Taylor Swift

She's everywhere! I came across this picture and I thought you might enjoy it...

Swift Thinking = Nice Story

I read about this, last night and felt the need to pass it along to you.

 There's an 18 year old kid named Kevin McGuire who is a High School Senior, in New Jersey, battling Leukemia. His concern? No date for the prom! (18 year old girls can be distant at times)

So, Kevin's sister starts up a Facebook page for her brother. The page asks Taylor Swift to be Kevin's date for the prom! The page acquires thousands of followers! (See it here.)

She finds out about this and for one reason or another, cannot make it to the prom. So, Taylor Swift does one of the classiest things that I've ever heard of, in show business. She offers to make it up to Kevin by inviting him to be her date at the Academy of Country Music Awards on April 1.

Now, some of you may say that you are smelling a publicity stunt, here. The fact is, she could very easily have ignored the whole situation.
Right?

Wild Wild West

I don't watch award shows on TV. It's a publicity venue invented by a business to further promote itself and overpaid, spoiled, under talented people as they congratulate each other. Besides, there was a football game on NBC. I say it was a football game, Bears fans may disagree.

Getting back to the awards show, the VMA on MTV where Taylor Swift won an award for best female video. As she accepts her trophy, gavone #1 - Kanye West takes the mic from her and tells us that Beyonce's video was one of the best ever made. Swift did the best thing possible: nothing. That's right. The crowd booed West. See video, below:



Well......"This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Viacom." Translation: If Viacom can't make any money on it, you can't see it!

(I'm thinking, Taylor: knee to the crotch.)
Beyonce later won an award and invited Swift, on stage, to finish her remarks. Classy, but I still don't watch awards shows.
