Thanks to my friend on Twitter, @mansypansy24, for breaking the news to me 🙂
The Fearless One’s latest single, Today Was A Fairytale, is now available on iTunes. I also need to print a correction here, the Valentine’s Day movie opens on February 12, not the 14th. This according to the official website.

I was waiting for you to post this. =) Thank you. I’m definitely watching the event. So glad Tay decided to join. ❤
Am I able to see it if I live in Spain?
Yes, it will even be transmitted through YouTube but all major networks are covering it.
