She is NOT Country.

She is Pop. More bubblegum than Rascal Flatts.

WOW. That was so mean hearted. On the other hand, Beyonce is a class act x100 for what she did for Taylor by giving her a second chance at an acceptance speech, that was such an unbelievably classy gesture.

Taylor, "I sing Country music..."

So you're saying the girl doesn't know what she sings?

I think what he's trying to say is that Taylor Swift is to country music what Good Charlotte is to punk...a much more watered down version that has broader appeal to people who aren't aficionados of the genre. I would agree with that and I LOVE Taylor...although thanks to my dad I'm more of a Cory Morrow type of girl (even being from California haha).

The above is correct.

She's Nashville country. An embarrassment.

Singin' the Nashville blues, as Cory put it.

^Definitely.... I HATE hate hate country music but some of Taylor Swift's songs are super catchy and I like them a lot. It's more pop IMO.

I want to know how he expected Beyonce to react!

Like, what did you think Beyonce was going to do when you interrupted Taylor to say how great her video was? Stand up and clap? lol.

Taylor is definitely more pop than country. I love country and she's okay but honestly I'd much prefer more of a true country, not stuff that gets played on kiss fm.

Beyonce was truly a class act though, polar opposite of Kanye.

Well...nothing is shocking about Kanye anymore...every 3 to 6 months he finds ways to become more and more irrelevant.

He is like a big pouty kid who won't go away...his own walking talking parody.

In truth some of it probably has to do with his mom's passing.

I got bets that he is clinically depressed.

NO, he was an ass before his mom passed.

That was beyond tacky. Kanye can kiss his MTV career goodbye.

Yay for Beyonce! And yay for Taylor for coming back out.

I'm confused. Is that an apology?

South Park episode coming?

As if Kayne needed to pull another stunt for people to realize what an asshat he is...

I dislike Beyonce, but I have to give her respect for handling the situation in a classy manner and letting Taylor Swift have her moment.

Taylor is country, just a different kind. I mean, she is nominated for Entertainer of the Year (and three other awards) at the CMAs along with Kenny Chesney, Brad Paisley, and George Strait. If they're not country, I don't know who is.

I LOVE Taylor Swift. I have been a huge fan for a long time not only because of her music, but because I like her as a person. She seems to be truly appreciative of what has happened to her, without letting it go to her head. There is a video going around of her with her mom and friend watching the CMA nominations, and the raw emotion she expresses makes it clear how thankful she is.

It was nice to see that Beyonce allowed Taylor to give her acceptance speech during her win for Video of the Year. Truly classy and gracious.
