Taylor Swift drives fans wild as they think a country legend will be on her album after Grammys ‘clues’

 Taylor Swift has driven her fans wild as many think a country legend will be on her next album after finding ‘clues’ from her Grammy Awards appearance.

The 35-year-old megastar – who was shut out of any wins despite six nominations –  was on stage on music’s biggest night to present the award for Best Country Album which she handed to Beyonce.

As she made her name in the genre, she paid tribute to prior winners as she said: ‘It is an honor that has gone to great artists who I admire so much, like The Chicks, Johnny Cash, Loretta Lynn, George Strait, Faith Hill, Vince gill, Alison Krauss….’

Then after a pause, she let out a sweet sigh with a smile before saying: ‘… and Shania Twain.’ 

Swifties definitely took note of the inflection of her voice and the slight giggle as many flocked to X (formally Twitter) to share their theories that the 59-year-old country legend Shania will be appearing on her upcoming ‘Taylor’s Version’ re-recording of her debut, self-тιтled album.

On Taylor fan account wrote: ‘[eyes emoji] Taylor Swift added an emphasis on Shania Twain when listing off previous Grammy winners of the Best Country Album!

‘—Fans have speculated about a possible collaboration on a “Taylor Swift (Taylor’s Version)” vault track.’

Another fan said: ‘btw taylor 100% secured a shania twain feature for debut tv like her little giggle was EVIL.’ 

A third fan shared a .GIF of Sofia Vergara raising her eyebrows with the caption: ‘shania twain featured on debut (taylor’s version)? the way she said it… [upside-down face emoji]’

Taylor has famously been re-recording her old albums due to a very public feud with Scooter Braun over her old record label, Big Machine Records, owning her masters.

Of course, fans will remember that Scooter and Taylor had a huge public fallout in 2019 after he shelled out $300m on the rights to her first six studio albums.

At the time, Scooter was the new owner of Taylor’s record label, Big Machine Records.

Taylor, who is dating NFL champ Travis Kelce, has long claimed to be the victim – maintaining she begged to buy the rights to her music in the run-up to its 2019 sale and only found out about it when it was announced.

At the time, Shake It Off singer Taylor claimed she was blindsided by the deal.

In a lengthy Tumblr post, the Grammy winner accused Scooter of ‘incessant, manipulative bullying’ and claimed that he and Big Machine Records founder Scott Borchetta both knew what they were doing with the deal.

She wrote: ‘Controlling a woman who didn’t want to be ᴀssociated with them. In perpetuity. That means forever.’

She then announced she would re-record the songs on the six albums she made for Big Machine, calling them ‘Taylor’s Versions,’ which she has already begun with both Fearless and Red.

Scooter sold his company, Ithaca Holdings, and the Big Machine catalogue two years later to South Korean Entertainment conglomerate HYBE for $1 billion.

Currently only 2017’s Reputation and her debut album – which was released in 2006 –  are left to be re-released.

As her first album was a full-on country album, no doubt Shania would be a perfect fit.
