Taylor Swift Joins Cast Of ‘The Giver’: Morning Mix

:: Taylor Swift has landed a supporting role in the movie adaptation of Lois Lowry’s The Giver, which starts filming October 7. Co-stars include Meryl Streep and Jeff Bridges. [THR]

:: Speaking of Taylor — Lorde brought her up in a new cover story, to talk about how fans may look up to both of them for the wrong reasons: “Taylor Swift is so flawless, and so unattainable, and I don’t think it’s breeding anything good in young girls. ‘I’m never going to be like Taylor Swift, why can’t I be as pretty as Lorde?’ That’s fucking bullshit.” [Metro]

:: Eve presented MC Lyte with the I Am Hip-Hop Award at this year’s BET Hip-Hop Awards, saying, “She set the precedent for female freestylers.” The awards show airs on October 15. [AP]

:: Pusha T snarls in a stark video for his new song “King Push.” Think the My Name Is My Name cover art, come to life. [Pitchfork]

:: HAIM‘s newest fan? David Cameron, U.K. prime minister, thanks to arrangements made by BBC One’s The Andrew Marr Show. We get it — “The Wire” is terrific. [Stereogum]
