The list is impressive, but incomplete -- here is a list of other Grammy winners to round out the season.
Adele
Arguably the most influential woman in music today, British singer Adele is a necessity for this show. Put side by side with Taylor Swift, and the show would be highlighting the two most popular, most powerful and most iconic songwriters currently on the radio. Given her story -- a scorned girl who turned her pain into musical gold, who is now happily married and pregnant -- the tales that Adele would tell on the show would be almost as powerful as her songs and voice.
Lady Gaga
Not only would her "little monsters" tune into to hear her personal stories, but even haters of Lady Gaga would be intrigued to see the style and pop diva stripped down and face-to-face in the VH1 setting. Without lavish costumes and left with a stage, a microphone and a piano, Stefani Germanotta could remind everyone of her musical talent and share the truth behind her name and controversial fashions. It has been a while since new music was released by the always shocking celebrity, and this could be the perfect forum to remind fans of what she does best and possibly share some new music to come.
Kelly Clarkson
With pop stars Christina Aguilera (who was on "Storytellers" in 2010) and Britney Spears facing off as reality judges on singing competitions, original "Idol" winner Kelly Clarkson would be a timely addition to the VH1 roster. Considering that the original "American Idol" winner can talk about singing competitions both boosting her career, and recently plaguing it by joining the celebrity roster of the failed "Duets" this past summer. On top of reality show antics, Clarkson has a superb voice and a laundry list of man-eating anthems that would make for an entertaining evening.
Beyonce
With or without daughter Blue Ivy, and with or without hubby Jay-Z (who had his turn on the show in 2009), fans love to hear everything about Beyonce Knowles. Stripping her down to an acoustic and intimate setting would provide the type of access fans of her work rarely get. She may have started as the daddy's girl lead singer of a girl group, but Beyonce has proven to be a powerhouse of music, with a voice that continues to surprise many. With stories about breaking up a family group and singing for the President, this episode could go on for hours without anyone missing a beat.
Long gone are the days of all-male seasons of VH1's "Storytellers." 2005 and 2009 may have been void of female singers, and it is time that 2013 combat that injustice. Given the current trends in music, it would be no surprise to have an all girl roster for the VH1 mainstay's season. Taylor Swift, Alicia Keys, and Pink are already confirmed, but these fellow Grammy winning gals would round out an amazing season. Who else would you like to see on the "Storytellers" stage? Sound off below.
