If You Steal From Taylor Swift You Will Pay

Missy — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 12:19:16 +0000

Love it! A small town sports bar called Boomer’s Sports Cellar and Club in Idaho is in deep trouble for playing tunes without proper music licensing. Country phenom Taylor Swift’s copyrights have been violated, but no worries. The powers that be are all over the matter and will see that justice is served in the matter.

BMI, the company that enforces music royalties, performed a “sting” operation on the bar to see if things were on the up-and-up…and they weren’t. A copyright lawsuit has been filed and Swift’s name is included.

It’s worse than you thought, they were not only playing CMA Entertainer of the Year winner’s music, they were using her songs for KARAOKE! Clearly, they don’t know that Swift dates a werewolf.

We can’t help but wonder if Kanye West owns any establishments in Lewiston, Idaho. After all, he has already demonstrated that he doesn’t have a problem stealing her thunder.

CMA Entertainer of the Year 2009 Taylor Swift (PHOTOS, VIDEO)

Meg — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 11:10:47 +0000

The 43rd Annual CMA Awards 2009 brought a host of surprises, including an awards sweep by 19-year-old country sweetheart Taylor Swift. She won Music Video of the Year for Love Story, Album of the Year for Fearless, Female Entertainer of the Year and the top award of the evening, CMA Entertainer of the Year.

When she took the stage to accept the award for Album of the Year she said, “This album is my diary.” The comment goes hand in hand with an observation she made last year, suggesting that if she has spent more than 15 minutes with someone, they will likely end up in one of her songs.

As she accept the CMA Entertainer of the Year award, she ended by saying, “I want to thank everyone here tonight for not running up on stage during my speech.” The reference to the Kanye West VMA incident was well received by the audience.

Other top CMA winners included Single of the Year I Run To You Lady Antebellum, Song of the Year In Color Jamey Johnson, Vocal Group of the Year Lady Antebellum, New Artist of the Year Darius Rucker, Vocal Duo of the Year Sugarland, Male Vocalist of the year Brad Paisley, Musical Event of the Year Brad Paisley and Keith Urban, and Musician of the Year Mac Macanally.

Show co-host Carrie Underwood came up winless this year.

Kanye West Apology to Taylor Swift

Missy — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 13:19:16 +0000

So here it is, the apology we all know that Kanye West was forced to make after the outrageous stunt he pulled last night at the VMA’s. West interrupted Taylor Swift as she was giving her acceptance speech for winning the Best Female Video award.

“I’M SOOOOO SORRY TO TAYLOR SWIFT AND HER FANS AND HER MOM. I SPOKE TO HER MOTHER RIGHT AFTER AND SHE SAID THE SAME THING MY MOTHER WOULD HAVE SAID. SHE IS VERY TALENTED! I LIKE THE LYRICS ABOUT BEING A CHEERLEADER AND SHE’S IN THE BLEACHERS!………….I’M IN THE WRONG FOR GOING ON STAGE AND TAKING AWAY FROM HER MOMENT!……………BEYONCE’S VIDEO WAS THE BEST OF THIS DECADE!!!!

I RALLY FEEL BAD FOR TAYLOR AND I’M SINCERELY SORRY!!! MUCH RESPECT!!!!!”

Here is the link to Kanye’s website. At the moment it says that the site is down due to upgrades…or maybe his management is rewriting his apology letter? The most likely scenario is that people have overloaded the site to see what he has to say for himself this morning.

Pink ‘tweeted’ about the situation on her Twitter page, “Beyonce is a classy lady. I feel for her, too. It’s not her fault at all, and her and Taylor did their thing. And douche bag got kicked out. HA!”

Switching it up and portraying a couple of characters in the video, you will see Taylor with her natural blonde locks and then she goes brunette in order to play the role of the popular cheerleader.

Also starring in the video with Swift is young heartthrob Lucas Till. You may have seen him in the new teen flick Hannah Montana: The Movie. It works out well for Taylor – since she is playing both girls, she’s bound to end up with Till either way. Smart girl!

Taylor Swift White Horse Lyrics

Meg — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 10:58:00 +0000

When singer Taylor Swift found out that her new single White Horse would be featured on the first episode of ABC season five drama Grey’s Anatomy, she did what most teenagers would do. She jumped up and down screaming, sobbing hysterically and hugging strangers in a hotel lobby. Really.

The musical phenom loves the show and admits that her obsession can be embarrassing. She was not able to enjoy last night’s season premiere in real time because of a concert commitment in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Taylor’s album Fearless is scheduled to drop on November 11, 2008.

Checkout the video with lyrics from last nights Grey’s Anatomy below.
