Taylor Swift is beginning National Poetry Month as the “Artist of the Year” for the iHeartRadio Music Awards.
The Eras Tour singer didn’t walk the yellow carpet or appear at the awards show in Los Angeles. The Backstreet Boys’ AJ McLean and N’Sync’s Lance Bass introduced her award at the Dolby Theatre.
“I wanted to say thank you so much to anyone who voted for this award,” the singer said in a recorded video. “To the fans, it’s completely up to you to choose how you spend your time, what concerts you want to go to, what music do you want to make the soundtrack to your life, and to anyone who has included me in those choices, I’m so so so thankful for that.”
