Taylor Swift Acceptance Speech - Pop Album Of The Year | 2021 iHeartRadio Music Awards

Thank you so much for this award and for honoring an album that I'm so proud of. I have to say thank you to everyone at iHeart and everyone at Radio who supported Folklore. Folklore was an album that I made in the very beginning of the pandemic. I started writing it and I just feel like it became sort of an emotional life raft for me to pour all my feelings into. I have to say thank you to Aaron Dessner and Jack Antonoff. Your creativity has completely changed my life and I really feel like we're going to be friends forever. I want to say thank you to Beth Garibrandt who took all the photos for Folklore and really helped me create this world that I saw in my head. In the middle of the field, just the two of us taking pictures, it was a really great experience and I couldn't be happier with the album artwork. I have to say thank you to the fans for making this album what it was because we all needed to escape into stories, whether it was movies or TV or film or music and the fact that you chose this album, I am so honored by that and you really wrapped your arms around it the way that someday we'll get to wrap our arms around each other when we see each other again. So I'm sending you the biggest hug just for you. I love you. Hey guys, thanks so much for watching. Did you like that video?
