Taylor Swift is undoubtedly riding high after her huge sweep at last night's CMA Awards, including becoming the youngest artist -- at 19 -- to ever to take home Entertainer of the Year. Breaking Kenny Chesney's three-year reign in that category, Taylor insists there is nothing but love between the two superstars."I think the first thing that popped into my head was, 'How is this happening to me right now?'" she told Nashville station WKRN immediately after her win. "Kenny hugged me, and that was one of the most amazing things because we'd been texting all day.... we did the whole 'I love you so much no matter what happens tonight,'" she said.
Kenny, who stopped the teenager on her way up to stage to hug and kiss her, won Entertainer of the Year four of the last five years. Nominated in three categories last night, he walked away empty-handed, while Taylor took home the trophy for each of her nominations.

there is definitely no dispute that taylor swift is very talented, however, the talent she was up against was fierce. there was clearly MORE experienced prospects for the categories she won in and I feel her win wasn't based on truly the best in those categories. no disrespect

I think Taylor can write......entertain, NO! I don't know when all the teenagers started picking our entertainers! At least the pretty face SHOULD be able to sing.....she wines! I like her songs, can't stand her face or performances while she 'jigs' on stage...Entertainer?? WHAT IS WRONG with choosing real talent?!
