The fact that this is a fan-voted award means so much to me. It&#39;s really felt like the adventure of a lifetime this past year. I cannot believe that it was a year ago at the VMAs that I announced the Midnights album. All I have to say tonight is thank you,&quot; Taylor said during her Video of the year acceptance speech.Taylor also expressed her gratitude to the fans for allowing her to make music of different genres.&quot;I love making pop music. I love making pop music videos. I also love making country music. I love slinking around different genres and the only reason I&#39;m allowed to that is because you, the fans, gave me the opportunity to do that,&quot; she stated in her speech for Best Pop award.<a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2022/11/2/fresh-scoops/taylor-swift-makes-history-after-midnights-songs-203371">READ: Taylor Swift makes history after &lsquo;Midnights&rsquo; songs occupy Billboard Hot 100 top 10</a>&quot;It&#39;s all just one big adventure&nbsp;and it&#39;s all so much fun to challenge myself to make music that&#39;s different than what I made last and I just love you for it,&quot; she added.The global pop star also gave a shoutout to her collaborator Jack Antonoff.&quot;I wanna say I&#39;m really really lucky that I get to write songs with one of my best friends in the world, his name is Jack Antonoff. He is so talented, it is incomprehensible and I am so lucky I&#39;ve been making music with him since we&#39;ve done an album called 1989,&quot; she said in her acceptance speech for the Song of the Year award.<iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-3" src="https://www.instagram.com/reel/CxHjtFGsgZi/embed/?cr=1&v=14&wp=506&rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A3%2C%22os%22%3A740136.4000000954%2C%22ls%22%3A698566.8000000715%2C%22le%22%3A698584%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0" height="880" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-3" scrolling="no" style="background: white; max-width: 540px; width: calc(100% - 2px); border-radius: 3px; border: 1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219); box-shadow: none; display: block; margin: 0px 0px 12px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0px;"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script>Taylor recently wrapped up the US leg of her gigantic The Eras Tour this year.She will also be releasing a concert tour movie this October in the US.&quot;The Eras Tour has been the most meaningful, electric experience of my life so far and I&rsquo;m overjoyed to tell you that it&rsquo;ll be coming to the big screen soon 😆 Starting Oct 13th you&rsquo;ll be able to experience the concert film in theaters in North America! Tickets are on sale now.

To be perfectly honest, this is my most FAVORITE re-record I&rsquo;ve ever done because the 5 From The Vault tracks are so insane. I can&rsquo;t believe they were ever left behind. But not for long! Pre order 1989 (Taylor&rsquo;s Version)&nbsp;on my site,&quot; she announced back in August.
