The 9 Most Annoying Quotes From Taylor Swift's Vanity Fair Cover Story

8. The serial dater says she has only dated two guys since 2010.

8. The serial dater says she has only dated two guys since 2010.

THE QUOTE: “If you want some big revelation, since 2010 I have dated exactly two people. The fact that there are slide shows of a dozen guys that I either hugged on a red carpet or met for lunch or wrote a song with ... it’s just kind of ridiculous.”

WHY IT'S ANNOYING: Because it's false. If you take a look at our carefully-crafted timeline of Swift's age-inappropriate romances, she has dated at least FIVE guys since 2010: John Mayer, Cory Monteith, Jake Gyllenhaal, Conor Kennedy and Harry Styles.

7. She blasts the tabloids — but talks to them.

7. She blasts the tabloids — but talks to them.

THE QUOTE: “It’s why I have to avoid the tabloid part of our culture, because they turn you into a fictional character.”

WHY IT'S ANNOYING: If you don't want to be talked about in the tabloids, don't write thinly-veiled songs about your famous ex-boyfriends á la "Dear John" about John Mayer — and don't talk to the tabloids.

6. She thinks we're all sexist.

6. She thinks we

THE QUOTE: “For a female to write about her feelings, and then be portrayed as some clingy, insane, desperate girlfriend in need of making you marry her and have kids with her, I think that’s taking something that potentially should be celebrated — a woman writing about her feelings in a confessional way — that’s taking it and turning it and twisting it into something that is frankly a little sexist.”

WHY IT'S ANNOYING: This isn't your diary, it's your album you know is going to be heard and judged worldwide. Swift's 2012 album "Red" sold 3 million copies in just one month — which is great — unless you don't want millions of people reading your diary.

Part of what makes Swift so popular and relatable is the fact that she bares her emotions in her songs, but if she doesn't want to be labeled as a crazy, possessive girlfriend who just wants her man to put a ring on it, then she should probably ease off lyrics like these:

"And I just want to tell you 
It takes everything in me not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know that every time I don't
I almost do, I almost do"

"Standing by or waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know that
You belong with me
You belong with me"

"You lift my feet off the ground
You spin me around
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I am lost in your eyes
You make me crazier, crazier, crazier"

5. Her apartment sounds like the female equivalent of Neverland Ranch.

5. Her apartment sounds like the female equivalent of Neverland Ranch.

THE QUOTE: Swift's apartment as described by Vanity Fair contributing editor Nancy Jo Sales, who conducted the interview: "As she sits drinking lavender lemonade in her “Tim Burton–Alice in Wonderland–pirate ship–Peter Pan” apartment."

WHY IT'S ANNOYING: Seriously? This is what the inside of Taylor Swift's apartment looks like?

4. Is Taylor Swift the anonymous source on ... Taylor Swift?

4. Is Taylor Swift the anonymous source on ... Taylor Swift?

THE QUOTE: "Although one of Swift’s rules is that she doesn’t go into the personal details of any of her relationships, she authorized someone to discuss them with Sales."

WHY IT'S ANNOYING: Who is this "someone" and why wouldn't Swift want them on the record? Because, we agree with E! Online, that someone is totally Taylor Swift. For one, "someone" speaks just like Swift. Secondly, if it was actually a member of Swift's team or a close friend of hers, what is the harm in attributing that if it's already on the record?

We doubt Swift would feel comfortable or allow anyone else to speak about her romantic relationships other than herself. And unless the unnamed source is Swift's therapist, the person seems to have more emotional insight into the singer's romantic life than a friend would likely have.

3. Her source blames Harry Styles for the break up.

3. Her source blames Harry Styles for the break up.

THE QUOTE: The unnamed source on Swift's relationship with boy bander Harry Styles and why it ended: "When they were in London together he disappears one night and after that it was like he just didn’t want to keep going.”

WHY IT'S ANNOYING: We know this is false because we broke the story on how the couple broke up in Virgin Gorda and Styles ditched Swift as he darted off to nearby Necker Island to party in a hot tub with Richard Branson and a Bravo reality TV star.

Even Harry Styles’ rep, Benny Tarantini at Columbia Records, told VF that all of Swift’s source's claims are “undeniably false.”

2. She blames age as the reason her relationships haven't worked, but has said differently in the past.

2. She blames age as the reason her relationships haven

THE QUOTE: “It was like a pendulum for her, swinging back and forth,” the source says of Swift’s exes, with all of whom age has been a problem. Conor Kennedy, 17 at the time, was “just like a two-month thing,” the source continues, and Swift “says he was awesome.” The source says, “She dated Jake [Gyllenhaal] and John [Mayer] when she was really young and they were in their 30s, and she got really hurt. So it was like ‘That hurt — this won’t. But then it did.’”

WHY IT'S ANNOYING: If Swift's breakup from Conor Kennedy "hurt" so badly, then how was she able to move on barely two weeks later to boy bander Harry Styles?

Swift was singing a much different tune in December when she told Cosmopolitan magazine"I really don't have any rules about dating when it comes to height, age, career choice, anything like that. It doesn't matter ... It's really more about strength of character. When it comes to age, I've been all over the map."

1. She denies buying a house in Hyannis Port next to the Kennedy family — but she did.

1. She denies buying a house in Hyannis Port next to the Kennedy family — but she did.

THE QUOTE: “People say that about me, that I apparently buy houses near every boy I like — that’s a thing that I apparently do. If I like you I will apparently buy up the real-estate market just to freak you out so you leave me. One of these things I say to myself to calm myself down when I feel like it’s all too much ... If there’s a pregnancy rumor, people will find out it’s not true when you wind up not being pregnant, like nine months from now, and if there’s a house rumor, they’ll find out it’s not true when you are actively not ever spotted at that house.”

WHY IT'S ANNOYING: It's a lie. Swift did purchase the house, and even VF writer Nancy Sales calls her out on it.

As it stated in the VF article: "According to someone close to the situation, she had been viewing the property with her parents for over a year under the recommendation of Rory Kennedy. In November 2012, the Cape Cod Times reported the house had been sold to Ocean Drive LLC for $4.8 million. The company’s filing papers name a certain 'Jesse P. Schaudies' of 13management — Taylor Swift’s management company. Schaudies did not return calls made to 13management’s offices, but according to the source, the Hyannis Port house was recently resold."

Swift just made a $1 million profit on the sale of the Hyannis Port house.
