Country Music's biggest teenage breakout star, Taylor Swift, is gracing the March cover of Teen Vogue and discussing how she went from a Pennsylvania hometown girl to the jewel of Nashville's eye.A bit typical teenage life, a bit "How Do You Like Me Now?," Swift tells the teen rag about her un-acceptance from her junior high school classmates and what it was like to go home again, after her success."I played a hometown show about a year into my career, and they showed up, wearing my T-shirts and asking me to sign their CDs. It was bittersweet, because it made me realize that they didn't remember being mean to me and that I needed to forget about it, too."And forget she should, as Swift continues her reign over the pop album charts, as her release, Fearless, remains No. 1 on the Billboard chart for the eighth week, with 63,000 total copies sold.It appears Swift has "made it," but as she tells Teen Vogue, the thought doesn't enter her mind. "Oh, no, I'm never going to have that moment," Swift said. "All of this is amazing, but it doesn't guarantee anything about the future. I still haven't made it to where I want to be."For more, check out the Teen Vogue story here.
