Taylor Swift won her first Grammy at the 2010 Awards but the talk of the media and blogs following the ceremony wasn't on her award winning albums and songs. It was all about her less than stellar performance on stage for the Grammy show. Swift performed in duet with Stevie Nicks. Her performance drew criticism to the point her label came forward with an official statement saying she is one of the best emotional singers and song writers. The label contended that everyone can have an off night. http://www.starsareblind.com/2010/02/04/taylor-swifts-label-defends-awful-grammy-performance/

In spite of all the conversation regarding her Grammy performance, Swift still leads the way in Country music once again being nominated for the Top Video Award for CMT Music Video Awards in 2010
