The “Shake It Off” singer, 27, testified that he “latched on to [her] bare ass cheek” while taking photos backstage at her concert at the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado, where Mueller was on assignment for country music station 98.5 KYGO at the time of the alleged incident.

Swift stood her ground during questioning by Mueller’s lawyer, saying, “I am not going to allow you or your client to make it seem like this is in anyway my fault, because it isn’t. He did not touch my rib, he did not touch my arm, he did not touch my hand, he grabbed my bare ass.”
