Taylor Swift skipped the Grammys because they couldn’t guarantee she’d win

[BUtterfield 8 41,411]

Multiple sources have confirmed to Page Six that Swift’s team talked to show bigwigs a few days before the live event and said that Swift would only attend and perform if she was to win a big Grammy. But Swift’s team was told the winners are not known to those planning the show, and they would not bend the rules for her.

“[Her team] called and wanted to be assured that she would win the Grammy. And while it wasn’t an explicit demand, they certainly were fishing to find out if Taylor was a winner. It was understood in the conversation that if she’s not winning, she’s not coming to the Grammys,” one insider said.

Another music insider said, “It’s widely known in the industry that [Swift’s team] called to find out if she was getting a Grammy, they wouldn’t tell her, so she didn’t go. It’s not uncommon [for an artist] to want to know. And everyone knows Taylor loves to win, win, win.”

Yet a spokesperson for Swift said, “I am on the record: These statements by anonymous, unidentified ‘sources’ are absolutely 100 percent false and laughable. She just didn’t go to the Grammys. You guys need to calm down.”

“One of her representatives called and said, specifically, that she wanted to do the show for me. And then it was not confirmed … I’m really not at liberty to go into why ultimately she did not confirm … but I understood her reasoning, let’s just say that,” he said.

This is really all that matters here, anonymous sources can say whatever they want. They are anonymous. If they really made those calls then why make it anonymous? This is no different from a Twitter insider claiming Stupid Love's release date is *insert date*

She wanted to do the show and ultimately called it off for an "understandable reason" sounds like it had to do with the whole grammy controversy.

PageSix that says it all you didn't have to defend

She makes it very clear how strongly she feels about sexual assault in her documentary. I'm guessing it's related to that

Even if it was true, so? It's not bad, and certainly not a big deal so why the drama about it
