American Music Awards 2011
Taylor Swift strikes gold at the American Music Awards in LA's Nokia Theatre, scooping the awards for Best Artist and Album in the Country category, as well as the coveted Artist Of The Year award.
She ties with Adele, who also wins 3 awards for Best Pop/Rock Female, Pop/Rock album and Adult Contemporary Artist, but is absent due to her recent throat surgery.
Taylor gushes: 'Thank you so much, oh my goodness, this is amazing!'
