Unsurprisingly, Taylor Swift cleans house at the American Music Awards
Taylor Swift swept six out of the six categories she was nominated for at the 2022 American Music Awards

The reign of Taylor Swift continues. She’s been a dominant force essentially from the moment she stepped on the scene, but the last two-plus years have been a particularly hot streak with three critically acclaimed original releases and two blockbuster re-recordings of prior albums. This incredible success story was reflected at last night’s American Music Awards, where Swift swept six out of the six categories she was nominated for and extended her lead as the most-awarded person in AMAs history with 40 wins.
Throughout the night, Swift picked up trophies for favorite music video (for All Too Well: The Short Film), favorite female pop artist, favorite female country artist, and both favorite pop album and favorite country album for Red (Taylor’s Version). (If the latter seems like a bit of a cheat to you, well, remember that these are fan-voted awards.) The singer also took home the top prize for Artist of the Year.
