Taylor Swift was the most nominated female artist at the 2023 Billboard Music Award, and claimed over 10 trophies.
Swift said in an acceptance speech recorded from her Eras tour “Well, this is unreal. The fact that you guys have given me 10 Billboard Awards — I’m talking to the fans, specifically — none of this happens without you,”
Taylor continued “Billboards base everything off of what you are listening to and what you’re passionate about. And I’m so honoured that this year you made the tour, The Eras Tour, so magical. You went and saw the movie, you cared about my rerecords. I just, like, I love you so much. I feel like the luckiest person in the world to have you in my corner and caring about the music that I make. So thank you, thank you, thank you, 10 million times, for this.”
