Taylor Swift Tells Oprah She Accepts Kayne's Apology

On today's episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show, Taylor Swift said she has accepted Kanye West's apology for interrupting her acceptance speech at the MTV Video Music Awards.

I'm puzzled as to why people think this is news because Swift already said--nearly four weeks ago, mind you--that she accepted his apology.  Perhaps apologies don't count unless you publicly accept them on Oprah?

Regardless, Swift elaborated on why she was so willing to forgive:

"I feel like being raised by two parents who basically brought me up with the idea that the world didn't owe me anything really helped...My whole life, I just loved music and I'd see these people on big stages, and I didn't think I could actually do that."

Statements like this only make me wonder how much longer Taylor will remain this innocent and pure--and how long it'll be before she's back on Oprah's couch talking about her drug addiction and wild sex life.  Doesn't everyone end up pulling a Britney nowadays, anyway?  (Hello, Lindsay Lohan!)
