AceShowbiz - Taylor Swift responds to one buzzing question from fans regarding Grammy Awards as the Music's Biggest Night is fast approaching. She announces that she will present an award, but she will not be singing. She cites her busy days ahead of new tour as the reason why she won't take the stage for a performance.
"A lot of you have been asking about the Grammys this week and I just wanted to give you an update. I'm really excited to be nominated for 3 Grammys this year and even more excited that I'll be there having a dance party/rage fest in the audience. I will also be presenting the award for Best New Artist," she explained on her Tumblr blog.
"Since my whole life is wrapped up and entangled in the planning of The 1989 World Tour right now, I'm not going to be performing on the Grammys this year. I need this time to focus only on the tour," she continued. "I hope I'll see you out there at one of the stadiums this summer having a rage fest of your own!"
The 57th annual Grammy Awards will be held February 8 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. Madonna, Sam Smith, Usher, Ed Sheeran, Lady GaGa, Pharrell Williams, Rihanna, Kanye West, and Paul McCartney are among the musical guests.
