How far will Taylor Swift go to get her Oscar?
Last week she performed at the Academy Museum Gala in front of hundreds of Oscar voters — and Grammy voters.
This morning she participated in a Q&A after an all-guild screening of “Toy Story 5.” Her song, “I Knew It, I Knew You” has been on the charts all summer, and she’s not fooling around.
The screening, held at Disney’s new screening room downtown on Hudson Street, began at 10am. That way, possibly, Taylor could get to the KC Chiefs game in Denver to watch Travis.
There are a bunch of songs in the mix this year for the Oscar besides Swift’s. There’s “How To Write A Song Without You from the underrated gem of a movie, “Power Ballad.” Also, Jennifer Hudson and Andrea Bocelli have a Diane Warren song called “One Right Here,” from “Maserati.” I’m told there’s a song from “La Bola Negra.” There’s also the charming This City May Have Chewed Me Up (But It Hasn’t Spit Me Out)” by Jesse Eisenberg from “The Debut.” There’s also a song from “The Odyssey.”
But Taylor’s going to go full press here. This is just the beginning.
