Taylor Swift won the 2022 Artist of the Year at American Music Awards on Sunday, bringing her grand total awards of the night to six — which is basically all the awards that she was nominated for this year.  

She won three awards for her re-recorded Red, including the 10-minute short film music video of All Too Well, which starred Sadie Sink and Dylan O’Brien.

While accepting the favourite pop album award, Swift said that she “never expected or assumed” that her re-recorded albums would mean anything to fans. She thanked those who helped her spend “hours and hours in the studio, meticulously re-creating” Red. She also showed her gratitude to her “All Too Well” video actors and “I Bet You Think About Me” director Blake Lively and co-star Miles Teller.

“I want to thank all the artists who featured on the vault tracks, Chris Stapleton, Phoebe Bridgers,” Taylor noted. “I want to thank my touring band, who played on this album.”

She also thanked her fans a second time when she returned to the stage to accept the award for the best music video for All Too Well. Swift indicated it was all the support that allowed her to release the 10-minute version and make her short film starring Sink and O’Brien.

The Midnights singer also gave a special shoutout to her close friend Blake Lively, for directing the music video, I Bet You Think About Me.

“I want to thank you guys for making this a possibility for me,” she concluded. “To the fans, I cannot thank you enough. This is so special, thank you!”

Although she was nominated for a number of awards, the Bejeweled singer never hinted that she would be attending the show on November 20, at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. To her surprise appearance while accepting the Favourite Pop Album for Red (Taylor’s Version) was quite a treat for her fans. 

She wore a glimmering gold halter jumpsuit by The Blonds for the night which she paired with her signature red lips.

Along with winning Favorite Pop Album, Taylor took home the award for Favorite Female Pop Artist, Favorite Music Video, Favorite Female Country Artist, Favorite Country Album, and Artist of the Year.
