Taylor Swift has a date for the Academy of Country Music Awards.
The country star asked a fan, Kevin McGuire of Somerdale, N.J., to the awards show, The Associated Press reports. McGuire is 18 and has leukemia. His sister started a campaign on Facebook to get Swift to go with him to his prom.
Swift writes in a Facebook post of her own that she can't make it to the prom, but that she'd like for McGuire to accompany her to the awards ceremony April 1 in Las Vegas. She is nominated for three awards.
A spokesman for Swift confirms that she wrote the post. A post on the Facebook page for McGuire thanks her for the invitation.
