Wondering if Taylor Swift won big at the 2025 American Music Awards (AMAs)? The pop icon was nominated in multiple major categories at this year’s American Music Awards, sparking widespread buzz among fans and speculation about a possible sweep. With six nods tied to her Tortured Poets Department era, anticipation ran high ahead of the Las Vegas ceremony.
Here’s what we know so far about Taylor Swift’s AMAs 2025 performance, her nominations, and how the night unfolded.
Taylor Swift snubbed at AMAs 2025
Taylor Swift did not win any awards at the 2025 American Music Awards despite receiving six nominations. She was nominated for Artist of the Year, Favorite Female Pop Artist, Favorite Touring Artist, Album of the Year, Favorite Pop Album, and Collaboration of the Year.
Billie Eilish won all five pop and touring-related categories. Her wins included Artist of the Year and Album of the Year for Hit Me Hard and Soft. Collaboration of the Year went to Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars for “Die With A Smile.”
Swift did not attend the May 26 event at Fontainebleau Las Vegas. She has not made any public statement about the snub. In the lead-up to the show, fans promoted voting efforts online. Many pointed to Easter eggs on her official store site that hinted at AMAs-related announcements.
Before 2025, Swift had earned a record 40 AMAs, making her the most-awarded artist in the show’s history. Her last appearance at the ceremony was in 2022, where she won six trophies. The AMAs did not take place in 2023 or 2024.
In 2025, Swift has mostly stayed away from public events. She skipped the iHeartRadio Music Awards in March but shared a video message after winning nine awards. These included Tour of the Century and Favorite Pop Album. Her last major appearances were at the 2025 Grammy Awards in February and the Super Bowl, where she supported her partner Travis Kelce.
