Plenty of Good News From Taylor Swift...

Country starlet Taylor Swift left one New York waiter singing for joy this week. According to TMZ.com, the singer left a more than sufficient tip while dining with friends this week. Reportedly, Swift went out to eat Monday night at Serendipity 3 restaurant in New York City with "House Bunny" actress Emma Stone. Swift ordered cheese ravioli with a soda and the bill at the end of the meal came out to 60-dollars. Swift left the server a 24-dollar tip, which comes out to 40-percent of the tab.

Stone was quoted earlier this week by MTV.com as saying that the whole Taylor Swift-Kanye West incident was "ridiculous." She's referring to the much talked about incident that took place at Sunday night's MTV Video Music Awards were rapper Kanye West interrupted Swift's acceptance speech.
