Taylor Swift’s 2019 Billboard Speech

Woman of the decade receiving her award.

[@vickyruth6450]

This is the best thing ever. So many people don't speak out about this stuff this hit really hard for me because as someone who wants to be a singer and has already dealt with people telling me I can't and I wouldn't even make it as I am only 15 it hurts this industry is so ruled by man and it is unfair we need people like Taylor and like Billie that speak out.

[@Bell_Matt]

VickyRuth lol! Keep blaming men for being a shit singer.

[@k.m.5824]

@@Bell_Matt lol u pressed go fight with the wall

[@alejosantacruz7]

Bell Matthew for people like you is that we need artists like Taylor and Billie to speak out

[@teawithtams6596]

It's so different and refreshing to hear a female artist speak so seriously about the music industry. Taylor is making an impact and paving ways for women to be more bold and proud of their accomplishments, and be more assertive and vocal in a male dominated world. Love her.

[@heyitskdan]

this is THE SPEECH

[@mamar9911]

This bring me in tears 😭

[@jennybernardino1718]

I love how Taylor is so confident in herself.. That she is not afraid to praise and lift others. And that's my woman of the decade. 😍😍😍😗😗😗😗

[@k.m.5824]

She killed it Damn .... Yes She did it 💖 more power to you TAYLOR ✨✨✨

[@sampadadeshpande7414]

This brought me to tears. Congratulations, Taylor. You deserve everything you wish and more. So proud of you.

*i cried all the way in, knowing its a decade since i met taylor*

[@aaliyahfoster2705]

But a start of an age

[@purplealchemistofficial]

This speech couldn't have been easy to do. But that's what I admire about Taylor, she know the right time and the right way to speak up.

[@JarryWorld]

What an incredible woman ¡¡¡ speachless¡¡¡

[@beatleswift1]

I LOVE YOU TAYLOR IM SO PROUD 💕💕💕

[@JuveriyaRockzz]

Love her Proud of being a #swiftie She's so amazing , humble and down towards . She's so cute Loved her speech Thank you for uploading this .

[@angelmarie111]

I'm legit crying so hard. Taylor is such a monument in history. She's made her mark on the universe. Her drive and power is something I admire so much. She's willing to fight for people who don't wanna fight for her. She's so selfless and kind. I fell in love with this woman and her music, sitting in a car seat, in the second row of my mom's suburban when I first heard a song from her first album on the radio. She sparked my love and passion for music and creating at such a young age. I feel so strongly that Taylor has made one of the hugest impacts on my life. All I want to do with my life is create and breathe life into a world so damaged. I want to make the world shine and heal the same way Taylor has in her 30 years. If Taylor ever sees this (which I doubt), thank you, from the very bottom of my heart, you have saved my life before and you continue to make me smile and feel inspired when I feel like everything is lost. I've never seen her in concert, sadly. My mom has never been able to afford it and I'm only just able to start working since I turn 16 in 13 days (which is kinda insane). I swear one day ill see her in concert and cry the whole time while screaming every lyric. Thank you, again. Love, Chrissy ♡

[@savvyaranda]

her voice started to become shaky when she started talking about her music being sold from under her i’m sorry proud ❤️❤️

[@matthewchilders2441]

This was such an amazing speech. I can't imagine what it must have been like sitting in that room, cause I felt intimidated just watching it on my phone. She's such a powerful presence.

[@geetanjalipathania3325]

You know what we all swifties love about our queen becoz she is a REAL queen ....She praised every singer and specially lana del Rey👏❤️I AM PROUD TO BE A FAN OF U TAYLOR.❤️❤️💖

[@AshlandB]

People can say what they want about her but she did keep her mouth shut about problems like these for so long and I respect her so much for finally stepping up and making songs like the man.

[@BonoLightier]

I love this woman. It's been a pleasure listening to her music for the past 10 years.

[@Afra_sheikh]

She is The TAYLOR SWIFT....the FEARLESS girl ...and she knows how to SPEAK NOW...because she Have RED power ....1989 is the year when God sent us this beautiful angel on this earth....we got Big REPUTATION...and now millions of her LOVERs are always with her ...❤

[@ashleystewart808]

#teamtaylor You’re such an amazing human. There isn’t another artist more deserving of this award.

[@henryyaboy]

It's so amazing to see how far she has come and how much she has changed and simultaneously stayed SO true to herself. I never imagined and also and hoped and dreamed of her becoming THIS influential and THIS outspoken, courageous, and WELL spoken. All of the times that she consoled me, as I put her newest CD in and listened to an album that could perfectly describe what I was going through in that moment, and rely on her next album to do the same thing, and the next one. THANK YOU TAYLOR SWIFT. What would we do without you. Who would I be? How would *I* have even gotten this far? -Love from your fellow forever Swiftie.

[@mrglasswindowwashing]

Every business owner is told no you can't do that. There's too many other people doing it you'll hear every excuse why you shouldn't do something and that makes any winner want to prove them wrong this happens to men and women it doesn't matter whether you're male or female everyone that wants to accomplish something in life gets told no you shouldn't do it or can't do it a million excuses why you shouldn't do something but please stop saying it's because you're a woman that women are put in their place I don't want to hear that s*** that's tired and worn out and untrue soon as you say women have it the hardest makes you a loser in my eyes you can make all the money have all the fame but you will be punished in ways that really matter for taking such a losing stance
