Check out more photos, a funny story from TayMom's manager and behind the scenes info from Buzznet's day with Taylor here!

Since then, the rocker has been keeping busy. Even though she isn't joining this year's Warped Tour, Taylor has been touring the world, sharing her music and shocking stage antics.
