Taylor Swift and Def Leppard to do joint CMT taping
Can you believe that?
You might be hip to the CMT Crossroads series, which pairs a country artist with a non-country artist. They’ve had John Fogerty with Keith Urban; Kelly Clarkson and Reba McEntire; Joss Stone and LeAnn Rimes; Robert Plant and Alison Krauss; and Maroon 5 and Sara Evans.
The latest pairing is young fresh Taylor Swift and the not-as-young (or fresh) Def Leppard (Pour Some Sugar On Me.)
“Every time I’ve seen Crossroads on CMT I’ve always thought, ‘If I ever get to do one of those, it HAS to be with Def Leppard!,’ so this is really a dream come true for me,” Taylor said in a statement.
“I have been screaming the words to Def Leppard songs for years…so it’s amazing that I’m going to get to share a stage with them this year!”
The taping will be here in October, and it debuts Nov. 8.
