Taylor Swift's career may be on a constant rise, but this celeb has other goals in mind, too.

While speaking to ITV News recently as she prepares for the first date of her tour in the United Kingdom, the 25-year-old was asked where she sees herself in 10 years. And with her status and power (hey, Apple!), she could really be doing anything, but Swift nails it down to one thing—family.

Taylor tells ITV News that she hopes to have a family by then, but also admits she does worry about protecting her children due to her fame. Swift also said that she's long admired Angelina Jolie, who is definitley one who knows what it's like to raise a large brood under the spotlight.

But her admiration stems more for Angelina's ability to live "her life not just for the purpose of making money or coming up with the most lucrative business deals," but for what she can give back (although, we're sure Jolie could share some motherhood tips with Tay when the time comes).

Swift had a slightly different idea in her mind when it came to her future and kids while talking to InStyle last year.

"I don't know if I'll have kids," she told the magazine at the time. "It's impossible not to picture certain scenarios and how you would try to convince them that they have a normal life when, inevitably, there will be strange men pointing giant cameras at them from the time they are babies."

She also said in March that she'll probably still be single by the time she's 30. "Let's be honest. No one's going to sign up for this and everything that goes with it. ‘Hi, nice to meet you, want a date? Do you love camera flashes? I hope you do," Swift told The Telegraph.

Taylor added, "I don't know what's going to happen if I'm ever content in a relationship—no idea how that's going to work. I don' t even know if that's possible with the life I have."

And then, Calvin Harris came along.
