Taylor Swift dominated the 2013 Billboard Music Awards held last night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

During one of her eight acceptance speeches she joked, “To the fans who come to the shows and buy the albums, I just want you to know this one thing: You are the longest and best relationship I’ve ever had.”

Her wins included Top Artist, Billboard 200 Album of the Year for ‘Red,’ Female Artist of the Year, Country Artist of the Year, Country Album of the Year, Country Song of the Year and Top Billboard 200 Artist.

Taylor was seated in the front row next to on-again, off-again Bieber girlfriend Selena Gomez. When Jennifer Lopez took the stage to perform, the two young entertainers got on their feet and danced.

Swift delivered a memorable and elaborate performance of her hit ’22′ that began backstage and featured several dancers, a bicycle ride and lots of red balloons. Check it out below:

Taylor Swift Still Fuming at ‘Hellbound’ Tina Fey and Amy Poehler

In the April 2013 issue of Vanity Fair, Taylor Swift reveals that she is still feeling the burn over Golden Globe inspired jokes that poked fun at her lack of dating skills.

Co-hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler double teamed the country singer, warning her to stay away from celebrity trophy presenter Sam Fox, the son of Michael J. Fox.

Katie Couric apparently sympathized with her pal Taylor, and shared this quote following the incident, “There’s a special place in hell for women who don’t help other women.”

Swift told VF, “I can laugh at myself. But what it ended up adding to was this whole kind of everyone jumping on the bandwagon of ‘Taylor dates too much.’”

She was also quick to point out that she has only had two boyfriends since 2010: Conor Kennedy of the famous Hyannis Port Kennedys and One Direction boy band singer Harry Styles.

Amy Poehler heard about the new interview and decided to weigh in. The comedic actress claims she is a feminist and “felt bad” if her joke upset Taylor. She then poked fun at herself, “That being said, I do agree I am going to hell. But for other reasons. Mostly boring tax stuff.”

As for Tina Fey, she thinks Swift should lighten up. “It was just a joke, like two of your aunts — two of your old lady aunts — teasing you at the Thanksgiving table. That’s all it was.”

Couple Alert: Taylor Swift and Tom Odell at Groucho Club in SoHo

Taylor Swift hooked up for a date Thursday night in London with British singer Tom Odell.

She was seen chatting it up with the 22-year-old performer backstage at the 2013 Brit Awards the previous evening, where he won the Critics’ Choice award, a prestigious honor previously bestowed upon Jessie J and Adele.

Odell is a relative newcomer in the music business, having studied at the Brighton Institute of Modern Music before signing with Columbia Records. With two singles under his belt, he is set to release his debut studio album ‘Long Way Down’ on April 15, 2013.

Swift, who performed ‘I Knew You Were Trouble’ during the high-profile O2 Arena event, was nominated for International Female Solo Artist but that award went to Lana Del Rey.

Dressed last night in casual clothes for their night on the town, the couple started out in a Hackney, East London pub before moving on to the Groucho Club in Soho.

The country singer ended a two month relationship with 19-year-old Harry Styles, a member of the boy band One Direction, in January. Staying true to form, Swift mocked Styles during her recent Grammy performance. In a British accent she said, “So he calls me up and he says ‘I still love you’ and I’m like, ‘I’m sorry but I’m BUSY opening up the Grammys and we are never getting back together.’”

After Taylor performed Wednesday night at the Brit Awards, Styles managed to play nice when asked to critique his former girlfriend. He acknowledged, “She’s a great performer and she always performs great. She’s good on the stage… because she’s been doing it a long time. She knows what she’s doing… it was just another good Taylor Swift performance.”

Taylor Swift looked amazing in an Elie Saab gown while posing on the red carpet at the 2013 Brit Awards Wednesday at O2 Arena in London.

The black dress featured two sheer leg panels that provided a perfect full length view of her stunning legs.

She presented the first award of the night and was nominated along with Alicia Keys, Cat Power and Rihanna for International Female Solo Artist. The award went to Lana Del Rey.

It seems likely that the country singer caught the attention of ex-boyfriend Harry Styles, of One Direction fame, during the high-profile event. Despite being mocked by Swift at the Grammys, the young musician told a reporter a few days ago, “I’m not worried about seeing her at all. She’s a sweet girl, you know. I don’t have a bad word to say about her.”

Swift took a pot shot at the 19-year-old while performing ‘We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.’ She adopted a British accent mid-song and said, “So he calls me up and he says ‘I still love you’ and I’m like, ‘I’m sorry but I’m BUSY opening up the Grammys and we are never getting back together.’”

They both hit the stage during the evening to perform: Swift sang ’22′ and One Direction provided a rendition of ‘One Way Or Another (Teenage Kicks).’ In the above photo, Harry is on the right, with the white flower in his lapel.
