Taylor Swift Takes Home CMT Awards

Taylor Swift was shocked when she won video and female video of the year awards at the CMT Awards last night. The 18-year-old walked on stage bare foot and said, “Are you sure?  Are you serious?”

Swift won the award for her new song “Our Song.” “I wrote that song in the 9th grade for a talent show. I never thought it would be on an album, never thought I’d record it, never thought it would be a single, never thought it would be No. 1 and certainly never thought it would win video and female video of the year,” she said.

 

She later explained why she went barefoot. “I walked by Faith Hill and I was like, ‘This hurts so bad.’ And she was like, ‘Take them off,’” Swift told People magazine. “Faith Hill told me to. So I did it.”

 

Swift also took to the stage to perform her new song “Picture to Burn.”
