Taylor Swift Raps Nicki Minaj’s ‘Super Bass’

Ever wondered what Taylor Swift jams to when she's driving around town? Or taking a shower? Or hanging out with buddies?

This piece of information could have well remained a mystery to all of us--but, the good folks at Nashville radio station 107.5 The River managed to get it out of the superstar.

While visiting the station, Swift was invited to play "program director" and announce a song of her choice. Her selection? Not country! She chose "Super Bass" by Nicki Minaj.

"I really freak my friends out because I can recite every single lyric to the rap," Swift boasted to the DJ.

Of course, after having made that claim, she was taken to task to prove it!

Swift demurred, saying "No...that's for the car," but finally after some prodding busted out with a bit of Her Minajesty's lines.

The best part? She seemed actually a bit embarrassed after she did it. I have to say, it's totally adorable to see one of pop culture's most famous names, who's performed in front of gazillions of people a million times--and even rapped with T-Pain at the 2009 CMT Awards!--go all red in the face over a mere bit of rhymin'. Watch for yourselves!

It appears that Minaj returns Swift's love, as well. Last month, she told E! News that she likes Swift's music and would be happy to do a duet with her. "I don't listen to music based on genre," Minaj noted. "I listen to anything that's just beautiful music."

Now the only question remains: Which of the two women has better hair?
