Grammy Award Winners

Taylor takes home Top Award

Beyonce might have set a record for a woman by winning six Grammys in one night, but it was Taylor Swift who took home the top award, album of the year for ``Fearless.'' Taylor says she'll be talking about this for the next 80 years.


Swift says she knew her dad and little brother were losing their minds in the living room when they saw her win.
She took home a total of four awards, including country album of the year. But you can only be a first-time winner once, so Taylor Swift was especially excited to win best female country vocalist during the ceremony that took place before the Grammy telecast.


In pure Taylor fashion, she shouted to the audience -- quote -- ``This is my first Grammy, you guys! I mean, this is a Grammy!'' It only took a few more minutes for Swift to win her second award. She and Liz Rose won best country song for ``White Horse.''
