I don't believe this for -1- Minute.

Taylor Swift as Joni Mitchell is an INSULT!  I'm quite sure Joni herself sees it that way.

This is a bigger joke that Diana Ross as Billie Holiday.


There are only two reasons for this casting (if true).

     1.  Taylor Swift is 'currently' popular.  (So were Debbie Gibson & Tiffany)

     2.  Taylor Swift is a singer.

The fact that Taylor Swift is a singer IS The problem.

Logically you'd want an experienced actress who would Lip-Sync to Joni's recordings.

Anything else is a travesty!
