How iconic would it be if "best believe I'm still bejeweled when I walk in the room I can still make the whole place SHIMMER!" played as she walked 💖✨

“I cannot express how unbelievable it is to me that i still get to do this and that you still care” She’s so humble

[@corbinschmidt]

But did you hear her covert narcissism she disguised as altruism, like some kind of congressman?

[@amylee8969]

Oh please! It’s staged. Nobody can win as many times as she does without it being rigged in some way. Yes! People can win fair and square but they have to lose every once in a while. Her winning at everything is not normal. There’s a lot of red flags.

Taylor is really raising the bar for all of the current and future artists to get better in their craft of making their songs and writing lyrics that make total sense.

[@blinkbsss9187]

I want to become a singer one day! So just like Taylor i am starting off with poems! And also writing songs!

[@Karincl7]

Omg the same bs again

[@meyou9176]

Exactly KC

[@guitarpaul3645]

Taylor is a great musician and a good lyricist. But you really need to explore previous generations and types of music to discover that there have been many, many incredible lyricists in the past. Neil Peart of Rush was one of the world's best ever drunmers, and an uber cerebral lyricist writing all of Rush's deep and thoughtful lyrics. Pink Floyd, Queen, Metallica... all amazing lyricists. I would say Taylor is maintaining a standard, not setting a new one.

[@meyou9176]

GP her music doesn't appeal to me. I grew up listening to motown, british invasion, funk, metal, disco. I know music and have played it live, it is a great experience. If you ever have the chance dont pass it up. Peace!

In my 72 years I have seen many talented artists come and go, some in the blink of an eye, others have had Longevity. For me the stand out from all the rest is Taylor Swift. Congrats from New Zealand 🇳🇿 👏 ❤️

[@danplantman62]

I'm 60 and I love when I find more older folks like myself who love Taylor Swift! I've been watching her come along since she begin.And every time she puts out an album she out does herself from the previous one.Award after award. Stadiums filled to capacity since she her 2nd album.And now 3 night Stadiums in each city sold out in less than 2 days..It's just crazy what she can do! Have a good day in New Zealand

[@Filippan00]

I can't stop thinking about her in "Miss Americana" and her saying "this is probably one of my last chances to get this kind of success " or something like that. If only she knew.

Every artist has made a contribution to what we have today. It’s ignorant to label her as better than everyone. There’s other people in the chart who deserve just as much attention and love as her!

[@kaoo3540]

@@amylee8969 I agree, every musician that has walked on the face of earth has impacted at least some people and society itself, but this AMA award was fan-voted, so taylor swift fans win the majority vote in this instance, so there isn’t a doubt that she doesn’t deserve this award more then ever since we gave it to her with votes, essentially. And with her acceptance of this award, she’s embarcing her audience, community, and fans, not the public or general audience because they didn’t necessarily partake in the execution of this award. Thus, we’re not stating she’s better then everyone else, but she is great to us.

I've been listening to her since even before I knew how to speak proper English! I've slept countless nights listening to her songs and spent hundreds of Midnights just watching her music videos or videos of her in general. Pretty much everything in my life has changed since Fearless came out but one thing that's been constant (and shall remain constant Evermore), is my utter adoration of Taylor Swift and her music. Thanks for being a virtual part of my life 😅 you deserve all the praise and all the accolades. ♥️
