Hello Taylor fans!

Coming up tonight, the 2012 Billboard Awards goes live from Las Vegas, Nevada at 8pm Eastern / 7pm Central on ABC. The Sparkly Dressed is nominated for two awards: Top Country Artist and Top Touring Artist. The Blonde With The Sparkly Guitar was last sighted in California, where she’s currently filming a music video.  And so far, no word on whether she’s attending or not. She’s not scheduled as a performer or a presenter. We’re hoping she’s in the audience.

Aside from that, you can also vote for Tay in the Fan Awards section that will be posted on the BCBG group Facebook page. That one looks more like a website poll, so I’m focusing on the main awards.

Don’t forget to VOTE for Taylor Swift for the 2012 CMT Music Awards! She is nominated for Video of the Year and Collaborative Video of the Year both along with the Civil Wars for Safe And Sound and Female Video of the Year for Ours. If it keeps saying you already voted, log off and clear you cache.

Tickets are on sale NOW for Tequila SunrisePaul Sidoti‘s tribute band to the Eagles, once again taking the stage at the House of Blues Cleveland on Friday, June 15. Get your tickets on LiveNation.com. You can also RSVP to the event on Facebook.
