CMT - Have they compLETEly lost their minds???

Alright, this post has been stewing for a while.  I've been trying to figure out how to put my thoughts into words about this for about a month now.  But I think it's time to let it all out.  Let's start here - has anyone else seen this?!

Taylor Swift’s Crossroads 
7-Jul-2008
Written by: Melanie Sutrathada 

Taylor Swift will be appearing on “Crossroads” with Def Leppard. 

Country singer Taylor Swift will have her “dream come true” in October when she films a new episode of 
CMT Crossroads, which is based on pairing country acts with stars from other genres. 

In the show, she will team up with her all-time favorite rock band, Def Leppard, who rocked the charts in 1983 with their album, 
Pyromania

Swift claims that she has been a big fan and has been screaming the words to their songs for years. 

“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!’” the multi-platinum country sensation says enthusiastically. 

According to 
OK! Magazine, the unlikely pairing will film the show in October, although the episode will not air until Nov. 8. The episode will occur in Nashville and will be filmed in front of an invitation-only audience. 

ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!?!?!  I don't even know what to say about this......STILL!  I mean, where do I begin?!  It's a mockery!  I've never had a problem with Crossroads.  I mean, Heart and Wynonna - that's a great idea!  And Sugarland with Bon Jovi - now that was fun.  Their energies and sounds were amazing together.  But stupid ass Taylor Swift with DEF FRIGGIN LEPPARD?!?!  What on EARTH is country about THAT?!?!  It literally makes me nauseous.  Whoever thought of this should be fired.  FIRED!!!

Ugh.  A mockery I say!
