The 2015 Academy Of Country Music Awards, held at the AT&T Stadium on April 19th in Arlington, Texas, brought many surprises along.

Taylor Swift’s mother, who was recently diagnosed with cancer, was the one who introduced the “Milestone Award” to her daughter, Lotus empress Christina Aguilera paired up with Rascal Flatts to perform “Riot” from the country band’s 2014 “Rewind” album, and Nick Jonas brought the pop note to the awards with a medley performance of “Jealous” and “Chains” with duo Dan + Shay (ehhhh, did Dan + Shay outsing Nick or are my ears a complete mess right now?).

The performances and important awards should normally be the highlights of any award ceremony but in this occasion Taylor Swift’s mother introduction speech to the “Milestone Award” was just the ‘it’ moment of the night for me. I was so moved by her speech and I admire the strength and integrity that she showed even though she was given the cancer diagnosis only a few days ago. This ACM award truly meant something special to her daughter and of course she felt like she needed to be there to show her support, but with this speech with showed more than that.

Oh, and who else was disappointed when Taylor said in the last seconds of her acceptance speech; “and to the fans, I will see you right here in this same stadium in a few months”; that she would be there for the “1989” tour and not to “play an exclusive show featuring country songs from my upcoming country album that I will release late this year”? lol. Oh well.

Thoughts?
