Two down, six more to go for Taylor Swift.
The country sweetheart became a double winner early on at the 52nd annual Grammy Awards pre-telecast, streaming live now at Grammy.com.
Swift won for Female Country Vocal Solo, and unlike many winners, she was actually on hand to accept her award. “This is my first Grammy, you guys,” a genuinely shocked Swift said. “This is a Grammy!”
She thanked the other nominees and the voters who “thought it would be a good idea” to give the award to her.
Later she picked up Best Country Song for “White Horse” with her writing partner Liz Rose.
The main show, which will reveal the winners for the big awards like Album of the Year, Record of the Year, and Song of the Year, begins at 8pm EST on CBS.
haha she actually showed up to the pre-show. How nice.
