So you've probably heard the rumor that there's no love lost between Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift and that the two made a specific request to the people in charge of the Grammy Awards to keep them away from each other.
Spoil sports.
After the rumor came to light, Carrie Underwood went on record and said that if there's a fight between she and Taylor she's not aware of it. You can see video of her denying the reports here. The thing is, did anyone really expect Carrie to confirm the rumor even if it was true? Please, she's much more polite than that. I don't know if there's really a feud going on between the two power houses, but if a picture is worth a 1000 words then this picture has a heckuva lot to say.
A reader sent me this screen shot that she found over on the Examiner website.
It's pretty interesting because the screen grab reportedly shows the moments after Carrie finished singing at the Grammys when everyone gave her (and her light up dress) a standing ovation.
Well everyone except Taylor Swift.
The picture shows Taylor sitting firmly (but at least politely clapping) while everyone else is on their feet.
This really wouldn't be a big deal to me if the media hadn't gone wacko over the fact that Chris Brown did the same thing when Frank Ocean won his Grammy Award that evening.
Oh sure, Taylor hasn't beat up her girlfriend in the past and deserve everyone's scorn like Chris does, but it's still the exact same disrespect paid to another artist. Media double standard much?
You can watch Carrie's performance below or here.

Taylor has to get over herself and her jealousy of Carrie. Her music is mostly appealing to 6 to 15 year olds and is juvenile in nature. I knew it wouldn't take long for her to show her true colors. Kind of pitiful.

This is true. I just went back and watched the end again & Swift is most definitely sitting while everyone around her is standing. If you DVR'd it, she sits above the CBS logo in the bottom right hand of the screen.
Just another reason, in the list of many, of why I can't stand Swift.

Taylor is becoming a very arrogant, self-entitled egomaniac. Carrie had the class to debunk the feud rumors and try to move on from whatever the false rumors are.
Taylor FEEDS off publicity and drama. She has built a career making herself a Permanent Victim, real or in her head.
I almost feel sorry for Kanye as he was right all along about her. He was rude, but he was right. She milked that for over a year, loving the pity votes, attention, and press.
Now I think Taylor is trying to deflect her negative attention from all her serial dating and breakups to Carrie-- an innocent victim. Poor Carrie.
Taylor and her minions are the only ones who did not stand for Carrie. That was childish and rude. Clearly Taylor was trying to make some sort of statement, yet she only made herself look like a petty child.
I bet she was mad that she (Taylor) did not get a standing o for her pitchy vocals in the opening act.
