Celebrity 25 Things Taylor Should Do Now That She s 25 Because, you know, Swift hasn t accomplished nearly enough already By Alison Schwartz and Jocelyn Vena Published on December 12, 2014 05:00 PM Share Tweet Pin Email Trending Videos 01 of 25 WEAR SOME WINGS David Fisher/Rex USA She's stomped the Victoria’s Secret runway twice as a performer, she’s best friends with Karlie Kloss and she’s been wearing sexier looks lately. So we say, come next December, she should hit the catwalk not as a singer, but as an Angel. 02 of 25 PUBLISH A COOKBOOK Courtesy Taylor Swift Her Instagram is peppered with shots of dishes she's cooked or baked alongside people like Lorde and chef Ina Garten. 1989 of My Favorite Recipes has a nice ring to it, dontcha think? 03 of 25 TRY TEACHING Rodrigo Reyes Marin/Startraks If Carrie Bradshaw can offer a Learning Annex class on how to date, Taylor can put on her professor hat, too. Possible course offerings: how to get revenge on an ex (required watching is the "Blank Space" video), juggling multiple besties, Instagramming cats and an advanced session on shaking off haters. 04 of 25 INVENT A NEW FILTER Courtesy Taylor Swift It’ll be called Swizzle and make every photo it’s applied to look like it’s straight outta 1989. 05 of 25 RETURN TO HER COUNTRY ROOTS AdMedia/Splash News Online We love pop princess Taylor, but a part of us longs for the guitar-slinging Southern girl we first fell in love with. We’d suggest doing a re-release of 1989, but with guitars, mandolins and plenty of twang. 06 of 25 DESIGN A LINE OF CROP TOPS Alo Ceballos/GC Or just eBay off all the ones she has in her closet. 07 of 25 GUEST STAR ON GIRLS Courtesy Taylor Swift Swift and Lena Dunham are friends so we’d like to see art imitate life – perhaps the singer plays her roommate at grad school in Iowa. 08 of 25 REPRESENT MORE CITIES Dimitrios Kambouris/LP5/Getty The Global Welcome Ambassador of N.Y.C. has so much to offer that she should really consider adding other metropolises (L.A., Chicago, Atlanta, Miami, Nashville) to her ambassadorship. 09 of 25 RIDE THE SUBWAY LIKE A TRUE NEW YORKER James Devaney/Wireimage And as ambassador of N.Y.C., she should really experience the city like locals do: by commuting in a urine-scented train car that’s supposed to be running local, but, oh crap, is actually making express stops. 10 of 25 COLLABORATE WITH AN EX David Krieger/Bauer-Griffin/GC Images Swift has a talent for turning heartbreak into hit singles, and we can only imagine the top-40 potential that a collaboration would bring. Styles amp Swift: The Acoustic Album – just riffing here. 11 of 25 ADOPT ANOTHER CAT Courtesy Taylor Swift Cat ladies have found the perfect (sorry, purr-fect) spokeswoman in Swift, who is mom to felines Meredith Grey and Olivia Benson. Somewhere out there, a little kitty is just waiting to find its forever home and be named Lisa Vanderpump. 12 of 25 AND MAYBE A DOG, TOO Getty(2) Just don't consult Meredith and Olivia first, okay, Tay? 13 of 25 START AN ADVICE COLUMN Jeff Vespa/Getty She already has her first installment written. 14 of 25 GET ON TINDER Anthony Harvey/Getty We love that Swift is happily single and way too busy befriending all of our other female idols to worry about boys. But, you know, she's got a blank space, baby, and she’ll swipe right on your name. 15 of 25 ROOMIE UP WITH SELENA Kevin Mazur/AMA2014/Wireimage Swift's discussed her plans to convince best friend Gomez to move to N.Y.C., so the logical next step is a joint apartment and a house Instagram account documenting their24/7 slumber party. 16 of 25 RELEASE A BEST HITS ALBUM Sam Hussein/TAS/Getty It's about time, no? 17 of 25 OPEN A BAKERY Courtesy Taylor Swift If we can't hang out in Swift's kitchen to take selfies with freshly baked cookies, we'd at least like to be able to purchase said cookies and take selfies in the privacy of our own homes. 18 of 25 POST MORE INSTAGRAMS OF HER HOT BROTHER Courtesy Taylor Swift The world needs more Austin Swift. 19 of 25 TRY OUT A NEW SIGNATURE LIP SHADE Bryan Steffy/Getty We get it, red is her thing. But if the woman can go from from country to pop, she can transition to hot pink as well. 20 of 25 LAUNCH A LINE OF CAT ONESIES Courtesy Taylor Swift She’s got a passion for people-sized onesies and frankly onesies for cats is an untapped market with serious growth potential. Olivia and Meredith would be models, natch. 21 of 25 HOST A REALLY MAJOR NEW YEAR'S PARTY Courtesy Taylor Swift If our most recent texts were from Emma Stone, Lorde and Karlie Kloss, we'd do the same. 22 of 25 BRING BACK THE COUNTRY HAIR Larry Busacca/Wireimage She can party like it's 1989 so returning to her pre-pop curls isn't that much of a stretch, no? Maybe just for one #tbt picture? Or Halloween? Please? 23 of 25 PULL A KANYE AT THE GRAMMYS Jason DeCrow/AP By all accounts, West was totally happy for Swift and definitely going to let her finish – still, that didn't stop him from interrupting her 2009 MTV Video Music Awards acceptance speech. Swift did what she does best (wrote a song about it!), but we'd like to see her get the very last laugh in the form of a good-natured mid-Grammys stage crash. Sorry in advance, Sam Smith. 24 of 25 NAB ANOTHER GRAMMY Fred Lee/ABC/Getty Or, you know, three of ‘em. 25 of 25 CONTINUE TO SHAKE IT OFF Shake off players. Shake off haters. And most importantly, shake off a quarter-life crisis that’s struck many a 25-year-olds before you.
