By Mike Fleeman

Tonight at the American Music Awards Chris Brown won the award for rap/hip-hop artist of the year but couldn't even believe that out of all of the artists nomminated he would be the one to win. Chris Brown said, "I don't know what to say. I would have given it to Coldplay". Another big artist to win was Kanye West. After his big fiasco last year about not losing no one expected him saying, "I want to give this award to Wayne," but is still dwelling on the past adding in, "If it was last year it would have been my award." Kanye later on performed at the end of the award show. Many others won including Taylor Swift, for female country artist, The Jonas Brothers, for breakout artist of the year, Rihanna winning two awards for pop/rock female artist and female soul R&B artist, and many others. The Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus, Taylor Swift, Christina Aguilera, Beyonce, and more, making this years American Music Awards a great one.

Taylor Swift's Fascination With Fairy Tales Comes Through on New Album

I read an article on CMT.com about Taylor Swifts new album. Her new album, Fearless, released November 11, 2008. Taylor talks about how fascinating fairy tales are since they are so different from reality. That you tell yourself that one day your 'prince' will come sweep you off your feet but instead you have to deal with being cheated on, and break-ups. On Taylor's new album her songs talk about hardships in relationships, but also about her best friend, and her mom. On her new album you can find a couple main themes. "Yeah, I'm fascinated by the theme of love and kissing and breaking up and fairy tales and boys. That's what I love to write songs about." Taylor recently had a break-up with Joe Jonas of the Jonas Brothers and just in time for her album she wrote a song about it, and did a last minute recording session to get it on the CD. In this article she talks about how much of a hopeless romantic she is and how it shows in some of her songs. " I think the perfection of love is that it's not perfect."
