AceShowbiz - Taylor Swift was overcome with gratitude as she broke her silence on her six Grammy Award nominations during Thursday night's (November 14) "Eras Tour" concert in Toronto. The 34-year-old singer recently received six Grammy nominations for her latest album "The Tortured Poets Department (TTPD)", and a duet with rising star Gracie Abrams.

Among the nominations, Swift is up for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album for "TTPD", Song of the Year and Record of the Year for "Fortnight", Best Music Video for the same song, and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for "Us" with Abrams.

During her Toronto concert, Swift expressed sincere thanks to her fans, known as 'Swifties', for their unwavering support. "You guys did something so amazing over the course of the last few months. I just mean what you did with embracing 'The Tortured Poets Department', the album. It's truly blown my mind because it's really emotional for me that this album, I wrote it during the 'Eras Tour'."

She elaborated on the secrecy surrounding the album's creation and how keeping it a surprise for fans amplified her excitement. "I wrote that album, made that album, all [while] trying to keep it a secret from you guys. And then announced the album, and then we basically were, like, working really hard to secretly put together a new chapter in the 'Eras Tour' of 'The Tortured Poets Department' and we wanted to surprise you with it, and we did," she continued.

Swift acknowledged that her fans played a crucial role in the album's success, making it her biggest debut week ever and keeping it at number one for nearly four months. "And you guys have been so wonderful about getting into this album and really understanding where I was coming from with it and you made it by far the biggest debut week I've ever had of an album. And you kept that album at number one for nearly four months," she said.

This year, Swift is part of a dominant force of female artists recognized across the top Grammy categories. Female artists, including Taylor Swift, Beyonce Knowles, Billie Eilish, Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter, have filled six out of the eight slots for Album of the Year and Record of the Year. Swift's nomination for Album of the Year marks a historical seventh time, making her the first female artist to achieve this feat.

As the 2025 Grammy Awards approach, airing live on February 2, 2025 from the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, Swifties around the world wait eagerly to see if Swift will clinch another win, perhaps bringing another iconic moment for her and her ever-supportive fanbase.
