Taylor Swift cleaned up at the American Music Awards as she swept up no fewer than six gongs – overtaking icon Michael Jackson.
She is now the most decorated artist in AMA history on a night where she celebrated victory over her former record label who appeared to attempt to block her performing her classic hits.
The megastar now has 29 awards to her name, overtaking MJ’s 24-award haul before the night was even half way through.
She claimed not only Artist of the Year and Artist of the Decade, but Favourite Pop/Rock Album for Lover and Favourite Female Artist as well.
