Words on the street are, Hollywood producers put the country crooner on the top of the list of young stars considered for the Girl of Steel role because she has the positive role model elements.

Never being involved in any scandals despite of her fame at such a young age could bring Taylor Swift a comic book hero role in the future. According to reports, the 20-year-old singer is being considered as the front-runner to play Supergirl due to her clean sheets as movie bosses are desperate to bring the Girl of Steel back to the big screen.

"Hollywood is short of female heroes and the time is right for a new Supergirl," an industry insider is quoted by Hollyscoop as saying. "She has all the right elements to be a positive role model to young girls. A number of young stars are being mentioned for the title role in a Supergirl movie and possible TV spin-off and Taylor is top of that list."

Should the rumor is proven true, the role as Kara Zor-El's alter ego will be Taylor's first leading part in a movie biz. It won't be her first trying out her acting skills, though. The "You Belong with Me" hitmaker has starred as Haley Jones in an episode of "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" titled "Turn, Turn, Turn". She will be seen in the big screen as Samantha Kenny when her romantic drama "Valentine's Day" hit U.S. theaters on February 12, 2010.

Taylor Swift has dominated the music industry this year. She brought home five kudos each from both Country Music Association Awards and American Music Awards. On December 2, she was revealed to be the recipient of eight 2010 Grammy Awards nominations. Her nods included Album of the Year, Song of the Year and Record of the Year.

She has recently topped PEOPLE magazine's 25 Most Intriguing People of 2009. She shares the honor with the likes of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie; Barack and Michelle Obama; and Rihanna among others. Talking about how she handle her fame during the interview with the mag, she said, "You can stay the same person, even if everything around you changes. I would like to think everybody out there isn't just waiting for me to trip and fall and stumble out of a club drunk."
