This morning, the president of Taylor Swift’s record label defended her earache-inducing performance at Sunday’s Grammys in an interview: “Maybe she’s not the best technical singer,†he said, but, “this is not American Idol. This is not a competition of getting up and seeing who can sing the highest note.†Kelly Clarkson, a winner of American Idol who can sing way better than Taylor, took issue with his comments and has written an angry blog post.
