As all Swifties cheered, and so did her fellow members of the music industry, the Blank Space singer took to the stage and expressed her gratitude. She has always believed that her music and fans have made her a true icon over the years. But in her speech, she didn’t miss the opportunity to mention her dearest friend Lana Del Rey. The 38-year-old American singer had been nominated under the same category as Swift for the awards. Regarding the Summertime Sadness singer, Taylor says, “Lana Del Rey, who is hiding, but I think so many female artists would not be where they are and would not have the inspiration they have if it weren’t for the work that she’s done. I think she’s a legacy artist, a legend in her prime right now. I’m so lucky to know you and to be your friend.”
