Golden Globes 2014

Taylor was invited to the Golden Globes this year because she was nominated for best original song in a motion picture for "Sweeter Than Fiction" from the upcoming One Chance movie.

This was an especially big honor because the movie hasn't even been released yet.

Anyways back to Tay, she looked incredible as usual. Her hair looked very Speak Now era with the curls and it being pinned back. Her makeup was flawless and her dress was beautiful. She wore a strapless red gown with black edges and her jewelry was also something to talk about. One of her rings looked very much like a rose (coincidence? we aren't so sure).

And just who accompanied Taylor to such a prestigious event? Why Austin of course! They both looked like they enjoyed themselves.

When Taylor was being interviewed on the red carpet by Ryan Seacrest, an oblivious Jennifer Lawerence climbed up the stairs and made a jokingly terrifying face at Taylor (assuming the camera had a closer pan on Tay and that they weren't streaming live). Ryan invited Jennifer to join the interview and the girls hugged and shared with the world one of the GREATEST and best kept secrets of all time: they're good friends. Jen joked about how she was going to push Tay down the stairs and she revealed how proud she was when she watched Tay get her Pinnacle Award. Jen even sent Taylor a text that Tay referred to as "the most heart warming text" she's ever gotten. Ryan asked if Jen had been to any of Taylor's shows and she answered no, saying Tay never invited her. Taylor quickly dismissed that saying she invited her all the time and Jen laughed acknowledging she hadn't been to a concert because she was never in town. In one interview, 2 fandoms were completely slain and eternally joined. Swifties and JLaw fans. What a perfect pairing.

Taylor did not win the Golden Globe (it went to Bono), but she didn't seem too upset and other than Tina Fey's subtle dig at her during the show, everything seemed to go off without a hitch. Taylor was seen talking with bestie Sarah Hyland and her friend Jennifer Lawrence.

Tay attended the after party with Sarah, Hailee Steinfeld, Odeya Rush, and Jaime King. The girls all looked like they were having an amazing time. Taylor changed out of her gown into a mesh black mini dress that looked fantastic on her. She also met and hung out with other celebrities like Jared Leto.
