Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood Feud? Not True, Says the 'Blown Away' Singer

Carrie Underwood Taylor Swift FeudGetty Images

Prior to the Grammy Awards, rumors were swirling about a so-called "feud" between Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood. Us Weekly reported that Grammy organizers had been instructed to keep the pair separate because "they hate each other." However, a show rep told the magazine that no such requests had been made. Well, CBS reporter Gayle King asked the "Blown Away" singer point-blank if there was any truth behind the reported riff.

"No! Not that I know of," said Carrie, before explaining how rumors like that get started. "Every magazine, newspaper or gossip TV shows, they can just get away with it by saying a 'source says' or 'a friend said' or 'an insider said.' I've read the most ridiculous things about myself when people do that."

To followup, Carrie was then asked her favorite Taylor Swift song. "I really like 'I Knew You Were Trouble,' which is one of her newer songs," she answered. "It sounded a lot different for her. I liked the branching out. She's trying some different sounds."

The feud speculation started last November after the CMA Awards, during which Carrie and her co-host, Brad Paisley, poked fun at Taylor's breakup with 18-year-old Conor Kennedy. Viewers at home didn't see the "22" singer's reaction to the joke. "They don't pan to you if you're not laughing," Taylor explained to the New York Times.

As for the Grammys, the only person the young superstar seemed to have a problem with was her British ex-boyfriend, Harry Styles of One Direction. During her opening performance of "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together," the songstress used a British accent for the quote in the line, "He calls me up and he's like, 'I still love you.'" (Watch below.)

Seriously, I'm an AOL fan but can you drop this story? You've beaten it like a dead horse. If you need help doing research, and finding new angles, I'm available, and certainly better than anyone you have now.

LOL I am sick of this hype. No matter how much the two deny it, AOL keeps hanging on to it like a dog with a bone. Find a new story AOL. Maybe one that you have not run over and over in the last few weeks,

Taylor Swift is a media ***** and a lousy talent. One day her audience (the current 12 year old girls) will realize this and she will gone. I give it 2 years..Max.

You might want to give it 10-15 years. A great talent. Good musician (which is rare in this day and age). She hasn't won the awards she has based on being a media ***** (whatever that means). You can fool a few some of the time, but when you pack people in for concerts over, and over, and over, your doing something right.

i disagree ,the media tells you who you like ..take Holly Williams for instance
i believe her when she sings ''Drink'n" i don't believe Jana kramer when she sings "Whiskey'' auto tune and a pretty face is all it takes to make a country star oh and crappy music row songwriters Holly is real but she'll disappear because she's real ,doing it right?

I live in nashville and we hear all the gossip. If taylor and carrie were at each others throat, Nashville would hear about it first. I love them both but think they are heading to the pop side and both are favored there. G ood luck to both you ladies.............

Thank you, Diamond.

There are some of the nastiest, most hate-filled people on HuffPuff. It makes me sick to read about the lies these dogs spew about Taylor Swift, a girl who worked hard, practiced her music, practiced singing, made good grades in school and set goals.

It\'s as if they can\'t stand to see somebody decent achieve greatness. I read a lot of nasty comments from a bunch of lazy, no-account, jealous pigs.

No, these 2 gals aren\'t out on the streets selling dope or making hateful comments on a stolen laptop. These rotten people should be so lucky to have the talent & determination to achieve their goals as these 2.
