2010 Grammy Winners

2010 Grammy winners were announced live from the Staples Center in Los Angeles on January 31, 2010.  Taylor Swift was the night’s big winner, winning Album of the Year, Best Female Country Vocal Performance, Best Country Album for “Fearless,” and Best Country Song for “White Horse.”

“I just keep thinking back to when you’re in second grade and you sing at your talent show for the first time and people joke around and say: ‘Maybe we’ll see you at the Grammys someday,’ and that just feels like an impossible dream,” Swift said. “I just feel like I’m standing here accepting an impossible dream and I thank you so much for that.”
