Taylor Swift Wins Entertainer of The Year: CMA

“Tonight I’m just gonna dance around with my band and my crew and my label,” she told PEOPLE after winning Entertainer of the Year in Nashville Wednesday night.

“I’m going to go hang out with my crew and my band and the people at my record label, and we’re going to hug and dance and jump up and down,” she added later.

“I never imagined that the unattainable thing that I dreamed about could happen to me at 19,” she said. “It’s a lot to absorb. So now the next challenge is to find the next challenge.”

But first things first – where to put her awards.

“I got my first place, so I’m going to put these someplace very, very centrally located!” she said. “I’m not quite sure where. I might have to put up some shelves.”

The Jonas Brothers say ‘Poison Ivy’ isn’t about Taylor Swift

All of you Jonas Brother lovers/Taylor Swift haters out there can jump down off of your high horse! E! is reporting that The Jonas Brothers deny that their newest song, Poison Ivy is a reference to any of their ex-girlfriends, including Taylor Swift.

The lyrics go, “Caught in a nightmare / Can’t wake up / That’s why my ex is still my ex / I never trust a word she says / I’m running all the background checks / And she’s freaking out”.

But Joe Jonas insists they aren’t about Swift, saying he wasn’t even present when the lyrics were written!

“This is really funny because people think this is about something particular but the truth to that is it’s one of the only songs of the record that’s not about a direct personal experience,” Nick said.

“It’s, like, the most general song,” added Kevin.

Boy am I glad we cleared that mystery up. I can sleep in peace now!

Here are some interview highlights.

“Writing songs about people is the only way I know how to do things,” Swift says. “I mean, I can’t wish I hadn’t written a song about someone, because if I hadn’t, that song wouldn’t exist. I just don’t find any joy in writing about things I haven’t been through.”
