CosmoGirl was said to be folding last month but they are going out with a big bang by having Taylor Swift as their cover girl for their December/January double issue. The 18-year old country crooning sweetheart, who recently picked up Favorite Female Country Artist at the 2008 American Music Awards, is featured on the cover and in an accompanying five-page spread, where she is in the lead position in the magazine’s annual ‘Born to Lead’ honors section. Taylor was photographed for her feature in New York City’s Central Park. Taylor will also be joining Jay Leno on The Tonight Show on December 5th for a performance a interview.
