Mega superstar taylor swift taking the stand in court and in blunt testimony describing details about an alleged groping attempt. We have the latest on the trial. Shake it off, shake it off taylor swift shakes it off in a fair free way, but she was feisty and defiant in an hour long showdown. Taylor seemed a lot more relaxed than yesterday and seemed confident and i think ready and prepared for what was going to happen today. She was called by the attorney for a former radio d. J. , the man she said groped her back side at her concert that was captured in this photo leaked to tmz. This is a photo of his hand up my dress. It was long enough to be sure it was intentional. Swift used a threeletter word that we wont broadcast so many times it was hard to keep count. It was probably on purpose. She had this phrase that they clearly practiced. That phrase must have been something they believe would work. Its visceral. When she said he grabbed a handful of my bare ass, jurors saw that in their head. We know that imagery or language is remembered. It moves people. Mueller sued swift said he ruined his radio career. He maintains there was never any inappropriate contact except for perhaps bumping hans, arms and ribs as they moved to pose for the photo. Swift seemed annoyed by that saying he did not touch my rib or my arm. He did not touch my hand. She grabbed my bare it was a Clear Strategy to repeat her Strategy Early and often. She wanted to paint a picture that said this was not okay. This is not just like a cute little cheeky butt grab. This was Sexual Assault and not okay. Im going to keep reminding him of that. When muley sued swift, swift sued back alleging assault and battery. She sued for damages that could total three million dollars, but she cowner sued for just 1. Anything more will go to charity. She is spending nine daying in court to fight this. She thinks its important. When she told her photographer she had been grabbed, they knew she was talking about mueller. He claimed his colleague was at swifts show that night and said haskell demonstrated how he put his arms around her, hands on her bottom. Could it be a case of mistaken identi identity . Andrea swift said there is no way i would do that. Taylor said there is no way. It was frustrating. At least they got to talk to them. He tried to pass this off on you. How does it make you feel . Angry. Again, i think of taylor swift as a little sister because she was 13 the first time i met her. Its disgusting. Swift also testified there is no question the man who allegedly assaulted her is mueller and not haskell. I have a 3d recreation in my brain. I know there are faces i recognize from the last couple of days. Swifties have lined up early for the front row seats. We can handout passes for the morning and afternoon if you want it. Even drawing in a couple of bieber fans. We were here to see the taylor swift thing, but we were here for a Justin Bieber concert and it got canceled. We were close by and wanted to come support her and possibly see her. Across the street from the courthouse, the coworkers are crafting messages for swift and post it notes. I hope she knows she has support and a group of women who love what she does and know that we have got her back. Swifts testimony comes a day after her mother andrea was on the stand. Yesterday he calls mom and today he calls taylor. Why put them on so early . This is unconventional. Jurors decide cases early and you need to put on your best people right away. Putting on a crying mother and a celebrity who knows how to connect with the audience as the next two witnesses, i cant offer a good explanation and think its not a good strategy. Swift said the first person she told was her mother, andrea who was too sick to be in court today. Her mother testified when she saw that photo, i knew something horribly wrong was going on, singling out mueller in the courtroom. He sexually assaulted her. That guy. Swifts testimony was unwafering too. My skirt is lifted in that photo and shows the exact moment of the alleged grab. Muellers attorney asked swift about the photo. Why isnt the front of your skirt somewhere else. He said because my bottom is on the back of my body. They paid close attention. Did you have a good look at the jury . They watched her intently. Some of the jurors throughout have been taking notes. There was laughter when she was funny. She had sarcastic humor and that got chuckles and smiles. She knew what she wanted the jury to hear. This is the story i am going to tell. Mueller is suing for lost wages and to restore his reputation. His body language is much different than taylor swifts. He seemed rigid and didnt seem to look at taylor or his lawyer. He was squarely facing the front. At one point his lawyer came over to talk and david didnt turn around to look at them. He stayed positioned where he was. The Radio Station executive testified he fired mueller baize his story kept changing and the photo and an angry phone call from team swift. The jurors are starring to make up their minds. They are not supposed to deliberate yet, but i bet they are making decisions and sometimes they chat a little early. Absent a shock, this case is starring to take a dleairection that will be hard to turn around. Here said i dont know anything about mr. Mueller. What he did was despicable and horrifying and shocking. This lawsuit is symbolic. She is doing it to draw greater attention to Sexual Harassment and assault and women who have been through what she said she has been through. And her supporters said they are glad she is standing up. Taylor swifts testimony was powerful. A little sassy, but just the right amount. Im supporting her and this traumatic experience she is going through. You know the event. Thats the main reason i wanted to come is to get that experience. Its kind of a big case. I think for womens rights. I think thats awesome. By representing women who have been sexually harass and assaulted and you probably will not find a singing woman in the Music Industry who has not been sexually harassed or assaulted at time or another. By giving that voice to put in stark terms, its a great look for her and an important statement to make. Even though the trial is expected to last a few more days, its hard to contemplate any other witness filling in any better. For night line in denver. The team behind the marvel universe. How the circus is getting a super hero makeover. And later, running along for the motorcycle chase. Dare devils stopped for reckless driving. My 3month old business. Plus. What if this happened again . I was given warfarin in the hospital, but wondered, was this the best treatment for me . So i made a point to talk to my doctor. He told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots. Eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Eliquis had both. And that turned around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if switching to eliquis is right for you. Do yno, not really. Head shoulders .
