Taylor Swift Named Artist of the Year

NARM [National Association of Recording Merchandisers] will honor Taylor Swift, Big Machine Records, with our Artist Of The Year Award during the Awards Dinner Finale at the 2010 Convention. This past year, she became the youngest artist ever to win both the CMA Entertainer of the Year and the Grammy Award for Album of the Year (and the first female solo Country artist ever to win the Grammy honor). Her 2009 release, “Fearless,” reached double-Platinum in just four weeks and was also voted 2009’s Album of the Year by both the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country Music. She is the top-selling digital artist in music history and had the No. 1 best-selling album in any genre of music in both 2009 and 2008. Her career record sales have already topped 13 million.

Taylor Swift Celebrates Four #1 Songs With Dinner & Friends

Last night, Taylor Swift celebrated her four latest #1 songs with friends, family, and record execs-including Big Machine Records President Scott Borchetta. The country starlet celebrated the success of “”Should’ve Said No,” “Love Story,” “White Horse” and “You Belong With Me” with a 3-course dinner at Maggiano’s Little Italy.

“We’re here to honor some of the incredible accomplishments of our friend Taylor Swift,” Borchetta said before explaining that in the last year Swift had gone platinum in countries including Taiwan, Canada, Australia, Great Britain and Japan. “‘Love Story’ cleared the way for her to go around the world … You can not buy a ticket to see Taylor, so unless you know her dad, you aren’t getting in. She’s all sold out.”

Taylor has certainly had quite a year. Fearless is the most awarded album in history.

“I just hope you know how happy you’ve made me,” she said. “I never expected I would get to stand up at awards shows as much as I have over the last year for this album. I’m so happy I was allowed to make the album I made. And, I’m proud of the people this happened to along with me. This was not wasted on us, we all appreciate it so much. We’ve had a lot change for us. I’ve seen a lot of you get new cars, but other than that, you’re the same people I’ve always known,” she joked.

Taylor must have flown home just in time because she was seen at the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas at the beginning of the week.

Stars React to their ACM Nominations

After the ACM Award nominations were announced, stars were quick to react to hearing their names called.

Randy Houser is nominated for Video of the Year for “Boots On.”

“This is pretty cool to be acknowledged by the ACM’s like this. ‘Boots On’ was a big song for me and the video was a big part of it. That video could have stood on its own as a YouTube phenomenon and it would have been awesome; I just got lucky enough that Drake was singing my song. To receive this much national recognition for it is more than I ever dreamed of.”

Darius Rucker is nominated for Male Vocalist of the Year.

“My management called and told me to turn on the TV to The Early Show, and I couldn’t believe they read my name. I feel so blessed to have been embraced and considered a contender in this format. I’m in the same category as George Strait, Keith Urban, Brad Paisley, and Kenny Chesney. Wow.”

Lady Antebellum nabbed 7 nominations, and they took to their Twitter to respond.

Were flipping out about the ACM nominations!!!! So honored and humbled. Taking off now for NYC, Today show tomorrow. Love u all! -lady a

Miranda Lambert is nominated for several ACM’s, and she also took to Twitter.

Wow. What a great way to start the day….Reba and Blake Shelton on national tv saying my name 3 times for ACM nom’s. Ecstatic!!!!

Taylor Swift was nominated for Video, Female Vocalist, & Entertainer of the Year, and Tweeted her joy.

Getting ready in my room, singing my thoughts. Super annoying new habit of mine. Today it’s “I love ACM nominations I love ACM nominations”.

David Nail Tweeted his excitement over his nomination for “Red Light.”

don’t know whether to cry, scream, call my folks, call my wife, shower, or go suit shopping! Holy &$#@!

Congrats to all of the nominees!!!!

Taylor Swift Spotted at the Haiti Relief Concert in Nashville

A special thanks to our friend “Kuntrynut” who spotted Taylor Swift after the Haiti Relief Concert at the Ryman in Nashville on the 27th.

Taylor Swift didn’t perform at Big Kenny’s Haiti Relief Concert @ The Ryman last night, but she was there hanging out-we caught her leaving the building. Pics are a little blurry-but people were running everywhere trying to get an autograph. She didn’t sign or stop to talk, but waved to the fans once she was inside the car! I thought she was still over in Japan/Australia, so it was a suprise to see her in town last night!
