CMA Awards: Why Did Taylor Swift Mouth The Word "What?" At End Of "Back To December" Performance? (Video)
Why Did Taylor Swift Mouth "What?" During CMA Awards Performance?
At the CMA Awards tonight, Taylor Swift gave an emotional and beautiful performance of her new song, “Back To December.” It has long been rumored that “Back To December” is an ode to her former flame, Taylor Lautner, so it is quite symbolic that she chose to sing it at the CMA Awards tonight.
A strange thing happened at the end of Taylor’s performance at the CMA Awards. Watch the video clip below, and towards the end of “Back To December”, you will see the camera pan out to the audience, and then it goes back to Taylor on stage. She has a blank look on her face and clearly mouths the word, “What?”
The camera man must have noticed this oddity fairly quickly, because right after Taylor mouths “What?”, it cuts straight back to host, Carrie Underwood.
The big question is: Who Taylor was mouthing, “What?” to? Did she see someone in the audience at the CMA Awards? Or was she talking to the camera man?
The whole thing is kind of weird. Watch the video clip below of Taylor Swift’s “Back To December” performance at the CMA Awards to see the incident for yourself…pay close attention to the end of the video.

her fiddle player twittered that she was responding to a standing ovation in the crowd.
Her publicist is trying to say it was a reaction to the overwhelming enthusiasm the audience had towards her performance, but we all know that isn’t the truth, otherwise she would have kept smiling.
According to her bandmate’s twittter:
CMA snow still in my hair- our girl’s reaction to the standing ovation was super priceless..”whaaaa?”
so…it was because she was in awe of the standing ovation!
I think she was upset because she didn’t get the standing ovation. Everyone got a standing ovation, even gwenth paltrow.
She was lookin in the direction Carried Underwood was coming out on stage. I think she was mouthing “what” to her choice of attire. JMO
Swift can’t sing so she stages her songs. Any deviation disturbs the illusion she tries to create. If you think she can sing, try picturing her singing Coal Miner’s Daughter.Loved Little Big Town’s vocal slam of Swift!
maybe someone in the audience said
Joe Jonas was there
There was a streaker in the audience rumor has it because when they did the audience pan the people in back were laughing
go to youtube and type in the search CMAstagemanageraudioleaktaylorswiftwhat another poster said they were there in the high up seats and could see behind the curtain and said taylor through her hands up in the air and stomped off mad!
I truly believe all the way, that Taylor Lautner, was in the audience. I also think thats why Miss Taylor Swift, looked Sooo pussled like she couldn’t believe that he was there watching her, sing that song to him. That makes ALL the sense in the world ! Someone, was trying to tell her that Mr. Lautner was there and Taylor Swift couldn’t hear them telling her that . Thats , why she looked sooo confused also. Patty Beechler. Keep up the Great work, Taylor. You have SOO much God Given Talent, and SOO many other artist are SOO jealous of you Honey. Especially….,Carrie Underwood!!! She trys to act like shes SOO perfect, and shes not, and Never will be. Miss Underwood, will NEVER,……have ALL the TALENT, that you have Taylor. You just keep on being yourself, Taylor Swift. Patty Beechler. God Bless You honey.
