Things got quite emotional on Sunday night when Taylor Swift’s mom, Andrea Swift came on stage and gave a very emotional speech about the singer before presenting her with the Milestone award.
As Taylor’s mom graced the stage, fans and audience alike cheered and stood up for her.
“For many years, I was her constant companion. And I witnessed a young girl with very few friends become one with many, learning to stand up for herself and the things she believes in. Being brave enough to explore her musical curiosity, having a voice against those who hate, and giving of herself to those in need.”
Andrea was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and spoke to the audience by letting them know that she is indeed a very proud mother.
“I am a very proud mom. I want to thank the entire music community for taking such good care of her. And to the fans: I know you love her as I love her. And for that, I thank you eternally.”
