Taylor Swift Stood Up at the ACM Awards

Written by Kelly Bandas on April 2, 2012 – 7:33 am -

22-year-old country music star Taylor Swift is no stranger to walking away a winner from The Academy of Country Music Awards, but one thing she’s not used to is waltzing down the red carpet without a date!

The 2012 Entertainer of the Year award winner had previously extended an invitation to 18-year-old cancer patient Kevin McGuire to attend the ceremony as her “plus one”, but because of complications due to his illness, the high school football start was forced to be admitted to the hospital on Saturday.

Swift took to her Twitter page to express her disappointment over not getting to meet Kevin in Las Vegas,

Just talked to Kevin McGuire. He’s not well enough to join me at the ACMs. Please keep him in your thoughts. I’ll make it up to you, Kevin!

What a bummer!  We hope Kevin gets to meet Taylor sometime soon – maybe a personal trip to his hospital room is in order?  We’re sure seeing the gorgeous country music songstress in a Candy Striper uniform would put a smile on his face!
