Taylor Swift kicked off 2010 with a No. 2 single debut (“Today Was a Fairytale”), a hit movie (Valentine’s Day), and four Grammy wins, including Album of the Year. She then spent months headlining arena concerts and big-ticket awards shows. But there was one achievement — the Oct. 25 release of her third record, Speak Now — that topped everything. Buoyed by strong reviews and the radio-friendly hit “Mine,” Speak amassed a jaw-dropping 1,047,000 units in first-week sales, the highest tally for any release in five years. For all that, the confidently sweet 20-year-old who was only 2 months old when Entertainment Weekly launched in 1990 is now our youngest-ever Entertainer of the Year.

In EW’s interview, Swift talks about all the speculation surrounding the subjects of the songs on Speak Now, understood to include ex-boyfriends Taylor Lautner, Joe Jonas, and John Mayer. “Sometimes I would laugh because I would see it in print and it would say, ‘This song, which is written about her ex, so-and-so…’ And they would write about it as if it was fact. The fact is, I haven’t ever confirmed that any song is about any particular person. There’s something kind of freeing about that. As far as I’m concerned, it’s all still up in the air.” She also explains how she decided to perform her song “Innocent,” which sure seems to be about Kanye West, at this year’s MTV Video Music Awards. “I had decided that I didn’t want to perform on the show. Or even go. Then I woke up in the middle of the night and I realized that I had to, and that I wanted to perform that song.”

Jessica Simpson wants her second walk down the aisle to be a more simple affair. She and fiancee Eric Johnson have yet to set a date for their nuptials, but she doesn’t plan on having anything extravagant this time around.

People magazine reports:

“I personally have no idea. I have not set a date and I can’t even think about putting together like table settings and all that,” said Simpson, who attended the annual tree lighting with Johnson, mother Tina Simpson and friends. “We’re just going to enjoy the engagement and we’ll get married the moment we feel like it.”

David Hasselhoff wants you to know that his new reality show might be a little boring…

David and his daughters are set to appear in their new A&E show, The Hasselhoffs and in a new interview, he calls the show “too normal.”

He said, “It’s not as goofy as the Osmonds. It’s not as crazy as the Kardashians…it may be too normal.”

His daughter Taylor said, “I feel like there’s such a misconception of our family in the tabloids and everything.”

David added, “The girls will read something that’s really bad and they’re like, ‘Dad, you should sue them, that’s ridiculous…’ we can’t sue everybody. That’s one of the things you learn in this business. You gotta have a tough skin and move on. Taylor was at the University of Arizona and they’d say, ‘What’s your name?’ and she’d say Taylor Hasselhoff, and the whole student body would turn around.”

Will you be watching The Hasselhoffs?
