Taylor Lautner Wishes He Could Change One Thing About His Relationship With Taylor Swift

In 2019, Taylor Swift released a diary entry about the controversy, which read, “If you had told me that one of the biggest stars in music was going to jump up onstage and announce that he thought I shouldn’t have won on live television, I would’ve said, ‘That stuff doesn’t really happen in real life.’ Well…apparently…. It does.”

Lautner couldn’t believe it either, though he also admits he couldn’t actually hear what was happening “five feet” in front of him. “I can barely hear it. I can’t see them. I’m just assuming that this whole thing was a practice and rehearse skit,” he said on the podcast. “Because why else would Kanye West be jumping up on the stage interrupting Taylor Swift? Just didn’t make sense.”

He continued, “If you look back at it, I’m actually caught, like, laughing and like giggling out. I’m like, Oh, I can’t hear them, but this is probably really funny right now. He jumped off; she finished. The second she turned back around and I saw her face for the first time. I was like, Oh…that wasn’t good.”

Though the relationship lasted only a few months, Lautner was the inspiration behind Swift’s 2010 hit song “Back to December.” As one TikTok user replied to the podcast clip, “She goes back to December all the time but he goes back to the 2009 VMAS all the time.”
