Joni Mitchell has reportedly "squelched" plans for Taylor Swift from playing her in a new biopic based on the book 'Girls Like Us.'

The iconic Canadian musician said that she told to the producer it's just a lot of gossip as he doesn't have the great scenes because all he has got is a girl with high cheekbones, the Mirror reported.

Joni later added that there's a lot of nonsense about her in books, "assumptions, assumptions, assumptions."

There's been speculation over whether Taylor will play Mitchell in a movie about the Canadian singer's life, to which she says it's never ever ever going to happen.
