Or maybe they want Taylor to look stupid when "1989" fails to meet the expectations Katy I see you...

ok Billboard.

She's very much a fast food popstar. Big, popular, but lacking substance and meant for easy consumption.

Again, not hating, just from what I've acknowledged. I like her country music tho.

Lord deserves it! Stay pressed.

I thought Katy or Bey would get it but I am fine with the Lord snatching.

wow, announced before she gets her third milli debut in a row!

Well all year people were like "omg the sales, Taylor's coming to save the industry." So she was present as a factor in that way.

This is actually hilarious.

Yes, her two month era is bigger than BEYONCE era so far, I don't see what's wrong about that.

Exactly. Everyone knows that Taylor will get the album with the biggest opening numbers of the year and she already has the single with the biggest opening numbers of the year. Taylor's been crushing everyone's sales in the US for 8 years now. Why are some people so surprised? Even Taylor has stopped pulling that surprised face. About time some of ya'll dropped it too.

And that's enough. She needs one hit to be named the woman of the year. Who else but the queen?

Not 'lacking substance' when she is more critically acclaimed than every girl in your avatar.

It's a noted fact in the music industry that Taylor is the best songwriter of her generation. Get with the program.

Taylor achieved more with one single in a couple of months than Beyonce could do with an entire surprise album, countless singles and videos, and a couple tours, too!

Amazing, isn't it?

Katy paying her SB slot
Taylor paying her WOTY award


Wooooo slayage tew much.

wtf it should be BEYONCE and at worst Iggy or Ariana deserve it better than Taylor.

releasing a critically acclaimed record and embarking on two worldwide tours this year wasn't enough Billboard ?
her album went 2X Platinum in a time where artist are struggling to sell 50k first week isn't enough Billboard ?
Bey has the biggest selling female album of the year WW STILL, had the biggest urban hit of the year & the biggest female tour of the year.

this is a slap in Beyoncé face. except her to pay you dust for the rest of her career. thanks for Millenium award tho.
I'm thankful they gave her Millenium Award the last year of their own relevancy and professionalism.
except they praise her I'm not gonna check their ass.

lol without even having an album out yet.

Look at who booked (& payed) their promo in advance

I'm sorry, but everytime Billboard praises Beyonce, you say: BILLBOARD SAYS SO. IT MUST BE TRUE. But when they award someone else... what a hypocricy

Taylor is the woman of the year

What Beyoncé's GLOBAL tours has to do with Taylor's local song?
