When Lady Gaga recently revealed she loves singing Taylor Swift's hit "You Belong with Me" at the top of her lungs, no one was more surprised – or excited – than the country singer herself.
"That absolutely made my day when I read that because I'm a huge fan of hers," Swift tells CMT Insider in an interview airing Saturday at 1:30 ET.
Gaga, 24, who said in an interview that she starts singing along to Swift's song "so loudly" when she hears it on the radio that she's "so embarrassed," had also praised the country star, 20, for being "a great songwriter."
"It's a great song!" Gaga told Show Studio. "I think it's just because it's very whimsical in a way that I'm not necessarily whimsical every day."
And Swift returns the feelings: "I'm a huge fan of hers and [hearing] that really, really made me smile," she says. "I appreciated that."
Although they are in completely different genres, Swift says she admires Gaga for her daring style and music. "I remember the first time I ever saw [Lady Gaga] on [MTV's] TRL," recalls Swift. "She had like a leotard on and I just thought to myself, that's so daring. Her music must be daring like that and [I] went home and I downloaded 'Just Dance.' "

According to sources, Selena is not mad at Taylor and understands her decision to avoid her parties and her on-again boyfriend. Selena and Taylor have already made plans to celebrate together in the coming weeks.
If YOU were Selena would you be upset that Taylor didn’t come to any of your parties because of Justin?
She said "It's very different in what it's about, but it's no different in the fact that it has its own name" and theme. But Taylor was quick to say that the theme "is a secret!"
Our favorite country cutie also said that she "would love to [work with Nicki Minaj] at some point." At the moment, they aren't doing anything, but let's hope Nicki takes her up on her offer! It just might happen - Nicki has collaborated with other artists, and she sang "Super Bass" with Taylor on stage at one of Tay's concerts.
Do you think Taylor's country style and Nicki's rap music would make for a good collaboration?
Swift has just donated $500,000 to the city’s flood relief.
“Being at home during the storm, I honestly could not believe what was happening to the city and the people I love so dearly,” Swift said in an e-mail to the Associated Press.
“Nashville is my home, and the reason why I get to do what I love. I have always been proud to be a Nashvillian, but especially now, seeing the love that runs through this city when there are people in crisis.”
Restoring areas devastated by the flood will cost more than $1 billion.
ok what a joke! I was on youtube hearing one of her songs and it was so bad I had to hear a Taylor Swift song to make my ears feel better.
I watched a video that said, "Is Taylor Swift in trouble" and it talked about how Jennette is a threat to Taylor. and that made me laugh!
This girl has nothing on Taylor
Taylor is a double platnum selling artist and this Jennette is on a nikolodoen show
Country music is really great to it's artist so I believe Jennette will get a big fan base. But I honestly don't think she is a threat to Taylor.
