Taylor Swift's label exec defends Grammys performance

Scott Borchetta, whose Big Machine Records released Taylor Swift’s Fearless, has responded to criticism of Swift’s questionably off-key duet with Stevie Nicks during Sunday’s Grammy telecast, according to The Tennesseean. “Maybe she’s not the best technical singer, but she’s probably the best emotional singer,” he said. “She’s an extraordinary songwriter and her vocal performances are getting better. Everybody is not perfect on any given day.”
