Taylor SwiftCountry stars are shining on the red carpet at tonight's Grammy Awards. Taylor Swift, already the winner of two trophies this evening, stopped to chat with E!'s Ryan Seacrest about her whirlwind year.

"Just to be here -- that's a dream I've had since I was a little kid. You just think that stuff is so far out of reach," she says. Set to perform on the broadcast, Taylor eludes to a big surprise appearance .... without divulging any details. "It's so unbelievable to be here at the Grammys because sometimes your heroes come out," she hints.

Word from backstage is that the "hero" will be none other than Stevie Nicks, who's rumored to come out to sing 'You Belong With Me' with the country sensation.

Ryan's conversation turned a bit more serious with Grammy winner Keith Urban (Best Male Country Vocal Performance) and his movie-star wife, Nicole Kidman. Responding to his recent statement in favor of illegal music downloading, during his acceptance speech at the People's Choice Awards, Keith took the opportunity to retract his statement. "It came out wrong," he admits. "I didn't actually mean I want people to steal music. But a lot of people I know buy our albums and turn their neighbors on to it, and then they come to our shows and they become fans. But it came out wrong."
