The 19-year-old Taylor Swift opened the Country Music Television awards with a skit about living out her dreams. and pop sensation went a long way toward doing just that by winning video of the year and female video of the year for "Love Story"(click to listen) and by performing with one of her favorite rock bands."I want to thank Shania Twain for always making such theatrical videos, and the fans for giving me video of the year when my whole family is here watching." Swift said tonight in accepting video of the year honors at Nashville's Sommet Center.
Swift won the fan-voted award over Brad Paisley's "Waitin' on a Woman," Trace Adkins' "You're Gonna Miss This," Carrie Underwood's "Just a Dream" and Sugarland s "All I Want to Do."
Her "Love Story" video is an elaborate production with period costumes that echoes the story of Romeo and Juliet."This is for everybody who still believes in love stories, because I do," Swift said earlier, and closed the awards show by performing "Pour Some Sugar on Me" with the British rock band Def Leppard.
