Nick Jonas sends regards to Taylor Swift

Sam — Wed, 13 Jan 2010 23:04:16 +0000

The Jonas Brother apparently sent out a big “hello” for Taylor Swift during a performance recently and congratulated her on all her wonderful accomplishments these past few months. Nick Jonas’ homage was in the form of a performance of the chorus from Taylor Swift’s hit song, “You belong with me”. Ironic that Nick Jonas’ brother, Joe Jonas is on Taylor Swift’s black list, so to speak. Could Nick Jonas actually be trying to make peace between his clan and the country singer… or does he have his own agenda for this little outburst? You have to wonder how Joe Jonas is going to fell about this neat homage his brother made.

Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner Ignore Each Other

Sam — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 22:21:50 +0000

Despite Taylor Swift and her mom giving ex-boyfriend Taylor Lautner a standing ovation when the young actor won the People’s Choice Award for favorite breakthrough actor, it appears that the two of them didn’t have contact with one another the entire night. Apparently, when the country singer entered the show a bit late during a commercial break, the audience erupted into cheers for her and Lautner didn’t even took up to see what was going on. Sources close to both say that there isn’t any tension between them though. So why ignore each other all night? I guess we’ll find out once Swift’s next album comes out.

Susan Boyle Still on Top

Sam — Sun, 03 Jan 2010 21:58:04 +0000

For the fifth consecutive week, Susan Boyle still finds herself on top of the charts. The sensational Scottish singer’s album ‘I Dreamed a Dream’ has sold another 510,000 copies and remains comfortably at number 1 on the Billboard Top 200. To date, the YouTube phenomenon is quickly approaching the three million mark. If Susan surpasses that, she will beat Taylor Swift with the best selling album of the year. And with no signs of slowing down, it’s a definite possibility. That’s definitely not bad for someone who was a virtual unknown just a year ago. Congratulations Susan! You are now a certified superstar!

Taylor Swift Lawsuit

Sam — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 19:20:26 +0000

Taylor Swift wants a piece of justice after a sting operation in Idaho revealed that a little sports bar was cheating her out of money. The country singer attached herself to a copyright infringement lawsuit spearheaded by BMI, the enforcer of music royalties. According to a lawyer connected to the case, BMI deployed an agent to go on a recon mission at The Sports Cellar bar some time last year, and the agent noticed that the bar was playing music, including Taylor’s, that they hadn’t paid for the right to play. Taylor and company are suing for unspecified damages. But compared to the millions she’s raking in, the Idaho thing is just change.

Billboard Makes Changes

Sam — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 16:58:03 +0000

After only including releases from the previous 18 months to calculate the best selling albums on the Billboard chart, Billboard will now be incorporating catalog releases due to the massive sales of both Michael Jackson and The Beatles. The sales chart on November 25 will be the first tally of the comprehensive chart. In digital music news, 4 artists have already broken Rihanna’s track sales record of 9.9 million digital songs in 2008, including the late King of Pop, Lady Gaga, the Black Eyed Peas and Taylor Swift. The biggest news is probably that the country singer is the only artist that outsold Michael’s album this year in sales. Congratulations!

Taylor Swift Covers InStyle

Sam — Sat, 14 Nov 2009 16:40:06 +0000

Taylor Swift is featured on the cover of the December 2009 issue of InStyle magazine which will hit stands on November 20th. WWD reports that something special is up with that particular cover of the country singer. They say “Readers who hold up the cover to their Web camera will see Swift spring to life surrounded by snowflakes in a 45-second video that ends when she signs her autograph across the screen. ‘We’re using this in an interesting way; it will bring the issue to life,’ noted managing editor Ariel Foxman.” That sounds like such a sweet treat for everyone indeed.

Taylor Swift is excited about Saturday Night Live

Sam — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 23:21:45 +0000

The singer recently came up and admitted that she is terribly excited about hosting the famous Saturday Night Live show. Taylor Swift wrote the following on her twitter: : “Starting the SNL process I kinda feel like I might have a heart attack or pass out in the pitch meeting. I’m that excited.” Taylor Swift probably has nothing to worry about… if she does pass out, Taylor Lautner will most likely be there to catch her. Or, to make matters more amusing, Kanye West will play the part of the human trampoline, after all, it is supposed to be a comedy show.

New Taylor Swift Video

Sam — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 20:20:28 +0000

Taylor Swift recently debuted a brand new music video for her song ‘Fifteen’. The song is the fourth single from her 2008 album ‘Fearless’. The video features her real life best friend Abigail Anderson. The cutie pie country singer talked about the song and the video saying “‘Fifteen’ talks about how my best friend, Abigail, got her heart broken when we were in ninth grade and singing about that absolutely gets me every time.” It’s a great song and a cute video. I can’t expect anything less from Taylor. She’s just great. I honestly can’t find something that I don’t like about her.

Kanye West Apologizes for a Third Time

Sam — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 19:12:28 +0000

After acting like a disrespectful douche bag towards Taylor Swift at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, Kanye West took to his blog twice to apologize to the country singer. The rapper then continued his tour of contrition during his appearance on Jay Leno’s new talk show on NBC last Monday. Kanye apologized once again and said that he needed to take some time off. I think he needs to check himself into rehab if he was chugging down a bottle of Hennessy like what he did at the ceremony. Hopefully, the time off that he was talking about wouldn’t affect his upcoming co-headlining tour with Lady Gaga.

Celebrities Talk Kanye West

Sam — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 23:03:40 +0000

The entire industry has rallied around Taylor Swift after the whole incident at Sunday night’s MTV VMAs as celebrities have taken to their respective Twitter accounts to show their outrage at Kanye West. Pink said “Kanye west is the biggest piece of shit on earth. Quote me.” Adam Lambert said “Kanye needs to chill. He freaks out every year. It ain’t that deep man.” Joel Madden said “WOW Taylor Swift’s first VMA and she didn’t even get to ENJOY it. Kanye You were just a bully on that one man.” Kellie Pickler said “Tator Tot, you handled yourself with Grace. Kanye, go grow some f-ing balls bitch! don’t mess w/my lil sis!!” Mind you, those are some of the nicer ones.

Kelly Clarkson Talks Kanye West

Sam — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 17:33:22 +0000

Kelly Clarkson had some fighting words for Kanye West after Sunday night’s fiasco with the rapper and Taylor Swift at the VMAs and the American Idol alum took to her blog to say them. Kelly said “…I’ve seen you do some pretty shitty things, but you just keep amazing me with your tactless, asshole ways. It’s absolutely fascinating how much I don’t like you. I like everyone. I even like my asshole ex that cheated on me over you…which is pretty odd since I don’t even personally know you… Is winning a moon man that much of a life goal?? You can have mine if it will shut you up. Is it that important, really??” And that’s just half of the letter that she wrote.
