There were plenty of highlights from Sunday's Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas, but it's hard to deny how many of them pertained to Taylor Swift. Over the course of the evening, Taylor got 360 degrees of support from her friends, her family, and a sweet Calvin Harris. She debuted her killer "Bad Blood" music video, she exchanged phone numbers with Molly Ringwald, and she won a total of eight awards. Keep reading for an in-depth look at what might be one of Taylor's best nights ever.
What better way to walk the red carpet than with a slew of fierce and gorgeous friends?
Any true Taylor Swift fan knows that Ed Sheeran is one of the pop star's nearest and dearest friends. Plus, that red solo cup really did steal the show.
After weeks of teasing us with killer alter egos, the "Bad Blood" video dropped in all its glory. There were so many fierce moments, we almost lost count.
So much adorable PDA, so little time. These two are just so sweet together.
Look at that sweet embrace. Yet another reason Austin Swift is kind of, sort of the man of your dreams.
Another surprising addition to Taylor's extensive list of Hollywood besties! Welcome to the fold, Molly.
There's been a lot of buzz about Taylor's flames and feuds over the past few years, and on Sunday, she was up against rumored enemy Katy Perry and her ex Harry Styles. Taylor beat out Katy for top female artist, and she edged out One Direction (including Harry, of course) in the top Billboard 200 artist category. Oh, and she also won in the general top artist category over both Katy Perry and One Direction.
Here are all the categories Taylor won in: top artist, top female artist, top Billboard 200 artist, top Billboard 200 album for 1989, top hot 100 artist, top digital songs artist, top streaming song (video), and the Billboard Chart Achievement Award.
