Taylor Swift Goes Glam in CoverGirl NatureLuxe Commercial

Taylor Swift
may know how to work a Grammy stage, but her new commercial debut as the latest CoverGirl shows she can rock out as a glamour girl, too.

Outfitted in a stunning gold gown and fiery red lip, the 21-year-old country sensation vogues for the camera while preaching the values of "light as air" makeup.

From the looks of it, Swift is also flaunting a stroke of her favorite black liquid liner, though we're guessing a pro applied it with only the best selection to choose from this time -- as the songstress told us in an interview last month that she'll resort to extreme measures if caught without her liner.

"When I was on a plane to Japan like two years ago...and I had no makeup with me, I went to the bathroom and used a Sharpie! I do not recommend drawing eyeliner on with a Sharpie," said Swift.

As for red lips, Swift dished to Styleist she always tissues over the lipstick, and then sets with a touch of powder for a velvet-matte finish. She credits the trick as one of the best she has learned from working with celebrity makeup artists since enjoying a generous dose of fame herself.

Yet, Swift wasn't always so adept with a makeup brush, though her mother turned out to be one of her strongest -- and most tactful-- supporters when the youngster tried to master makeup in high school.

"I was just terrible at it, and I'd come downstairs with black eye shadow all over my eyelid, and she'd be like, 'Honey, you might want to clean that up.' She was never like, 'Turn around, take it off!' She has always been really, really cool about -- we'll call it artistic expression," said Swift with a smile.

And we're willing to bet that commercial is "artistic expression" that has netted Swift some pretty pennies to boot.

As for the CoverGirl NatureLuxe line that Taylor promotes in the spot, you can find out the sheer and soft details here.

You are absolutely correct, she is ugly. And never mind the spelling police, there're morons. Enough of this Swift chick. Her music isn't remotely good, and no one outside the world of rednecks wants to hear her or see her squinty eyes and, mouse face. And for anyone to say she's hot is really ridiculous. Jessica Alba is "hot", Taylor Swift is not. Swift is the 3 in the morning chick when you are drug and, you have struck out that night and, she's the only one left.

There are definitely more beautiful and enhanced women in the world, but not any who reach out to millions of young girls' most worthy feelings and reinforce their best qualities and ambitions. Taylor is the only songwriter going who borders on genius, and if you haven't listened to her albums and seen her live, you can't possibly speak about her in an intelligent manner. She's worth a million Lady Gag-Gags and Bouncy Flouncys bumping their booties in grotesque outfits, and she'll be around long after they're gone, so get used to her.

What IS the media's fasination with this girl? She's an okay song writer but that's where it ends. It's not enough that her singing is horrid, but now she's a fashion plate? Please,,,, and why is that her eyes always look as if she just woke up; must be the sharpie..

CMG Obviously you have not heard all of her songs. Yes many have the same beat, but name an artist that you can't say the same thing about.
She has been a reasonably good roll model for the youig girls. Try compareing her to Britney, and what do you get.

Obviously you have never heard of REBA!!!!!!! Reba can sing anything-LITERALLY! from "Is There Life Out There?", to "Fancy", and let's not forget the ultimate viral video.........."If I Were A Boy". Reba's melodies are not the same, and she has proven that after 35 years. Will this girl be around that long? Remember-tweens grow up, and the "it girls" 15 minutes of fame does die........it's what the industry does to girls (and guys) like this. they are in one moment- and next your looking for the next young thing. I bet there's already someone waiting in the wings already about to take this girl's spot. Like I said..........let's see if there's a lasting legacy like a legend of Reba's stature- and she is STILL getting #1 hits.

While I agree that Britney has a lot of issues to resolve in her life, at least she has curves like a woman. Taylor Swift is not a good role model. She is too skinny, almost anorexic-looking. A lot of young girls can't achieve that look unless they diet themselves into starvation. How does that make her "better looking" than Britney?

Her eyes "shouldn't" be squinty? I can see the media has successfully brainwashed you into believing what a woman should and should not look like.

They can take just about anyone off the street and make them beautiful with all that makeup. Without the makeup, most of the celebrities are just plain homely. A pretty girl is one with the natural look.
