The DVD will be available exclusively, at a low price of $11.88, in Wal-Mart stores in the US and Canada, including Sam’s Club and on Walmart.com, and hits shelves the same day Swift and Def Leppard are scheduled to appear on the 2009 CMT MUSIC AWARDS.

Their performance of “Photograph” is also up for both Performance of the Year and Wide Open Country Video of the Year at the CMT MUSIC AWARDS.

Taped before a standing-room only audience in Nashville, Swift fulfilled her “childhood dream” when she walked onstage and performed with Def Leppard. Lead singer Joe Elliott and Swift swapped lyrics on such hit songs as “Photograph,” “Hysteria,” “Pour Some Sugar On Me,” “Picture to Burn” and “Love Story.”

The DVD has special features that include extended and new interviews with the artists, and never-before-seen performances.
