Taylor Swift isn’t looking for love

The 20-year-old singer claims she is too busy working to "wallow" in her single status and thinks she will find romance when she least expects it.

She said: "There's a lot to distract me from dating. I don't really sit around and wallow in being alone. It's in my comfort zone, being single.

"I feel that a lot happens to you when you're not looking for it, so I'm not actively looking. I don't have a problem with being single."

Taylor – who previously dated Jonas Brothers star Joe Jonas - claims her relaxed attitude to romance comes from observing her friends and their anxieties over their relationships.

She explained: "All my friends in high school would always go from boyfriend to boyfriend and they were never alone because they hated being alone. I never want to be that way."

The 'Love Story' singer hopes her celebrity status doesn't scare away potential suitors.

She told Top of the Pops magazine: "I don't know how many are scared off. I try to be an approachable person and I don't have a bunch of bodyguards or a big entourage. I'm just a normal person."
