Last night, the 2023 Video Music Awards was held at New Jersey’s Prudential Center. Throughout the night, the celebrities and musicians were having a blast watching each other perform and win. Yet, as the VMAs held a crowd livestream on YouTube, people immediately discovered that Taylor Swift was stealing the night.
Not only did Swift win a ton of awards, including the coveted Video Of The Year for “Anti-Hero,” but she also let her wild side out and had a blast. A few years ago, Swift was given the nickname “Drunk Taylor” by her fans, after a video of her singing to “You Need To Calm Down” at an event went viral.
Swift could be seen grabbing a drink from the server. She danced and stood up for nearly all the performances. She even reportedly lost a diamond out of a piece of jewelry and had to get help finding it.
