Smashes all-time American Music Award record, She took the high road as won six American Music Awards
LOS ANGELES: Taylor Swift took the high road as she won six American Music Awards to surpass Michael Jackson’s all-time record, avoiding any direct mention of a bitter dispute with her old record company.
Tylor won the top award, artist of the year, and four others. She was also given an honorary artist of the decade award, taking her all-time total to 29 American Music Awards, organizers said. That easily outstripped the 24 awards picked up by Jackson.
“All that matters to me is the memories that I have had with you guys, with you the fans, over the years,” Swift, 29, told the audience at the ceremony in Los Angeles after performing a medley of her old hits.
