The CMA Awards aired last week, and though Taylor was nominated for Female Vocalist of the Year, she unfortunately did not win. We discuss the CMA's interesting choice to bring in Megan Trainor and Ariana Grande to perform, in what appeared to be an attempt to fill Taylor's absence. If you watched the award show, tweet us your thoughts!Blank Space Discussion: Because 1989 as a whole is so amazing, the only way we could possibly attempt to review it is by tackling one song per episode. We decided to start with Blank Space this week since it's Taylor's latest single. Funny story, we recorded this on Sunday 11/9 and predicted on the episode that Taylor would be dropping the music video this week. The next morning, she did! So tune in next week for our discussion of the sassy, hilarious, epic video for Blank Space.
