play, I'm fully behind. And, I'm really excited about Band Hero, because not only are fans getting to play my songs, but I'm actually in the game," said Swift.

Other acts on the November release of Band Hero include Lily Allen, Jackson 5, the All-American Rejects and No Doubt.
