20-year-old Taylor Swift trumps Beyonce and Lady Gaga in the Album of the Year award at the 52nd Grammy's which was aired live from the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

Taylor Swift bagged the top plum of the night, the Album of the Year award for Fearless. The 20-year-old also scooped the Grammy in the best country album category, best female country vocal performance for her single “White Horse” and the best country song category for the same track.

Good thing Kanye West did not appear after Swift received the most prestigious award of the night (CLICK HERE TO WATCH TAYLOR’S ACCEPTANCE SPEECH).
