Hello Taylor Nation!

Here at the Swift Agency, still one guy who knows Swifties and Taylorgeeks don’t need a reminder, would like to remind you that the Sparkly Dressed has three Grammy nominations: Best Country Album for Speak Now, Best Country Song for “Mean” and Best Country Solo Performance for “Mean”. She is also scheduled to perform.

Also performing at the 54th Grammy Awards will be The Band Perry and Blake Shelton who join five-time Grammy award winner Glen Campbell for a special performance. You can read the original story at Grammy.com. The Band Perry is nominated for Best New Artist.

They join Jason Aldean and Kelly Clarkson, Coldplay and Rihanna, Foo Fighters, Bruno Mars, Paul McCartney, Nicki Minaj, and Taylor Swift who were already announced to perform at the awards ceremony. LL Cool J will do the host duties at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on February 12.

Here is one of the promos with the Queen of Sparks and LL Cool J.

There’s others but this is the only one from CBS that doesn’t have a regional lock. I hate those things.

Oh, and you need to drop everything now and read this fairytale-come-true-Swifty-style story about Meeting Taylor Swift at Portobello Road. It is amazing

Here at the Swift Agency, one guy who knows he will get asked about this, don’t think they’re dating. Because they are not? Yes, they were seen out to dinner once. No, that is not dating. Before someone says that they’re pretending just for the movie, I would like to say they must be very bad at pretending because they haven’t even been seen together since then. Because! Rumor control, how I hate thee.
