Report: Taylor Swift Will Sing About (But Not With) Kanye West at VMA's

By Christine Fenno Posted Sep 12th 2010 10:07AM

Kanye interrupted Taylor.
Kanye apologized to Taylor.
Kanye tweeted about Taylor for hours.
Kanye even offered to give Taylor a "beautiful" song he wrote.

Now, Taylor Swift is having her say.

According to the Associated Press, the 20-year-old country star has secretly rehearsed a song she wrote -- and plans to sing at tonight's 2010 MTV Video Music Awards -- about the notorious night last year when Kanye West stormed the stage, grabbed her mic and told the 2009 VMA audience that a different artist deserved to win the Best Female Video award that had just been placed into Swift's hands.

The AP's source said that Swift's new song was written earlier this year, and will be released on her upcoming album in October, 'Speak Now.' E! News is confirming the report, saying that a Swift-West duet or any other kind of joint appearance is not going to happen, but that West -- who claims profound remorse about his behavior at last year's VMA's -- will be performing during the broadcast, too. His rehearsal was reportedly also kept under wraps.

The question now is: Will Taylor Swift take the high road in her new song, and be forgiving about what happened? Or will she smile sweetly while lashing out at the rapper? She's been known to call out former flames in her acclaimed lyrics (Swift was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame earlier this year), and we're betting she has an awful lot to get off her chest after a year of listening to Kanye West's side of the story!

Would be better if she would never sing again. Country music sucks in general anyways. Boring lyrics and this chick is ugly. Reminds me of a mouse or some other little rodent. And Kayne is an arrogant pig but looks like he did her a favor since nobody can get over this stupid thing.

TAYLOR SWIFT MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SING BUT ONE THING FOR SURE SHE IS NOT A BIG MOUTH BLACK RAPPER WITH NO SMARTS. COUNTRY MUSIC IS NOT WHAT IT USED TO BE BUT ITS BETTER THAN LISTENING TO A BUNCH OF JIBBER JABBER

SiastaEG, you are a moron. I've taken my daughter twice to see Taylor and although she's not the best singer, she is a great song writer and her on stage persona is unbelievable for a girl her age. How you can say she isn't cute, you'd better get your eyes checked...
I do agree with you the West is nothing more than a stree urcheon and we'd all be better off without him..

Jealous because she knows who her daddy is.

By Nico Toscani

She looks like a ferret to me and she can't sing worth a lick. Any adults who like her music should have their heads examined. Two years from now nobody will even remember she existed.

So, Taylor Swift is going to sing tonight, huh? Thanks for the warning. Now, I'll have a chance to lock up the dogs before she crucifies their ears with her off-key warbling.

By Steve-O

Amen to THAT, Dave!!!

By Emily

Dude! Let me tell you! Locking up the dogs doesn't stop up their ears dude!

Her voice has also been know to make babies cry and curdle milk.

By Alex

I was going to watch the MTV awards until I learned that no-talent Taylor Swift is going to perform. Write your little girl songs somewhere else, Taylor, and spare the adults all the stomach-turning angst.

By lynn

Speak for yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I DID speak for myself, lynn. Too bad for you most everyone else agrees, as you can see!

By Rod

"Most everyone else," Alex? I think her millions of fans, including adults, would say otherwise.

By Orbino

Taylor Swift. Yuck!

By Linda

What Taylor does is not "singing".
