In related news, Naomi Judd defended Taylor Swift from critics of her last month's Grammy performance. According to People.com, Judd sent a letter to the editor of the Tennessean website, calling Swift "multi-talented" and "a dazzling performer."

Here's one of the cutest parts of Naomi Judd's letter. She said: "When I met her I was impressed by her sincere transparent niceness. Taylor’s a lovely young lady. Having sung many times at the Grammys, I can tell you that the stress and anxiety of performing in front of the world’s top artists in every genre of music is tortuous for even the most seasoned singer."
