If there's feud going on between Oklahoma's Carrie Underwood and Nashville's Taylor Swift, someone forgot to tell Underwood.

The Checotah native said "no" to reports a feud exists between the two music superstars during an interview with Gayle King on “CBS This Morning” Monday.

"No, not that I know of at least," said Underwood, who won her sixth Grammy for Best Country Solo Performance for "Blown Away" and the song, penned by Josh Kear and Chris Tompkins, won Best Country Song at Sunday's Grammy Awards.

Asked how the idea of a feud got started, Underwood had a quick answer.

She said every magazine, newspaper or TV show "can get away with it by saying a source said or an insider said," she offered. "I've read the most ridiculous things about myself when people do that."

Last Friday, usmagazine.com, citing an insider source, reported Grammy executives were directed to keep the 23-year-old Swift and the 29-year-old Underwood from running into to each other on the awards show. A representative from the Grammys reportedly told the website that no such request was made by either artist.

Asked her favorite Swift song, Underwood named "Trouble."

"It sounded a lot different for her," she said in the interview. "I really like the kind of branching out."

Kinda like the mud wrestling they used to have at Cain's years ago - do that for a charity and it'd be funded forever.

Rita Sherrow grew up with TV. Yes, it was the ever-present “sister” from another techno mother. At first look, it was instant "Like." From then on, the TV had to be on in every room while she studied, elementary school through college. An Air Force brat, she attended school in three states (Oklahoma, Montana and Georgia) and two foreign countries (Germany and Bermuda) and graduated from Broken Arrow High School and the University of Tulsa with a degree in journalism/advertising. She first interned in the advertising world but, when a J-School professor (who also covered politics for the Tulsa World) offered her an internship at the newspaper, she took him up on it. The rest is history. She has served as bridal editor, senior features writer for the women’s section, food editor and is television editor of the Tulsa World. In addition to writing about TV shows and interviewing the stars for “Scene” stories, she also writes a TV column for Weekend and produces the Sunday TV World listings magazine.
