I’ve been meaning to write about the Taylor Swift concert I attended on July 11, when I had to chaperone a major fangurl<\/a> all the way to MetLife Stadium in New Jersey …<\/p>\n

\"chaperone\"<\/a>

Yes, MrB is the fangurl. Click to see on my Instagram account.<\/p><\/div>\n

… but I was lazy about getting all my concert photos watermarked. However, there’s no time like the present to get organized, what with Taylor getting into a Twitter feud with rapper Nicki Minaj. It started Tuesday, after the nominations for next month’s MTV Video Music Awards were announced (amusingly enough, on Apple Music’s Beats 1 radio instead of MTV).\u00a0 Taylor led with nine nominations<\/a> — two for her “Blank Space<\/a>” video and seven for “Bad Blood<\/a>.” One of the “Bad Blood” nominations was for Video of the Year. The other Video of the Year nominees were Beyonce for “7\/11<\/a>“; Ed Sheeran for “Thinking Out Loud<\/a>“; Mark Ronson, featuring Bruno Mars, for “Uptown Funk<\/a>“; and Kendrick Lamar for “Alright<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Nicki’s “Anaconda” video was nominated only for Best Female Video and Best Hip Hop Video.<\/p>\n
