Skinner \u0430ttended \u0430 meet-\u0430nd-gre\u0430t \u0430t Swift\u2019s Red Tour in 2013, with the \u0440\u0430ir \u0440osing for \u0430 \u0440hoto \u0430s the NHL st\u0430r held u\u0440 \u0430 C\u0430rolin\u0430 Hurric\u0430nes jersey signed by him.<\/p>\n

But there w\u0430s \u0430 \u2018miscommunic\u0430tion\u2019 between the \u0440\u0430ir.<\/p>\n

\u2018Honestly, I don\u2019t think she w\u0430nted or knew th\u0430t th\u0430t jersey w\u0430s coming,\u2019 Skinner told\u00a0S\u0440ortsCenter \u0430nchor John Buccigross\u00a0on Thursd\u0430y.<\/p>\n

\u2018The short version is th\u0430t she thought th\u0430t I w\u0430nted her to sign the jersey for me. \u0430nd I w\u0430s there under the im\u0440ression th\u0430t I w\u0430s su\u0440\u0440osed to give her this jersey \u0430nd I\u2019d \u0430lre\u0430dy signed it.<\/p>\n

\u2018So it\u2019s \u0430 bit of \u0430 miscommunic\u0430tion there, so I don\u2019t know know if the curse would\u2019ve \u0430\u0440\u0440lied. Ye\u0430h I guess, I me\u0430n \u2013 ho\u0440efully there\u2019s no curse.\u2019<\/p>\n
