Taylor Swift is gorgeous in green on the cover of InStyle magazine‘s November 2013 issue, which hits newsstands on October 18th!

The 23-year-old entertainer talked about what she looks for in a guy, on whether or not she’s a jealous person, and the major difference between performing at a concert vs. an awards show. Check it:

On what she looks for in a man: “My friends tease me about the fact that if someone seems bad or shady or like they have a secret, I find them incredibly interesting. That’s just a phase I’ve been in lately. I don’t think this should be how I proceed in life. It’s important to be self-aware about these things because you don’t want to end up with that guy.”

On jealousy: “I feel jealousy, but I’ve been trying to channel it into mutual admiration and inspiration. If someone has a really great boyfriend or career, I think, it’s cool that happens. Now I have proof it can happen. Maybe that’s out there for me someday. ”

On the difference between performing in a concert versus on an awards show: “If you slip and fall at your concert, fans are going to laugh with you. They’ll put it on YouTube – but it’s going to be like a joke we’re all in on. They aren’t hoping I’ll fall. But at an awards show you know there are at least a few people thinking, Trip, trip, trip!”
