Rollingstone.com is reporting about Taylor Swift and Def Leppard’s recent performance of “Pour Some Sugar on Me” at the CMT Music Awards. Even though I was impressed by the performance, many thought Taylor’s opening line sounded ‘breathless.’
“What a lot of people don’t know, because they’re not supposed to, is, she was up for five awards; two of them with us, and three on her own,” Def Leppard’s frontman says. “She won three of them, and about a minute before we started that song, she had just picked up an award. So, after she accepted the award, she had to run down the stairs, run back to her dressing room, and change her clothes.”
“Literally, she’s running up the ramp, trying to put her in-ear monitoring in and clip the pack to the back of her skirt, so she can try to sing this thing,” says Elliott. “She was really a busy girl that evening. All we had to do was watch, and then wander out and get ready to perform this song. People said she was a bit breathless on the first line, and that’s why she was.”
Check out Taylor and Def Leppard in the latest CMT Crossroads in stores now.
