Taylor Swift Rules 2013 Music Awards

Taylor Swift proceeded a outstanding year by overriding the 2013 version of Billboard.com's Mid-Year Music Awards sample, which allowed fans to weigh in on their very popular creative persons, pieces of music, albums and presentation of the first six months of the year. After voting formally resolved when June revolved over into July, hundreds of thousands of entries were tallied and the 23-year-old country superstar came out on peak in three key classes,including the coveted First-Half MVP contest.

Swift, whose fourth studio album "Red" scored the biggest debut sales week of 2012 upon its release last October, has spent much of 2013 supporting the full-length on her massive Red world tour, which began in March and will continue through December. The singer has also taken time to perform at ceremonies like the 55th Annual Grammy Awards and the 2013 Billboard Music Awards -- the latter at which she also won the Artist of the Year trophy -- while also collecting more hits like "I Knew You Were Trouble, "22" and "Everything Has Changed" to follow her first Hot 100 chart-topper, "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together." 

Billboard.com fans did their part in recognizing Swift's many achievements over the past six months: she was named First-Half MVP, topping artists like Justin Timberlake and Beyonce handily; "Red," which returned to the top of the Billboard 200 albums chart earlier this year, was bestowed with the 'Favorite Billboard 200 No. 1 Album' award; and the Red tour trumped Rihanna's Diamonds tour to earn the title of the voter's favorite live show on 2013.
