Surprisingly, Taylor Swift is the artist with the largest number of country music awards in her career. Although she has now focused her attention on pop music, this weekend at the Academy of Country Music Awards, she received the 50th Anniversary Milestone Award.
The highlight of the evening was when her mom, Andrea turned out to be the person handing out the award and introducing her mega-successful daughter with a heartfelt and tear-jerking speech.
She started off with:
I’ve watched this milestone artist from the time she was a tangled-haired little girl growing up on our farm, full of imagination and creativity, until right now, as she prepares for her next world tour,
She then added:
And ever since then, her favorite thing in the world to do has been to write a song, tell a story, play guitar or piano. And I’ve seen those things carry her through every emotion, every experience in her life, good or bad.
She wrapped the speech with tears in her eyes, adding:
Like many of you with children of your own, I am a very proud mom. So I’d like to thank the ACMs for honoring her in this way, but I’d also like to thank the entire music community for taking such good care of her. And to the fans, I know you love her as I love her, and for that I thank you eternally.
It goes without saying that Taylor was also misty-eyed as she got up on the stage to receive the award.
